    I spent 11 years at FDNY in the 10th Mountain Division as a 12B (Combat Engineer). Loved it. The video is very accurate concerning the high number of deployments and schools. The training is tough and often. I loved it when soldiers from the mechanized army would rotate into Fort Drum. The mech soldiers would wig out when they were told we were walking 20 miles to go to the woods to start the exercise. I also know that when I attended schools away from FDNY with soldiers from other divisions (including 101st and 82nd), I was always in much better physical shape than the other soldiers.

We were issued WW2 skis and snow shoes. Got a three hour class and then hit the local training area. Prior to being in the 10th MTN DIV I was in 1/504 INF BN 82nd ABN DIV. Went to Recondo School and wound up in the Recon PLT. Learned a lot in both units, however, being in the 10th MTN DIV was truly a kick in the nuts!

      @@nikkoortiz I’ll tell a short story about him that has been told in my family for while:
      So he was the sergeant of his squad as was also assigned himself the designated scout and one snowy night in the Italian mountains he decides after he and his squad are their all set up on the base of this hill he goes up it to check the perimeter and spots an actual nazi officer (not an Italian, actual German), before my great grandfather could react the nazi spots him also and pulls out his Luger and fires at my great grandfather so the first thing my grandpa does is roll down the hill like a maniac and (keep in mind his jacket is unbuttoned) once he heard the distinctive sound of the firing pin going off when the Luger ran out of ammo my grandfather stands up pops the officer, when that was done he looks down to check for any holes and none of them hit him but his jacket was riddled with holes. To this day my great grandma still has that jacket and the Luger (which had the officer’s name engraved on it) as a war trophy.
