BRC TIPS AND TRICKS (RECON TRAINING) [1 of 3]

[@GeneralDischarge]

Stay tuned for videos 2 and 3 where we discuss the other phases of BRC! Thanks for watching!

[@GeneralDischarge]

@Tyler Brew because SARC's can be assigned to recon or any special operations unit within the Navy or Marine Corps there are many diferent experiences to be had. The pipeline if you include Corpsman A school and field med is almost 2 and a half years.

[@screencheater16]

When is part 2 and 3 gonna be uploaded ? I just finished brpc and pick up June 4 with brc

[@GeneralDischarge]

@@screencheater16 pt 2 on Wednesday and pt 3 the following Wednesday. Congrats on brpc. How long have you been tuned into the channel and how has it helped you?

@3:45 Y’all definitely Xbox gamers 😅

[@mikeschepper6485]

As an older marine I attended land nav course in the mountains (bridgport), desert (29 palms) and several jungles (Malaysia, Thailand, Okinawa, etc).... I found the canopies in the jungles in southeast Asia made things very difficult to tell where you were and you had to rely on foot count and your compass and your map a lot of the time as well as marking each terrain elevation to get close to your extraction point or bivouac destination.Wet, a lot of bugs and very dark during the days. Add a night course with shitty NVG's and the training gets real interesting.

[@andrewjansen9702]

i know what you mean. my late great grandpa was a vietnam vet.

[@PainoftheAncestors]

Amphib used to be 2 Phase. I messed up terribly by falling asleep during the Land Nav classroom knowledge portion and yes I caused everyone to suffer…. Distant memories now!

What he said around the first minute of the video is really wise stuff.

[@edwardmckinney8]

"Dont be a sissy about it... you still gotta send it" Wise words to live by 😂

[@456czar]

Thank you Sargent for all your teaching and encouragement. I was BRC in the '60s after my Field Med Training as a Corpsman. Only one aspect of my training I did not like was running with a rope around my waist and pulled by a instructor when i failed to keep up with my squad. From that point on i maid sure i never was behind any one. Loved being a Marine Corpsman!!! ooorah!

[@cm-pr2ys]

Great videos! You hardly ever see anything like this! Thank you for your help!

LandNav LandNav Landnav! You must endure that everywhere you will go, especially when you get to Ranger School, you don't wanna give the RI (i.e. me) a reason to send your ass crying back to the Corps. because you get your squad lost. My best advice is get some topo and/or imagery of your area and start plotting courses for your runs and ruck marches that will help A LOT in preparation and get you used to the differences between your imagery/topo and the actual terrain you're trying to navigate through.

Do a video on land nav

[@XtraM3dium]

My recruiter definitely didn’t want me going Recon for some reason. He literally told me everything bad they do to you and even had a marine that dropped from BRC come in and tell me that they literally drown you.

[@GeneralDischarge]

Find a new recruiter if you still don't have the contract you want!

[@saudakar9004]

Well that sounds like motivation to me

[@jimprestigious863]

Can you guys go over finning at BRC, like a technique rundown? Thank you!

[@nickmcginn6340]

Kick harder. Finning isn't to much in technique just absolute power. Usually get frog fins or split fins. Maintain neutral balance and waterproof your ruck so it floats well

[@tgboogie7203]

If you want to suck at finning, listen to that guy ^

[@Polemicist_]

Best pro tips on the internet. Thank you so much guys. Looking forward to that Tommy T shirt ahaha.

[@dmitributusov9880]

Enlisting soon, I’ve been talking to a recruiter and I’ve been talking about getting into Recon and then transitioning to MARSOC so I can be more of an asset on the contractor market, would like to talk more with you on some tips and help, ProtonMail?

[@GeneralDischarge]

We're more so here to help guys into the pipeline because not everyone has the same opportunity for mentoring. You're talking full career spectrum. That's great you know what you want to do but also one step at a time.

[@dmitributusov9880]

General Discharge of course no doubt, still gotta do MCRD I was just wondering if you could help with questions about timing or whatever and what route would be best

[@GeneralDischarge]

@@dmitributusov9880 I get where you're coming from. The best I could do for you is say that throughout your career make sure you are humble about your aspirations and be sure to seek out and utilize good mentors

[@oracle_indiana]

Be an asset to the Marine Corps first.

[@sethheaddress2651]

Don’t worry about going into marsoc immediately, you have to give your life to the corps for a bit.

[@maxb4210]

So you actually get to practice land nav before the graded portion? Because I’ve been looking at Recon recently but my land nav’s always been shit, mostly since I never cared to get extra instruction on it. That’s changed for me now

[@GeneralDischarge]

Yes you get practice

[@glennhynes5263]

I ve recently subscribed, but seriously.... voice changing does nothing to disguise who you are. Come on. As a youtube channel you have a huge digital footprint. The voice thing is cheesy. Otherwise I m interested.

It's just for fun I wouldn't think too much into it. Glad you like the channel!

[@rickyaguilar38]

I always thought youtube had the least digital footprint. unlike others (ie insta & FB).

Are you kidding me,.. you have to conceal your identity to speak on “ basic “ reconnaissance training? We are in the age where everyone wants to be a “ Black Ops” commando and crave that recognition. Just serve your country with honor and get over yourself.
