Very important point you made though is if you do buy a car get a car you CAN afford. Bring your squad leader if you can.

During my time in the Army (1982-1985): Cell phones: Basically didn't exist, nor did the internet. Car: Bought my room mate's 1970 El Camino SS. Should have kept that car! It helped during ETS time. Sold it to another soldier just before I left. Utility tool/knife: Never really needed one. I was a mechanic. Had a full toolbox. Pen and notepad: Never needed one. If you had a pen, it had to be hidden/concealed from plain view. Some soldiers put it in their pen slot of the left breast pocket and called it the "Good Penmanship Award." Watch: Most guys that wore watches had the Army type watch band. It looked like a wrist band and had a velcro flap to cover the face of the watch. It was usually green in color.

When stationed at any of my posts (Alaska, Germany, multiple stateside) I always had a Gerber, a Swiss Army Champion, a Combat/Camp knife, a Casio Ironman digital watch, and when I was in the early 90's, a personal computer. All these made me very popular in my units since I was always on time with the right tool when someone needed it in the field. Most of the senior NCO's in my unit even borrowed my knives or tools when they needed them in the field. The computer at the time was popular since in the early 90's they were expensive and rare for most all people, so I had a lot of fellow soldiers use it to type up letters home, play video games or such. :-)

For Infantry: create your own weapons cleaning kit. A set of dental picks, at least two bore snakes (one for 5.56 and one for 7.62), CLP, lint free rags, Gerber or SOG, or Leatherman multi-tools whichever you prefer, toothbrushes, small wire brushes, Q-tips(lots of them) and a shaving lather brush made from horse hair (it helps to remove the bulk of dirt, mud, and dust from a weapon after you have been out in the field for a while. Plus, horse hair is soft enough to not remove the blueing from the exterior of the weapon, which I have seen happen when using regular hard plastic bristle hair brushes.

When our son went to Basic in 1995 at Ft. Benning Georgia. He left the house with one pair of underwear in his pocket nothing more. He knew he would have to carry everything he would haul there and everything they issued to him for at least a few hours. This way he would have less to carry he even tossed the extra skivvies so he didn't have to carry them around!

A big one that was missed in the video.... photo copies of paperwork. Get any paper that you are allowed to, and you think is important, photocopied. And a good “lock box” or similar case for storage of said copies/ original documents . Oh, and do not lose your SS card and military ID at the same time. I have not done it personally, but you literally cannot get a new one without the other. Same applies to CAC cards.

Pierce transit and Joint Base Lewis McChord do have some services which operate both on and off post. They serve two major transit centers in south pierce county as well as six stops on post. All riders must have access cards to the post, and regular pierce transit fare is accepted which can transfer to other services off post. Bad side is it operates Monday through Friday only, and in the mornings and afternoon windows only. No federal holidays either. Which is a lot more exhaustive than most transit holidays here which is usually just the six major holidays.

Cell phone is 100% a must have. In the Army, you can count on on hand the few things that AREN'T subject to change literally 30 minutes prior and it's hard to somehow come across that info without a phone. I've gone to sleep a few times, woke up for PT and the uniform changes, or the location changes, as for watches, I 100% agree, but instead of a smart watch, invest in a Garmin Instinct Tactical. It can take the abuse of a grunt's life, and you still get notifications, you can reply, plus other health monitoring widgets on it. Plus the battery lasts 28 days.

These are relatively right, give or take. Most units don't issue Gerbers or knockoffs of Gerbers but it does happen albeit rarely. Pen and paper has become optional with the advent of notepad apps on phones but still a good idea all the same. Cars are just a good idea regardless. Same with phones. Watches are good but not an absolute must.

Great video but you beat the Uber idea to death. When I was in a notebook and a pen was SOP. I'd say if you are worried about a smart watch dying or breaking your digital watch go old school and get the iconic analog military watch. They have concealable wristbands with velcro covers to avoid giving away your position when in the field or down range. Just a few words from an old soldier.

@@aadipattanaik7778 well we are talking about a watch right? So, how does that put you at a disadvantage? I mean yeah it would be cool to have that stop watch function and alarms which can get you dead if you forget to disable them, and why do you need a watch that can tell you what time it is in Prague or Hong Kong? Your first phone call back home after arriving at a new duty station or overseas should help you orient your time in your head for future calls home. For example, if you are from the east coast and you get stationed in California you should know its a 3 hour difference or a 5 hour difference between London and the east coast. So you can be just as informed as the next guy if you think about it. Before all this new technology arrived people still got to work on time, remembered time differences, knew how to do simple math (addition subtraction, multiplication and division) in their heads or a notebook, mostly just in their heads. Just for a reference I served from 80 - 84

Plenty of wet wear and stuff for uniform no matter where your stationed its kind of a efficency thing to have a OCP coat even in Florida so you don’t waste time getting one when you arrive or are leaving for the north and instead can pack/ unpack.

Hi I'm really learning a lot about military life from your channel. Thanks for your service Sir. I am having to deal with a long distance relationship with a E7 who's planning retirement. He lives in the Barracks of course we both must be careful of catfishing that goes on. We both have been through bad past relationships. He does send me pictures of him during the week we text when our day allows. He says that he can't make calls because he's on a special assignment in St. Augustine FL. He has done a very brief video chat while on duty during the day outside. But says he could have gotten in trouble. If caught but wanted to prove who he says he is. I really would like for us to talk on the phone. But we do quite a bit of texting. He says he's very excited to be retiring. But he's doing his best to follow the rules to retire soon. I just don't understand that he can text but can't make calls out when he's in the Barracks, is that true because he has a special assignment?

I was hoping you didn't say cellphone. Only because I didnt always have a working one. Also I didnt have a vehicle at one point and having a cell helped. I was 130 miles away. Reservist I did make it. But...i paid more for gas. Still carry my Gerber. I'm writing this as you go along. Dont have a watch anymore. But had one when in Afghanistan...got cut off on accident. Still carry the pen and notebook. Carry that at work. Most of these I still always must have. Old habits.

There's 15 minutes I'll never get back. How about a lensatic compass? Poncho and liner? 550 cord? Of course a watch but some of that shit is not priority unless you're a remf. Didn't have cell phones and couldn't have a car as a single soldier in Germany 88-90. Turns out the shoe leather express worked just fine...

Hi Chris, you didn't mention this but what about having a drivers license? I know other future soldiers that say they don't have a license when they leave to basic training so would you say having one BEFORE you leave would be very helpful?

I’d recommend having a drivers license so that you can get a car if needed. Otherwise you might be stuck in that category of being sick of asking for a ride after a while.

Where do people live that they don't feel the need to have a drivers license?? is it part of the "new generation?" Please tell me it's not a "sovereign citizen" thing! Just curious.

@@dougtheeliminator1077 Its people who live in cities such as myself. We usually don't need a license because we can rely on public transportation such as the bus or train to get around or everything is within walking distance in the city. And maybe its part of the new generation also because we are more conscious about the environment and its actually better for the environment using public transportation since you're not contributing more CO2 into the atmosphere.
