haha shit this was funny to watch again -the very first video , where it all began ,, circa 2012

[@cymonewilliams931]

JTsuits Any advice for a girlfriend of a navy man.? How long is bootcamp.? When can you talk to your family.?

[@bcomes1550]

You were so serious in this video, now you're a f*ckin nut haha :D

[@GraceTerrellforever99]

+JTsuits How old are you

[@jtmnavy]

now I'm almost 25 ,,, back in this video I was 20

[@thetacticalmile2296]

Nah it's all good. This is what I needed. another awkward kid, who seems rather quiet to tell me what this experience was like. I'll check out you're other stuff, but this was good.

[@jtmnavy]

Yes you have a choice where you want to be, but it depends on how good you do in your schooling. If you finish the top of your class than you get a choice of where you want to be stationed. The majority of the people in the Navy will eventually be deployed on a Ship, its just a matter of when.

[@brianlopez9322]

Could I ask to be deployed on a aircraft carrier if I’m in flight support

[@bernardhonaker1992]

Crazy how far you’ve come, amazing. Keep it going

[@yelw2304]

0:00 thus a legend was born a life where a man meets girl and gets a dog named Papa who goes onto have a future Navy seal baby name Weston as Mrs.Suits wanted to name the baby Easton but Jt said it sounded too much like the baseball glove so they name him Weston. In a world where this sexy beast of a man would go onto have a nice house in Washington and pass through 100k subs. Okay I really need a life.

[@jtmnavy]

Lmao 😂

[@yelw2304]

Gotta rep gotta tell your story haha

[@mobentertainment5031]

That sounds like a hell of a movie

[@brendanef9]

LOLOLOL I CANT this is so different from your videos now

[@xCIHIRIS]

Thank you for this. Being 18, joining the Navy right out of high school, it's a little nerve racking not knowing what to expect. This really did shed some light and some hope that it really isn't going to be how it is in all the crazy movies that you see, lol.

[@jtmnavy]

I am a plane captain , Landing Signalman Enlisted , and I can also make repairs.

[@jtmnavy]

I am a Aviation Structural Mechanic. I work on MH-60 Romeos. I'm an E-5 and have been in 3 1/2 years.

[@navy4735]

all serious and formal..LOL....you've grown up ! hahahahaha~~~!!!!

[@bobsit1945]

Retired(since 88) Corpsman. Very impressed with your presentation and to your answers to the questions in the comment section. Keep up the good work

[@shanicesanchez4635]

Thank you Sooooo much for this video, I was having my doubts on the navy and when you actually broke it down it reminded me that the experience is going to be great and I shouldn't judge it on bootcamp plus the schools. Appreciate that really much

[@jtmnavy]

Hey everyone... Just got back from my 3rd deployment. Good luck to everyone leaving to RTC. I have some other videos on my channel if you have more questions about the Navy. Thanks and have a good day!

[@atachanka3578]

throwback

[@jtmnavy]

the 1st

[@atachanka3578]

JTsuits ye about to binge watch them all over again

[@y3llowdukyairsoft435]

Best thing I heard all my life never quit and don't be a quitter. gonna be always thinking of it in bootcamp.

[@mikehattias5837]

Don't be nervous. Keep a positive attitude. You're gonna have a lot of fun in the Navy.

[@twich_rade5134]

I came back to the beginning after watching you video on your depression. I will be watching all your videos from the beginning to the newest.

[@misstajay9697]

@JTsuits decided to see where the legend all began. Not disappointed

[@Weewee2013]

You should continue to make more videos. I like how u get to the point and not get side tracked on other topics like most videos.

[@jtmnavy]

good luck bro ..... i know a lot of AS"s .......yeah squadrons are the way to go.... You will be on a ship more than likely, you will be working on all the support equipment , like tow tractors, generators , nitrogen carts ect .... your job is pretty much to trouble shoot them and find out whats wrong and then fix it..... Its a pretty cool job

[@Jinxrr]

2019 anyone ???

