Army Infantry Basic Training: What to expect. What you need to know.

hopefully a little help for any of you youngins who are joining/thinking about joining the good old blue.

[@jtmnavy]

when u think of a grunt this guy is it ,,,, lmao dip bottle and everything

[@TheInfantryLife]

JTsuits 😉

[@ZanOGAL]

JTsuits you both are the bomb

[@TRGApostle]

you get through basic and AIT, you can do anything.

[@Chris-pt3it]

JTsuits Hell yea every bit of badass is present

[@derekscott9352]

paaaaaapa

[@codzmagame]

Just got back 2 weeks ago from benning (infantry osut) and I weighed 234 when I got there and my two mile was 20:48. At the end I weighed 190 and my two mile time was at 13:09 so if I can do it, you can do it too.

[@TheInfantryLife]

nice fuckin work bro!

[@pursuitofadventure5938]

Fuck man amazing job. I'm so out of shape. I'm 6' 1" and 175 with a 20 minute two mile.... I can't get it down for the life of me and I need to take at least three minutes off asap!

[@ericsiple6096]

Dude how tall are you? 234? You must be pretty tall.

[@bubbagump9485]

Good for you man. Keep your head on straight

[@andyfrancis2946]

Did you get the peanut butter shot

[@danielbush5438]

So, basically the only way to be ready is to know there's no way to be ready.

[@attiumeyami417]

Carry on seemen

[@joriggs8948]

My advice is to not give up. Stay strong. You must have mental fortitude. Approximately 1/3 of my basic class at Ft. Benning got kicked out or recycled because of failure to adapt to a regimented lifestyle or physical inability. Start running, push-ups, sit-ups, chin-ups, 3 months prior, makes it not as stressful.

[@TheInfantryLife]

that's solid advice if I've ever heard it.

[@joshochoa4641]

SuperElite27000000 im leaving for infantry osut at fort benning january 9th. how much would you say you ran for pt each day

[@joriggs8948]

Josh Ochoa I went through OSUT at Ft. Benning 25 years ago and then we ran about 2 miles per day with force marches regularly. You will also do lots of other PT and weight training. Don't worry, they will acclimate you. Have fun!

[@SuperElite27000000]

let me give you some advice, when you go shopping make sure to buy plenty of gold bond and put that shit on your nether regions and things, you can thank me later.

[@joshochoa4641]

SuperElite27000000 what was the pt like? did yall run long distances

[@awesomeneiss]

I completed it at 18 5'6" 128 lbs at the time. I was in good shape... being able to run 11:55-12 minute 2 miles and shit. If you're reading this you can do it. I promise you

We had one guy, every morning, getting smoked by his Drill Sargeant(in the platoon next to ours). one morning, his drill asked him, what his problem was.." he said, Drill Sargeant, I'm all F**ked up. my platoon and I made the mistake to snicker, 0500 beating our faces in the front leaning rest getting our butts reamed. stay cool bro!

Damn, I'm starting to get even more nervous day by day. I ship out on the 24th of July this year to fort benning for osut. Do you recommend me to start calisthenics? I did 5:48 min for my 1 mile, 44 pushups, and 34 sit ups for the 1-1-1 test, but I'm getting slower in doing reps.

[@MibuInMalibu]

how’s it going man?

[@Crappphuiknn]

Make it?

[@aggressivesewerpipe6290]

I’m sure you’ve already passed but if your still in trying to enhance your acft I would run 1 mile then 100 push ups 100 sit ups and finish up with another mile (fast)

[@m0n0p0ly9]

How do you talk with that half can dip

[@carsonveteto9315]

Your videos have helped out a lot my recruiter has been pretty straight forward but I'm interested in joining the army I want to be an infantry man but I want to go more airborne or air assault, I don't really understand how that process works. Iv been told theres a airborne thing I can get in my contract but I would rather ask you cause your information is nice to know. thank you again

[@Jose-wr9ht]

I'm 18 I know everything

[@colebugg8888]

Jose Robles I know

[@ItsGMarty]

swearing in with a 11xray contract with option 40 Airborne Ranger on monday. already finished MEPS. airborne qualified. I originally chose 13fox but eyesight barely missed the mark so I went infantry I stead.

[@andrewgiff6846]

How'd you get option 40? Tf. My recruiter said there was none left for contracts.

[@ItsGMarty]

well I got a 70 on my asvab and got a 114 GT score. also I am in shape and can meet ranger physical standards already so they pulled some strings to get me there

[@ItsGMarty]

well I got a 70 on my asvab and got a 114 GT score. also I am in shape and can meet ranger physical standards already so they pulled some strings to get me there

[@tommyvillarreal3399]

aye copenhagen good choice my friend.

[@flight2k5]

Crazy seeing comments from guys from 3 years ago saying they are leaving in a month for basic. I wonder where they are now.

