This 3 part series produced by the Discovery Channel shows what it feels like during the 12
weeks of traing in South Carolina, and ultimately becoming a member of the U.S. Marine Corps.

Bit Torrent is required for downloading.

Making Marines - Parris Island (http://69.50.170.99/sn//torrents/1643/Making%20Marines%20-%20Parris%20Island(1).torrent)

Okay, here are two things I need to warn you before you download this video. Its file size is 1.045 gigabytes,
that is 1045 megabytes overall, therefore broadband internet access is highly recommended for downloading,
anything else will just take forever.

Secondly, the video files are in MKV format. To watch this video it would require installation of
Matroska video codec in order to play it smoothly. The video codec packs can be found here:
http://packs.matroska.org/

After the installation(I used the Matroska Pack Full V1.0.2), you can use Windows media player or
any other video players to see the video. Good luck downloading.

It took me about two days to download, and sometimes it got really slow.
The problem is because not many Bit Torrent users are seeding this file.

When I watched the ending credit, it showed that the TV show series was
filmed back around 2002, I do have Discovery Channel on my cable but
I've never seen this program before. So it is pretty straightforward for me
to grab this clip while it is still available, because after a certain time this
file will be gone indefinitely.

I am also in the process of downloading another documentary video
regarding the British SAS, I will share the Bit Torrent link IF you
are interested. If you are not interested in getting this file due to
some "legal" issue, then leave this thread alone.

I'm DLing it now, but can any of you that have gone through the Marine boot camp comment on the accuracy of the videos? Anything left out or ignored?

Please share that link! I've been looking for videos like this for a long time without any luck. If you have more links or videos of SF around the world I'm very interested.

Downloaded and watched the whole thing today. I really enjoyed seeing the training and mental stress the recruits had to deal with. A very good documentary in my opinion.

Download the K-Lite Codec Pack 2.25 Full. It includes media player classic and that's what I used to view it.

You have DivX? I just dragged and dropped the files into my DivX player and voila. Work.

What really bothers me is that there are hundreds of video file types out there nowaday, and
you need a different video codec for each of them just to play the files. Why can't they just
keep it simple and stick to AVI and MPEG, instead of inventing some silly formats like MKV and et cetera?

or this:

make sure you have the Matroska codec pack installed.

Are people still seeding the file? I'm stuck at 30% and Torrentstorm keeps telling me that it is unable to connect to the tracker to scrape. So is that a problem on my side or does that mean that no one's seeding it anymore? Thanks for any help
