This is an extremely underrated comment😂
🤣 lmao
What about the dew bottle caps
To reinforce what was said in the video:
1: Volunteer for EVERYTHING!!! Be motivated and first to volunteer, ESPECIALLY if it's a lousy detail. After a short while, they will tell you no and pick others and you'll find you end up doing less details than everyone else.
2: PT your ass off!
3: G.I. your shit! Keep your barracks and yourself squared away. Don't wait for someone else, i.e. CQ, AR15's, Profile Rangers, to clean up the AO.
4: PT your ass off!
5: Ask questions and apply what you learn! Your Team Leader and Squad Leader are wellsprings of knowledge, or at least they should be. Ask them to teach you and apply what they teach to your life.
6: PT your ass off!
7: Be fanatical about esprit de corps. Your unit comes first, your unit is your family. Mom is the CO and Dad is the 1SG. Always make your parents proud, especially Dad!
8: PT your ass off!
9: LDRSHIP! Learn it, live it!
10: PT your ass off!
11: If there is a class or school slot available find out how you can earn it and go get it!
12: PT your ass off!
13: Don't bitch! If you HAVE to bitch, do it behind closed doors and ONLY to the person directly over you. Obviously there are exceptions, but if I have to spell it out then perhaps the military is not for you.
14: PT your ass off!
15: Keep yourself gainfully employed! Don't wait around for someone to give you a task. Find one and do it. The soldiers who generally get tasked to work late or do bs details are the one's who are standing/sitting around doing nothing.
16: PT your ass off!
17: No one gives a damn that you're in the military! Don't be the douchebag who goes off post with his dogtags outside his shirt. Most of the people in an Army town are in the military, prior service or hate the military. You're not impressing anyone with your Hollywood attitude and you'll most likely get your ass kicked and make your unit look bad. (See #7)
18: PT stands for Play Time! It's on you whether physical training is a punishment or an opportunity. Play Time your ass off!
Great and helpful video, battle!
Hooah!
I think this comment was more helpful than the video. Lol!
Thanks so much!
This comment help me alot. I'm about to enlist in the army
Put this somewhere, where it matters
this is pretty good
Is this glitch patched?
Yes they patched it weeks aho
Just stack 100% XP boosts.
🤣
Joined the Georgia Army National Guard when I was 17 in March 2016 as an E-1. It's now June 2017, and I'm an E-4.
ModdedHands what is like in the Army National Guard and tell me about your experience in the Army National Guard ??
ModdedHands how did that happen
ModdedHands impossible! You need 18 months minimum TIS
You might want to check with your Admin or RNCO. If you were erroneously promoted, and receive pay for the erroneous rank, you will have to pay that money back when they discover the error. March 2016 - June 2017 = 15 months Time in service (TIS) which even with a waiver, would leave you short by 3 months. Reg citation below.
AR 600-8-19 • 25 April 2017
Processing Enlisted Promotions to Private E-2, Private First Class, and Specialist
Eligibility criteria for automatic (RA and USAR) or immediate (ARNG) promotion to PV2, PFC, and SPC will be as follows:
(1) Promotion to PV2 is 6 months TIS.
(2) Promotion to PFC is 12 months TIS and 4 months TIG.
(3) Promotion to SPC is 24 months TIS and 6 months TIG.
Waivers for TIS and TIG:
(a) Promotion to PV2 may be waived at 4 months TIS.
(b) Promotions to PFC may be waived at 6 months TIS and 2 months TIG.
(c) Promotions to SPC may be waived at 18 months TIS and 3 months TIG.
Calvin if he has a degree he wouldn't join as E-1 but E-3 instead
Wish I had someone like you to give insight and advice before my basic at Ft Jackson 36 years ago! You're doing a good thing, young man - from a former Finance soldier.
Wow, thanks. That means a lot!
Yes I wish I had your advice 25 year's ago Ft.Sill
I leave for fort sill in 2 weeks and your channel has helped me alot to know what to expect thanks..
Thanks and good luck!
How was it?
