When I worked in Arlington, VA, I had an employee who had been a Pentagon tour guide. He told us a story about how one day he was heading towards the personnel office on his own business. Suddenly, he looked up and didn't know where he was in the building. Nothing looked familiar. So he turned backwards, walked a few steps and then he knew exactly where he was and was able to continue on to where he was going. He just wasn't used to seeing things facing forward!
Ha what a neat story I guess walking backwards does give a different perspective.. I'm from NZ biggest building I've been on a tour group with was the beehive in Wellington, that building is amazing.. it sits on weight stabilizers as like anti earthquake measures.
Spent years working for the Defense Department and good lord I hated going to the Pentagon, so confusing, carter 1, floor 2, hall c, room 98, maybe, not sure, just leave 2 hours early for a meeting to take into account getting lost.
when i went there for my tour the 2 tour guides i had were so nice and they added humor (in a mature way) to there tour. omg, it literally msde we want to join the military. there is 5 starbucks there and when i heard that i cryed. probally one on each side lol. he said the arrows on the floor lead to the closest starbucks and if you look really closley you can see the starbuck logo. i totally fell for it only to see it leads to the closest exit which makes way more sense. they yell when they talk but there smile makes up for it. i wish i could remember there names but they were shouting them and they were long titles. makes me want to go on another tour. and i feel bad bc i never said thank you for there service :(
@@patriot4786 iam not sure if they even do it anymore I went on it before 9-11 but we just went there paid for it and went on it like a museum tour basically. It was awesome
It surprisingly looks like a mall or a hospital... Not a fancy office building. Extremely underwhelming considering how much power the people working there have.

The Roman soldiers dress code on the battle field is the correct battle field dress code for every soldier I care about. Chess armor, back armor, hard hat that covers the back of the neck & shield that blocks swords & bullets yet light weight & easily manuverable. The Germans during war war II were smart enough to use hard hats first, even though it didn't cover the back of the neck, it gave them an advantage untill the alliance caught on.
I went on this tour. Pretty air force babes were wheeling around tea service carts and serving pastries and coffee to the 4 star generals. It pays to be a general.
With todays technology and capability to work from home many offices in the Pentagon can work remotely. So much of it is basically a huge museum and money pit.
Very little... about $700- $800 a month take home after taxes (unless they live off base/have kids or married, which is unlikely at that rank/special duty)
actually it appears on BO4, but it is the reimagined version of five known as "Classified". instead of the pentagon thief, he is replaced by the hellhounds.
I'm in an internship with Merrick Garland and I'm already federally bonded and everything else and I'm trying to find out the right answers before I go into this on how to ask the political questions that need to be asked like what is digital kidnapping what is VR and AR kidnapping and mi eligible to leave if I don't want to be a part of the kidnapping and what do I need to say if there's code words or what not if you can program me I'm tired of them doing this 1:02
I'M SO GLAD, I GOT THE PENTAGON INVOLVED, SO GRATEFUL FOR THE PENTAGON AND ITS EMPLOYEES WERE THE ONLY ONES VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY HEALTH AND WELL-BEINGS....THE PENTAGON EVEN WARNED ALL THOSE BASTARDOS (LEAVE HER ALONE). MAY. MY DEARLY ENTERNAL HEAVENLY FATHER IN THE CELESTIAL KINGDOM BLESS THOSE EMPLOYEES OF THE PENTAGON ....GOT MY WHOLE STATEMENT OVER THE PHONE EVEN IF I WAS IN CRYING TEARS, COULD BARELY TALK THE PENTAGON HAD MUCH PATIENCES WITH ME, AND A FEW DAYS LATER THE PENTAGON SENT ME A LETTER BEING SO VERY CONCERNED,WORRIED ABOUT MY HEALTH AND WELL-BEINGS....THE PENTAGON WARNED ALL THOSE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES WHO (THE STANDARD FORM 95) KEPT OVER AND OVER AGAIN....MY WHOLE RIGHT SIDE LOCKS, NO FEELING, SHOCK PAINS I CAN'T MOVE!!!! BOTH OF MY LEFT AND RIGHT HANDS AND ARMS...THE PENTAGON KNOWS I HAVE BEEN SO HURT, I DON'T FEEL RIGHT! THE PENTAGON KNOWS I DON'T WANT NO POLICE OFFICER NEAR ME! PLUS THE PENTAGON KNOWS I HAVE A PHOBIA BEING IN SO MUCH FEAR OF MEN...A MORMÓN GIRL
Just read the reviews people leave after visiting this place. It’s ridiculous how people are treated for not doing a thing during the tour. I read one review that someone was forced by army personnel to answer personal questions🤦♀️

