Raines was one of my good friends growing up. He passed away in 2020, so coming across this video and seeing him in it and hearing his voice again gave me chills.

Thought they were paid actors/models for a sec and then I was like wait these are AIT students 🤯

I was watercraft engineer and we did anchor ops with the divers in Hawaii and took them to Alaska with us to try to salvage a barge in Ketchikan, good times

Hooyah Deep Sea. Nice video. Saw a couple of my Navy Diver comrades snuck in that video too

I made it through phase 1(Am currently a holdover waiting for phase 2). I will tell you this MOS is no joke. The PT is grueling, the standards are high, and there’s little to no chance you’ll make it and could be reclassed. But its worth giving it your all.

I remember talking to the U.S. Army recruiter about this MOS and he knew nothing except for what the website said. He suggested talking to the Navy if it was something I really wanted to do 😂 ended up doing neither and went with a different MOS.

Signed up to be an Army DIver back in 2002, but the wait time to go to Basic was about 8 months. After 2 I was ready to go! Called my recruiter, renegotiated my contract, and went Airborne (92R) instead. I was out 2 weeks later 🙌

Delta P Safety Instructional Video, I advise you to watch this before you choose to do anything construction under-water.

Had a friend try to convince me to come back in, as a diver. lol I really don't want to get slammed all over the pool

how many years do you have to sign up?

Since only a small percentage complete the training to become Divers, what happens to those who don't? Do you get to choose a new MOS - or does the Army choose one for you?

This job requires as high score as college ACT.

I went through diver phase 1, and was injured on the LAST FUCKING DAY. Literally, the last hour. 3 months on crutches. Then 6 months physical therapy in the fucking COMMUNICATIONS JOB they forced me to switch to. I will never, ever, in my entire life lose my resentment for the diver cadre who made us do double, or triple the required daily training. They GOT OFF on hurting soldiers. So many broken fucking friends from that. I trained for months before I went to basic. I could hold my breath for 4 minutes. I crushed every in water evolution. Those injuries have never healed.

@@TheFoxyPlayer I was medically discharged after refusing the med board 2 times. On the third time (they did it every 3 months when my injuries got too bad for me to go to the range anymore) the brigade surgeon told me he has never had a soldier refuse a med board (first step to medical discharge) and told me to sit on a mountain (we had one right next to the hospital) and ask myself why I’m still doing this, come back to him with an answer. I accepted the med board and was promptly discharged, about 2 years after diver selection. I did my best. I bought in way too hard to the whole “it isn’t training until it hurts” type of mindset. Stupid. It really messed me up for a couple years, baker acted and all that. Luckily for me, my local VA saved my life. I have now a wonderful wife and kid, and a new purpose. But every time I see anything that reminds me of diver my soul is crushed. I can’t even surf anymore. I was a hurricane surf chaser for 10 years before i went to selection. So much lost. But of course I know, many people lost much more.

You have have be an engineer 2LT at EBOLC during the August/September to try out. The selection process is rigorous. By the end of the pool day, less than 10 will remain out of 30+. Those 10 will be interviewed to select the most qualified candidates for phase 1 and 2.

I wanted to do this. It wasn’t available. Glad I didn’t .... I don’t like being drowned.

I was a diver back in the islands of Palau. What we’ve been trained from the our seniors is much rougher and tougher.😂 it’s too easy.

US army divers are trained to fight enemy divers, it isn't shown here but they do a lot of underwater reconnaissance in places where the army is operating (rivers, lakes, and sometimes oceans) and sometimes work with SF Combat divers. No, they do not just use a knives. When doing beach and river recon (Pretty much SEAL and SF Combat diver territory) they'll be equipped with what an infantryman uses plus a swim suit.

With MOS 88L( Watercraft Engineer), MOS 88W( Watercraft Operator) and MOS 12D( Diver) , these Army Mariners are just as good, if not better than Navy and Coast Guard Boatswain's Mate Rates. U.S. Army: Deploy, Defeat and Destroy the Enemy Aggressor in the Air,on Land, at Sea.🇺🇸⚓🛥️