If only it was a 2 second video of him yelling "RUN FAST"
Leadership skills < running fast
How long does it take to get to Master Prestige 1000?
More time than I care to think about. lol
@@MattWard89 Is there a particular time of year to go to BCT?Obviously I wouldn't go in July August but what do you think?
This information is invaluable. Thank you
The biggest no one will admit to is favoritism, if your team leader, squad leader and platoon sgt likes you, they will try to help you get classes or recommend you to the 1SG and CO...Classes are not that easy to request, it depends on how much your Unit has for that fiscal year
Some folks make rank really fast in the Army. When I was a 1st LT, my platoon sergeant, an E6, was younger than me. He’d gone from E1 to E6 in the MPs in 4 or 5 years. I’d worked on a couple of degrees so I was 24 at the time. It was a bit odd having him ask me things that I’d normally be asking my platoon sergeant, but it worked out.
So MP move up pretty fast it seems
I head to fort benning in the middle of February. Thanks for all your advice brother
Find an MOS that is in very much in demand with a very high ASVAB requirement.
You will make rank much faster than other MOSs. Once you are promoted to the senior grades, hold your tongue while dealing with those whom are not so well educated as you.
Your videos are the best and most informative
Thanks!
I enjoyed your video :) Keep it up!
Thanks! and I'll do my best
My recruiter said since I have an associate's I can enter basic as E3 and after I get E4.
Nice new intro!! Leaving tomorrow at 0500 for Benning...thank you so much for helping me prepare for it.
Thanks! Figured I needed to add a little something to the video haha.
You're welcome man. I really am happy that these are helping you guys out.
XstatiK32 how has benning been? I ship on the 30th to benning
vlad portal crazy so far, you 19D or what?
XstatiK32 I got 25S. Satélite operator and maintainer. I ship on the 30th. If u see "portal" lmk that's me!
I got my sergeant stripes in 3.5 years. Being in the 82nd Airborne, you gain rank pretty quick because of terminations from Airborne status
Firsbt Lastbb hoahhhh!!
I worked at battalion headquarters and drove officers all the way to LTC. I ranked up pretty fast, I say. Some dudes in the company level were surprised that I was an SPC before them.
Hey Shootemup 89, I really enjoy your videos and they are really helpful ! What do you think about the new uniforms and basic training food ???
OCPs are wayyy better than my crappy ACUs.
The food is pretty good. It just depends on how hungry you are lol. MRE's are just MREs... lol Some good some bad.
For the most part, I agree with everything that Matt is saying here, but I just want to clarify a few things. I was a personnel sergeant, so enlisted promotions was a big part of my job.
Junior enlisted promotions are done at the Company level. Promotions E1 through E4 are automatic promotions as long as you meet the time in grade and time in service requirements. However, if a Soldier is flagged on the effective date of promotion, this essentially blocks the automatic promotion. Once the flagged is lifted, this will require a personnel action to get the Soldier to the new grade.
What Matt is talking about in the video is called promotions with a waiver, which means accelerated promotions. But, something that Matt does not address is that these are capped at the Company level, so every Company will have only very limited number of waivers that they can award. Therefore, many times volunteering and sucking up to your NCOs won’t make much of a difference.
Hey Matt, hope all is well. In your family day vlogs for Tim’s graduation, I saw you had the rank of second lieutenant and in this video here you talk about being a specialist how did you go from NCO ranks to an Officer rank? Sorry if I’m late. I’m a newer subscriber and just following up on your vids.
What perks do you use
Sleight of Hand Pro
In the Infantry it's simple. It's all a number game, and how you do it; battle tactics.
Pro-tip: Dont say rank up unless you wanna get smoked. The term is promotion. Its not Call of Duty, anymore
Lol, why not? I'm tickled by the idea of snuffy asking his Drill about ranking up.
National guard you can get promoted for recommending someone and as long as they enlist you will be promoted. Also for stripes for skills test you can get promoted.
Essentially you can come in as an E-1 and do both before you ship and go to basic training as an E-3.
