Yeah that, and also that you would literally be getting to reception in the middle of the night and being forced to stay up 24 hours streight the first day you get there. I reccomend for anyone that is going to get as much sleep as you can on the plane ride there. Man that whole first 24 hours was brutal for me. Looking back I'm glad I went through it though.

As someone who went to BCT last year, they still yell and smoke the fuck out of you unhingedly, is it bad? of course not, best thing that happened to me, helped me come out of my shell and become confident as I went from a sheltered home to a stressed induced environment. Stay strong brothers, and those who wish to join, your drills are there to break you, but to make you, don't take it personal, because once those 10 weeks are done, you'll be someone you never thought you would become.

I commend all who joined, past and present. I joined in 97 and retired in 18. 3 combat tours to Iraq. I can't begin to tell you the friends and connections I have made over the years. Yes, this is all for the camera, but what these soldiers volunteer to give to their country speaks volumes. Joining was the best decision I ever made because you become a part of something bigger than yourself. You learn skills that will stay with you for these rest of your life. I use more skills today in my daily life that I learned here than what I learned in high school. Communication, teamwork, discipline, comradery, understanding, sleep deprivation, food rationing and leadership skills. I was/am an American Soldier.

I suppose there is something to be said about not toning it down for the cameras, but that's just what this essentially is, an ad. When I went through BCT at Fort Sill it was nowhere near as relaxed as depicted in this video. I now serve part-time in the US Army Reserve in Germany, and attend university full-time in Wales, and as such have several friends who are British Army and Royal Navy Reservists or who served full-time and finished their contracts. According to them, my experience in US Army BCT was about the same as British Army Basic Training when taking into account the obvious differences between each military in terms of various procedures, drill and ceremony, and weapon systems and the like.

So for the people looking into joining the army it is pretty easy. When you get to reception it will last a week and if your not going to 09m program or fat camp ( which is to help you lose weight before joining 09M is asvab help which is a school but you still learn military discipline there which is just your generic basics. But if you're not going into one or those you will get shipped out to boot camp which is 10 weeks if you are not in a combat role such as infrantry or combat engineer and i believe there are 2 others that go to osut which is the 10 weeks plus another 6 week extention added on so basically that will be your AIT. I got no idea about osut training i went into artillery and it wasn't to bad I advise everyone to have a reason on why you want to join and just think about that it goes pretty fast and isn't to difficult. ( if you're planning on going my advice is to give everything your 100% or you will look like a shitbag that doesn't want to be there. Don't talk in formations or you will then get corrective action which again is just a couple push ups but also will make you seem like a shitbag and they will keep a close eye on you. When you go to basic your first week will be improssesing which is just paper work, sharp classes, EO classes and how everything will work there for your next 9 weeks. After that you will do your confidence course which is just climbing over walls, climbing across a rope 50 feet up to the other side which is not hard at all, climbing a tower 60 feet up ( If you're scared of heights just dont look down and breath there will be a drill sergeant up there watching you plus i seen a female who wasnt even 5 feet tall do it so everyone should be able to. Next you will do the gas chamber and learn on how to properly protect yourself against chemical warfare ( tip for this is to just pay attention and deal with a little burning feeling at the end and don't try to run out or they will just throw you on the ground and make you do it but while there holding you down. After that you will do Victory tower which is learning on how to repel down walls its only 60 feet up and you won't fall so don't be scared at all ( Like legit theres no way for you to fall off ) after that you will get to white phase which is the beginning of marksman ship now for this try to control your breathing and shoot at the end of your last breath or in the beginning it varies for different people also take your time and pull the trigger slowly and squeeze it dont just let go after your shot you should hear a click sound after you let go of the trigger. For the marksmen ship you will zero in first which is making it so the gun is allied with your aim of sight then you will qualify the next week. For qualifying you just need to hit a 23 out of 40. And the targets go up in down usually in a order so if you dont get it your first try just remember the order and you should be squared away but there will be a pre qual so you should he fine also a 300 meter shooting range even before the pre qual so you will get practice in a bit. In the end if you still don't get it if you have any infrantry drill sergeants ask them for advice and they will teach you the steps they used to help. In basic you will also have 3 ruk marches which is just 60 pounds on your back and holding your rifle its not hard tbh the first march will he 2 miles, 2nd will be 5 milies and the last which is the forge will be 12 miles. They usually just say 8 but it is 12 on the way back which the march back is the one that counts for your graduation requirements. For your feild exercises you will just learn more in depth on how to set up a patrol Base, how to shoot with a team, How to setup a firing squad, How to ambush, To defend against a ambush and some other stuff. The last feild event you will sleep outside for 3 days and most likely be in the fox hole you made which is you digging into the ground with your ETool. And you will also do Nick At Night there also . In the end it sounds scary but it truly is not. For most of the people I knew they just had homesickness or a attitude problem. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask below.

For boot camp, it's the normal boot camp, but when he gets to AIT, he will do a lot more stuff that goes in depth with their job training. I know he will go to Fort Sill for AIT they do a lot of ruck marches, so he's going to have to prepare for that. Besides that, though, I don't know much about them.

@corybrezinskey2717 4 ай бұрын

@girlee0303 Also, for his life in the army, that all depends on where he gets stationed and how his unit is. I'm stationed in korea, and it's probably been the best time in my life. It all depends on the person. It's like a normal 9am to 5pm job for the most part some days you'll have to stay later some days you get to leave really early. A tip I can say for your son is when he has a bad day. Just embrace the suck it sounds rude, but honestly, after he gets in, it is truly not that bad it all depends on the unit he gets and how their command is. But for me, at least joining the military was probably the best decision I made in my life. You'll be able to do things that most people can't ever do and travel all around the world.

People who aren't even probably military hating on it, which is even more crazy. The sacrifices military members make is a lot and have to deal with on the daily. I suggest that people who aren't in please do more research and ask military members about their experiences and learn about what we do on a daily rather than hating on it over a video

I did boot 45 years ago! It was at Ft Knox! If you have seen the movie Stripes, it was filmed at Knox in boot camp. I marched around the same parade field as Bill Murray!

Ft Knox basic training-1981. A-15-4. We never got to select food choices. You held your plate out and they slopped it with whatever they desired-and you dam sure were thankful.

Not me, I could not wait to get out. Kudos to the ones who do serve and thank you for your service, but the military just was not a good fit for me. I enlisted in 1982, served 4 years in the Navy, then got out. TBH, there were parts I really liked and other parts I really hated.

@@peepers46 Thanks also for your service. Is your dad ok? I really admire those special forces guys in our military, esp. the Navy SEALs. These guys are some badasses and true American patriots. I am glad we have them on our side. I often fantasize about what it must feel like to make it through seal training.

@@boomerang6130 Thank you @boomerang6130, my Dad was forced to retire in 1984, after the heart attack and actually survived until 2010. I certainly agree about our Special Forces teams, I’m glad they are on our side. I thought about going to Airborne school, but never did it. I was offered Military Dog Handler and a $5000 bonus if I re-enlisted, if I had known my Dad was going to be alright, I would have done it. Have a great day

it's gonna be pretty hot and humid, and by the end of the 10 weeks, you're gonna start to feel some of the cold and windy climate. It's pretty green though, you'll get to see tons of woodland. Stay strong brother, hope you pass BCT, learn from your drills and battle buddies, and have fun. Welcome to the Army!
