Marine & Air Force brothers Q&A

Marine and Air Force brother Q&A. My brother is a Marine in the United States Marine Corps and I'm an Airman in the United States Air Force. We took questions you guys asked us about life in the Air Force and life in the Marine Corps and answered them in this video together comparing the Marines vs Air Force.

[@bruceleroye]

you wanna know the difference....look at the way each of them eats

[@fortgrove3166]

Great video. I was a former Marine in Okinawa in the 80s (I use to party at the E-club in Kadena) and now in the US Army in Korea. I am a Chief Warrant Officer with 26 years in service and three combat tours. My next assignment is my last. Keep it up and stay in as long as you can. Semper Fi.

[@XxWoWglitchesxX]

Cw3? 4? Nice man. What's your mos?

[@royeby3640]

I miss being stationed at Camp Kinser, Okinawa, Japan, for a total of 8 years there.

[@tut08]

Dude with the cheese hanging off his chin at the beginning...CLEARLY the Marine. And I mean that in the best way possible, lol.

[@caligirl3000]

Right? LMAO!!!!

[@joeydohrmann5224]

I'm just going to say that that is a typical Marine. Guzzled down the food.

[@twright3802]

You are so right.

[@CranesV2]

It's the same with the Navy. After 25 years of leaving the Navy, my dad still eats faster than I've ever seen anyone eat

[@acsrgaming9194]

Its cause he ain't talking. He's just stuffing his face.

[@joeydohrmann5224]

+ACSR Gaming it's because he has food in front of him

[@Dumpsterfoot]

i love how you can tell which one is which right off the bat because one has had the entire soul drained out of his body and you can see in his eyes that he just has no motivation left to offer and the other one is in the Air Force

[@lilmalcolm515]

The coincidence of both being in Japan is crazy to me haha

[@evansaber7642]

Facts

[@bobafett7558]

The financial advice you give is golden. This goes beyond the military, this is something everyone needs to hear.

[@Fede_uyz]

so the marine played with gi joes, the airman with barbies... yeah, that says it all. jk only love for all branches

[@whittyhuton4622]

And you played with...yourself?

I ship off for the Navy in 2 weeks and I'll be becoming the Navy's public/media specialist which is Mass Communication Specialist. I'm super stoked! Thanks for your service man

Air Force guy looks like he could beat the hell out of his Marine brother.

[@MarkyyMar]

lol looks can be deceiving tho! They both have nice bodies ;)

well im not hiding it......

+jeff carpentier The Marine guy is swinging with the wing. Not as salty as a grunt

[@summerdixon7171]

jeff carpentier not so sure the marine brother has a dead look in his eyes. It's dangerous he looks like a trained killer or like he would kill ruthlessly if he had to.

[@redandbow]

You can tell he's a jarhead... Eat it now and taste it later..... oorah !!!!!

yes

[@playgirl120011]

My two sons, Nick 23-Marines, Zane 20-Air Force and I am a Navy brat. Love the military!

[@ErikaGarcia-su7bd]

It's so funny because both of my parents served in the military as Marines and I told them I wanted to join the military, but I wanted to go Air Force . They weren't all for it but like you guys said it's what I want to do and I have a reason for wanting to go Air Force, just like they had a reason to go Marines. I don't have anything against the Marines, how could I? I Was born into it Lol.

[@joshuawalker8585]

Well ur not respect go af

How was your Air Force experience?

[@debferguson7354]

Im actually married to a Marine and i leave for Air Force BMT May 5th 2015. I grew up Air Force (Both parents were active duty), A LOT of your videos have helped me learn what I need to know. So thanks!!

[@BlurredUniverse357]

Married to a Marine and your going to be in the AF? I don't know how y'all will possibly be stationed together. Good luck on that one...

[@katuriankaturiankaturian6507]

[@derrickayala4525]

Watching your videos are the highlight of my day when I have nothing else better to do. And the fact that it's a hour long video! Keep it up

[@JimmyDShea]

All I could think about for the entirety of this video was, "COCO'S CURRY." I left the island in 2009 and miss CoCos so much! Great videos, keep it up!

[@Bobsonomatic]

Cool video idea. My brother and I were also USAF-USMC (I was AF). We were stationed three hours from one another from 2006-08. Good times.

[@TvMaNightmareHD]

Thanks for all the information gentlemen, I'm currently having to decided between the air force and Marines. This was very helpful for me

[@evansaber7642]

ZephyrStorm same

[@A_Random_Rat]

A choice between brains or brawns. Both are super respectable, good luck to any future Airmen and Marines!

