My dad was a Navy Corpsman during Vietnam on the USS Haven. Just the other day he was at the gas station and a Marine paid for his tank of gas. Always take care of Doc.
Mike Powers your another liar on RUclips

1 - Musician
2 - Air Crewman
3 - Hospital Corpsman

5 - Mass Communication Specialist
Thank you
Thank you
Ooh i wanna be an MC
Is an Operations Specialist a good job?
Josh Vieira I’d like some insight on that too. I go to basic May 17th.
LETS FUCKING GO !!!
make sure you show some love on this video if you want to see a Part II !
I liked the video :)
I'm replying to you, as i'm sure Nicky is going to see this as well, but thanks a lot for covering MU's i've NEVER seen anyone cover this rate. Personally i don't know much about the Navy or Air Force band, but policies across the armed service bands vary, i had an ex-band director in HS who played for the 1st and 8th Drum & Bugle Corps. in Washington D.C. (hot shit). In the Army a bachelor's degree will give you the automatic rank of E-3 i can't remember if before the AFSOM (now called the NSOM). In the Marine Corps. it's far from the same as Marines they all start on a level playing field (rankwise) if you apply for the "President's Own" you achieve the automatic rank of E-6 and don't have to attend boot camp, these are the top of the line players, most of these players are packing masters and or PHD's accompanied by 10-20+ years of knowledge, these are your band directors, orchestral players, the likes
It's really interesting getting into the armed service band's policies as they often change, travel opportunities are ridiculously vast, if you score a 3.0 (the Marines just got a new grading rubric/system) or above in the Marine Corps. you can choose any of the 12 field bands, 10 in the continental United States, one in Hawaii, or overseas in Okinawa. Good shit.
All this info was scrambled up but i wanted to clear things up a little if i could. Less than 1% of Marines go through the Naval School of Music, and i think it's safe to assume that those numbers are consistent across all branches.
For the Marines only 4 seats are open per fiscal year.
Most people tend to gravitate towards the other armed service bands for several reasons, if you'd like to know more i can tell you over PM or get you in touch with someone who can answer any of your questions in regards to that.
I'm just telling you what I know, i'm not a Marine, or any servicemember former or present for that matter.
Alejandro Ruiz I don't play any instruments but do all of the musicians play classical instruments or do some of them play things like the guitar?
Yes, the Marine Corps. does have guitarists, don't know about the other branches.
Quick question, JTsuits, when you said MA "actually got pretty close" was you referring to close to the top 5 or close to the worst 5? lol
If you came here from JTSUITS channel like this comment! :)
NICKY MGTV what did you do in the Navy
hospital corpsman (HM)
O
I sub to u
Ok I finally have time to stalk people on youtube! Also mar 17-23 LA baby!
Don't ever forget that Navy stands for 'never again volunteer yourself'. My favorite thing I heard while I was in.
still true to this day lol
followed shortly by "Oh yeah on the ship? try to sleep as much as possible. We call that shit rack to the future"
@@LibbyOMG my favorite was when i got to say i have 1 day left and a wake up
Nailed another virgin yesterday
@@NICKYMGTV bro. Really y r u hate the navy? U always creating negative content about navy so the viewers hates the navy too
So happy you guys mentioned MCs. I love working with the camera, making short films is one of my favorite pass times. I recently found out that I can do this sort of thing through the military. There is not a lot of information about on this job so I wasn't sure what to think. Definitely going to talk to a recruiter this year!
All the best history videos where filmed by MC's. I got to see the USS Forrestal fire because of those huge cameras on the ship. My father told the story but I got to see just how scary it was.
Doing research on joining the navy and I’ve loved both of yalls channels. Keep up the good work guys
Hey guys my daughter just did her audition for the navy band (MU) and passed she will go in as E-4 ! Proud retired navy dad
Wow, that's awesome! I've never heard of anyone enlisted going in as an E-4. Congrats to her!
That's amazing, man. The military has some insane requirements to get in as a musician. Mad respect to your daughter.
unlikely to be an E4 going in..but i'll let it slide
Bob Smithereens what
Anonymous Alias good for you for letting it slide ! As I ment to say upon graduation from boot camp she will be an E-4 . Only a douche bag wouldn’t make it through ! But she will.
