US Army Cavalry Scout 19D Episode 1 - Thunder Run

As a Cavalry Scout, you will serve or assist as a member of a scout team, squad, or platoon in reconnaissance, security, and other combat operations. As the eyes and ears of the battlefield, they use cover and concealment to conduct reconnaissance to gather vital information for the planning of military missions and the deployment of forces into battle.
In this video Cavalry Scout trainees are introduced to their Drill Sergeants and conduct a series of events known as the Thunder Run.

This reminds me of my first month of training at fort knox, as cav scout 19delta, way back in 9-11 era, except we wore 20-40 pound ruck sacks, water bottles on hip belts, while running at similar cadence to training buildings.

[@stanleyanderson7909]

Scouts in the us army is very important and needed.

[@stanleyanderson7909]

Having the ability to find out what the enemy is doing is very important.

[@TorquePerformanceGa]

[@1922_productions]

[@1922_productions]

Reception isn’t bad

[@GingyyFPS]

@@1922_productions from everything i hear the bad part is the length

[@kaceemoore7843]

Reception is terrible worst part easily

[@qualitydonut4388]

@@GingyyFPS i was in this cycle. graduated Jan 27 2022. out of all the hell i went through in basic i can easily say none of it was nearly as bad as me driving myself insane with my thoughts at reception. you’re gonna have a great time and do a ton of fun stuff and make friends you’ll view as family

[@GingyyFPS]

@@qualitydonut4388 awesome:) 10 more days till i stay at MEPs for 10 hours, and 5 hours on the bus. Can’t wait at all

[@stanleyanderson7909]

I hope the u.s. army doesn’t lose its scouts capability.

[@FurryAzzre]

January 2nd 2025, I’ll be there. Count on it.

[@stanleyanderson7909]

I think the army is wise to have cav scouts.

[@unknownhero1785]

I’m leaving for fort benning next week already in Jackson in reception

[@stanleyanderson7909]

Being a army scout seems a job I would pick in the army.

[@RealTinyToes]

My class I love it

[@Justin-st9kn]

Miss my days as a Drill in D 5-15 at Knox

[@friendlyneighborhoodgalil1859]

Went through A5-15 at Benning in 2021

[@dennisriblett4622]

Was in D .17 .5 in 1975 ...C Troop 5 th Cav for training AIT ....KNOX was OK.

[@gregsmithmd9572]

delta troop 5/15 in 99. i ran into a guy at a rest stop a few months ago wearing a 5/15 hoodie. i was excited and told him i was a scout and asked when he was in. he said he got the hoodie at his daughters graduation. i think he could see the disapointment in my face.

[@Justin-st9kn]

@@gregsmithmd9572 I was a Private in Delta Troop in 99 myself. I was in 1st Plt with DS Swanson and DS Prang. I went through Sep 99- Jan 00

[@gregsmithmd9572]

[@wreck993]

If it ain't 5-15 I don't want to hear your your in basic as a scout! IJS!🤨

[@1922_productions]

Wow it’s called the thunder run now. Not the shark attack smh

[@GeroniBro-bb4ev]

The title of the video is Week 1, not day 1. Still happens, but stay upset I guess.

[@GingyyFPS]

@@GeroniBro-bb4ev i think shark attack was just for basic, not 19D training. Am i wrong?

[@GeroniBro-bb4ev]

@Redd OSUT for 19D is all together and it starts with the Thunder Run. I graduated from the 194th, 5-15 CAV, Bravo Troop in March of last year. If you got any questions I'm down to answer what I can

[@1922_productions]

Glad the shark attack still happens I was B Troop 5-15 in Jan2013

[@GingyyFPS]

@@GeroniBro-bb4ev recommendations? Tips? I need anything and everything

[@kilakr13]

Stay outta the kill zone

[@RhetoricWolf]

Shark Attack > Thunder Run 🤦🏽‍♂️😅
