@Brianna Taylor Back when I served they only lived on ships during deployment's when the LHA or LST was at sea. Navy folks really don't like Marines on their ships. We bought all their Pogey bait in the ship store, we eat all the food in the mess hall and we were always in their gym working out. Oh and we contributed nothing, other than the occasional walking the flight line or well deck.
I originally was going to go into the Marines Amphibious Assault back in 1992 when joining the military. I then discovered SEAL and Ranger contracts prior to signing. I ended up in the Ranger Regiment. This video brings back memories about what I researched about Amphibious Assault back then.
One of the best units I have ever had the pleasure to serve with. I thoroughly enjoyed having an influence on the young Marines. I will always remember the struggles we went through as the school house was being built with minimal space.
I was actually in unit when they first came in, which was around April 2017. They brought one crewman and one mechanic both female. The female crewman fucked everyone in the barracks 😂
@Woes Oro For me it was 'Open Arms' when joining the Corps and then finding out I had been assigned to be a 'Tracker' when done at MCT. Nothing special really to qual...and like most MOS's in the Corps just stay fit and absorb the training.
My grandson is heading to San Diego for amphibious training. He is so proud to be a Marine. He’s 18 years old. Very tall and very bright. I know he will be great. God Bless y’all for all you do for our country. Rob just graduated from boot camp. Please take good care of him. Love Grandma Linda
That is one of the most definitive symbols of The United States Marine Corps, besides the 0311Grunt, the MARSOC Raider and the Force Reconnaissance Marine. Semper Fi!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽🦅⚔️
Some day I'm going to build my own amphibious vehicle. Probably based on an old truck chassis. Nothing like this of course, but something for the family to enjoy.
Other than the United States Marine Corps General Dynamics M-1A1HC Abrams Main Battle Tanks and M-1150 Assault Breacher Vehicles, the Amphibious Assault Vehicle P7-A1s, R7-A1s, and C7-A1s are my favorite vehicles in the USMC. I hope they keep these and give them the SUP kits to keep them going. I like the new ACVs but they shouldn't replace the AAVs with them!
I’m currently in the enlistment process and am yet to go to meps but I would love for this to be my MOS. But can some one tell me the difference between MOS 1833 and 1834??? TIA
Amphibious school thats cool for USMC. I dont know how its setup in USMC but I would put all this with infantry in USMC. Are all the guys infantry too that are drivers? I was relating this to mechanized infantry in US Army. Mortars, M2 Bradley (mechanized) drivers/gunners are all infantry. Is it not like this in USMC as infantry in the amphibious units?
HOPW MANY HORSE POWER THATA BAD BOY HAS BACK IN 1995 I WAS JOINING THE CORPS. I SCORED A 50 ON THE ASVAB THEY MADE A COOK I WAS STATIONED AT 31 AREA WFTBN. EDSON RANGE RIGHT THERE IN PENDLTON I WAS THER 1995 THREW 99 I GOT OU AND JOINED THE ARMY I BECAME A 19KILO M1A1 ABRAMS TANK CREWMAN I DID 15 YEARS TOTAL 3 IRAQ TOURS
new recruit just wondering if anyone could tell me about life as aav when not deployed i also am wondering since the video says we learn about infantry immigration if that means we also learn to fight with the infantry on foot? i can imagine in a fight when shit gets too rough when carrying infantry to an objective that at some point your gonna have to hop off the aav ( example rpgs firing) just wanna have some clarification on that
@@jonahwhinery8729 no I'm not I leave for basic in January so I'm just gathering info on the moses in combat support and this is one I really am interested in
You will spend days on the ramp sleeping in the plentums Or sitting on the jump seat with the ramp down shooting the shit. It's boring. Until you deploy. Good luck
Erin Freund my lieutenant spent most of his time in the comm track coordinating and what not. As an officer you will shoot and drive an Amtrack, but most of the time you'll be over at battalion headquarters doing logistics. Wasn't an officer, but that's what I saw most officers doing.
Johnny Dunn heh my lieutenant sometimes drove out of the blue. Not on field op, but whenever we did maintenance runs. Must have been terrifying for the crew.
Ah yes... Del Mar. Been there, done that. 2142 (Old Corps MOS - Tracked Vehicle Repairman). BCo Maint, 2d Aslt Phib Bn, 2d MarDiv 1980-84. Went to Beirut with BLT 1/8, 24th MAU in 1983. YATYAS!
If local law enforcement is exhausted there can be No Question on Martial Law and Policies of Peace Keeping and Public Safety. We're not Political Organization. We are Cells.
These new P-7's; sure beat the old P-5 amphibious tractor, slow, with a big box shape, and 400 gallons of 80 octane gasoline in the belly; real death trap.
The AAV can barely float. It lacks the firepower of a 30mm cannon. Any improvements to survivability detract from mobility and firepower by reducing the amount of rounds carried, etc. The Soviet era BMP-2 is a better vehicle all around, has more firepower, and it still floats!
The AAV diffently needs upgrading...and moving to a wheeled 'modern' varient (which is happening but with very limited numbers) is promising but its ass (old AAV) won't explode like the BMP did that carries its fuel on the back hatch, though I imagine the newer versions must've corrected that by now. Crew exhaustion is also a serious factor with armour...something the Russians are notorious for. As you know, 'Tracks' desperately require armour/air support to survive. Whenever we attempted to operate in training against LAV's we 'died' to the vehicle, total massacre every time when standing alone as a unit or dispersed. A moral crusher to say the least.
YATYAS! 1833 75-82 Courthouse Bay Camp Lejeune and Camp Schwab, Okinawa. If you can't hack it, track it! If you can't track it, truck it! If you can't truck it, fuck it! OOHRAH my gator brothers (and now, evidently, sisters)!
I have a love and hate relationship with AAV’s. We are in need of an upgrade really fucking bad. The amount of PMCS is insane and this shit keeps breaking down way too soon - 2141 Regardless great to see SSgt. Slayden become Gunny now. I always liked his motorcycles and his jokes.
Memories, I remember being around the beach club Oceanside CA in 2009 and having some boot 2141s drunkenly want to fight me because a woman told them to attack me. Ahhhh Marines. YAT YAS
amazed you know I'm getting to be a i mechanic in dream these drills Shane something you know what everybody else and you know it's going to be time with it you know you did on that on that line you know suggestion and you going to be on back-to-back you don't need to help me to be at lean hand for someone else and you know more people to come in and train or email or us to be substantial right
I am a disabled Marine. I was an 1833. My schools was in camp Pendleton. I was top of my class and for that I was able to pick my duty station. I chose koneoa bay Hawaii in 1980. At that time it was where the elite Marines were stationed. Every deployment was out of Hawaii for combat and West Pac over seas duty. As a tracker you had to be the best swimmer in the corps and the toughest, smartest and meanest. An amphibious assault crewmen is hardcore and we are trained to fight in the seas and on land. We are elite infantry trained to do anything in combat. I am shocked to see women in my Marine corps unit. What the hell have the left, communist, socialist, homosexual, transgender, misfits done to the Marine Corps. What the hell is leading the corps now? Self-serving fake marine dressed up like a women or just a coward who thinks his job is more important than the corps. I feel it's time to shut the Marine Corps down because you have destroyed it.
Paul Gerlack ... just one thing to point out about the Corp that makes it different from the other branches... when the word came down from the president and pentagon that all military has to start integrating women in almost all service roles the Marines were the only ones with the balls to push back and say “ok. A marine is a marine, doesn’t matter what is between its legs.” So ALL marines, men and women, have to meet the same physical, emotional and educational standards for whatever MOS they are going for. In the Marines there is no separate standard for women. If a woman wants an MOS she has to be there doing it all right next to all the guys. Like the woman in this video said, she had a real prob with the physical parts of the job and the instructors were on her night and day until she bulked up enough that she could handle the weight just as much as the guys. I really admire and respect the Marines for doing that. A Marine is a Marine. They all have to meet the same standard and perform at the same level.
Paul Gerlack I was a tracker in K-Bay and I hope to fucking god we weren't considered elite. Water driving could get sketchy but fun as hell! The rest of your post is crap.
As an 03 designation that spent many years in the back of an AAV cursing the crew members, thank you Marines for all you did and do.
@Brianna Taylor Back when I served they only lived on ships during deployment's when the LHA or LST was at sea. Navy folks really don't like Marines on their ships.