AW "So Others May Live" Hooyah! best rate hands down.
Yes! I've been looking to become an MC but it seems like no one ever talks about it. Glad to have confirmation it's the right choice.
good luck!
Your doing great dude keep up the good work!!!!!
the mash up i’ve been wanting
I thought this video was called "two sailors and a cup"
me and JTsuits filmed one but it was quickly flagged. Sorry!
🤣
7 years as a navy air traffic control, a little stressful at times but you normally got a good rotation between sea and shore duty.
I just swore in yesterday! Went AW!! Glad to see this made second on the list!!
This collab makes me so frikkin happy
thanks! more to come :)
I was a Corpsman and glad I chose that rate in boot camp. I learned a lot in the medical field and a lot more being assigned to a Marine Unit based in Hawaii (my dream post which came true thank God)!
Did you choose to go green side?
I was an Interior Communication Electrician on the Lincoln from 01-04. IC's is one of the best ratings. Even underway we had a phone line home and everyone wanted to use it.
medical has a phone line as well which is awesome! thanks for your service!
Thank you. I always tell everyone LS is the best rate. Glad to see it on your list.
Was a DC1 (SW/AW) b4 i left and I'M grateful for anyone who served the WORLD'S GREATEST NAVY... THANKS FOR THE VIDEO GUYS... U GOTTA KNOW DC TO BE ON THE SHIP SO U GOTTA LEARN FROM ME... USED 2 LOVE THAT...
When my recruiter asked me why I was taking to long to enlist, Itold him it was because I wanted to make a good asvab score so I can choose a good rate. I mentioned "pick your rate pick your fate" and he immediately responded with "no you make your own fate" very seriously.. I was conflicted but still believe pick your rate pick your fate lol
Asvab score truly is important. I scored high enough to choose any job i wanted. I believe it was because i took the picat instead.
@@tyson1chicken That's what I'm going to take first, I don't want to bomb that and have to take the asvab. Since you only have one shot on the picat I'm trying to prepare for it the best I possibly can. The airforce recruiter was much more patient and on the same page as me when it comes to the importance of studying.. navy recruiters truly just want you immediately and only care about a passing score, and I'm not cool with barely making it.
@@kassiea7448 very true. you sound smart so you'll probably do good. i got a 96 for nuke.
good stuff my fellow HM! good luck on your channel.
Thanks papa fern!
came here after watching the five worst, got yourself a new sub man i love your videos!
thank you!
I'm a fan of Jt but I am a former Seabee and I thank both of you for these they are awesome
Why the dude on the right look like a male version of Khloé Kardashian ? Lmao
😬😬😬😂😂😂
Virtus Potentia 😂😂
😭😭
He looks like he’s 26 but also 13 lol 😂
He’s Freddy from iCarly’s brother
SAAAAAAAAY WHAAAAT!!! Keep it up. Wish we could have gotten some stuff done in Spain.
its a small navy man! i'll see you again and we'll cover your rate. A lot of people are curious!
Nice to see love for the musicians!
Had to show love and sub awhile back when you appeared on JT's channel. You definitely made me feel a lot better on my rate as an HM. I have more questions but idk where to start
Ask away! I'm always stoked to get people in the HM community. It's honestly a highly desirable rate because of our quality of life, applicability to civilian world, and much more.
I'm a waitress and we have a regular guest that use to be a Mass communication specialist. I remember so well because when I saw his ID to discount his food I asked him what did he do in the Navy and he said "while in the Navy I shot a lot of planes and I shot hundreds of people like if it was nothing....... (Long pause puts on serious face) not with a gun but with my camera(proceeds to laugh😂😂😂😂). I also have an ex that left to the Navy in 2014. My ex signed up for 8 years and my ex is in aviation.
It's always cool running in to people i the military because the stories constantly vary.
Hospital Corpsman is the absolute BEST. You can do most ANYTHING. I was a ward corpsman, an orthopedic tech, Biomedical Repair tech, EMT and a Surface Force Independent Duty Corpsman. Also, anywhere a sailor or marine goes, so does the corpsman. I base this on 20 years of being an Corpsman.