So I will be joining the military as an E2 and I will be trying to get promoted to E3 in basic thx man👨
I just joined the Marine Corps Reserves at 20. When I leave for boot camp August 2018, I'll be 21, with an Associates Degree. I've told my recruiter that my goal is to score a 300 on my first PFT, so hopefully I'll be on the radar for early promotion.
Thank you thank you so much!!! This video was absolutely exceptional and clear.
Hey! Are you joining the army as well?
Sophia fl are joining? What’s your MOs?
@@codefitness im on the process , trying to choose between 92y or 68 series
Sophia fl you’re going to love it
i hope so ;) whats your MOS?
I started as an E-1 in Basic. Made E-5 at 12 months, and E-6 at 36 months. It's doable, but it also helps to have great evals and test scores. Also, learn to avoid using the word "basically" in every sentence.
Haha thanks. Yeah this is a few months old, getting better every day
That is awesome. Any words of advise? Been working hard for just about 2 years. Just picked up my E-4. What would be the best way to reach E-5 fast?
Lol I'd like to know how these exceptions happen since TIS is at least 18 months
That’s bullshit
that's bs because even with waivers that can't happen
great video
Tiraye Thanks!!
I got promoted in basic to PFC! But good video!
Natinal guardsmen here. Came in as an E4 because I had a bachelors degree. Stayed enlisted because I'm an idiot. Didnt get E5 til 5 and half years in because I kept putting off going to BLC to focus on my civilan career. Went to a modified BLC course (because of covid) on the tail end of my first deployment. Really wish I had been E5 for the duration of deployment. It would have made me a lot more money.
what are some things you can do to ensure that you will begin basic training as a PFC?
Does supply (92y) get promoted fast? For Active Duty. Also can 2 sgts with the same supply job be supply in the same company?
Hi, i enlisted last month and there is 51 weeks between my enlistment day and shipping day. Is there a way i can still get promoted quicker?
I leave in August for basic 31 bravo going in as a specialist. What tips to get promoted to E-5 in less then 3 years would you say its possible?
if you have a lease do you just have to trust they youll get bah , since they dont put it in the contract for AIT/BCT ?
Thanks to my college credits, I start as an e2 😀
Nice!
How many credits?
Leonardo Chavez How many credits?
Your recruiter played you... you should come in as a spc with college credits
Alex Maravilla With 48 credits you go in as an E-2 if you have 60 or more you come in as a PFC
If I were to go into the army as an E-2 as a sophomore in college, would I be able to be an E-4 when I graduate college?
What if u done jrotc for 3 years in high school can rank to E-2 or that works?
Leaving fort fort Leonard wood in a few days lol nervous as hell
Addison G same
Can you make a video about AIT at Ft Benning, I know it's OSUT but I would like to know about the second half
Azra I don't know much about that really. I just know that apparently after BCT you go back to the same barracks and it's like basic as far as having the same Drill Seargants. You get a different hair cut and much more privileges but that's really all I know. I went to Fort Gordon for AIT after Benning.
Is basic training different for an 11 Bravo or is basic training pretty much the same for everyone? I ask because you went to Ft Benning. Thanks for the videos!
They separate the 11B from every other MOS within the first hour or so of Reception and they put you in a different company. 11B does OSUT so they couldn't be in the same company as other MOS' anyways. Aside from that everything is basically the same. I still had drill sgts who were infantry that even just came back from a deployment. It's more like Benning as a whole is different from any other BCT location.
Thanks for the reply and always being informative. Really appreciate it!
What's your opinion of the Corporal Rank (Army)?
I am about to start gcse s what gcse s do i need for a medic officer?
As a parent what can I do for my son? When can he receive care packages and what all can you put in it? He left April 24th for Fort Benning!
