I was in the Marines, but we were privileged to work with Army Special Forces in the Uharrie National Forest in North Carolina back in the 70's. Very professional outfit. We actually wore civilian clothes role playing indigenous forces that the Green Berets organized for guerilla warfare. I really enjoyed the time we spent with them. Most of them had been in Vietnam and had some pretty cool stories to tell.
My grandson is infantry, Gunnar. Stationed at Fort Carson Colorado. Extremely proud of him and all of our military men and women retired and active duty.
Wow! Shooting can look so cool!! My five year old son saw the video with me and now we both want to be soldiers! And give the country back what it gaves us!
Realist comment on here. I enjoyed my combat job and deploying was badass, but it provided ZERO real life value after your contract ends 😂 you're literally in the same exact boat as when you joined, except now you have GI Bill and PTSD 🤣
@@JuanAppleseed-ge6tb I didn't join to do some POG shit and sit in an office. It provided me with many skills, like not being soft af, being able to enjoy life, shooting and killing RAH! Got me lifelong friends and made me an all around better person. I was going to school anyways so it was cool to be able to say that I slayed bodies. I didn't join the military to get a job after lol
@@JuanAppleseed-ge6tbyou could say the same thing about going to college. It doesn’t necessarily advance you in your career unless you know exactly what you wanna do and pick a specialized major. Finding a career is more about what you bring to the table beyond what your resume says, who knows you, and being in the right place at the right time.
@@JuanAppleseed-ge6tb Thats completely false, The Infantry teaches you leadership under extreme stress which is more valuable to me within Business than my Business degree is.
i plan on joining im in the process of program sophia and i have my asvab test on the 20th. im 20 been wanting to do this for so long and i finally got the courage to get out my comfort zone. comfort kills dreams!
My life in the military consisted of arriving at the office at 6am, unlocking, turning on the lights and getting the 2 gallon coffee pot going. My day consisted of typing various memos, promotion papers, duty rosters and other mechanics that keep a company running smoothly. My schedule would be interspersed with trips to Division headquarters to pick up top secret messages, trips to the base post office to pick up the company mail and then sorting said mail. Throw in Thursday afternoon weapons cleaning at the armory, because we had to stand inspection every Friday morning after running our weekly 3 mile run. Once a month I had 24 hour guard duty, usually at the armory and one week of mess duty every 6 months. Periodic gas mask exercises in the CS gas chamber was always fun, as was the yearly Intra Mural Rifle and Pistol Matches, which I was always "volunteered" for. Three or four times a year I'd check out my folding portable office from it's storage at the supply shack and restock the forms, carbon copy sheets, pencils and pens and various other office implements I'd need for a week in the bush during maneuvers. The night before deployment was spent stuffing my rucksack with uniforms, toiletries, mess kit, first aid kit and just about everything you thought you'd need, but trying to keep it light. I still had to roll up my blanket and shelter half poles in my shelter half and strap it to the top of the ruck. Most of the time I felt like I was driving to a normal 10 hour day job, working in an office, with small excursions or errands to break up the monotony. Weekends were usually spent with the wife at our trailer off base, maybe grilling with some buds and sucking down some cold ones or driving to her mother's house for the weekend. Mostly it was just a regular job. USMC 1972 to 1976!
I love My Beautiful US Army Members so much and more than myself, Go My Beautiful US Army Members!!! I'm so proud of You all and You all are My American Heroes!!!

The best part of being in the Infantry is... oh, wait, never mind, I'm retired. That's truly the best part. My CIB and EIB grow tarnished without wear. The campaign hat and service cap that saw much sweat molding Infantrymen on Sand Hill and laying Soldiers to rest in Arlington National Cemetery lie unworn for years now. My own 101st combat patches and CSIBs sit--somewhere--and see zero daylight now. I'm written off the books as a once-was (well, kinda), who proudly served as a Rakkasan and in The Old Guard.

I wore everything from a tricorn and wig in A/1-3 to an IHPS out testing the IVAS at Fort Bragg. It was fun while it lasted, but I'm glad those days are behind me.
They didn't show you the CONSTANT 3 week Field Training Exercises - Usually in the rain- where you just patrol, stay wet, get maybe 3 hrs sleep every 24 hrs and you eat MRES.

You ain't getting ressuply until you get to your OBJ (objective) two days from now and then, here's an MRE troop. Got to love the suck.