#1 SAR corpsman. Did 10 years and loved every minute. Not only are you essential air crew but you can bounce between fleet marine for combat SAR (plenty of trigger time for the gun nuts) or navy for carrier/land based SAR units (mostly civilian rescue). Certainly easier if your fit but the command structure is very minimal, corpsman generally don’t have a lot of people looking over their shoulder and have a little more autonomy.
Phew, thank you! I'm becoming an LS and I was unsure if it was good (I took it because of my aunt's recommendation.) But you guys made it seem fun :D.
Great Video! Where would you rate an AT? I was an AT calibration specialist then went to a P3 squadron. Loved being an AT.
Nothing but love for the Corpsman.
You guys are a trip LOL, I retired as a STG 11 years ago but love watching these vids, thanks for taking up the slack from us old guys :D (Nicky my bro in law was a corpsman also I love the stories I get from him)
Thanks for the info i got meps tomorrow this will help me alot picking my rate
came here from JT, subscribed!
Thanks! keep coming back.
GMG IS BY FAR ONE OF THE BEST RATE THERE IS. I retired as a GMG1 73-93, 3- ships, 3-shore bases including RTC San Diego
nah
What’s gmg
@@treroney4720 Gunners Mate Gun
Watching this as an active duty HM at fmtb and man it makes me so happy that hm is on the list. I love my job and I've never been so proud to be a corpsman! Rah
semper fi kill! I would call you doc but you don't rate yet. Where you going after field med?
Amazing description of the MU audition process, Im actually studying hard to get the position in any branch but hopefully Army. A RUclips video is funnily enough a great way to show a couple of your pieces but they're probably gonna wanna know your theory and reading skills too. So its a good idea but you need to cover other areas. I luckily already have a Bachelors in Music so I've covered the basics in regards to Western Popular Music, Piano and Guitar a long time ago so I was hoping to get the rank of specialist really quick.
Great videos man the military sure has some cool jobs
1. Electronics Technician (Submarine, Radio Division)
2. Electronics Technician (Submarine, Navigation)
3. Machinists Mate (Submarine, A-Div)
4. Machinists Mate (Submarine, Torpedo Division)
5. Fire Control Technician (Submarine)
Bo Hunt so everything women can't be in... lol
Actually, women are on submarines now.
TheStoryOfMyLife woooow
Amethyst.on.fleek lol what ? Women can't go on submarines .
TheStoryOfMyLife, actually, yes, they are on submarines. Have been for a few years now. Welcome to the new Navy.
I want to join next year. Navy Reserves. Just getting out of massage school and hoping to work my way into physical therapy in the Navy. Go Navy!
Going in as an MC. I'm so hyped
I was a Radarman and also trained in Electronic Warfare. Later on EWT became a separate rate but it was really cool standing watch in ECM listening to signals and identifying them.
The real question is what you want from the Navy. Many jobs are gonna be tougher but will make a very high salary when you get out.
going back and forth from the army to the navy . I'm scared I'll get a bad list of jobs and won't have a choice but to say yes. The army says they can give me my job before I enlist. i scored a 70 on the asvab and I'm a high school senior, however I have a criminal record. I'm not 100 on what I want to do but being a Corpsman would be cool if I can travel. The navy is also really pushing for reserves. I want to go to college. but I'm thinking I'm not mature enough at 19 to choose a college major but also leaving home seems kinda hard. woah kinda rambled
rambling is okay man this is a big decision. No job is guaranteed until you have a signed contract saying it which is how the navy does it. You ultimately choose your career and you're considered an adult so make sure when you go in there you tell your goals and aspirations. I totally understand about the college major because I felt the same way. Do an enlistment, spend those years brain storming, and then go to college way more mature and with more experience. I highly suggest not doing reserves because you dont get the full experience. Corpsman are EVERYWHERE so you will travel. Keep your nose clean, join, and be the best you that you can be. Good luck!
Criminal record?
@@JeffSpehar-ov1cn :0
Caiden Simpson i feel you
Caiden Simpson a year later, I hope your happy w/ decision. I am debating Air Force or Navy
I was an AT and aircrewman. Loved both. Being an AT got me the aircrewman slot. Flew from Adak, Alaska to Brisbane, Australia, and everywhere in between. Much better than the war zone around Vietnam.