[@Almondina]

You were soooo calm “back in the day”😂😂😂😂

[@brizzylong1707]

ThankYou!

[@dustinwarren5158]

Thanks man all your videos really help a lot I ship out in a week or so!

[@jtmnavy]

Dustin Warren gettin' them pre-bootcamp jitters :P

[@dustinwarren5158]

Yes!!! Its annoying I just want to come out of boot camp an e3 if possible

[@jtmnavy]

haha yeah, I went in as an e-1 , came out e-2 , and then waited 9 months and put on e-3 , then made e-4 and e-5 first time up :P

[@dustinwarren5158]

Congrats I hope to do that!

[@JapanWalkerJJ]

Dustin Warren How was it

[@archmichael5332]

Thanks for the reply...I have re-evaluated my thought about the military...Thanks anyways wish you the best of luck!

[@halvey8518]

This is crazy how he started his first video like he's been doing his last. Always helping future seaman behind him

[@jtmnavy]

awesome good luck .... japan is great , the people are really polite, and theres a lot to go see and do... its also very easy to get around the cities... the train system is very easy to use.....

[@MezzBeChillin]

Thanks man I scored low a 44 on my asvab so my options were limited but I do plan on taking it over once I get in

[@skelitalmisfit12]

thank you so much! that helped me with some of my stress:) i appreciate your swift response! i got 9 days left. lol nervous...

[@LivingUpstate]

I'm going to watch everyone of your videos starting from this one.

[@jtmnavy]

haha ;)

[@LivingUpstate]

+JTsuits so funny you just replied. I'm on Navy Life on a Aircraft Carrier. Shower shoes. glue trick for not stepping on certain stuff lol.

[@jtmnavy]

i was 19 ... i am now about to be 22 with 1 year left in the navy unless i decide to re-enlist.

[@grap951]

gl man !

[@barbhorses]

Thanks for the video. I leave 25SEP13 for Navy boot camp. My rate is IC, so my A School is in the Great Lakes for 4 months. Really excited and can't wait!

[@jtmnavy]

Yes, to an extent. It depends how you do in "A" school. For most rates, if you finish top of your class, you get to pick where you want to be stationed out of what is available.

[@dakandeesh]

You can see the difference from now and then. You have so much energy now but in this video you are ded. Going to boot campDecember 13 been binge watching your videos and finally subscribed yesterday thanks for the videos man. @JTsuits

[@jtmnavy]

haha i was definitely camera shy ;)

[@angemelaa4204]

i cant wait for the navy! thank you for the tips :)

[@jtmnavy]

Yes , I went home after A school for about 12 days ... then i went to C school. It depends on how fast you have to check in to your new command after A school. So i didn't have to be in my C school till october 2011 , and i graduated A school in september 2011 ... so i gotta a couple weeks off.

[@jtmnavy]

Ah no worries man, I have a little fear of needles myself and I was fine. Your going to be so tired that first week that your going to barely even remember it.... They basically have everybody in a line, and you walk down a hallway. There are people with the shots at each end of the hallway. Takes about 2 minutes to get everything, than your done :) ...... Don't stress out about things like that, just take it one day at a time. GL !

[@jtmnavy]

awesome thanks for the response , just need some other topics people have questions about .

[@BackTheARay]

Damn this concept has f'in took off huh bro... you are on your way young JT

[@professional_tool_user]

Right now its "WHADUPP FAAAM? This is ya boi JT!!" With more inked arms

[@NuckenFutzz]

Hey dude, thanks for the video. It's quite informative. I've been planning on joining the Navy for a while and your video and a few others have made me feel better about it all. I'm actually looking forward to Basic Training now. Seems like I'll learn a lot of useful skills there. I think I'll make some videos of my own, also. Probably one before Basic, after Basic and then a few more following that.

