Funny how I used to be an active duty 12B now I’m watching these videos to get back in shape post military since I’ve got a few new titanium replacement parts lol Essayons brother!
This was an awesome video. Side note: one of my buddies is also one of the people You train. He’s been talking about you for months. I just didn’t know it was “gritty soldier” We had the chance to catch up this morning during my farmers walk. Turns out it’s YOU haha. Small world.
Train up during EBOLC Begins about 10 weeks in. It’s about an 8 week train up and culminates with a weekend event. When you pass it, you will get the opportunity to get a walk on or hard slot. This slot is actually given from your unit, informed via the school house through the branch manager
@@cjb5192 actually I take that back. If you’re going part time, go Guard. Same as reserves but they have more benefits since they report to the state on top of the federal government. More MOS’s and more opportunities
@Gritty Soldier thanks for the video been a engineer for almost a year now & want to up my knowledge for my job. Wondering if you could give me some must knows for a 12b?

I just got back from OSUT as a 12B. If you’re Active duty they gave us the chance to go to Sapper school as long as we passed the requirements to get into Sapper school, but they only took 3 people out of like 7 that tried to go
What company did you serve in? I served in HHC, A Company, C Company. While in Alfa, we earned Honor Company for the an entire year. Lots of hard work for sure. Essayon

Haha you mentioned Carwash hill and reminded me of when I was at Bravo 169 for AIT. It was tradition to run that hill every Friday. Good times!!
Went thru in 97. I was alpha 169. Supper school ate lunch at our dfac. Miss those days.
Excellent! I bet you'd help make the next Survival Games very interesting.
When I was in,12B,ther wasn't a Sapper school I was in Vietnam in 70
Preciate the info , ima instructor out at FLW . Droppin my packet in 2 months
Carwash hill is NO JOKE, its very steep and roughly 2 miles long
I just branched, Engineer and I am hoping for a walking on slot at BOLC thanks for the vid bro!
👍
Areyou active duty? You may have a good chance of getting a hard slot.
Train up during EBOLC Begins about 10 weeks in. It’s about an 8 week train up and culminates with a weekend event. When you pass it, you will get the opportunity to get a walk on or hard slot. This slot is actually given from your unit, informed via the school house through the branch manager
Im gonna be a 12B in the reserves im leaving in a month and I hope as soon as I get to my reserve unit I can get the ball rolling for Sapper School.
Go active instead
@@Who2Rawww yea I would but my family has a farm and I still want to be apart of it. If it wasn't for the farm I would for sure go active
@@cjb5192 actually I take that back. If you’re going part time, go Guard. Same as reserves but they have more benefits since they report to the state on top of the federal government. More MOS’s and more opportunities
@@Who2Rawww agreed. I was debating on the two. I'm going 12b guard soon hopefully
@@tobycooper9218 nice I wanted 12b but settled for 12w . dope mos
Hoping to get the Ranger pack! But to whoever wins it thats awesome! Good luck out there fellas!
I know it's late but did you know anybody in other mos besides engineer series?
What's his MOS? He only said that he was an engineer.
He’s an engineer officer.
12b dude
12A
16% is crazy, how do you lose so many people in 28 days lol it must be a tough school.
It was/is
Hello, did you go when it was 44 days long? If so, how is it different from the 28 days?
At the time you had to quarantine for 2 weeks prior to starting
@Gritty Soldier thanks for the video been a engineer for almost a year now & want to up my knowledge for my job. Wondering if you could give me some must knows for a 12b?
Honestly the video is from a buddy of mine who is a 12A. I’ve never been an engineer so I can’t give you any advice... sorry brother.
@@GrittySoldier not a problem thanks for the reply sir
Gabriel, what would you like to know?

What’s the workout that your buddy recommended??
This one! grittysoldier.com/products/sapper-school-fitness-program-8-weeks 👍
That’s the one!^
Sapper pack for the next giveaway?
I like this comment

I just got back from OSUT as a 12B. If you’re Active duty they gave us the chance to go to Sapper school as long as we passed the requirements to get into Sapper school, but they only took 3 people out of like 7 that tried to go
@@jxmilli1297 thank you so much man, i really wanna try sapper, its like a dream to me, thank you for your hard work
I'm hard slotted to go in may so this helps
Same here what day in may
Any tips on patrolling ?
Patrolling is just like Ranger school. You’ll get 2 opportunities to display your leadership abilities.
Don't think I could pass it now lol. Essayons
You’ll be fine as long as you train up. The video is intended to inform, not scare
@@thomasduclos6489 I went when I was a 1SG from 307th Eng Bn. Bad knees, and well past my prime. The young Paratroopers got me through it.
@@isagoes6156 lol oh I misunderstood. I was in 307 in 2012. I went through Sapper at 34… it’s doable
What company did you serve in? I served in HHC, A Company, C Company. While in Alfa, we earned Honor Company for the an entire year. Lots of hard work for sure. Essayon
@@isagoes6156 I was in HHC (I was a medic then)

I went thru combat engineer school back in 83 when I was 16. It’s no big deal.
Hey everybody WARNING this vid is Tom running that yapping money maker of his that's about it
