Speaking as someone who enlisted from outside of a coastal area, I was aware that the Navy went on big boats in the middle of the ocean, but had no idea what they actually did or the breadth of opportunities offered. Ships were just a nebulous concept to me. Personally I wish we focused more advertising on exploring how the Navy can pretty much directly translate to good civilian careers. Seems kind of baffling that we’re the branch with probably the highest percentage of jobs that have a close civilian equivalent, often offering middle class or higher wages, and we don’t brag about that on social media to the dude that’s stuck working as a landscaper or in a kitchen. Also you should check out the 1970s SNL parody of Navy ads. Showed the exciting life of painting, cleaning the head, and low pay.
I remember seeing these ads as a kid. They did make an impression. I have enjoyed the latest "Forged by the Sea" ones. Thanks for your videos, having a family member in the Navy, its great insight.
I think I was set on the Navy sense I watched Top Gun as a kid. One really motivational video I do remember that was shown at the end of battle stations when I went through boot camp was: Operation Enduring Freedom - The Opening Chapter if you ever see that one here on RUclips. Great video Chief!
I don’t remember many of the commercials as a kid, but the one that immediately comes to mind that made me want to be a Marine was the chess one. I loved that. That and always seeing them with Sabres & dress blues, I thought they were the most well dressed bad asses on earth. I ultimately went into the Air Force because the recruiter wasn’t blowing up my phone damn near every day. That along with a lot of family members & friends saying it’s great opportunity(which it was).
yes and no. you would go back to great lakes, but you would go through a refresher course of sorts if deemed necessary. The program is called NAVET/OSVET (navy veteran, other service veteran)
I'm thinking you all need to change your name to....... PBJ & bread man. why don't you all cover classic tones? imho buyers originally buy a pedal because their attempting to emulate a vintage sound & from there it ( the pedal)takes on a life of its own at time goes by but nobody can judge this from your channel because you don't cover classic vintage. or maybe you guy don't know how to dial in vintage tones?? no telling.

Good Find RDC , love the history of recruiting adverts and interesting to see how they've changed. Loved those 80s ones.
