US Army Cavalry Scout 19D Episode 19: Graduation

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.
The time has come. After an incredibly hard working 22 weeks of training, the Army's newest Cavalry Scouts graduate from 19D One Station Unit Training and reunite with family and friends before moving on to their follow on assignment.

Seeing this brings back a lot of memories when I joined the U.S. army cavalry scout back in 1989@ Fort Knox Kentucky Charlie 6/16th…. Proud to this new scout!!!!! Scouts out!!!!

[@Mooretandk]

I'm going in for cav scout, and to have watched each episode of this each week, following up to this graduation, I am proud and excited to be doing this. Watching these guys through there training, as I am still having to wait before able to head out, has really solidified my decision and has been keeping me motivated. Thank you

[@oiuytv]

It's good to see at least some of the old Army is still intact.

[@GingyyFPS]

very much intact. my drills at 2-15, all of the drills, cadre, and the COs were ALL hard af old army soldiers and officers. there were times where they wanted to put hands on some of the trainees so freaking bad, they took them to the pit and broke them..... LITerally. 4 guys ,from the time i was there, were fucking around in the bay, and broke something very important to our drills. and lets just say i have NEVER seen 6 dudes so made over an object that they bring every trainee out to watch them. 2 of them literally could not walk and had to be taken to MTAC that day, and the other 2 went the next morning.

With a ship of Oct 12, watching this entire series has been greatly educational and significantly soothed many of the anxieties I have about shipping. Bravo for this series. Albeit, nothing prepares me for the PB shot. Man... I hate needles.

[@aletron4750]

On my phone right now, just finished up basic training in 2-15. I am telling you now, the first 5 weeks will be hell. Absolute sheer hell, not physically, but mentally. Red phase will be physically bad, 30 second showers, 30 seconds to change to PTs from OCPs and vice versa, white phase is the wait phase, you wait for 6 hours and shoot your rifle for 5 minutes. That is all white phase is, blue phase is fun, combatives, high risk, and the forge FTX which is the best one. I wish you luck my man🤙

[@michael12700]

@@aletron4750 I appreciate the insight and can't wait to experience the pure fun that awaits. I've heard the first week is the worst to get through, but after that it will start getting easier mentally and physically as you get used to it.

Has it changed? Aren’t the DS supposed to do push-ups with them. And it’s the first time I’ve heard dismissed Instead of fall out for formations

[@TeensierPython]

No. They don’t have to do push-ups with them. Dismiss is correct. You can also say fall-out. Used for different purposes. Dismiss means you’re done. See you next time. Fall-out means leave the formation but you aren’t leaving to go anywhere.

Anybody else shipping out September 13th for 19D?

[@imthatguy5629]

Im here rn but your gonna hate the hell outta it, your gonna see so many quit and so many get injured as well yourself if your legs are to weak, red phase will break u down, white phase boring af, blue phase will get better, black phase gets better and a bit more fun, it all depends who you are and how u take everything, you will hate some but as long as the platoon stays strong everything will be fine, but making it through the training till gold phase will be worth it 100% 👌 Goodluck to you

[@thealflowers73]

@@imthatguy5629 appreciate the honesty bro. I'm already expecting the worst of it I also think coming from a football background of tough coaching I'll be okay. Ik it's all a mental game more than physical one. What I'm really hoping for is some good camaraderie and everyone sticks together. I didn't know much about what to expect from the phases so thanks for your insight and the heads up. Also good luck to you and I hope you finish up healthy!
