My grandpa was a Seabee in the Pacific during WW2 during the push to Tokyo. His stories were bloodcurdling. I’m getting goosebumps just thinking about it. His job was to build while the Marines protected them. They built airfields and bridges all while under enemy fire. Were they shooting back? No. They were pouring concrete and laying timber. God bless the US Seabees.

Yep when I was deployed on my first tour as a marine officer. We were sent to the early years at Afghanistan. We pretty much dropped in a classified location and had to hold down the area for a few days. We had gun fire and rpgs hitting us randomly during the day and night without any defenses. The seabees came in on our 6th day being there and they built us a whole assed fort in less than a week. I lost 3 guys that first week. None of them got killed but they did have critical wounds. The seabees really saved our ass

I'll give the short version and just say that the Seebees are absolutely badass. Badasses that kick ass. A genuine and heartfelt thank you to all Seebees that might read this. Hell for that matter I'd like to thank anyone that served at all. We appreciate you all...now if we could just get the VA to do the same and provide you guys with everything you need and we're promised. Lol. (Sorry VA, just poking fun. I know you guys are busy.

He used that trade when he got out. Then he did 35 years with the phone company. The SeaBees are a vital asset to the U.S. military force. Many people do not know about them or what they do.

My Dad was an original Seabee. Went ashore with the Marines on Guam. Started unloading bullets and beans. Spent time firing an M-1 alongside the Marines. Then built wood floor tents, hot showers, hot kitchens to feed the Marines. Then pushed roads into the interior of the island escorted by Marines. Dad was there building from invasion until hostilities end. A 6 lane concrete highway went from beachhead to storage facilities with a 24 hour pour for Port facilities to keep the Seabees busy. Add in bunkers, command centers, vaults, code rooms, flak towers and you have a Seabee legacy. Add in the 10,000 foot runway and Guam became an unsinkable aircraft carrier. A carrier launching B-29 bombers to hit the Japanese home Islands. Not far away was Tinian.... the launch point for the atomic bomb missions. Yeah Dad was a proud sailor! We were prouder yet when 4 Seabees arrived at his funeral service. They belted out the Seabee Song loud and proud to honor my Dad. Of course catching the four of them saluting my dad's casket as they departed touched my heart.

They've also initiated programs dedicated to education, women's right, trade skills, humanitarian assistance, provided clean water and other social welfare programs. They've done a lot more of such missions. It's just that u don't see these type of work getting praised by reporters on major national and international news outlets.

@@michaelshawusa1iraq is a (somewhat) democracy,saddam hussein is dead, also mmAmerica has a better position in the region. Afghanistan sadly is and has always been a shit show. But at least for 20years they got some sense of stability and sense of freedom (for afghanistan), women were treated well, were able to get an education, and participate in society. Sadly, CORRUPTION and extremism still existed. Many thought the US would just stay forever for protection and funds but wanted to appear like they were in charge. At the end of the day it is up to the local populace to create a well managed state, unless they become part of an empire. That said, in both countries, many dangerous and violent threats were removed. Interestingly, while the Taliban leadership is not ideal, prior to US invasion they were not the main enemy. They just took and continue to take money, from most anyone that will supply it, at least for now THEY are having to fight an insurgence with ISIS-K and other smaller groups. Oddly in this way a goal was partially taken care of, in that Afghanistan (at least appears to be) is fighting some of foreign and somewhat home grown militant groups. Not a perfect😮 mission but not a failure.

My Grandpa’s uncle, who I’m named after, was a Navy CB involved with D-day. He operated a Rhino ferry, I don’t know too much about it but I’ve heard one story. Apparently after the beach was taken, he had to pick among the injured young men and decide who would live long enough to make it back to the ships. He also had to decide who was too injured to make it, meaning he had to leave them on the shore to die. There might be something wrong with the story but I don’t bother my grandpa about it too often cause it makes him emotional. Hats off to you all in the Navy CBs and all who served past, present or future.

​@@junjun.47_ Tell your recruiter you wont sign a contract for any rate that isnt Seabee. BU, CE, UT, CM, EA, SW. When you hit MEPS, double down on what you said. If they dont offer any Seabee rates, tell them youre not signing and will have to come back at another date when one opens up. They cannot force you to take another rate unless you went to bootcamp, A-School and then failed out of your training too many times. I highly recommend Construction mechanic, because of the special billet opportunities when you get offered DEVGRU orders, but thats only if you really plan on going all out for the navy. Ive been a UT for a minute and its been great. Never thought I would be a Plumber / Hvac tech in my life. Take everything with a grain of salt. It will not always be great.

My uncle was a seabee in the Gulf War. He has PTSD, I remember him that a truck in front of him stopped, and someone got out and stepped on a mine. Another story told is a missile flew over his head, which had nerve gas in it, and he suffers from the Gulf War syndrome. He said that in the last 6 weeks of the war, they were doing different jobs other than building structures and all. He said they had nothing to do, and he said he had to do training for being Gunner on a tank, and that's what he did at the last 6 weeks of the war. That's all the information he has said about if time in the seabees.
