    I enlisted in the Army back in 1986 as an 11 Bravo with an Airborne Contract. It's a dangerous job doing live fire exercises with fire and maneuver, things like being injured or killed can be a possibility then of course combat deployment. Being in an Airborne unit it's very dangerous because every soldier in the unit is a Paratrooper slot. Every soldier is required to jump once a quarter or 4 times a year to maintain jump status to get Hazardous Duty Pay every month. In my unit every field exercise was a night time jump with combat equipment, and every exercise deployment was a jump once again with combat equipment during peace time. For combat as an infantryman it's going to get real, I did the Panama Invasion 1989-90 and Iraq 2006-08. Yes 11 Bravo and being a Paratrooper is dangerous in peace and combat.

I never saw any stats that confirmed it, but the majority of the time I heard of a Soldier being captured, they were an 88M more often than not. If I were to avoid MOS's based on fear of danger, then 88M would be #1 on the list for me.

    As a voice for the red-headed stepchild MOS on this channel, 13F is a VERY dangerous job. You're the eyes and ears of indirect fire. Telling field artillery, mortars, helicopters and even jets where their targets are located has you in a very dangerous place. On top of that if you are not good at your basic job skills you're putting yourself in additional danger for some obvious reasons. And to cap it off, you're embedded WITH the infantry, but with the added danger of having a giant antenna sticking out of your back. It is a VERY dangerous job, and only made safe if you are truly proficient at the vast slew of tasks you have to constantly train on beyond all the gunfighting and maneuver skills of your infantry and cavalry counterparts.

    Recovery operator (H8) was extremely dangerous. Without us the convoys could not operate. Iraq was a convoy war and recoveries were CONSTANT. The missions for recovery were ridiculous and the OPTEMPO was extremely high. Also, 19D which is what I became after recovery is also extremely dangerous because we did what infantry did, and also our MOS covers what multiple MOS’s do. We also move ahead of the main body and conduct recon and our objective is not to be detected.

    Thank you for getting 12B right. I once saw some clueless RUclipsr rank Combat Engineer as "not dangerous". (Like wtf man?) He thought we hung around base sitting in bulldozers. To be fair, that is part of what an engineer battalion does, but those are more heavy equipment operators. 12Bs are usually breaching minefields, finding IEDs, or attached to infantry.

    I was a supply guy, and the only dangerous part was same reason why you said motar T is dangerous... convoys. Convoys are very dangerous, convoys like to be targeted, and of course in GWOT the IEDs. One convoy I was on in Iraq got lit up on our way to get some gear to some guys out at some combat outpost, it was a long convoy. Our SOP was to keep pushing...unless a truck went down we keep moving, turret gunners may return fire but tbh that's about it...we keep moving. Truck driver was one of the most dangerous jobs In certain parts of Afghanistan...our second deployment we lost damn near every truck due to IED... almost every one of them was driven by a our Motor T guys. One of my good friends who was Motor T got blown up 4 different times...the third time they took him off the wheel and put him as a gunner, last time he got hit it was bad and it tipped the truck and he flew out of the gunner hatch and almost got crushed by the truck. He got really bad TBI from those blasts and was medically retired. Motor T can definitely be dangerous in a warzone.

    Getting ready to contract for 92R next week. Kinda so so about it because I scored a 93 on my ASVAB and the recruiters were telling me how I’ll be eligible for all these top tier jobs but then when they showed me my offers, I had 21 total and half were combat roles (which I did not want) the rest were like missile operators or didn’t come with a bonus, and it pretty much left me with about 4 options that sounded meh and at least came with a bonus. 92R being one of them. It didn’t sound too bad when they told me what paths and opportunities 92R leads to but when I read about it online I saw a lot of stuff saying that 92R’s hate their jobs, they’re some of the most unhappy and cranky troops, and they have the highest drug usage. So now I’m like oh… But I am really attracted to the chance to try out for the golden knights jump team or becoming a free fall instructor later on down the line. The recruiters also told me that if I try to become a warrant officer in 92R, I can apply to become a pilot which would also be worth it but I haven’t found anything that supports that.

Also as a cook we had field equipment that could have been considered to be bombs (M-2 burners). There are other areas of being a cook that were dangerous in the field environment. Back in a building (mess hall) no issue very safe!

