11 THINGS THAT SHOCKED ME WHEN I JOINED THE NAVY

[@soteriamediaproductions6165]

For those of you going into the Navy, that haven’t left yet, everything this guy says is spot on. The thing is, while it will all be new, it will also get to be normal for you. There are two kinds of enlistees, those that let it all break them and those that let it all shape them. You can, if you choose right, and most do, come out on the other side stronger, with great character, and able to take on this crazy world when you get out.

[@athena6693]

What you said was really powerful. I definitely will be taking this in and won’t forget it. What u said was real sht 👏🏼

[@grant4360]

Are you an officer, enlisted, warrant... etc?

[@rileydeleon6589]

I’ve been in the navy for a year now and there are many valid points he brings up but we must all remember that this is his POV. My experience so far has been absolute hell. Just survive and try to find those good moments to motivate you to make it through the next day.

[@cocosack8692]

What’s ur rate ?

[@ravenopenheart2649]

Riley…it’s ok…the first enlistment is hell on everyone. We all go through it and it sucks. But you will learn things about yourself you never expected…good and bad. One thing for sure you will never forget the experience. It changes when you re-enlist. Your seen as real Navy…but it will always be a bitch. It will suck..and you will get pissed….but all jobs are like that. Do your time…learn all you can..I know you think I am crazy…I am 60 years old…I miss my Navy life and all it showed me…one day you will to. Raven

[@omar_in_progress]

What rate did he pick

[@ravenopenheart2649]

You will never forget your first ship. It’s been 40 years since I walked up that gangway...but I still smell the paint, stripper, fuel, and exhaust that hung in the air. Still remember taking my first shower....and getting to my rack to find everything stolen. Boot Camp mistake....made my rack. My first lesson...put everything in my locker....make my bed and get in it...get out...strip the bed and lock everything up. Leave anything out....they will steal you blind. Second very important lesson...put your boots in the bunk with you. We had a compartment fire...diesel fuel fire. All our boots were on the deck....my boots were on fire....had to fight my way out of a burning compartment through fire and black smoke in bare feet! Last big lesson....war sucks. It is still hard to sleep thinking about all the people I helped kill. And you are absolutely right about people....some can take the pressure some just break. On my first week on the ship...I was walking by the print shop when a first class staggered out cover in blood...he collapsed and died right in front of me. A young E3 had gotten pissed....taken apart a pair of sizers and taped them to each hand. As soon as the shop supervisor came back from chow...he was attacked and killed. Crazy ending....it was later determined the shop supervisor drove the young man to kill him. He served no prison time....he went from mental ward to discharge. You see it all in the NAVY. So...you can never be ready for everything...good luck to you all. It will be an adventure you will remember for the rest of your life. Raven...USN DAV RET.

Damn thats crazy and interesting

[@rontreen3278]

Hear here been there done that! I remember to this day and it's been 45 years since I stepped on board the USS America cv-66 an aircraft carrier Pier 12 Norfolk September of 75 and like you said I remember every moment on that dark night I got there.... they put me on scullery Duty the first 3 months... cleaning the damn metal stainless steel prison trays they use for chow for like 12 on 12 off.... and coming back to a rack infested with cockroaches and waking up with them crawling on you.... somebody actually stole my glasses while in the shower and later on broke into my stand-up locked Locker and stoled my portable tape player.... And then went through my personal items in my bottom rack and took my money out of my wallet and left the wallet when I forgot to lock it up to shower up... but I never personally got assaulted or threatened and got along with 90% of the crew.... Every time we were in port on the weekends I would always leave the base and stay in a Motel just to escape the environment...... after 3 months I was assigned to my engineering department... Hydraulics... Steering and elevators which was okay but the watches especially the zero 4 00 / zero 800 were sleep depriving oh.... over all I had some pretty good times mostly bad.... you learn to rise above it and make the best of a bad situation.... being depressed half of the time.... I was glad when my Enlistment was up.... it felt like I was released from prison period....