Retired Corpsman here! Retired in 2005! I was NEC8506 Laboratory Technologist. I wish I stayed Quad Zero regular Corpsman, the real Docs so hats off to you Nicky for going green side at one point! I wanted Aviatio Boatswains Mate and they decided to give me HM instead. Oh during Desert Storm, I was in the USNS Comfort TAH20 Hospital ship or what we called, the Love Boat cause it was white!!! LOL!!! Love you both and your channels! Nwew subscriuber here! JT I also subscribed to your channel!!! Cheers!!!
I leave on Sunday for boot camp and my rate is LS! 😬😄
Lizzi Watson how was it. I’m supposed to enlist soon for ls
What about IT?
This is the first video I’ve seen of both of you so long ago and nowwwwe guess who’s finally going to meps in less than a week
Here I am watching your video that was years ago as my wife leaves for boot camp to the Navy in 3 days! I was a EO (Seabee) pretty cool to watch this
Got a 91 on my ASVAB today super excited to figure out what job I’m gonna go into
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
What rate did you pick and how was your experience?
The MC rate is life. I got crazy lucky to be one. Its the most worth job ever.
tyler161997 ugh that's the job I want, I just put in my dar form for it. If you don't mind me asking what were your asvab scores?
Tabitha Chan I had an 76 but my class was full of 80+ and a few below me but now they are now only accepting over 80s. The reason we were able to get it is because the scores that brought our average down was mechanical and electrical sections mostly with high sections of the required high areas (you can see the sections you need to score well in on the navy website
How did I know I'd find you here lol
I'm going in as a LS.
Its more reassuring knowing it is even in your guys' Top 5.
Looks like it'll be easy for me to make friends. I got the good goods.
Future MC right here. I'm not going to boot camp until September. I was thinking about switching jobs to leave sooner, but this may have changed my mind. Great video!
don't change it! its a good stepping stone. Many of the MC's I have known really enjoy their job.
Good to know! What jobs do they have when they get out the military? Do they make rank slow?
I just got back from meps, having to get a waiver for my eyes by fingers crossed! Can't do aviation because I don't have depth perception says my recruiter, I wanted to do what JT did but this helps ALOT thanks man!
awesome man! good luck on your enlistment. Come back for more videos or questions!
how quickly can you rank being a corpsman ? I hear it's very slow
I just got accepted as a Navy MU as a vocalist, this video made me even more excited! I leave for boot camp in 15 days!
What's MU?
I knew an MU when I was stationed in New Orleans. He said he was never getting out. He was paid to pay and had a standing gig with a band down in the French Quarter when he was in town. He loved it. I met a Marine in the MC band and she and her band mates did security patrols in Bagdad.
I ship June 19th for AW. I'm super excited!
good luck. Let me know how you do in basic.
NICKY MGTV thanks man! Will do
MarcusLeGoat IM GONNA BE AW TOO
How do i find out which one is best and better suited for me? There is so many that sound so great, i can't choose.
To be honest you have to be open minded
Doing dual packet to try and get officer and my enlisted job if I don't get officer is Air Crew. Thanks for the video guys. I don't feel so bad if i'm not able to make officer now. Woot!
LS! There’s also a ton of places we can be sent to, and it relates well to the private sector.
I just got my aircrew contract in the Marines 😎
congrats!!!
NICKY MGTV thanks man
I’m an LS!! Im shipping April 6, 2020
Jerimiah Abad I ship the very next day for LS as well!
They randomly switched my rate to LS without me saying anything due to shipping date issues. I'm really trying to change my job before I go to basic lol.
Ls is the hookup. Basically dealing with supplies and aircraft and/ or boat parts
Someone tell me who you talked to to get LS!!! I’m trying to get in Navy and that’s what I wanna do!
Ayeeeeeeeeee One time for the aircrewmen!
Retired FC here. Loved it. Getting to shoot different weapons and at a time when we actually got to put warheads on foreheads. Just luck with that. Sparrow, CIWS and Tomahawk. Got to play a lot of call of duty as a tomahawk tech 😂.
You missed Master at Arms. Thank you, from MA1(EXW).
PreacherJimC Hooyah MAs!!! Was undes and struck MA about 5 years ago. Love every minute of it.
