lucas wolf-pudney definitely, because the army is the most lenient and easiest branch to get into. The Army treats soldiers like children all the time so they're going to be less mature than members of other branches since the other branches have higher standards, so they take personal responsibility much more seriously than the Army. When I was in AIT (Ft Lee Quartermaster), I personally saw, and this is something you won't see online unless someone like me mentions it, that trainees of the Air Force and Navy were allowed to march back to their companies immediately after their classes were done, while Army trainees were all forced to stand in formation and wait around forever for their platoon sergeants to pick them up, because Army trainees just weren't trusted. This also may be a reason why every last duty day of the week, commanders/senior sergeants have to give the same long tiresome speeches over and over and over again about "don't do drugs," "don't drink and drive," etc. though I don't know about whether or not the other branches do or don't do the same thing but I wouldn't be surprised if they don't. And this might also be one of the reasons why Army (and also Marines) are forced to do boring, and pretty useless, group PT every duty morning even though higher ups admit that the PT (called "PRT" in the army) is not meant to actually improve fitness, while the Air Force and possibly also Navy let their people oftentimes do their own PT.

I think another misconception (which kinda goes with the "everyone is a sharp shooter" misconception) is that everyone who goes into the military goes onto the front lines during war. I think people don't realize how many "jobs" (MOS'S) are in the Army. They think that everyone is out shooting people on the front lines. However there's a loooooot of people in the "background" who aren't out there shooting others and being shot at. A lot of today's Army members may never see a combat war situation. So depends on their MOS.

Hey fellow battle buddies just here to share my experience in the army so far not really relevant to the video at all but I figured this was the perfect place to come to, so i joined January 9 and graduated march 21 2019 from ft Jackson 1/61 cco, my mos is a 92R which is a para rigger. Now after I graduated basic i went to a place called AOC (airborne orientation course) where all we did was litteraly PT all day pt test every Monday 4 mile runs every wensday and pt morning and in the afternoon all 92r have to reoprt to AOC after they graduate basic where you must pass the pt test with a 60 or more to pass on to airborne school i have a pretty good pr score with it being a overall score of 270 but i ended up having a hip “injury” when it was really just muscle irritation and i became a hold over there for 6 weeks when i was only supposed to be there for 2 weeks while all my friends were on to jump school and continuing their profession, so i finaly made it to jump school where i spent a whole 2 weeks and 3 days training only to injure my back on my 3rd jump while qualifying, if you dont know they’ll drop anybody for about almost anything so i had been med dropped and is currently now a hold over at airborne school where im currently waiting to be chapterd out the army on a Chapter 11 wich isnt a bad chapter and we do shitty details all day long and get our freedom taken away from time to time :) but at least i have the option of joining the military back not complaining just sharing my exp and maybe you guys can take from it

as to the pay it really depends on how you look at it. Lower enlisted pay just regular pay is not great, but you get all that other stuff, so really with lower enlisted it depends on how you look at it and what you expect base pay is really not that much in the lower enlisted ranks. Even in the higher ranks depending on what the MOS is you can make more money as a civilian to actually keep ( especially if you managed your money well in the lower enlisted ranks. All that to say that pay is debatable as to how you define "pay" as to how good it is or is not.

Joining the military has been on my mind for a few weeks now. More specifically the Marines. I've talked to a recruiter, with people at work that have joined, with random customers, at work, that I see wearing a veteran hat. I guess, my question is, what are good questions to ask these people. I'm in that stage of "I don't know what I don't know." Thank you!

@toasttea32

@Alfred Strickert I guess the main thing is I would like to learn a good amount of discipline. I understand that all of the branches teach you discipline, however I feel the Marines may be more intense about it. I am wanting to learn combat skills and learn a job that can later translate into a trade job possibly. Honestly, I am leaning towards going Special Operations unit. The thing is, I'm assuming there isn't much useful skills that can become transfered into the civilian world after going into the Spec Ops.

@toasttea32

@Alfred Strickert I am willing to put in that work. I'm definitely not about giving up, especially with the mindset of growing as individual. In particular, building discipline, maturity, teamwork, and challenge of taking on something that takes on your mental strength as well as physical. I think after what you said is convincing me more to joint the Marines. From what I looked up and learned so far, seems like it is my best fit. Do you have an personal information on what it's like to be in spec ops and the life afterwards? I've seen some guys on KZread that were Marine Raiders and/ Recon. However, I like to learn more than just one experience for these kinds of things. As they usually involve subjective experiences.

The people who go to basic training in San Diego are more likely to be deployed in places like Afghan or Iraq because of the similar climates. Is this true?

just ask a few open ended questions - what branch did you serve in? Would you do it again? A real veteran will probably be a little quiet at first. So explain that you are interested in serving and want some unbiased opinions. Just be aware that not everyone who wears "veteran" merchandise, is an actual veteran. And not every veteran has a closet full of "I served" t-shirts or what have you. I'm a proud, honorably discharged veteran, and I have no "veteran" regalia. Good luck to you! Remember that it's a Privelege to serve!

After an eight hour block of hand-to-hand instruction at Ft. Dix, NJ in 1977, our drill sergeant let us know that we had been trained enough in the art of getting our asses kicked in any civilian bar outside of post. Of course we never got to go offpost or the PX in basic, well one time to the PX for essentials but no pogey-bait.

Friday I'm finalizing my Paperwork then I'll Be Swearin In Hooah!!

As far as weapons training I would say it depends more on what unit you are in not what MOS you are. As a signal guy myself spending most of my career at a BCT I have had plenty of weapons training and plenty of range time.

In the UK, ALL service personnel, commissioned and enlisted are Soldiers First. regardless of the service branch, that's why we all have/had the same initial 14 weeks training, that's what makes you a soldier. So to call a Navy rank a soldier, would not be correct. When i left i heard years later that my unit was short manned and NCO's were doing Guard duty like private soldiers, which would mean upper ranks would also drop down in the "level" of job they would be doing in a situation like that if required. Because the essence is that we're all soldiers.

Hey so I think this would be a really good opportunity for you, since this one is more on the rare side you should write down stuff you do there and make videos on it for others who are interested in it. Just an idea, you could be the first to make videos about it. Also I really do wish you the best of luck.

The only combat you will get in the navy is zero unless it applies to your rate

Callsign Lykos how you like being a 31b. I’ve been wanting to join but I don’t think I’d do good enough on the asvab to get that mos. I really want to be a police officer after the service so I was wondering if you have any advice or tips?

HASF fanatic : I’m going in the Army National Guard. Even though I am going 11B, I don’t know what they will offer for that. Hopefully there is something. You’re probably right though. I’ve heard that you can sign up for other combative classes.

@@masonbedor6168 you won't eat MRE's *ALL* the time in basic. When you're not in the field, the vast of majority of chow times will be in the -mess hall- DEE FACK. Even in the field, you oftentimes will have what are called "hot A's" with a serving line of cooked (but not great) food. Though I was at Ft Jackson and can't say for sure how it would be at other BCT installations.