[@Chris_at_Home]

I did four years from 71-75. I was in a VP Squadron in Brunswick, Maine which had good skiing and outdoor things to do. We would deploy to places like Sicily, Azores and Rota, Spain. I also did a four month detachment around South America staying in hotels and eating at restaurants. Oh what a tough time I didn’t have. I made AX2 in less than three years and the skills I learned helped me have a good career afterwards.

[@ravenopenheart2649]

@@rontreen3278 Hi Ron…just seeing your reply. Just wanted to tell you…I got out my first enlistment as well…became a police officer…quit that crazy ass job…went back in the Navy…and retired. As much as it sucked being in the Navy at times…it really sucked being out. The sea, the travel, never knowing where I was or where I was going just got into my blood. I needed to go…to explore. I have never changed…if not for COVID, I would still be exploring. Thank you for the great story…it was real…and I enjoyed that. Raven

[@carlariggs525]

boot camp is a game; just play their game and don't try to buck the system. whatever you do; don't ask why. there's the right way, the wrong way, and the Navy way. also, play the single game until you're well established. the military is stressful enough without adding a spouse and children to the mix before you're established

[@straightgrizzly]

What shocks me is that alot of people give their pros and cons and you hit it on the head keep it up jose your my mentor now

[@kiltor2]

Wow, I spent 6 years in the Navy and while most of what you said I definitely agree with, We never lost power, always had decent food, and I had been DCPO so in my berthing space even though our thermostat was broken I knew what valves to turn to get Heat or to keep it cold in the Berthing area. Definitely work long hours but If you have a Good Command they maximize inport Liberty time as long as you work hard at Sea. I was on a Destroyer (DD-969) which probably made a difference.

I was a seabee. When i first went in we had duty sections and watch. After my 2nd deployment we went to "professional watchstanders " anyone that was separating or transferring within a few months stood the quarterdeck watch. It was great. No more duty section musters no more walking around on a balls to 4 at the barracks looking for fires that were not happening barracks was across the street from the fire dept anyways. Monday to Friday was 630 to 1530. Unless you were in a class or field exercise. Most of the time if your tasks were done you were told to go hide till 1530 then go do whatever we wanted. Deployment was 6 days a week 12 hour days. Afghanistan was different. I was on convoy security and we would do missions and projects and not much time off unless we were at camp leatherneck.

Spent almost 3 1/2 years on a cruiser in yoko. The last 6 months extended due to covid after i gave up my apartment household goods cause i was about to transfer. And spent the last 6 months on the barge as a paid e5 with a pin. I can honestly say I've had the best my best and worst moments out there. Been on restriction 3 times out there, all bs reasons when I first got there before I knew people and how things worked. Never got in trouble for the actual bad shit I did and once i was a valued memebr of the crew. My closest friend since a school and went to the same ship and jumped off a building on Thanksgiving and my fiance broke up with me due to my depression over it. My first warrant got a dui, first chief was fucking a seamen and got kicked out, and one of my best friends on the ship got sexually assaulted on the ship and nothing was done. Honestly there is so much more bad shit I'd be here all day. But I'll tell ya all the decent people I served with I know have my back and i have theirs. I'd die for them. They've seen me at my worst and best. I've had a fist fight fight with one of them and had them crying on shoulder the next week. I'm bit some combat unit or something in which I'd assume the bind would be even more but u honestly can't understand what certain people went though. Honestly coming back to the states i had to relearn how people act here. Honestly if u seen a veteran in need please help them. Not every veteran is the same but the ones who are troubled typically are the ones had it the hardest.