Hey man! Can you make a video talking about BU´s, Seabees and the navy construction force in general? Like is dangerous to be a BU, obviously every job has a little risk but is this one more risky?
i'm looking in to getting a seabee on the channel
NICKY MGTV awesome!
NICKY MGTV Seabee here lol
Knew my job would make the cut. Graduating MC A-school this tuesday, can't wait for the fleet!
Jimmy Dela Pena the fleets blows lmao
jimmy you better take some sweet photos of me working....
NICKY MGTV ,
What about the jobs that lead to a great civilian career? My brother was a corpsman in the Navy and now works for the VA as a nurse.
I was a Nuke ET '82 to '88. The best job to have behind you. If you can get through those 6 years, you can do anything.
Fuck yeah AW made the list ;)
Hooyah aircrew. Rescue swimmers have the life:)
I almost went that way but I ended up being a seabee. Best part of the navy!
@@shayzak09 how did you like being a Seabee and what was it like and were you ever on the ship ? Lol
Haha I just found your videos and was already subscribed to him lol
Hey Nicky,
Do you think you can make a video that goes more in depth about MU’s in the Navy? I try looking for videos on RUclips but it’s very general.
Thanks man!
Being on ship is like being in prison. Coming fron someone with real life experience in both, this is by far the most accurate comparison possible!!!! Love it!😂😂😂
I'm definitely being a corpsman
I was a Corpsman. I went into the Navy Reserves as a paramedic not basic EMT with 12 years experience. I got a higher rank then people that had been in the service 20 years. They would find out and get pissed at me. If you want to be a Corpsman beware the rate is the same but the over jobs have changed. Everyone goes through basic Corpsman school but your job will be different die to the amount of Corpsman in the service today. I suggest you do a decent amount of research first. I highly suggest before enlisting go to Basice EMT school get your time under your belt and go to paramedic school. If your a paramedic in the navy you get the best locations and more responsibility. Paramedics are highly skilled with more specialized training then the nurses and EMT Basic. We aren't called street docs for nothing. All of the responsibility falls on you. So I on any given emergency or situation where your the most highly trained you will be giving orders.
I will be shipped in Feb 14 next year with the Seaman (PACT). May you tell us more what the Seaman (PACT) does since it is considered undesignated career. Love your channel much!
I can remember when the Music School was moved to Little Creek. They converted an old two story barracks into the school then. One time Arthur Fielder directed a Christmas program. That was in the 60 's
Have you seen any Aerographers mates I never see any videos on this rate. Its the job I picked and apparently ags are unicorns in the navy.
Heard AGs are amazing. Easy job, and fast rank.
Not a common rate. They're also known as weather guessers, but haven't dealt with them enough to give much information. I did know a chief that was one but we're not in contact anymore.
any rate can have fast rank depending on the person.
M! AGs have 100% advancement to First Class
I've worked with AGs before, and yeah their advancement is crazy fast lol! It's like if an STG and a QM got busy and had a boat baby, then that would be an AG :D
What about DC? (Emergency Fire and Rescue)
Fuck that noise. Engineering is the worst
How is it the worst?
Fuck that done do it bro especially small boys
You and JTSuits make some fun videos. Thank-you. Further down in the cmments is a guy who listed titles of special ops. He includes Search & Rescue as if he were crrecting yu. You mentined AW. The helo guys, the AWs on the carrier; they're primary collateral duties is SAR. And, some of your fellow mechs were also SAR when the CH-46 was still around. And secondly, there're many corpsmen who ride shotgun on recon and other "special op" runs. And lastly, EVERYBODY works damage control, which can be as dramatic as any pipe dream's orgasm. Anchors away, my boys.
I signed as HM a few weeks ago! Very excited
Kaylie Pichler greatest rate in the Navy
All Rates in the Navy work for "The Fire Controlman".
The Navy's primary mission is to maintain military presence and carry out operations across the globe... In order to do that we blow stuff up. The FC is the key to this mission.
Everything in the Navy is subject to change. Including rates being merged, removed and eaten by dust bunnies. These are just examples of why other rates work for the FC.
Air Rates. All air rates in the Navy in one way or another assist in putting "Friendly” Aircraft (AKA Targets) in the air. This tends to lure “Hostile” aircraft out. Which then FC’s will have to blow them up.
