AIRBORNE SCHOOL: Week 1 (Ground Week)

QUESTIONS?
Also I think I made an error. The Track was a mile long, not two. Whoops ahahaha

[@michaeltorrey3603]

Congrats on wings, that’s a big accomplishment. I was at fort benning for six months but never did the jump thing. 197th infantry brigade. Don’t know if it’s still there. Also congrats on the new wheels. Why do you park on the sidewalk?

[@itspennyduh]

Michael Torrey thank you! And its actually a small ramp so no cars can hit my car

[@coreyhansen4241]

Hi, and congratulations on your jump wings Penny. I portray the world war 2 Canadian army Air borne in my ww2 living history. Some times I play with the idea of going to Fredrkic, Oklahoma to do the world war era jump school. I'm proud of my promotion to Cpl. Corey. Corey Hansen from Canada.

[@itspennyduh]

Corey Hansen thank you!

[@cbax2869]

Can you explain if you do not complete to flexed arm hang? My daughter is about to go to jump school and is worried about the FAH.

[@sheltonpoteat473]

I spent all my time in the Army in 1/505 PIR 82nd Airborne. We jumped at least once a month. You, being in Korea, how often do you jump? Will you ever jump?

[@Alezcollection]

My neck is covered in “Airborne Hickeys” rn too lmao. Started Tower Week today lol

[@bria1978]

I enlisted yesterday 91F, I’m so excited! My process took a while

[@itspennyduh]

BRIA happy for you girl❤️❤️❤️

[@Androidandmore101]

dang small arms repairer huh..my first MOS

[@bria1978]

Rolf C. Did you enjoy it

[@Androidandmore101]

@@bria1978 its kind of dead end as it takes forever to get promoted as points were always maxed out. I went aviation and never looked back and now im out out..did a little over 6 years.

[@bria1978]

Rolf C. What does that mean about points being maxed out?

[@daniellemcla]

Been waiting for this, can you go airborne after AIT? Or speak to your recruiter about it when joining or is it only available once you start working at duty station?

[@jaymyers6564]

A recruiter can check into for you, normally most soldiers put in for it at their duty station, I’ve seen soldiers go from one school to the next, ex: air assault to airborne

[@itspennyduh]

Danielle McLa YES! (:

[@jaymyers6564]

Hey soldier, do that...it’s amazing how far you’ve came from your first video.

[@itspennyduh]

Jay Myers right (: thank you

[@WinkTVAmiri]

[@Ana_dee]

What are the fitness requirements for the pt test? How fast or what the minimum for the run? How many sit ups? Time? Push ups? Time? Minimum?

[@wendyortiz7529]

[@kiraelexis]

I really want to join the army but I have to get surgery on my foot. My plans is for that to heal which should be for 2 weeks then in mid winter retaking the ASVAB any thing I should know ?

[@itspennyduh]

Being Kira White good luck . And on the asvab?

[@kiraelexis]

itspennyduh for getting surgery do you think that’ll be a problem joining ? Or only if it’s completely healed and I can do all the physical requirements

[@itspennyduh]

Being Kira White depends what it’s for really. But if you have no problem you may be good.

[@kiraelexis]

itspennyduh ok I don’t find the problem too big but ok I should be fine thank you 😊!! Love the videos... keep it up 💕🔥

[@marrialala6712]

I just got my job reserved for 92Y airborne, any advice or incite you could give or pros and cons? Plz respond

[@cheeseman7453]

They run separately and do inverted pull ups

[@savannahfuentes6154]

How much weight is the black rope thing you talked about that we’d have to pull down if we couldn’t do the flex arm hang

[@cbax2869]

Did you ever find out the answer to your question or did you go to Airborne School?

[@scotthowe2286]

I was there 1980 loved it , you know all you need to jump out of plane,rear landing fall could not do it so jump master told me see this rock put it on your heels and I want to see that rock on your heels when you fall, running in the rain get me up at 4:30 in the morning run 3 miles come back to the barracks go to Chow and ate like a horse that had all kinds of good Chow it was a blast and a lot of fun

[@devdec11]

how long did it take you to get approved for airborne school? also it's only for after ait correct? i love your videos!!

[@itspennyduh]

dang divine like a week. And no you can go at anytime after Ait in your Army career. But riggers go after basic.

[@Tatyanaaa3]

[@itspennyduh]

[@itspennyduh]

[@itspennyduh]

Thomas Manning I hate the curfew lol. And I’m a pfc

[@ParanormalTbandz]

Whats a pfc

[@jaymyers6564]

Military rank structure, the enlisted side starts at E-1 and goes through E-8 each rank number has a name E-1 is a private E-2 is a Pvt E-2 E-3 is a Pfc E-4 is a specialist or corporal And it continues up The officers have the same thing except this is where you hear about captains, majors, etc