[@ammarsq505]

are you hear me ?

[@jtmnavy]

yes the "schooling" is only 5 weeks, but that's not counting the time you will be waiting to class up in pensacola after bootcamp. You also will go to C school most likely in san diego or jacksonville. I was in pensacola for A school for 2 months , than I was in jacksonville for C school for a total of 3 months before i went to my first squadron.

[@grantameele421]

This video should be saved for future generations so they can see the birth of The Legend.

[@dankdandy]

JT The G.O.A.T!

[@pongii1237]

Cool just found this video. I will definitely subscribe!

[@pats4lifebb]

It's funny you still respond to comments on these old vids...speaking of which, I love your channel, but this video has been as useful to me as any...LOL

[@whitegriffin92093]

Thanks. I plan on joining in 2018.

[@mayonnaiseman7505]

thus my quest to watch all of your videos in chronological order

[@jtmnavy]

enjoy the journey lol

[@arturoamador1989]

thanks this helped!

[@jtmnavy]

What I meant was that you will have to wait in DEP a lot longer than a couple years ago. For most jobs you are going to be waiting 3 months to a year before you even ship out to bootcamp. It's because there are so many people trying to join the military, ever since the economy took a hit

[@icecrush82]

the navy is one of the best branch beside the AF.They provide excellent training for IT and electricians

[@jtmnavy]

Yes , you will serve time on a ship .... there are certain jobs where you dont though.. P-3 squadrons never get deployed on ships , they fly out to different countries and work from land , there are other jobs you can get into but its very difficult

[@jtmnavy]

good luck bro , remember the first 2 weeks are going to suck , after that it's going to be a lot easier

[@jtmnavy]

Well being a CS in general has its ups and downs.... The plus side of being a cook in the Navy is that you can get a lot of hook ups and connections on the ship because everybody loves food :) .. The bad parts are that you work really long hours out at sea, and if your a e-4 and below you will probably just be making big batches of rice our vegetables ect ..... Now if you are an MA in the Navy, you will have good training that will help you be a cop when you get out...

[@kingx00]

great video bro

[@lIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlI]

Wow

[@grap951]

good info , good luck on maing e-5

[@rebeccavoll7029]

Thanks i'm less stressed about going!

[@grap951]

Yes, you can take college classes for free while you are active duty through tuition assistance. You have to be with your squadron for 1 year though before they let you apply for classes. Although some squadrons make exceptions. When we are deployed, we work 12 on 12 off , while we are on the beach we work usually 8-10 hours with the weekends off.

[@nodaysofftv843]

Lol here in 2017 my boyyyyy papa!!!

[@jtmnavy]

I got 3 tattoos in A school ...... as long as they are on your upper arm or chest / back and they can't see it while your in your PT gear your fine ... The rules for my squadron though are you can get a tattoo on any part of your body besides your neck, as long as you can cover it up with your hand

[@danktron666]

Yo dawg, ur vids help out alot tried to enlist this year but got wait listed for some medical shit, plan on enlisting next year ill be 21 dont think thats to old but do you suggest any specific rates and places to be stationed, i hate seein all the kids sayin negative shit kinda turns me away but not really im gonna do it, thanks G

[@Tbhivstd]

2018!!! Wow your videos were waaaay different back then

[@pw8831]

Thanks for the tips man, I'm just getting the ball rolling on joining and my biggest concerns are about those first couple weeks of boot camp. I know they'll be tough mentally and I just don't want to be one of the quitters or one of the people who pussies out and makes something up at the Moment of Truth

[@jtmnavy]

you'll do fine brother, your already 1 step ahead of everyone else by doing research

[@commanderfox3666]

How was it?

[@jtmnavy]

If you are attached to a squadron, than you will only go on deployment when the ship your squadron is attached to goes on deployment. If your ship is in dry docks or getting worked on ect., than you will be on the beach. You won't always be on a ship when you are with a squadron, you most likely will go on a 6 month deployment every 2 years or so.