You forgot to mention the people on a ship that would steal the cup from a blind person on a street begging. The 1st time I took a shower on my ship I put the towel I had used on a chain that was used as a rail for a hatch that was leading down to the deck below. I came back and it was gone. I asked if anyone had seen my towel and nobody had, I learned then and there that you can't trust anyone on a ship. Well almost. It's disgusting, I had dirty clothes stolen from me. What I went through in the Navy made me alot tougher and stronger to never give up. I've been able to survive a stroke, a blood bacteria and cancer. Because of the Navy and God I'm still alive today. I should be 6 feet under right now. And by the grace of God and my time in the Navy I'm not. I had a 50% chance of surviving my cancer, and that's before you take into consideration my blood bacteria, if you took both of them into consideration, then my chances of surviving were probably less then 25% maybe alot less. I just thank God for every day that I'm alive.

[@9999plato]

I was on an FFG and as a Sonar Tech we had a bunch of spaces to use. The forward equipment room was where I kept my stereo and the guy in my division could use it. I kept a bass amp and my friend played drums. The CSO played guitar. It was pretty kicked back but I know my experience was WAY different than other divisions, even other divisions in combat systems(the smarter, less sketchy people) deck division often got some of the worst dirt bags and groups of thieves. Yes theives are an unfortunate reality. We had one kid came into our division and fell in with his homies and the group were stealing and pawning stuff in town untill they got caught. The CO did not want some big racial issue so they all got a slap on the wrist. They were lucky they didn't get float tested. There were so many they could have been their own division on a small ship like an FFG. At least he had enough sense not to steal from his own division. This issue hung around this kid like a rotten fish. Once a thief, always a thief.

What about relationships ? Do u think they can work ?

kinda reminds me of jail but with less extortion and degradation. (still entirely different things)

[@bradhoke5833]

Its actually pretty accurate statement. Was in for 8 years i also used to compare it to prison. Less violemce but lots of mental stress. Being on top of each other for 8 months a year is not an easy thing to navigate through.

Like being in jail with the chance of drowning. No thanks.

I want to be a navy seal. I hope I go through hell so I can grow from it

[@ravenopenheart2649]

Don’t worry..if you want to go through hell…you will seriously enjoy the Navy. Raven United States Navy Retired Disabled American Veteran.

So sub carrier and small ship life all very different as opposed to off ship life. The food it was often mystery meal or chicken. I chose chicken a lot. Your duty station also depends on how life is all the bases are different. Would i do it again yes. But not with the sjw way the navy is going now.

[@markmcdonald8341]

Sorry, I don't now anything about the Navy, that's why I am watching this channel. What the hell is "A" school and "C" school?

[@TravelingwithJose]

It’s training you get when you join the Navy.

[@soniaf7794]

@@TravelingwithJose What training? Is "A" school the Aerospace training? What is the "C' training? Oh, I got it. It is for cryptology training. You are not doing a good job explaining to newbies about the Navy. Your audience seems to be old pals of yours, not the ones that are going to join the Navy and really need your advice.

Down in the room???? Forgot how to say berthing????? This sounds like a whinnying session. Suck it up buttercup! It’s never the job its always the people. In 20+ years of Navy serves I never had a job that I thought I couldn’t accomplish. There were just people who made it more difficult. Easiest job I ever had. Show up on time (early) and do what you’re told. Gets some rank and tell others what to do. Become a CHIEF PETTY OFFICE and make your own rules! Navy Chief out!

No way jose

Leaving in two months as a Yeoman

[@TravelingwithJose]

Hey Congrats!! Wish you the best on your journey.

[@DubWeathers]

Traveling with Jose thanks man! Love your channel and what do you know about Yeomans?

[@TravelingwithJose]

A Deezy thanks for watching! Every department has a Yeoman so I’ve worked with a couple. I’m my department they made sure peoples leave was squared away, they wrote up letters of recommendation, they set up meeting within the chain of command, they kind of worked as mentors in the department. I was sometimes jealous because they are always in an air conditioned room and don’t get dirty.

[@DubWeathers]

Traveling with Jose sounds good I wanted an electrician type job but I’m colored blind so they all were eliminated for me haha

[@TravelingwithJose]

A Deezy At least you got something. Enjoy every minute of it even the bad. Take advantage of all the opportunities during and after if you end up getting out.