@@badgerattoadhall I can't believe something I read of reddit with one person claiming that most veterans don't have any disability pay. You'd think that everybody knows specially in the army and marines would be getting some small amount of at least a ten percent disability check a month when they get out
@@golfery5119 I knew a former Navy man that had every sort of military disability there was. Including ringing ears (don't know how to spell the real word) "Hey it's 10% right there and they can't prove they are not ringing"
Love having that 101 combat patch. We’ve had 2 younger brothers of guys in my platoon join up for the 101. 2 generations in one platoon so far. That patch has a draw to it. The 101st arguably has the most esprit de corps and pride than any other unit in the main Army that also rivals the Marine Corps. 1-61 Cavalry 2008-2011, get some boys were rooting for ya young troopers

@@kingslate1 Must suck knowing the rest of the country is moving on without your ideas. The diversity of our military isn't a weakness in the slightest, and thinking so is purely out of blatant ignorance.
United States of America, thank you, these are the best times, I'm with you for a healthy and strong human race, our survival is not a game, my spirit protects life.
Here’s a real day in the life 05: wake up (you’re still drunk from the night before) 06: show up to the COF for pt a 3-5 mile run 0650: vomit the remaining alcohol 0745: think about how you should have joined the airforce on your wait to breakfast 0930: you get smoked by your TL for falling out of the run After getting the living shit smoked out of you, you find out you’re on a connex detail, you proceed to spend the next 4 hours unpacking a connex looking for a tough box the PL needs a tarp inside of and then proceed to repack the connex knowing damn well you’re going to need something else out of there in a week 1130: lunch 1300: you show back up to work and get screamed at by your PSG for your hair (it’s in regs but he’s on his 3rd divorce and doesn’t have a relationship with his children, you are his relief) 1330: sit in the cof until 1700 thinking to yourself “why the fuck am I still here”
Why so many people who want to join the military, want to join the army (in today's time when you know the air force and coast guard are much less shitty in comparison) and want to do peacetime garrison infantry is so far beyond comprehension What are these people expecting?
When did they get all of that amazing equipment? I was in 10th Mountain at Ft Polk and we didn’t get any good equipment or cool vehicles like that. I was also in a scout platoon and that sniper shouldn’t be doing cqb banging doors open lol. Overall, it was a decent experience that helped me to grow as an individual and as a man.
2005-2014 , both active and guard, 2-27IN / 2-135IN. Had a great leadership group in both when I was there. Unfortunately a couple injuries put me on the shelf for a little while.
You forgot to show how to mop and wax the barracks floor, endless weapons cleaning…eighteen SHARP briefings a year…endless ruck marches followed by digging fighting positions then filling them back in. This vid DOES NOT show real life of 11B…it’s actually WAY more fun…most days😂 Follow Me!
@Grizzliegaming1 They can give you airborne in your contract regardless of the mos, otherwise what you will be doing is preparing the parachutes for the rest of your contract
@@Grizzliegaming1 Bud, I just want you to know that your best chance of being an actual paratrooper, is signing an infantry contract with Option 4. Option 4 gives you a spot in Airborne school, and you are almost guaranteed(especially as an 11) to go into an Airborne unit. You can definitely get Airborne on other MOS', but 11b/11x is the way to go if you're wanting to actually live the life of a paratrooper, plus you'll be way more likely to get picked up for RASP if you want to be an Airborne Ranger.
hes just like me exactly like me, my brother was in the army and im attempted for a 2nd time to join the army. Im thinking about MP or what my brother did a Cav Scout but i guess Cavs are dying out so i might do infantry
Prospective recruits, what you're seeing is exactly 1% of your daily life. 99% will be full of Motorpool Mondays, Layouts and formations for formations. You will never use most of the equipment they advertise here. Have fun though...
The 24 hour CQ duty as well as doing vehicle maintenance can happen in pretty much any MOS in the army especially in a forscom unit, but yeah the mopping rain water and constant janitor work is more of an infantry thing
I want to be infrantry, I scored a 29 on ASVAB this past Friday so I’m qualified for the 09 Mike Program. Only thing is I need a waiver, today I’m showing documentation of my expunged/dismissed case it was a 3rd degree felony Human smuggling. But there was no guns drugs or violence involved. It was and is my only charge ever, what are the chances of it being approved? Really want to join the army and go to the program and score high on ASVaB then pass basic and AIT.
I signed up for Infantry or small weapon repair, i had a guy tell me why do infantry there are so many other safe things to do i smiled and told him (well someone has to do it)😅. The army is not going to select us all to stay at base. 3:02 👈 Click.
They should do a commercial where three females get special training at Fort Benning before going to Ranger School. There's a one star general who checks in on them. The Cadre don't let them quit and they get special treatment. One has a book deal set before they even graduate. Oh wait, that already happened.