[@corybreaux4851]

lol the usmc commercials do work, i saw the one with this dude running "toward the sounds of chaos" around 7 years ago when i was 8-9 years old (15 now) and i wanted to be a marine ever since

[@seancrouch2113]

Also USAF spec ops go through jump school, sere, free fall, combat dive, and qualify in more weapons. (Hardly the corperation life)

Excellent insight! Prior AF here, trying to get my son, 22, off his butt and into the AF. Aim high, right? Great job, bros! Semper Fidelis! And I did make E-5 under 4 years in the AF -80-'84, CE, Electrician. Don't really hear of that anymore to my understanding and even back then it was rare. It's what you make of it as well.

[@matthewtaylorbrown]

Retired Air Force here, fun to hear two brothers in two branches. Don't trust everything recruiters say. They lied to me about my AFSC and how many people would share a room in basic training.

[@bloo22ca]

I'm an MH-53 Pave Low Air Force Vet. Now out, 45 and retired. I like to see a brotherhood among branches. I was Special Ops and worked with Rangers, Delta Force, Seals and Marines. This was a refreshing video to watch. I got SRA. below the zone, pretty much 6 months early E-4 pay. Keep it up guys and God speed too you both.

Marines kick butt! Air Force kick back. JK. Thanks for your service.

[@Unmedicated_Moments]

-_-.....OORAH!

[@damiankim8452]

haha..i guess ill kick back then ^^

[@JohnZ2023]

Can somebody enlighten me on why people laugh at people in the Airforce, what type of IDIOT would willingly choose to go die in a stupid ass war? Going to die for a country /government that gives two shits for them

[@Unmedicated_Moments]

+Addison Sarter They aren't choosing to go die. They are serving their country and showing that they would truly die for it. Some go for the experience, some go for the brotherhood. All do it because they love their country. Airmen typically get desk jobs and sit around all day. They aren't risking their lives. Pilots, Jtac, and Pararescue do though. That's small compared to the Army and Marine MOSs that put your life on the line.

[@JohnZ2023]

+Old glory I appreciate the answer, but somebody like myself who can't afford college at the moment and would like to get it paid for by joining the military but at the same time doesn't wanna risk their life for a country that shows they don't care about veterans/ or doesn't doesn't wanna risk their lives dying for a war they don't believe in, is not "weak or a pussy" I think it's simply called being "smart".

[@kylemackercher8120]

I feel like I am in the same situation. I am Air Force, my neighbors a Marine, and we live in Okinawa as well (go CoCos). So much of what you guys talked about is exactly what we talked, and he even gave me a Sergeant's POV of the Marines. I think Air Force definitely has a better living

[@alessiar.359]

Thanks for your service guys!

[@BramMW]

Very cool video. Probably the longest youtube vid I ever watched all the way through. Thanks!

[@alexmanns4691]

USMC PT= 3 miles in 18 minutes, 20 pull ups, and 100 crunches in under 2 minutes

[@OhDefined]

Not true. Entry level PT standards for the Marine Corps are 1.5mi in under 13:30. 2 pull ups. And 44 crunches 2mins. Regular PT eval is 3mi 22mins, 25 pull ups/ 2min flexed arm hang, and 150 crunches under 2mins.

[@alexmanns4691]

+Johnny Frost who said entry? I'm saying that's the requirements the corps strives it's marines to achieve. male marines do not perform the flex arm hang... i have no clue where you got the 22 minute 3 mile... max time depending on age is 28 minutes

[@alexmanns4691]

+Johnny Frost and 20 pull ups is still the max for score

[@alexmanns4691]

+Johnny Frost Anand max crunches for score is still 100

[@OhDefined]

+Alex Manns I thought you meant entry level. Sorry bout that. I'm going into recruiting duty right now and I'm learning new things.

[@tonyvet2278]

I served In Marine Corps infantry for 4 years and then switched to the Air Force. I should do a video!

[@AuziFox]

Tony stevens How was the transition?

[@bpike42]

That's cool that you get to be stationed together. What the hell are you eating?

