US Navy Hospital Corpsman A-School Advice + Cadence & Marching - HM Class 135 - 4K

[@jackcollinsmartin4210]

This is an incredible video and very informative. I'll be enlisting the second I graduate from college this December and I'm hoping to get in as an HMBHT. Been speaking with both an Enlisted and Officer Recruiters and it seems like I'm on a good path with them so far. Hearing each graduate's experiences is a massive help to any nerves I have, and it just reinforces that this is what I truly want to do in life. I can't wait. Thanks for the video!

As a fleet returnee going back to an A school, I'd let the baby sailors take any n all the leadership roles.

Yo I just put in for Hm! I have question! Once you get to the A school can you screen for SARC /HM ATF

[@tonymower2439]

@@runnin_myles8098 you can try for SARC after you are done with your A-School and their will be other HM instructors who can point you to the right direction on doing so.

Why do some sailors have 3 stripes while others have no stripes

[@georgemartyn5268]

Racism

[@neonassassin4805]

I’m sure it’s associated with rank! E2 have two stripes and e3 have three stripes. These are referring to rank. Some enter the navy with different ranks depending on what skills, education they have coming in.

[@GrowthDrivesUs]

It’s a because of education

[@TheOtherSideoftheHill]

ROTC and/or college. You can earn rank while training.

Is A school 14 or 19 weeks? Online it says 14 weeks, but at meps they told me 19.

[@ftapon]

It's 19 weeks. About 5 months. On the other hand, online it often says 14 weeks.

[@RottenSoulxs]

@@ftaponit’s 12 weeks

[@ftapon]

@@RottenSoulxs Where's proof of that?

[@25mfd]

after A school, where do HMs usually get stationed?

[@ftapon]

There's a good chance fresh HM grads will go to a big Navy hospital on shore for two year and then do sea duty for 2 more years after that. However, there are PLENTY of exceptions. Some go overseas (e.g., Cuba, Japan, Europe), some go to the Marines, and some go directly on a ship. As usual, it depends on the needs of the Navy! ;)
