I was very pleasantly surprised! Any materials you suggest I use or you prefer?

I agree-my next case will be with the subscription 🫡 Thanks for watching and best of skill and luck on your pre-med journey 🏥

#sustain 😂 Thank you!

@@ChrisChew Yes, S&O placement can easily be misunderstood and fratricide is often the result A good lesson though before CST to boost the improvement 👍 Best of skill and luck and Ad Meliora-Toward Better Things 🫡

@@lexievanderloo888 Bravo buddies 💪 Thank you! I am in the TBB 2026 accessions group as a pre-medical student. Good luck to you as well -Ad Meliora! 👍

@@crystalkohn2489 Financially a wise decision most of the time. Do you think you made the right decision over choosing another institution?

@@learningwithlanden I think in hindsight it was after I lost my 10k army scholarship due to my high school grade point average.

@@crystalkohn2489 Wow! That sounds like a poor scholarship structure if it penalized you for good grades 🤦‍♂️

A necessary evil 🤷‍♂️

@@JessicaFranco1 Overjoyed to hear that! Wishing you the best on your academic pursuits 👍

Thanks!

​@@learningwithlanden Yeaahh

Glad you liked it! Ad Meliora-Toward Better Things!

Get part 2 done ASAP man >:) haha, good stuff.

J/K, this is good shit young warfighter. Just remember to take care of your soldiers. Your rank doesn't exist imbue you with privilege; it exists so that you have the authority to ensure their welfare, second only to mission accomplishment.

@@rsmac11 Although one may argue it falls under Selfless Service, Humility should be one of the LDRSHIP values because of the consistent theme of Enlisted warning me against becoming arrogant or “deaf” Officers who ignore or otherwise undermine the tried and tested experiential wisdom and common sense of NCOs. I take this concern to heart and hope I can help break the counterproductive leadership chain. May my rank never attack me with an unhealthy power exhibition. Thanks for commenting and Ad Meliora!

@@learningwithlanden Absolutely. I'm just a dumb retired Marine Corps Officer, so all the Latin I have for you in return is a Ductus Exemplo.

Also, low key, I'm drunk on Orion so...take my advice with a grain of salt.

@@rsmac11 Haha, I wouldn’t underestimate yourself. Good Latin phrase 💯 Thank you

@@Shark59809 Despite Air Force JROTC, you are free to choose the military ROTC branch of your choice (Navy, Army, or Air Force). The only limiting factor is that not all universities provide every type of ROTC program. Carroll College, where I attend, only offers Army. Hope that helps and Ad Meliora!

Would I have to enlist in the Army if I were to do Army ROTC?

@@Shark59809 Not enlist (as in go to basic training and become a Soldier). ROTC is for forging Officers, so you would commission as a 2nd Lieutenant after graduating from college. ROTC is a way to pay for school in exchange for service time and/or serve as an Officer and not go the Enlisted route

Yay!

I'm sorry to hear that. Moving forward, be confident in your pace count (easier said than done in my experience) and utilize clover-leafing to locate your point. Depending on terrain, you should practice your 100m pace to see how your steps vary. Do you hold your compass close to your chest when walking, up to your dominant eye, or other technique?

Keep fighting the good fight, trooper! I can't say it will get easier or that quitting is the right answer, but you will get better at handling hard. Ad Meliora1

Yes, new challenge unlocked, haha! Thank you

@@learningwithlanden I taught Land Nav / Orienteering for both Scouts and My ROTC unit. Never failed to trick at least one person each year who was "just refreshing there knowledge"

@@richardstephens3327 ​​⁠Yes! Land nav can humble the best of us when we least expect it

@@Brysonxr201 cadot says “so true” 😂

@@ThisHandleIsTakenTryThis Thanks!

@@JOWNZ88Technically all songs listened to on your smart device are computer generated because the audio is recorded digitally 😉 However, if you mean the vocals are generated using ai, you are correct - I wrote the lyrics, composed and mixed the instrumentals in BandLab, and used Udio.ai for the vocals 👍 #memesong

@@conservacastwithben Hope you found this video at least a bit helpful. As an MS1, you will be getting a crash course in land nav, stx lanes, and whatever else your program plans, so be willing to learn, push yourself mentally and physically for you MS3s, and try to enjoy it, even when it’s tough. Hooah! Ad Meliora! 🫡 Hope you let me know how it goes! Exciting to see you in ROTC now and no longer a high schooler

@@learningwithlandenwhats stx?

@@learningwithlandenalso ive been hearing things about how we have to do fire watch 😢 btw mine is at fort sill in oklamhoma

@@conservacastwithben Simulated Training Exercise (mission lanes, including attack, ambush, movement to contact, raid, and defense)

@@conservacastwithben Yes, fire guard sucks but is vital to survival of the squad/platoon. Fatigue will be your number #1 enemy. Ft. Sill is flat and windy I’ve heard. Hope it’s a good training experience. Start wearing your boots NOW if you’ve never worn Army boots before (prevent blisters)

Thank you! Some of your short film-style, military content is 🔥 Ad Meliora!

@@learningwithlanden Thanks man! We've got a ton of new stuff coming out soon :)

@@gkuproductions Exciting 👀

Haha! too true

FTXs are the closest you will get to CST-like training, so most programs require you to attend, especially if on scholarship. Here’s my video (part 1) of my full FTX breakdown: The TRUTH about Army ROTC FTX | From an MSIII ruclips.net/video/WrxGqm9frwI/видео.html

What is real?

Thank you! It was such a joy to make. My biochem professor is the best!

@@conservacastwithben Read AR 670-1 to show up in the right place, right time, right uniform. Doing that sets a foundation that everything else in your ROTC and later military career will build on top of. “Legs feed the wolf” -Coach Brooks Ad Meliora!

make a fair attempt to maintain a good attitude, and make it a habit. those annoyingly early college mornings (often, to my knowledge, earlier even than in the 'Big Army' due to class times) get very old very quickly. throughout your time in ROTC you'll have some shitty cadre, some shitty cadets, and certainly some shitty PT, which have the very real potential of dragging you down and making every morning that much more miserable. so focus on the positive things and you'll start to see them more. while complaining definitely can be constructive (as in calling out unreasonable/illogical decisions) it can very easily become habitual in which case it will drag down other people with you. so intentionally try to focus positively when those dark mornings try to darken your mood.

@@halfstaffmusic That’s better advice than I had. There are mornings you will dread getting out of bed, but that positivity, some good accountability buddies, and “remembering the why” mentality goes far when motivation is tapped out and you’re running on fumes. Thank you @halfstaffmusic
