      @@LyransDenofLight hello there, I got recycled because I had to have surgery that I didn’t know I had going on prior to joining. I had to rehabilitate for about almost 2 months then get back into cycle from where I left off.
      It was hard for me to remember some information because of sleep deprivation but they will make sure that you will remember key things that you will need. As long as you’re putting in the effort and showing that you want to be in the Army, then you will be good to go.
      I just completed my AIT, and should be heading to my duty station soon.

    Is be interested in the car thing.
    Thanks for these videos. I'm watching them all.
    I have my dream car and it's still got like 9k on it to go... id rather not let it go, but I'm financially fucked under this administration.... and I'm enlisting because of them.

    This is great advice. Keep up the fantastic work. Exercise is pretty much a life style in many parts of the armed forces, not simply a hobby. When you're bored or waiting, just exercise.

    I'm talking to a recruiter in a week and the only thing I'm worried about is my math skills. I need to get back into it and sharpen them. Math was always my worst subject. Everything else I'm golden on. Oh, I also turned 33 last month. And that doesn't bother me at all.

    • @victorgibson8587
      @victorgibson8587  Год назад +1

      You got it! Don’t stress to much about the math. It’s nothing crazy like fractions and stuff. It’s more about the overall score from maybe 5 different categories. Don’t quote me on the exact amount, but if you’ve already made it this far in life, you’ll be okay. Best of luck!

    Do they repect people being christian? and for the people that cant eat certain foods would they still have to eat it?

    • @victorgibson8587
      @victorgibson8587  Год назад

      Respect, Absolutely there’s services for so many beliefs and religions! And no they won’t force you to eat anything against your will or unless it’s for your own safety. They try their best to be accommodating from what I’ve been through. As far as food goes, the offerings are very basic, very “lightly” seasoned, and there’s usual a couple good finds. Until you get to the MRE’s… (ready to eat meals)

    Enjoy this real-ass videos that have nothing to do with pew pew & are actually relevant to life as a man, father in his 30s who’s decided to drop his pride, got to the back of the line and has devoted himself and time to serve and protect his nation.
    How come you’re wearing this type of uniform though, thought the US Army are using multicam or something of that sort right now

    • @victorgibson8587
      @victorgibson8587  2 года назад +2

      Man I appreciate this comment a lot! Thank you 🙏🏼 I’m far from a pro at this RUclips stuff, I just try to make content that I wish I could find when I was thinking about joining.
      And the uniform is because my unit is stationed out in the desert and we go to the field every month, so we wear desert camo during the field exercises and the normal uniform when not training. I hope that made sense lol. Thank you again for the respect and kudos!

    What can I do with my car before getting sent off.

    • @victorgibson8587
      @victorgibson8587  Год назад +2

      If you’re still making payments on it, you can use the SCRA benefits along with a copy of your orders and they can come pick up the car. No penalty to you. The only drawback is that it will clear off of your credit report and none of the payments you made will exist.
