The Navy's Second Class Swimming Qualification (Narrated)

[@DaddyHutJr]

They pulled a few of us aside to get this qual after we did the initial test in bootcamp in 2015. Never really thought anything of it other than getting a few minutes away from regular bootcamp stuff, but it's awesome watching others successfully get the qual from your standpoint. Thanks for the video.

I like this format Benny. You use both types of videos where you film the moment and the other format is narration with video. I like them both. Please make more of the narrative videos with stories. Civilians like the stories from the military especially when the underdog succeeds.

Copy that. I’ll make more.

I hated this test. I couldn't float either. I was 6' and 180lbs.... But can't be a boat engineer without it, and I didn't want to be stuck on the ship when the small boats were running, plus now standing watch in port outside of US naval bases...

I just past my test 2 weeks ago. i failed the first time but got it the second time and it’s the same place I took it 😂

Muscle has nothing to do with staying on top of the water. Every swimmer at the Olympics is like 1% body fat. It’s being able to hold air, technique and body control.

Nice

Is Johnny also a QM?

So the people who don’t know how to swim stay the rest of the boot camp learning ? What does that mean ? Do they skip everything the people did know how to swim ?
