USMC Cadence

[GTodd]

Hey I found agreat page for you guys and gals (yes now that I am home from OCS I have nothing better to do) The page has video, and mp3 of the various cadence that you will hear when you pt. My advice is pick 2 thta you like and memorize them so that when it is your turn to give cadence when you run you wont fail.

i actually downloaded a ton of cadence off of kazaa and i sometimes run to it. i find that it helps me to keep pace on longer tempo runs.

You cant use cadences with ie dirty words until you are far into the trails and even then wait unitl like the 5th week when the si and ps start loosening up.

Cadence is used when you are double time, when you march from place to place you will use chants usualy the Candidate plt sg will just say left right left, sometimes they will say ..when I say left, and than you reply ...your left foot hits the deck, stuff like that.

Man I hate being home, hay 185 do not get hurt!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So everyone gets a chance to lead cadence? do you just take turns calling it out from formation?

 

[GTodd]

When you are in formation marching from place to place the candidate plt sg will call chants like I mentioned above.

If you are a squad leader during a pt run you will have to start the cadence and than another candidate should take over after a while.
