    SFC(R) Tohill here... Glad you are doing these video.. Wish I would've had this when I left for basic.. I was so clueless..
    I believe a good subject for you to cover is retirement... Retirement should be on every soldiers mind from day one.. How to earn retirement point, the difference between title 10 and title 32 and how to read an RPAMS report.. Good job soldier..

      Hi Nico, My son starting basic training at Jackson, on November November 1st. (He's a bit nervous understandably about starting Boot Camp in just over 2 weeks. But I know those 9 weeks will fly by faster than he realizes and will be ready and excited for his next step after). I notice you're post has a date of almost exactly a year prior (November 2nd) Wondering how this past year has went for you there?

    • @NicolinkGamingVideos
      @NicolinkGamingVideos Год назад +1

      @@jayviviano109 I went in 2020, it was very cold and rainy but totally doable, the drill sergeant’s goals aren’t to make you fail but to teach you to overcome your challenges. At the time it was very stressful, long days, short nights, and plenty of yelling and exercise lol, but looking back I have countless happy memories of my time there. It definitely feels like it takes forever, but the last few weeks when you realize how close you are to the finish line makes it feel like it has gone by so very fast. All in all, it’s a life changing experience that taught me a lot about myself and how much more I’m capable of than I previously thought, as well as the importance of communication and teamwork. If you’ve got any more questions, I’m happy to answer!

    You kinda have that mixed up a little OSUT like I went too is called One Station Unit Training but it does not start after basic its combined with the basic so we dont do AIT after etc so if its 16 weeks OSUT for tankers for example we are on tanks day 1 of basic training and are sent to a unit straight out of osut.

      Push ups, sit-ups, air squats. When you build the strength (if you don’t have it already) add pull ups. Those will build a good foundation for other workouts. Good luck!

      There will be a physical and mental examination first, then see if you enter or not. Good luck.