His injuries would have been service connected has he gone to sick call when he was in and got them documented
@@golfery5119but but but if you are going to suck call you are letting down your unit.
Suck it up and drive on.
God I hate myself for believing this tripe.
@@badgerattoadhall I can't believe something I read of reddit with one person claiming that most veterans don't have any disability pay.
You'd think that everybody knows specially in the army and marines would be getting some small amount of at least a ten percent disability check a month when they get out
@@golfery5119 I knew a former Navy man that had every sort of military disability there was.
Including ringing ears (don't know how to spell the real word)
"Hey it's 10% right there and they can't prove they are not ringing"
@@badgerattoadhall thanks for sharing. I have my tinnitus documented now by the way so I hope that at least counts.
of course they pick the most high speed SGT in the whole battalion. show us the crusty 8 year SPC who doesn't care anymore
Love having that 101 combat patch. We’ve had 2 younger brothers of guys in my platoon join up for the 101. 2 generations in one platoon so far. That patch has a draw to it. The 101st arguably has the most esprit de corps and pride than any other unit in the main Army that also rivals the Marine Corps. 1-61 Cavalry 2008-2011, get some boys were rooting for ya young troopers
This is beautiful
Sweep, Mop, and Buff that Floor! Secure that buffer for the assault! From 11B to 11J
Getting ppl ready for the draft
Have you seen any of the episodes from "Tales from the Service"? They have awesome content as well.