AG They go to www.weather.com and see what tomorrows weather will be like. They give their weather presentation during briefs to soothe the Officers. Real sailors never go outside or give a crap about the weather. We're too busy fixing and operating equipment that blows stuff up. FC's do care about ducting but not about the actual weather.
BM They train, direct, and supervise others in marlinespike, deck and boat seamanship; they paint to make the ship look nice. That way when they take pictures after the FC's blow stuff up it looks good. Then FC's get more ribbons. BM's also help FC's get on liberty faster by doing all the work we don't like. BM's Work for the FC's.
CT control the flow of messages and information. They sit in a secret room and do strange things that no one knows about. Sooner or later the information they collect is used to blow stuff up. So there for they work for the FC's.
DC Perform the work necessary for damage control. They repair damage control equipment and systems. So if by some means we take an incoming missile, the FC's can continue to blow stuff up.
DT Dentist/assistants. They keep FC's teeth happy. That way the FC's are happy and don't blow stuff up when they aren't suppose too. Clean strong teeth are good for biting. If you touch an FC's console/equipment or food you will get bit.
EM The operation and repair of the ship's electrical power plant and electrical equipment. They give FC's power so they can blow stuff up.
ET Responsible for a bunch of electronic equipment; communications, cheap radar. They take care of that easy electronics so the FC's don't have too. That way the FC's have more time to blow stuff up. ET's should also take a sanity test. During Techcore they had a chance to become an FC. Not everyone can be a master of lethality and bring destruction to our enemies. Its just in a ET's nature to be a big baby and not want to destroy things.
CTT Operate and maintain electronic equipment used in navigation, target detection and location, and the prevention of spying by enemies. They can determine friend or foe by looking at emissions. If they think it is a bad guy we blow it up. EW’s are also good for bringing FC’s snacks. The CTT is the guy who sleeps in combat just a tad less than a OS.
FC Maintain and operate weapon systems used on combat ships. Complex electronics are used to ensure correct missile guidance and other such ordnance. This equipment includes as such; Radar, computers, weapons-direction equipment, target-designation systems and range finders. FC's represent the technical and tactical Weappn System experts in the Navy. Warships are made to go to war, and FC's are made to fight wars.
FC (AEGIS) FC's that are in the AEGIS weapon system. They should be considered something different from other FC's. AEGIS is split into elements. Examples such as; SPY, Computer, FCS/ORTS and Display. SPY Techs work on the SPY Radar, the main (and only) Search and Track Fire Control radar for the AEGIS weapon system. Computer Tech's sleep in most of the day. Once in a while they change a tape or answer a phone. FCS/ORTS Techs sleep all day as well, but the sit on the Missile System Supervisor Console and get to push the pretty buttons. Display, they fix consoles and everything else related to AEGIS. Or they do work the computer techs should be doing. There are many different types of FC's. The main purpose of them all is to BLOW STUFF UP!!! Or help in the process in doing so. Without FC's Navy ships would be used as tug boats or crappy cruise liners.
FT They are FC's underwater. They are our distant cousins and they blow stuff up too!
GM Maintain and repair gunnery systems. Some times even missile-launching systems. They clean them and paint them up all nice and pretty. When the FC's blow stuff up, the GM's stuff gets dirty. They also load the ordnance on the ship. That way FC's can blow stuff up. They are a form of FC that went horribly wrong early on in the process a million years ago when we were all monkeys. Due to their inbreeding they can't blow stuff up. They enjoy throwing poop, wrestling, and smashing each others heads into FC equipment so FC's have faults to fix. GM's are however evolving and all FC's should maintain a watchful eye on them. Soon they may have 4 arms and several sets of eyes. Which will be used to aim and throw poop better.
GS Operate, repair, and maintain main propulsion machinery. They are the stinky guys who make sure the ship can move. It sure is hot down in the engineering spaces. About 50 degrees hotter than nice Air Conditioned FC spaces. They ensure the ship gets the FC’s where they need to go to blow stuff up.
HM They keep FC's healthy and "happy". They give us cool drugs to make us crazy. Their cure for all you pains and sickness is "Motrin". "Motrin" makes FC's angry, so we blow stuff up.
