Navy Dive School Class 17-40-2C/DMT/CG

[@LaliceIt]

Very hard and very beatyful. My compliments

[@Nomad_TraderX]

Oh man, I wish we had video like this back in the day (EOD 10-B-97). I would have known what was happening above me! Haha. You aren't allowed to look up from the bottom of the pool when they are doing hits during pool week. Sometimes I would swim in circles for over an hour without getting hit (literally). All you could hear was bubbles. After a while you learn to listen for the sound of the beep when the instructor sets the time on their watch...then the fun begins. Hooyah!

[@vicrod1389]

Leaving to bootcamp with my diver contract in december

[@devonjp1233]

Good luck and have fun!

[@vicrod1389]

can I email you ? I have some questions about the prep and about dive school !

[@devonjp1233]

Vic Rod absolutely better yet just message me on Instagram. @Devonjp123

same man, december 13

[@jorgeloli2815]

yup ND contract

[@Bostinzr2]

Are there any resources online that help prepare for this training?

[@zachb3781]

How bad is being thrown around in the water. And do they teach you how to use the scuba stuff before messing you all up?

[@devonjp1233]

Yes they teach you how to dive before they toss you around. And it's not bad. Probably one of the cooler parts of school looking back.

[@justliving1675]

Love the video man. Did you guys have any prior service guys who cross rated into diver in your class? Or do you know of anyone who did that?

[@devonjp1233]

Just Living yeah 2 navy guys had prior service and the 4 coasties did because they have to in order to be a diver but the whole rest of the class were straight out of boot

[@Accidental_Medicine]

5 navy prior service"

[@aundreacozad3484]

What are the chances of a female making it through dive school?

[@devonjp1233]

Aundrea Cozad same chances as a guy. There was a girl in our class and she did well. All that matters is how much you want it and if you have what it takes you'll make it

[@Accidental_Medicine]

We actually had one female in our class, and the class behind us had one too. It's all a state of mind.

[@razziez]

Holy fuck the pool week seems brutal. One guy looked like he quit moving.

[@Nomad_TraderX]

@@razziez I remember losing most of the people before pool week even started.

[@damienpalladino8797]

@@Nomad_TraderX Why do alot of them fail/drop out?

[@Dra741]

Just think about it if you trained to fight underwater oh, you know what to protect, and if you get proficient at it you able to Fight 2 3 4 5 people in the water, so you coming to recover a lost missile that we don't want the enemy to have the avionics 2 and 1 diver, beats off five or six divers because he knows how to fight underwater and that's what I like about this video, you don't expect nobody to jump in the water and take your oxygen

[@gublicity]

I have a question. When those instructors are essentially thrashing you guys around obviously your not aloud to panic or hit them but like do you have to move them or just surface wait it out or stay calm. And also thank you for your service.

[@devonjp1233]

For the pool hits they rough you up for about a minute or so and then back off and you fix it. You absolutely can't touch the instructors, or go to surface. You just stay calm wait for it to be over and fix you problem and continue swimming

[@thechef19791]

You just go limp and kind of let it happen

[@keaganhickle2547]

Hey I want to know bc I wanted to go welding underwear for my future so how can I find the place to go for learning about welding underneath for navy?

[@devonjp1233]

So navy divers don't do much underwater welding anymore. I think Seabee divers do more but most of the welding work for the navy gets contracted out

[@Accidental_Medicine]

Gonna miss you guys.

[@bubba5497]

Any tips for when instructors do the pool hits, I leave January with an eod contract

[@devonjp1233]

bubba5497 pool hits are nothing to worry about man you'll be fine. In fact it's fair to say that pool hits one of the most fun times in dive school haha

[@bubba5497]

devon Jp123 okay sweet, now they always cut the video after they close the air valve and push you around. I'm assuming you then have to recover your regulator and turn your air back on

[@devonjp1233]

bubba5497 yeah the hit takes about 20 seconds and then a few minutes of the diver fumbling around to put everything back together so they don't usually show it in videos cause it's not that exciting haha but yeah there's a whole bunch of procedures you do to get everything ready again

[@bubba5497]

devon Jp123 okay one more question I promise how long are you typically holding you breath for this evolution

[@devonjp1233]

bubba5497 no worries haha but maybe a minute two It all depends on how fast you can fix your tanks. If you ever have more questions feel free to message me on Instagram my username is the same as his one

[@Beanboy1515]

Is this strictly a Diver class? Or are EOD guys mixed in?

[@devonjp1233]

Benjamin Hicks this is just diver. EOD goes to dive school as well but it's shorter than this. They go for about 9 weeks

[@Beanboy1515]

devon Jp123 thanks my man, I ship out in January with an EOD contract. Hope to see you around

[@devonjp1233]

Benjamin Hicks absolutely man. Have fun 🤙

[@joshuahause128]

Can't wait!

[@janosz362]

How many guys that started out made it?

[@devonjp1233]

Michael Janosz so my prep started with something like 36 and only about 15 made it the dive school we classed up with another class so we started back to 30 or so again and graduated with 24 ish

[@janosz362]

devon Jp123 oh nice! I've been working out like crazy trying to prepare for dive school

[@damienpalladino8797]

@@devonjp1233 What is this "finning" I have heard preppers talk about?

[@devonjp1233]

@@damienpalladino8797 finning is essentially treading with fins on. It's to build up strength in your ankles and legs so when you do weighted treads you don't burn out and fail

[@settt4760]

How should I prepare before I come?

[@devonjp1233]

SETTT 47 tread with weight and run a lot would be your best advise also make sure you’re good at the calisthenics and beat down workouts and stuff so those aren’t as brutal

[@settt4760]

devon Jp123 Ight bro I appreciate it

[@jasonfromdabay8009]

I have some questions

[@devonjp1233]

Feel free to message me I'll be happy to answer any questions you have

[@Joseph981000]

What’s the most difficult parts of dive school?

[@devonjp1233]

Joseph Nguyen I would be more concerned with prep. Dive school isn’t that bad

[@justliving1675]

What is prep like?

[@devonjp1233]

Just Living so the first 4 weeks you do a combination of calisthenics and learning about maintenance that applies to divers and then the last 2 weeks is pool week where you pretty much get the shit beat out of you with water adaptability tests like treading and iwps and stuff