[@NFAQs]

OMG, Baby JT!!

[@jamesmoore7517]

I can't wait to join the navy.

[@grap951]

No worries... The last I heard, the Navy is still taking people, but you will have along wait in DEP (Delayed Entry Program). The most likely scenario is you will enlist, but have to wait from 3 months to a year before you even go to bootcamp. Unless you qualify for a spec ops job or nuke, those jobs go really quick. The dental and health is great. I can go set up an appointment for teeth cleaning whenever i want, same thing if i'm having a medical issue.

[@ac7563]

dude, thanks for the video. I 'm sorta nervous about it all, but I'm sure it'll be fine.

[@jtmnavy]

yeah man just stay positive , take it day by day

[@ac7563]

thanx

[@Sumoto999]

I picked Ships company; and I got stationed at San Deigo. Do I have to live on the ship 24/7 or can I also apply to live on a barracks?

[@jtmnavy]

You'll get time for leave more than likely after your A school ... Usually 2-3 weeks....

[@MR.F30]

The best part of the navy is bootcamp through A school!!! Best time ever.

[@pipeman3088]

He's absolutely rite !! I loved it! Regret getting out!

[@MetallicaKing48]

As for boot camp for the Navy, being a good enough swimmer is needed too. Learn to do dead man floats, learn the breast or side stroke, pass the minimum time limits, high dive, all of that. I had a cousin and an uncle who both were Navy. And they told me that it's an obvious give away, swimming IS required. Gun training with airsoft also gets you into the slight feel of it, while boot camp has simulating guns that mimic real recoil.

[@jtmnavy]

I'm a Aviation Structural Mechanic .. I am also a qualified Plane Captain and Landing Signalman Enlisted.

[@jtmnavy]

Aviation Structural Mechanic , schooling was probably a total of 6 months...

[@jacobam98]

When did "what up fam welcome back for a braaaaannn new bbbrrrrraaaaaaaaannnnn new" come along?

[@JessicaMeiners]

Dang bro your KZbin famous now. I'm gonna show mom and she will probably cry haha

[@hodan8905]

Wow you were so calm back then.

[@jtmnavy]

😭😁

[@maxpower6979]

2020...This channel aged well!!

[@jtmnavy]

right now im in atsugi japan

[@1brandau4me]

Ive been in Japan 6 years now, Always wanted to be in the Navy, never wanted to be in the middle east. Started studying Japanese and Chinese for that reason. I got hooked by the easy life i could live here as an English teacher and interpreter. But, Im very done with that life now and looking to join the Navy at 27 and finally get down to it. Hows life in the the pacific in the Navy? I don't know how much you can say , but Good or bad are suitable answers!

[@joshhankins989]

Hey man, I lived at Atsugi for awhile. LOVED it. How is it over there these days?

[@jtmnavy]

not bad ... 40's and low 50's lately ... snowed last week

[@BecomingTheJames]

good evening..my significant other just left for boot camp at great lakes today. we were told by different people to wait til get married after boot camp. But now their telling him he's going straight to a-school after boot camp (california) . so how is it even possible for us to get married. of course i haven't talk to him so i don't know if he knows any new information. we have two children 2 yr& 2 month old. I'm trying to stay strong for our family but the thought of not being reunited is killing me...I don't know much about the military at all this is all new for me..hope you can read this soon. thank you

[@jtmnavy]

He will be able to take leave and fly out to you after his A school so you can get married. Being married in the Military gives you a lot of benefits and will be very helpful for your family. Tell him to talk to his Chain of Command so he can go see you.

[@zachattack3763]

I cant help it. I'm gonna make a reaction video to one of these 5 year old ones tomorrow.

[@jeffreystamps6838]

If your not part of a squadron you live on a ship all the time? What makes you part of a squadron? What wont make you part of one?