HT Responsible for maintaining ship's hulls, fittings, piping systems, and machinery. They are plumbers. They also get to weld some times. They fix the toilets so the FC's can poop. FC's enjoy reading in the crapper about blowing stuff up.
IC Operate and repair devices used in ship's interior communicates systems. They fix phones so the FC's can talk. They also run SITE TV, and stuff like that. So FC's can watch TV. The main thing they do is keep the gyro running, which is very important. That way FC's can blow stuff up.
IS Get secret military information. Gather Intel to assist in the destruction of the evil doers. The information they provide will help FC’s blow things up.
MA Help keep law and order on the ship. That way the FC's don't have to kill everyone aboard. MA’s make FC's happy by letting FC's get away with stuff like "Training Videos". FC's like to watch them. That makes them happy. Then they go blow stuff up.
CS They cook food and feed FC's. FC's like MS's because FC's are really hungry after blowing stuff up. Next time you see an MS tell them FC's love them. Their food gives us gas so in combat FC's will always win in a farting contest. Other rates cannot properly digest food that MS's make. Its referred as "Death from Within". It could be considered a weapon or cruel punishment in some Countries. Send them our cooks and they shall surely die. (Recently changed to CS, Culinary Specialist.)
MM Operate and maintain a bunch of stuff for ship propulsion and auxiliary machinery. Aux equipment like elevators, refrigeration plants, air conditioning systems and desalinization plants. They are in the Engineering department. So like most if not all engineers, they keep the ship moving and operating so FC's can go BLOW stuff up.
MR Skilled machine-tool operators. They make replacement parts for various types of equipment. They some times give or make FC’s parts to help them fix their gear. For example bolts, nuts and gaskets. Some MR’s work on the VCHT system as well. (See HT)
NC ( Try to get FC's to reenlist, with promises of nice SRB and the endless quest to blow stuff up.
OS Pretend to operate radar’s, navigation and communications equipment. They pretty much clean Combat Information Center and get FC's a coke to drink. They operate a consoles and talk on Red phones. They also are expertly skilled at writing backwards. OS's brake FC's stuff (consoles) so we get mad and blow stuff up. Hey TIC correlate my middle finger in front of your face. OS's love to induce Operator Error Faults into any piece of equipment they touch.
PS Bug FC's about personal requirements rights and benefits. They also keep records up to date. That way when a FC gets an award it goes into his Service record. That makes FC's happy so they go blow stuff up and get paid.
QM Steer the ship and skillfully navigate the ship. That way FC's are closer to the stuff they blow up so they can take pictures.
IT They use to be RM's (Radioman) Operate communications. Like E-mail and load crypto as well. That way FC's can write home about stuff they blew up. Plus the ship can talk to other ships about stuff the FC's blew up. That way the FC's feel good.
SH Manage barber shops, ships store etc. That way FC's can have candy that the OS's, ET's, ST's and GM's buy them. The FC's can also get a haircut and look sharp for the pictures after blowing stuff up.
LS Supply clerks. They order stuff for the ship. That way the FC's can have new parts for the equipment. Or a new shirt and some pants. LS's get us stuff and our mail so we can blow stuff up.
ST Look for things long and hard full of seaman. ST's try to find subs. Its like finding a flash light in a bathtub using your ear. But usually the FC's find subs when their periscope pops up from the water. Then the FC's blow the sub up. ST's focus on Underwater Warfare so we can focus on the real warfare areas like Air, Surface and Strike warfare.
YN Secretarial work and clerical work. They write things into FC's records so the FC's can blow stuff up. YN's do a lot of paper work. So they are "busy" and can never help FC's. So FC's get mad and blow stuff up. YN's like many other rates have working hours. Please come back tomorrow at 0800.
You, my good sir are freaking highlarious.
I was an OS back when we weren't only paper pushers and intell wonks. I've seen some FC's get into some crap when their equipment broke and watched them pull their hair out. They earn their money that is for sure.
Riley S I’m a FC (FCA2) and that was probably the gayest shit I’ve seen
Lmao
you sound like an 0311 that lost his way at the recruiters office
Just joined as GM Gunners Mate yesterday how do they stack up on the list
not a bad rate, just didn't make the list.
Cody Talbert - GMs work with cool shit, but they're not always the brightest bunch.