Did you regret your time in the Marines or no. Do you wish you chose a different mos field?
I was the corpman that responded to a AAV roll over at Camp Pendleton in 93. One lance corporal was crushed that day. Terrible to witness.
Ouch!
I wonder who was ground guiding that vehicle
Ouch!

Thinking your full of it.
We used to practice cobra gold together in Thailand. We love and miss you so much. United States Marine Corps.
One of the best units I have ever had the pleasure to serve with. I thoroughly enjoyed having an influence on the young Marines. I will always remember the struggles we went through as the school house was being built with minimal space.
I was 1833, graduates may of 1990. Kinda weird seeing a female at that school. No such thing in my day.
They rolled them in around 2014-2015
I was with Mike Meissen in that school !

This is the job I want in the marines
0311, from 99-03 Invasion in Iraq. These boys do amazing work. To most people they should be praised, even if we jokingly called them Uber.
Y’all should do one on artillery school. Show some shenanigans from Fort Sill

Is their ACV training yet?
Graduated AAV school in 97. Was with 3rd AABN, E co, MCM Plt. YAT YAS!
3 of those Marines were part of the 11TH MEU! AAV Marines are awesome.
Can someone tell me the difference between 1800 and 1833?
0300, 1800, 3500, etc. just means you were designated to that MOS and you need to complete school to earn that MOS, 0311, 1833, 3521, etc.
My second hitch I went to Delmar for trak school. That was '83.
Whatcha know about Apricots
I’m currently in the enlistment process and am yet to go to meps but I would love for this to be my MOS. But can some one tell me the difference between MOS 1833 and 1834??? TIA

it was 2141 when I was in. 2010-14
mike pindell they still exist
I remember it was 2141
I was a 2142 when I finished school in 1987. The MOS was changed a few years after that to 2141. I don’t remember why.
Sgt Kuppers!! WOOOO
I know AAV crew are attached (at least during my time) to the BLT on MEUs, but did AAV crews deploy to Afghanistan/Iraq?