[@ryank911]

is there a way i can be an infantryman and a medic at the same time? or is that called combat medic

[@jaybiddy955]

The 11B will be trained in Combat Life Saving (CLS) each squad has a aid and liter team which is there to help the medic (Doc) The 68W is the Doc who's attached to the infantry platoon he hangs back with the platoon Sgt and conducts aid if necessary in a instance of a fire fight you probably won't shoot much What do you prefer blue cords or red crosses

[@thomasrush5417]

Ryan K can’t do both at the same time... join Infantry, get your Airborne wings, EIB and CIB... then go to the medic course when you reenlist!

[@johnjohnson7317]

18D Special Forces medic. So thats both jobs in one.

[@RivetGardener]

Paratrooper Infantry 1986 - 2002 Yeah it is all extremely heavy lifting and moving the whole time. Plain and simple. Then you move shoot and communicate. Then you lift, and move. Over and over again. The horror of combat is short, bloody and not nice. Then you move out carrying big fat heavy rucks yet again. The life of an infantryman, is hard. Brutal. You are a pack animal that is expected to kill once you drop your ruck. (Thats' your rucksack, that weighs 60 LBS, by the way) You are always tired, hungry, pissed off and ready to kill someone. That's the way the Army wants you. That's the way I was for 6 years and 2 combat tours. Second generation soldier, would'nt trade the hell for anything.

[@TRGApostle]

I had the hardcore Basic in the now long gone C 2-58, changed to C 4-2 Harmony Church. Old.. my grandfather's World war 2 barracks.

[@thomasrush5417]

MGTOW warrior yep, B-4-2 at The Church... then I did my 20 in the Infantry with 16 in the 82nd. Wish I could go back.... but it’s not happening. I’ll just enjoy my retirement.

Haha very good explanation man! shipping off 20170717

[@jesusarmendarizz]

btw where'd the korea video? haha

[@beckettjamescalvert5714]

I'd disagree and say some questions are actually really fucking dumb questions.

[@TheInfantryLife]

Beckett James Calvert dude! if people stop asking dumb fucking questions there would be a lot less to laugh about though!!

[@beckettjamescalvert5714]

Very true. But questions after the instructor says how to do something then right away, someone is completely off and asks what the instructor just said how to do. It's gets a little annoying. But it is funny to see people fuck up if that's what you mean😂😂

[@TheInfantryLife]

well yeah, that shit is annoying but, then we would lose the face palm moments instead! haha

[@beckettjamescalvert5714]

Exactly, those face palm moments are a mix of annoying, funny, and "are you really that dumb?" All mixed into one😂😂

[@EastHollandDIsciples]

Hey brother, could you do a video on your MEPS experience? Love all the videos!

[@TheInfantryLife]

MEPS is a long boring day.

[@THMxxWoW]

I keep rewatching your videos, finally dropped the weight i needed just to go to MEPS, took about 2 months for 30 or so pounds, probably wont get to ship until January tho, tired of waitin, my break after highschool before enlisting was supposed to be a few months not 3 damn years haha.

[@ElevenDakota98]

Weldon Gaming same here man. I'm joining soon and I'm about the same weight. Everybody has different body types, and everybody is self conscious to some extent. You'll do better on obstacle courses etc because you have a higher agility level. You can do it man. It's all headstrength

i was 128 when i graduated. i stayed the same weight.

[@smoke9393]

I leave for 11x. Fort benning 1.28.20 💪

[@gaberoberson7835]

Thanks brother, headed down to benning in about a month.

[@rrmartin392]

Don't be an uptight boy scout because you're just another joe. Its important to get along with your platoon. I can't tell you how important that is. I'm not talking about popularity contest I'm talking about ego. You'll see older guys there and retread prior service guys who got in because they realize civillian life is a fucking grind. You're not better than them. If you act like some uptight boy scout you'll become the platoon punching bag. In high school you're friends might think their cool and everyone gives you validation but its a cold shock when you first get there and realize you're not special.

[@Razor23Boy]

Yo wassup! I'm back! With Airborne in tow rocked the apft. E Co 2-58

[@DudeDudeDudeDudeDudeDude]

Im really considering joining the army with the hopes of getting a combat MOS like infantry/airborne. How likely is it to get deployed somewhere and actually see combat? Assuming we (US) stays as active in world conflicts as we are today. I don't want to go through basic/osut and then be a janitor for the rest of my contract. I want to see the world and fight

[@juliopineda5444]

You really dont have to hope for that infantry mos i just swore in this week and got '11x' dont know too much but i can say youll most likely get it if you bring it up to your recruiter i leave to ft benning on July 30th

[@TheInfantryLife]

I don't regret any of my time in the military, if that's what you're asking bro. It set me on a good path in life.