MOS 11B Combat Janitor.
Good fucking shit Army. About damn time you put out good ads. Hooah!!
THey need people to fight for I_srae_l so they are cutting off the trans LGBTQ army ads for now.
Our Diversity is our strength!
This comment cannot be upvoted enough
That’s not our greatest strength
It seems like it’s more of our Achilles heel
@@kingslate1 yep, living the Army values is what makes the Army strong
@@kingslate1 Must suck knowing the rest of the country is moving on without your ideas.
The diversity of our military isn't a weakness in the slightest, and thinking so is purely out of blatant ignorance.
Great effort ! Keep it up 👍
United States of America, thank you, these are the best times, I'm with you for a healthy and strong human race, our survival is not a game, my spirit protects life.
I want to join the United States Marine corps but I sure am glad I got you guys to help us out
You will be fighting for I_srae_l
@@spartanspearFORWARD I'm okay with that.
@@Steven_Groener Ok Mr. Genocide of innocent kids.
Here’s a real day in the life
05: wake up (you’re still drunk from the night before)
06: show up to the COF for pt a 3-5 mile run
0650: vomit the remaining alcohol
0745: think about how you should have joined the airforce on your wait to breakfast
0930: you get smoked by your TL for falling out of the run
After getting the living shit smoked out of you, you find out you’re on a connex detail, you proceed to spend the next 4 hours unpacking a connex looking for a tough box the PL needs a tarp inside of and then proceed to repack the connex knowing damn well you’re going to need something else out of there in a week
1130: lunch
1300: you show back up to work and get screamed at by your PSG for your hair (it’s in regs but he’s on his 3rd divorce and doesn’t have a relationship with his children, you are his relief)
1330: sit in the cof until 1700 thinking to yourself “why the fuck am I still here”
Why so many people who want to join the military, want to join the army (in today's time when you know the air force and coast guard are much less shitty in comparison) and want to do peacetime garrison infantry is so far beyond comprehension
What are these people expecting?
Let’s keep it 100 I was infantry for a long time you forgot to about the log days at the Motorpool smoking PVT’s because of boredom
I remember 90% of the time in the infantry you're doing yard work. Mowing lawns and sh**. And 10% of time training.
yep... still holds true today
The deadliest janitors in the world.
Hell yeah look at these young Hooahs getting back to what being a Soldier is all about
The Best MOS 💙
Rolf
😎💪🏻🇺🇸❤️
Aviation is the best
When did they get all of that amazing equipment?
I was in 10th Mountain at Ft Polk and we didn’t get any good equipment or cool vehicles like that.
I was also in a scout platoon and that sniper shouldn’t be doing cqb banging doors open lol.
Overall, it was a decent experience that helped me to grow as an individual and as a man.
God Loves the Infantry!
A former army infantryman, the best job ever, hooah 🇺🇲
LOL
Hoooah!!!💯
2005-2014 , both active and guard, 2-27IN / 2-135IN. Had a great leadership group in both when I was there. Unfortunately a couple injuries put me on the shelf for a little while.
Wolfhounds!!
Yay Army!!!
Where's the part about cutting grass, tanning rocks or sweeping the rain water?
You sound like you got chaptered out as a PV2 for a DUI and were one of those guys who married a stripper and bought a Camaro at 40% interest.
Good morning. Men.. total war pre-work out.. I'm training hard..! You have my support..!
Happy birthday!!!🎉🇺🇸
Airborne infantry! A/2/504th PIR. Strike hold!
Go Blackheart from a former Blackheart 97-99
They should do a commercial where it's just the Pat Tillman documentary.
They need to take some recruitment notes out of Regiment's playbook..
You forgot to show how to mop and wax the barracks floor, endless weapons cleaning…eighteen SHARP briefings a year…endless ruck marches followed by digging fighting positions then filling them back in. This vid DOES NOT show real life of 11B…it’s actually WAY more fun…most days😂 Follow Me!
And remember recruits your back pain will not be service connected related...
When will the 10th Mountain and 4th ID swap places? When will 25th ID become part of the XVIIIth Abn Corps? When will the Army bring back LRS units?
God Bless Flores 🇺🇸
Im going to take my ACFT soon and ship out after that, im also doing infantry. Wish me luck😂❤
i'm planning to sign as a parachute rigger when i'm 18
Go 11b
@@IGMELVARGAS i would but i want an 100% chance to be airborne
@Grizzliegaming1 They can give you airborne in your contract regardless of the mos, otherwise what you will be doing is preparing the parachutes for the rest of your contract
@@Grizzliegaming1 Bud, I just want you to know that your best chance of being an actual paratrooper, is signing an infantry contract with Option 4.
Option 4 gives you a spot in Airborne school, and you are almost guaranteed(especially as an 11) to go into an Airborne unit.
You can definitely get Airborne on other MOS', but 11b/11x is the way to go if you're wanting to actually live the life of a paratrooper, plus you'll be way more likely to get picked up for RASP if you want to be an Airborne Ranger.
@@_DMNO_ oh alright, thank you. not planning on ranger but i'll look into option 4. i think infantry will be a lot more interesting, thank you!
hes just like me exactly like me, my brother was in the army and im attempted for a 2nd time to join the army. Im thinking about MP or what my brother did a Cav Scout but i guess Cavs are dying out so i might do infantry
Love from Cuba, I hope to join soon. Depends on USCIS
Prospective recruits, what you're seeing is exactly 1% of your daily life. 99% will be full of Motorpool Mondays, Layouts and formations for formations. You will never use most of the equipment they advertise here. Have fun though...
They forgot to mention 24 hr CQ duty and Fire watch 😂. Mopping in the rain and checking for soft spots on armored vehicles…
The 24 hour CQ duty as well as doing vehicle maintenance can happen in pretty much any MOS in the army especially in a forscom unit, but yeah the mopping rain water and constant janitor work is more of an infantry thing
@@golfery5119yup because I had 24 hour staff duty not too long ago
I want to be infrantry, I scored a 29 on ASVAB this past Friday so I’m qualified for the 09 Mike Program. Only thing is I need a waiver, today I’m showing documentation of my expunged/dismissed case it was a 3rd degree felony Human smuggling. But there was no guns drugs or violence involved. It was and is my only charge ever, what are the chances of it being approved? Really want to join the army and go to the program and score high on ASVaB then pass basic and AIT.
You should be good , tell your recruiter you want to be in the infantry etc , why you want to join infantry ?
real day in the life -
psg - "give me 3"
me - i wonder what its for
psg - "give me 2"
Welcome to the industrial army. Storm trooper level quality and boredom. I honestly miss it
Salute to all my university of fort benning alumni
I signed up for Infantry or small weapon repair, i had a guy tell me why do infantry there are so many other safe things to do i smiled and told him (well someone has to do it)😅. The army is not going to select us all to stay at base. 3:02 👈 Click.
"I wanted to have a job where I could consume massive amounts of nicotine and caffeine without ridicule." There I wrote the script for you.
11B2P 82d 7 years total... Well done, but they did leave out a few details.... Quite a few 'details'.
11B4P 2/505th Eighty Deuce for one hitch sounding off...
Yep, they left out a load of details both good, bad and indifferent.
Love them shades at the 3 minute mark...
They should do a commercial where three females get special training at Fort Benning before going to Ranger School. There's a one star general who checks in on them. The Cadre don't let them quit and they get special treatment. One has a book deal set before they even graduate. Oh wait, that already happened.
