YAY THANK YOU NICKY!!! I'm so happy you did a review of it. Keep the vids coming :)

Awesome video! Super informative and helpful for incoming Navy recruits

It would be cool if you did more corpsman related videos, maybe start a video series and invite other types of corpsman to talk about what they do. Finding current information about corpsmen online is difficult, so vids by corpsmen talking about what they do is really valuable. I bet if you did a series about what x-ray tech corpsmen do vs pharmacy vs aviation specific corpsmen vs hospital corpsmen actually stationed in clinics or hospitals, your channel would blow up. great job, keep going. I love the content and views your bringing to the table.

By some miracle I managed to get Corpsman! Ship off Feb. 20th and am watching all of your videos!

Excellent information! Thanks for the video.

My corpsman A school was at Great Lakes, winter of 1976. Cold! Then went to Pharmacy Tech school in San Diego.

One word that describes all this!Autonomy! I like it!

Nicky MGTV please do more videos about corpsman picking orders after A school independent duty corpsman how to get into a speciality C school.

Could you do a review of food in the military? Food, shelter, and clothing are usually known as the necessities of life. You already did a video covering housing (shelter). It'd be interesting to cover the other two in some capacity: food and clothing. For example, for the clothing, how often does a military servicemember have to buy their uniforms? How much does it cost to maintain them? What are the different types of uniforms? Things of that nature. For the food, maybe going into things like...your favorite dish and least favorite dish you've been served in the military. How does food compare to outside restaurants? When does one have no choice but to eat MREs? What is the process of buying food (meal card?) and how much food can you buy per day/is there a $ limit? So on and so forth. Just a thought. Thanks!

Thank you Nicky! This video of yours and the document you attached is heavens sent! I am an immigrant and a foreign educated RN. Got 72 on my ASVAB and would like to enter the Navy as a Hospital Corpsman and then hopefully go to C school as SAR. Also in the future, to get into the Nurses Corps. Is the path I am thinking of a possibility? To eventually end up at Nurses Corps?

Hey man, thanks for all the info! It is all very much appreciated. How would I better my chances of getting my recruiter to work with me on becoming a corpsman? I currently work with equipment and supplies for a pretty big hospital in SoCal. That being said I'm already acclimated to working in a fast paced hospital environment and I would hate if that experience went to waste... I'm honestly not really considering any other rates besides those in the medical field, so if I could gain experience as a corpsman for a few years all would be swell! Thanks again.

My advice for future hms....start studying now. Your buddies will be picking up with 40s while if you score that as a hm, you're considered special to put it nicely

Do you work with any SEALs? If so, think you could do a video about the job? Also, you said you want to go officer eventually; what kind of officer do you want to be?

hey nicky can you do a video about the HM - Radiation Health Technician? duties, responsibilities, requirements, etc?

NICKY MGTV can you change corpsman specialty within your 4 year contract? Let's say you go fmf first and after a year/2 you decide to go SAR. I'm a green card holder so I cant just jump into SAR since they need security clearance. just swore in last week BTW.

Have a quick question: Any other way to chat/send messages other than YT comments/snapchat/instagram? The last 2 I don't use, (I'm separating in under 30 days, bigger fish to fry,) and YT comments are too public normally. I'm an AE3 with experience in both I-level, O-level, and recently was deployed in part of Operation Inherent Resolve. Wanna offer to be a contributor, even if only writing and not appearing on camera. Recent medical issues make me not so photogenic.

Just a question for anyone to answer:(a little background) im currently a surgical Technician and I’ve been working as one for the last 2 years but i am not certified! So i can’t get into a hospital. I work twice a week so obviously is not enough. I am enrolled in college but Pretty much in my first year of community college. If i join, what are the chances i can continue being a surgical tech ? I plan on advancing and becoming a nurse or PA but i do need the structure to continue ! I want to continue working in the O.R. I wouldn’t mind another position as long as it has opportunity for advancement.

If you get stuck at a hospital or something do you get new orders somewhere else with like a marine unit? I’m looking into this now but I just want the guarantee of travel and to be attached to a Marine unit if I end up choosing to do this for four years.

My ultimate goal when i join the navy in a few months is to work on a carrier and see the world. I’m having trouble choosing a job that fits me. My ASVAB score is high enough to allow me to qualify for any job the navy has to offer (besides nuke).

Once you do well enough on this screening you might be selected to attend the school you want....Recon, Dive Med Tech, or Search and Rescue. Once at what ever school you choose you will have to do there fitness test that varies from each school.

NICKY MGTV from what I know it’s a different type of corpsman that will go to A school at fort Sam Houston in Texas I was told I would be an E-4 out of school. Then there i will pick my specialty. From the link that the other replied I think it skips some stuff that a regular HM does, and I would be working to be a SAR corpsman, diver or marine spec ops. I think it’s a special forces medic. I may be wrong but I think it is that way. Could you possibly look at this link and tell me what you think? www.navycs.com/navy-jobs/hospital-corpsman-atf.html

3 types of IDC's surface, submarine, and special operations. A sarc goes to Fort Bragg for special operations combat medic course (SOCM) after graduating basic recon course. You will go on to jump, dive and seer school then on to a recon or marsoc unit. After a deployment usually you'll return to Fort Bragg for Special Forces Medical Sgt course which qualifies you as a special operations IDC.

You have 6 weeks of emt training, super fast and kinda stressful.. you do all the exams. Then move onto skills aka the hands on stuff. You'll have a final test, super easy. Then you go into basic nursing course, where you basically learn how to do cna stuff. Then you do intermediate nursing. Where you learn more high tech stuff. Like blood draws, IV's and stuff like that. Then you do this thing called clinicals.. where you basically take everything you learned and you work in a clinic or hospital for 5 days. After that is your last course called EAP.. which is basically the corpsman manual, where you learn how to apply everything in the corpsman lifestyle.. and then you graduate. :-)

Chances are slim for this because corpsman typically doesn't have manning issues. You usually move to another job that is requiring bodies vs one that's already filled. I do know people that crossed in to Corpsman but it was by force not by choice. This is something you inquire about at your first command typically or when you want to re-enlist you can inquire about changing jobs.