[@TedBronson1918]

If you don't mind my breaking in on your question, I think I can give a couple of positive points to ponder about joining, things that will benefit you the rest of your life no matter what job you get later on. They're also reasons why a lot of employers will prefer to hire veterans. First- self discipline. It includes everything from getting up to go to work on time to making sure your work is completed to contolling yourself in tense situations and more. The military will develop that quality in you if you want to get promotions, or if you end up in combat situations-to stay alive. Second- Small shit won't intimidate you and make you unravel. Third- by the end of your enlistment you'll have a good idea of your own abilities. Things that will cause others to hesitate you won't think twice about doing. Fourth- you'll probably develop a good work ethic that will make you a desirable employee. Reliable and hard working employees are valued, and you'll stand a head above otherswhen they bitch about putting in an extra half hour in a regular 8 hour day. In comparison, 8 hours will seem like a part time job to you. I hope this helped you. Good Luck !

[@alexanderoconnor6936]

Good shit! Thanks for keeping it real. LoL Prior service (USMC) switching over to Army (infantry - did infantry for the Corps years ago too). Looking forward to it - dunno if you know if the environment is much different or not? Either way - good video!

[@logannally9429]

Good times for sure, and you're right about the one less smoking! I fell asleep in our bays laundry room one night doing laundry, and the sound of "IN CADENCE...EXERCISE" woke me up. I kinda just chilled there until I heard "position of attention move." Walked out a few minutes later with my laundry bag, and they all had red ass faces lmfao. It was probably around midnight.

I can honestly say it was everything you mentioned and more. I look back now, many years later and I know it was some of the hardest and BEST days of my life! Thanks for making this.

[@zaam2435]

Hey dude can you make a video on embracing the suck, i have a strong feeling ill have trouble with this

[@TheInfantryLife]

pretty sure I did already. the ranger school and the suck video.

[@zaam2435]

sorry man im still trying wrap my head around this whole concept.

[@alkalionpower]

Do you really get your ass kicked in basic?

[@Ranger.TomGunna]

When I went to MEPS in Indianapolis (because Columbus Ohio MEPS is dirty as fuck lol) I got to put Airborne Ranger in my enlistment and did it all right when OSUT was done...this was 2006 though, things may be different

[@Mr333brando]

Kind of off topic but I really need help. Recently took the ASVAB and got a 47 with a GT score of 103, got a couple of options for jobs some with bonuses. One job I was interested in was 11X because of the routes you can take within it. Long story short, didn't get Option 40 but my recruiter said that it will become an option that I can volunteer for, is that b.s.??? and are bonuses b.s. all to get me to hurry up & enlist???

[@garysvitak7758]

Is there a written test in infantry School

[@tomsellek7710]

All I want to do is Infantry. I haven't received my ASVAB score yet and I am doubting myself. I'm not quite sure if I made the passing score or if I fucked up and have to go to MEPS to retake it. I'm a fucking moron and probably made between a 7 and a 34. Just wondering if I will have a chance to get Infantry even if I have a low score? I believe the cut off score is 31 for High School.

[@TheInfantryLife]

Tom Sellek it is on the lower end but dont get all worked up until you know what you scored bro.

[@tomsellek7710]

+The Infantry Life Gotcha. 👍

[@cacacaca2632]

I have a question. When you say you have big guys in boot camp like 200 pound guys like how did they get in isn’t there a height and weight requirement lol?

[@Eli-ns5uw]

Subbed BTW what's that map in the background of?

[@TheInfantryLife]

[@Eli-ns5uw]

The Infantry Life oh opps

[@TheInfantryLife]

+I FΔT no worries.

[@alphadogzairsoftfamily7245]

I'm going in open minded and postive

[@TedFegal]

My asvab score was 70... I'm 2 weeks away from being infantry. I can form complete sentences and not walk into walks. I find it disrespectful already when people critique me for my job choice.

[@macburger5026]

it is precision if you want to waste years of your life doing a job that has absolutely no translation to the civilian world, thereby increasing your chances of being a homeless bum on the street because you can't stay in the military forever; if you want a job in the military that you won't even actually do 99.99 to 100% of the time unless you are in a war zone in the middle east; if you're the type of disgusting freak that you *WANT* to literally be wallowing in your own feces for longer and more often than other MOS's because infantry goes to the field and stays longer than other MOS's; if you want to ruin your body no matter how good of shape you're in from extra ruck marches and running; if you want to be spending even more time out in the motor pool cleaning out the same storage sheds over and over and over again moreso than lots of other MOS's in the Army because there just isn't anything else that your chain of command has for you to do; if you want to be a migrant worker pulling up weeds and mowing lawns with a push lawnmower out in the hot sun more than other MOS's when the chain of command decides that there's even less for you to do than the motor pool; if you are not married and want the absolute shittiest barracks for such a long time (and remember, the army isn't like the air force where not only does the AF have nicer barracks, but they also let their members leave at the rank of E-4 whereas Army doesn't let unmarried soldiers leave until they reach the rank of E-6) because since you're infantry, you're lower than shit anyway..... have at it hoss. Yes, it is your life but you can't blame people for thinking you're an idiot and/or someone who isn't normal and is absolutely filthy.