[@christianleeperrr7641]

Haha! This is awesome!

[@Gabbelina8]

I'm thinking about joining the navy so thanks for the info. BTW, you're very handsome.

[@jeffreyrobert364]

Difference between squadron rate or jobs and others? Are you on a ship less often or not live on a ship?

[@Camerdecali]

Thank you so much for answering my questions. is it possible to go to school at the same time, what are the working hours?

[@ChaseGouldMMA]

Hey man thanks for sharing, I'm really interested in joining the Navy. I'm curious what is your rate?

[@TJTroubleMaker]

I've been thinking about joining the navy, just finished college and not really having luck finding a job/career. I guess I could try to go in as an officer since i have a degree. A small part of me is pretty addicted to video games, kind of scared of basically not being able to play xbox as silly as that sounds, been playing it for over 10 years.

[@jtmnavy]

I was addicted to video games as well before I joined. Being in the Military put a lot of things in perspective and now I don't even play anymore. But yes, you will still have plenty of time to play xbox after bootcamp ....

[@jadlad3024]

jtmnavy how important is education in the navy

[@mikedavis5686]

So what do you do in your down time? What can you do in your down time? Also thank you for this video, I was having a hard time finding anything on this subject.

[@thomasbill9697]

i've been in for two years now. once you get out of bootcamp you are basically free to do whatever you want. you just have to be back in at certain times. you can play video games for 8 hours a day if you want. its up to you man

[@jtmnavy]

i have come across a lot of people that are still learning proper English. The language barrier isn't really that big of a deal in the navy.

[@darrenpolitte9715]

when your are at boot camp do you buy your own shampoo and conditioner and is it suplied or can we bring our own

[@jtmnavy]

Yes you are allowed to date other sailors , but they can not be officers or chiefs or your supervisor , because that is fraternization. And we are not paid by the hour. We get a certain amount of pay each month depending on what rank you are. Also I get an extra 320 dollars a month for food. And if your married you can get up to 2000 dollars for housing costs.

[@Camerdecali]

So my contract says that the schooling in only 5 weeks, were you in a different program? and how did you become a plane captain, and LSE..thank you for answering my questions by the way

[@9999plato]

No civilian clothes for the first 3 months for our command at FLEASWTRACENPAC. I was a Sonar Technician. Our sonar A school was all classroom time. Other schools depended on what it was. We had one school on how to load torpedoes onto helicopters. It was a lot of hands on. Real laid back because we were in the fleet a while. I have been out long enough to spawn a new generation of serviceman but all these years later, despite how there were times I hated and wondered who I crossed to get this bullshit detail I look back with fondness and would go do a deployment right now. It's an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime, not like the time YOU drank a bunch of beer from that place who didn't clean their taps out and you shit yourself at quarters. Quarters is like role call in the morning where you get your duties and hear of the ships plan for the day. POD. Yes we had a Petty Officer Shitty in our Division. He got sent to Alcohol Rehab. That happens too if you cant behave responsibly and show up for work in the morning cuz you are wasted. If you can do it and don't have a job waiting at Daddy's business or college all paid for, if you haven't a clue about what you want to do, and have no marketable skills, live in some dead end town where Walmart is the major employer, are just sitting on mommy's couch being a load on your parents, walk, no, run to your recruiters office. At the very least you will learn one thing, you don't want to spend your life in the Military. You can go to school with the GI bill, get ahead of other people when applying for any government jobs, get a great GI home loan. A great deal considering you are some know nothing, slack jawed, cant stand straight gamer with nothing on the ball. Go see the world, drink beer, get accosted by strange women in foreign ports looking to share their social disease with you for a few dollars. Ah the Sailors life for me!

[@jonbarns292]

+JTsuits What place did you go to that you had a lot of freedom??

[@TheKingigi]

cool video man thanks helped alot so about that tattoo you have how many can you have and when cant they be

[@mzluvablex3]