This lady was the one who gave my group a tour alongside another one!
Luis Martinez nice! How was she in person!?
she look like a navy personal.
Idc lol
@@Ddann04 i do
Wher's the teleporter for the Pack-a-Punch
Riot where’s jug ?
Where's interrogation room 9?
Where's the war room?
Where’s those creepy things that crawl
Where are the wall buys
Her getting on the escalator backwards gave me anxiety
You are very soft then 😂
If you run a tour video backwards, it will be like a person giving out a sermon while pushing back a dozen people until they’re out of there.
Why?
Spent years working for the Defense Department and good lord I hated going to the Pentagon, so confusing, carter 1, floor 2, hall c, room 98, maybe, not sure, just leave 2 hours early for a meeting to take into account getting lost.
This woman is super human, no other way to describe her, she is one a who other level
30+ pages in 15 days is pretty crazy
It’s a tour guide job. Tf are you talking about
Y’all should make the title “Backwards Walking in the Pentagon”
This reporter is absolutely stunning!!!
"Ma'am, could you please stop yelling?"
*_"NO I CAN'T STOP YELLING, CAUSE THIS IS HOW I TALK! AIN'T YOU SEEN MY MOVIES?"_*
so many security and the woman walking backwards to see everyone. Wow, that's some security right there
I like their uniforms.
Well, even repeating same thing over and over. Being too repetitive feels like shit after a time.

Sml
How can anyone read this?? It’s totally illiterate
@@malvolio01 the lack of ability to understand comments without capitalization is actually considered illiteracy itself nowadays.
They call this the pentagon? They should call it “The 1% of The Pentagon They Let You See”.
Yep
Being a Pentagon tour guide is harder than it looks.
Wait are you one
interesting! love that the interviewer interviewed while walking backwards.
I remember as a kid getting a private tour with my dad through a friend.
I have been on this very tour and it was awesome 😊
Really how do u apply?
@@patriot4786 iam not sure if they even do it anymore I went on it before 9-11 but we just went there paid for it and went on it like a museum tour basically. It was awesome
@@Sajin688 oh u did it before 911? So that was like more than 20 years ago? 😄
Where’s the Pack a Punch
My grandpa used to work at the pentagon 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🏛
So it's basically a museum and a military neeve center put together.
Mater from cars can go straight to Navy Seals, backwards walking level >9000
It was also 9/11 when the construction began and it was 9/11 when it fell😥 thank you to everyone who risked their life saving others.
Where’s the groom lake teleporter?
5 Words.
*FIVE AND CLASSIFIED.*
I regret not going to the white house, I also would like to visit the pentagon and staue of liberty one day.
🗽
I think they should allow them to walk forwards. Man, just turn around to face the crowd when you stop. I would be ok with it personally.
Then you may have someone wandering around the pentagon
Nobody but her can see the front of the guests. The only way to constantly see their faces at all times is to walk while facing them - backwards.
Terrorist in training huh. You’d “personally be fine” if they left you unsupervised in the headquarters of the military.
Nobody could go behind them, no?
Who would want to do this?
Fr lol
her
A person who is ordered to and gets a paycheck.
I would love to visit to Pentagon one day. Love from Malaysia
It's nothing special. They only allow you to see the main hallway and that's it.

I mean they didn’t show the offices
The offices look like offices of course
"In a building dominated by men." Jesus literally who cares.
jesus i think that same airman gave us our tour. I can't be sure but he looks so similar.

I passed my bubble gas this morning
your memory gotta be right up there to remember a whole script with in 15days bro front to back .....
Only 100k people per year?!
In my little italian town each year come 500k tourist from all around the globe...
Yours is a town. The pentagon is a building, one that I imagine is more strict on who it allows in
@@podomuss Still less famous
@@Lama-it6rk I doubt your town is more famous than the Pentagon
@@podomuss My town is less famous, that's what i meant. Yet, there are 5 times more tourists each year...
I went on this tour. Pretty air force babes were wheeling around tea service carts and serving pastries and coffee to the 4 star generals.

"pretty air price babes"? and you wonder why the military has a sexual assault problem
@@zurzakne-etra7069 You’re talking at an old-timer. Very hard to teach old dogs new tricks
They have to walk backwards.. woww
Where is aline.
Am i the only one who think alian is inside a pentagon
Are you looking for aline or alian
Yeah, the Nova Crawlers.
good for her
Tour guide woman looks like a female version of Val Kilmer's "Iceman"😅
Can you put them in step when your walking backwards?
and talking
nobody really got nothing to say far i know
The guests are also members of the Military?🧐
Some were
This looks nothing like five
With todays technology and capability to work from home many offices in the Pentagon can work remotely. So much of it is basically a huge museum and money pit.
I wonder how much they get paid
Menibor1 same
She gets paid what ever her rank is
Minimum wage
Very little... about $700- $800 a month take home after taxes (unless they live off base/have kids or married, which is unlikely at that rank/special duty)
Typical Navy excellence. Its great and impressive and all, but I don't know why everything has to be so severe. Memorize 35 pages? wtf
She from the past -tenet
LMAOOOOOOOOOO seamen.

I can feel the racism on the faces…
Lol the first comment "world's most powerful military" that you aren't.
Please stop all the 9/11 scare stuff people are dying I'm a wounded veteran
I bet the salary is high
The tour guides are paid the same as if they weren’t doing that job
Oh god they even made this about men vs women.