[@andrewclark7543]

***** notice how the marine is eating all messy and AF has it all separated lol

[@AbandonedYTAccount]

I was an E-3 Aviation Supply Clerk 6672. Best advice you can do to move up the rank is keep your nose clean, stay out of trouble, do your MCI's and know your job inside out. Private to Lance Corpal is easy. Once you hit E-4 you have to go on Boards with several other soldiers. Board members select who is more deserving on promotion

[@AbandonedYTAccount]

+Kara Ayers IN promotion in rack there are key factors Time in service, Time in current rank, MOS knowledge, and any question from code of conduct , rank structure, history on Uniforms/ your group of service, and many other Things.

[@MikeAdamsVlog]

I really like this vlog. I've already watched it twice strait through, because I'm struggling to decide if Marine or Airforce best suits me. I hope you can make videos with you two showing the pros & cons of each lifestyle. To me it seems marines are cool in the military scene and airforce is cool in the life-style scene. I don't like how pay is the same even if marines are treated like dirt while they risk their lives, while airforce keeps clean without touching the battleground. Where does this all weigh equally? What keeps marines motivated even if inequality treated?

[@ChiefTomcat]

+Hakujin Mike No all Marine's are in the middle of the battlefield. Every branch of service has support guys and guys who are on the frontlines. Every branch has jobs that are easier than others and jobs that are suckier than others. I was an F-16 crew chief in the Air Force and we had to work 12 hour shifts and be out in the cold or heat getting jets in the air. I wasn't on the frontline, but we took a lot of indirect fire on the base. Being lower ranked you'll pretty much always get the sucky job, but as you progress and gain rank you can make the difference in how subordinates are treated. I got out as a Staff Sergeant, I never forgot where I came from and I always treated the guys with the respect that they deserved. Hope this helps a little.

[@ChiefTomcat]

+ChiefTomcat Not* all Marine's.

[@Renram22]

lol those marine commercials are pretty lit.. 😂

[@jamesgormaniv3001]

[@andrewp4666]

Unless your infantry, piloting, or medic/corpsman in any branch, your'e most likely a POG. Only 10% see combat.

[@timl998]

If I were to join, what would be a cool job in army active duty that isn't infantry? And navy? Trying to decide which one

[@jonathonfemmer351]

Im joining the Navy and im enlisting to be an HM. But originally i decided that i wanted to do ABH. Just go to this website navygirl.org/RatingCards.htm and just look through them!

[@harambe2130]

It depends on what you want to do. The Army has more careers but you will most likely be deployed longer. The Navy has shorter deployments(correct me if I'm wrong) but has fewer jobs(again, correct me if I'm wrong) and you will be most likely be deployed on a ship. So, there are a few variables. But if you want to take the combat route(but not infantry), Artillery or Military Police would be best if you want to see combat but not go to infantry. For Navy, Corpsman(medic in the Navy, can be deployed w/ Marines) is a good choice. If you want to be an officer, you might be able to join an ANGLICO. It's a group of mostly marines w/ some Navy officers that calls in air/artillery.

[@hobes9]

Navy AW. look it up. there is like 5 sub rating.

[@joshgray3888]

What do you like computers, trucks, management, combat, flight, intel, admins, animals, medical? Did you take the ASVAB test yet, if so send me your test results.

[@tylercaracanas8690]

That’s crazy. I’m here because my aunt is either an E-7 or E-8 in the Air Force and my dad was in the Marines but luckily got out right before 9/11. My name is Tyler and my brothers name is Kyle haha. Thank you for all the info with the Air Force, I have to wait until Monday to scheduled another ASVAB!

[@Hueydabest]

Watching this video makes me hopeful, but a bit depressed as well. I really do hope I get into the Air Force. Been going on two weeks waiting to hear back about my vision waiver.(myopia) Heard it's gonna take a while to hear back, so my life is on hold right now. I didn't expect to get DQ'd for my vision, so now I'm unemployed and not attending college this spring semester. Regardless, the whole experience from the recruiter to MEPS was incredible.

[@bryanmabini9608]

For now man, all you can do is enjoy life with your family and friends, cuz when the time comes. Its gonna be hard, you won't see your family as much. You will be home sick, its hard. It does take a while so have patience and live life before BMT.

[@saeeddarwish.]

I'm in the same boat man except I have a waiver for something else. I didn't enroll for spring semester at my university and I the job I had was provided by the school so i'm also jobless. I just hope everything works out because I feel like I've been waiting forever

[@trick_biscuit7424]

As for Reservists, we have a lot of opportunities for full time work. It can be more than 2 days a month depending on your job. Also more opportunities to cross train, more signing bonuses and you’re stationed in your State. Study for the ASVAB get a high score and you will have more job picks. Oh, you also get to pick your job. It is what you make it.