I plan on joining the navy (going to meps) in about two more months and im super stoked for it. Literally cant wait, Im still not sure what job I want yet... but this video does help (:
awesome! keep watching for more...
FMF corpsman hands down.
If you go to a grunt unit and can prove yourself early on. That means PT, humps, range and the occasional throw down when needed than you can do no wrong. Going marine regs is a bonus. The medical experience and freedom to do your job can't be found anywhere else. Both officers and senior NCOs value your opinion and you have this unofficial place in the chain of command where your abilities not your rank count. Once in a while you have to play Marine games when the company or battalion goes on restriction or lives in tent city for either room inspection failures or alcohol related incidents but that just cements the brotherhood.
Hey gonna be shipping out May 2nd and I only got one question, is there a time limit on taking a shit while in boot camp?
Chuck T's97 did you ever find out?
Yeah I’m curious how long did you end up taking shits for?
I didn’t know Shawn Mendes brother worked in the navy 🤔🤔🤔😂
In twenty years in the USN worked at the Armed Forces Staff College in Norfolk, Little Creek Amphib base, Fleet Operations Control Center in HI on closed circuit TV, SubDEvGroup on on the Bathyscaph II simulator, the Amphib School Coronado teaching Naval Gunfire, and finally at Pinecastle EWR and bombing range. only 5 months at sea on a floating drydock on the Scorpion operations. 1960-1980 as a Tradevman, retired at E6
@6:07 As a Corpsman veteran, the part was being able to deploy with any unit in the Marines and Navy. Like, SEALs, EOD, Seabees, Marine Recon, etc. You can even do submarine duty as an IDC.
IDC is what's up!
kinda shocked IT is not on the list
solid rate, fast advancement currently, and good prospects. Top 6 just didn't have a good ring to it.
should of been top10
The Corey Becraft show what about gm?
Yeah, the only problem with IT is that people expect you to troubleshoot for 12 hours straight, and then study for another 4 hours afterward. Brains don't work that way.
My brother's in IT. His only complaint is that its boring.
But then again, hes on a smaller ship.
WHATUPFAYM!
Electronic Technician on a Fast Frigate home port Charleston, S.C. Med., Virg Is, South America, Maine, NorthAtlantic. Smaller ships pull into more ports. Sonar Techs, OS, EW, FT,...
I was a 6 year ET, small ship east coast, and extended a year for shore duty for Rota, Spain,
Make the most of where your at. Good manners, a smile.and you'll become a more humble happy person :)
Loved smaller ships. I served on an FF a DD and a DDG for me they were the best.
I leave for RTC soon and I signed on as an HM glad I got a job that sounds good haha
How is the CTT rate when you're in and does it transfer well for civilian life? I took the 6 year AEF contract and I ship out Feb 27th!
Go IT
Stanley Sanders I'm already going to be a CTT
Nick ok as someone who actually knows that rate as a 6 yr ctt you can only go to a ship for your first ascension but after that it will be more open school is 1 year and a half long and when it comes to civilian there is alot of money to be made as a civilian contractor
Nick and dont listen to him you'll learn pretty quick at corry station that the ITs are as bad as nukes when it cones to common sense
Nick but any other questions that arent classified i can help you out
#1 AM!! 120!!!
sry for the dislike :)
fair list tho, some HMs have it hard too is not as easy as you made it sound, plus advancement sucks too... LS can be very boring but they can go anywhere and advancement is ok. anything aviation is where it's at.... subscribed
we screw we nut we bolt ;)
JTsuits oh lordy
I agree with you Mega... I know a lot of corpsmen that were kicked out because they couldn't advance in time. I Am a LS and I worked with Corpsmen for 9 months on the ship so I can tell you a lot about both rates. LS job... for one is NOT boring. there is too much work all the time... but it is boring work. its counting and running back and forth between storeroom and stocking shelves all day. and inport we are usually the last ones off the boat... advancement isn't too bad but others have it nicer. Like HT... they just have to know their name to advance.
The best rate in aviation imo... there’s so many different job as an AM pretty much an all around Mech.. busiest shop period
You forgot EM. Always let an electrician check your shorts!. but shout out to my corpsmen..always hooked me up morning after drinking the night before while land based
Crazy I watched yall in HS now 6 yrs later I’m going fr