    Many of the jobs that are primarily done outdoors near large or even small equipment can be dangerous if you do your job stupidly. That means not remembering your training, lack of situational awareness or just plain not taking your job seriously. I was a Huey mech (67N), I have seen where people have walked into tail rotors, not ducked, ie exiting the helicopter correctly and other stupid things. I know of people getting killed on training exercises because they did not pay attention, were goofing off or did something moronic. When I first went into Armor, before changing MOS's I was told by an old tanker that this equipment is stupid. It doesn't care who it kills or what uniform you wear. Keep it safe, HOORAH !

    I think I see where a lot of people are fucking up with this thought of joining the army and thinking they’re just gonna do some job and get away with not having to do combat or infantry or whatever bottom line is you’re in the army no matter what skill you have your trained for combat. I’m not even fully enlisted and I understand that I think I see where a lot of these peoples comments are coming from. I think a lot of these people just thought they could get away with being in the army but not having to participate in it. That’s the worst mentality you could have for joining the army ever. It’s the army you’re a soldier that’s what you’re trained for. No matter if you’re also some type of job skill always be expecting to put your life on the line, that’s what the army is for. I see a lot of these videos and I think that’s where they’re coming from. Don’t join the army. This don’t join the army that there’s literally enough people out there that think they can join and get away without not having to fight like putting in some type of position where they are safe” it’s the army I mean simply put what else do you expect if you don’t want to do anything related, to a hard lifestyle combat then literally don’t join

      I’m a retired U.S. Army Infantry NCO who served 23 years (1986-2010) and deployed to combat zones multiple times. In most cases MP’s are assigned at or above brigade level. They are most commonly used in garrison (on forts or large forward operating bases) to provide law enforcement. There is no need to assign MP’s to combat arms units below brigade level.

      Hey bro. So like are you in high school? If so, and if you are on track to graduate in high school you should be fine to join the army at meps. There won't be any disqualifications for eligibility, unless you don't qualify with the asvab test, by scoring really low, and the medical test. And even then if you score super low on the test there is a program to help that out.

    My worst injuries when I was activity duty cook were minor cuts, nothing major, and a tiny 3rd burn was no bigger than a penny. I did get my apron caught on fire once. So I stopped, looked around, and realized there wasn't enough space to roll around, so I patted my apron out. In the army, especially in the garrison, we take safety seriously. There're many rules we follow that prevent a lot of accents, so in my experience, I agree with the statement. On the civilian side, as a cook, we need to take safety more seriously. My worst injury as a Hospital cook was a 2nd-degree boiling water burn that when down my whole arm. We steamed a big container of pasta in a steamer. There was a bunch of boiling water in the container. As I was pulling it out and complete now, after the pasta had exponent, I spilled a whole bunch of boiling water on my arm. And even putting my arm under cold water, my arm would not cool down. I could feel the heat coming out of my arms like it was cooking; even wrapping a cold, wet towel around my arm, the heat wouldn't stop. It starts out as one giant sunburn. But after 3 hours, my whole arm was covered by one giant blister, and then at that point is when I went to the other side of the hospital to e.r. to get checked, to return back to what I said about the army taking safety sensors, we would never cook pasta because we probably have got some that.

      I was a military cook and a civilian. The military drill into you safety from being aware of what's going on around you to how you carry a knife when walking. The worst injury I ever saw was a guy slipped coming around a corner and stuck his hand out to catch himself. Unfortunately he stuck it right into a deep fryer. That was in a restaurant.

  • @roberthunter6927
    @roberthunter6927 9 дней назад

    This is totally the wrong mind-set to have if you want to join the military. First, in most major wars since the beginning of time soldiers AND CIVILIANS die and are maimed by war. This includes ALL soldiers. If you are a clerk, drive a truck or cook beans, you still need to know how to fight. No soldier ever said:- "Hey, those soldiers are just cooking beans and filling in forms, let's not shoot at them chaps".
    In fact, almost always, you go after the enemy's C3I. Translation: signalers, HQ people, logistics, stores, mechanics. Every MOS you can think of.
    So if you are thinking:- "Hey I just want the government to make me a good cook or mortician, you have the wrong attitude". Wrong for the nation, and wrong for you as an individual, because chances are, if you just think that you are basically a civilian doing a job, you could get killed before you even realize it. There is nothing wrong with eying a MOS that will make your post-military career more effective, but if that is ALL you are in for, you are just being a waste of space.

      Get real, man. Cops AREN’T INFANTRY and they DON’T go on combat missions. Cops drive around bases handing out speeding tickets.
      In all my deployments I’ve NEVER ONCE seen any MP doing and work outside the wire. They won’t because there’s no reason for them to be outside the wire. MP’s are going to be in the rear with the gear handing out speeding tickets. There’s nothing dangerous about that.