If you havn't received a letter from him yet then wait until then(I assume you have though). You can send him stuff after that. Also, you can't send candy/food of any kind. No books/magazines or other reading material besides a Bible. You can send him pictures but for us we were not allowed to get a lot of pictures, so only send like 5ish at a time so that he doesn't get them taken away. If he doesn't have a watch, I would send him one. My parent's sent me a watch at basic after I asked for one in the first letter. Just a cheap $10 one will be fine. Other than that I would just send him a letter asking him if he needs anything. Keep in mind, anything you send that is not allowed will most likely be thrown away! Hope this helps, good luck to him! Benning is tough but it makes the best soldiers :)
could you make a video on how ROTC is like. I'm leaving for basic on June 5th to fort Benning then fort Sam for AIT and I want to get a 3 year Minuteman scholarship for college and I want to know what it's like. thanks
For sure, I was planning on doing an ROTC related video this week
I love the whole program of getting E-2 by selling out your buddy to join. Do they still have that?
Apparently it’s been six years since It’s been nine years since I graduated from high school and I use to be in the Army JROTC, but my former SAI said he can write a memo to my recruiter that proves I was in the JROTC back then but regardless does that mean I still would only get promoted to E-2 instead of E-3
What do you think of bit coin? as and investment, when you enlisted I'm sure you get a nice package. As an unmarried soldier with no kids is it smart to put some of your pay into bit coin?
What if you're prior service PFC ?
Can you also talk about how easy or hard it would be change your mos
I don't have much experience with this. So idk if I could do a full video on it. But it kinda varies depending on your unit needs and if your unit needs the mos that you want to switch too. But I wouldn't go in thinking you will switch because it may turn out to be harder than expected.
When was the Last battle field promotion ???
Took me 5 years to become an E-4 in Marines. E-1-E-3 was cake walk. Then it gets hard. How does your branch determine if you become a specialist or corporal?
Corporal is something that you generally only see on deployments and it'll just be by needs of your unit. It's prettyyy rare to actually have a corporal in the army.
5 years to get E4? Jesus H Christ
Why do the points for promotion increase?? Example..88m was 40 now it is approx 700.
So what is exactly are the boards? Jw... define
Can you transfer rank from NG/reserves to active duty?
yes but goodluck with the paperwork and the unit releasing you.
Are there ways to get platoed? Or passed up for a promotion. It would be shitty to spend your hole career as a private.
Are there any exceptions to the E3 to E4 rule if you're prior service? Thanks.
In basic/AIT?
Currently in a community college and have 78 credits I finished my associates but have been taking classes to transfer to university. Would I be promoted to E-3 after boot camp? I want to enlist sometime soon was watching some of your videos to get more of an idea on a few questions I had
You would enlist as an E-3. I believe over 60 credits is the cut off for that.
So i guess I'm entering & staying E3 for a while lol.
Hi Matt, can you explain the difference between specialist and Corporal? Seeing different stuff everywhere I read... thanks!
Basically..... Corporal happens when they need somebody to be a SGT but can’t promote somebody for whatever reason so they “promote” (not really a promotion) a specialist to corporal which is the losers NCO rank. Just so that the former SPC can command a small team that doesn’t have an NCOIC (IC is in charge)
Can you do some videos on meps and ways you can get deferred?
Travon Guy yeah that's right. Just go in there and talk as little as possible and don't bring any attention to anything.
How can you get promoted before Basic?
Associates or higher degree
How did you rank up to PFC before basic? (Sorry I’m late I’m bingeing all of your vids haha)
Probably college
Hey Shootemup 89, I took my asvab yesterday and make a 51 on it.... it's not the highest but my recruiter said that I'll be able to get a 91 bravo and that's what I wanna get. But my MEPS is next week. And thanks for the feedback, I like OCPS way better to.
Yeah, that should be fine man. You can look up yourself the exact scores you need for each MOS and not just the ASVAB. Look at the individual subject requirements. And to your other question OCP is Operational Camouflage Pattern. Eventually we will just refer to it as the new ACU pattern once it is fully phased in.
Thank you sir ! I really enjoy your videos and they help out a lot
Dorian Gregory is 91 bravo mechanic right ?
It’s ALC for SSG
Didn’t realize the Army was like Call of duty... I think I should join now so I can rank up fast! Do you get kill streaks too?
Unless something changed you go to PLDC for Sgt THEN BNOC FOR SSGT and ANOC for Sfc
It's changed. lol BLC for SGT then WLC for SSG
what kind of things do they ask you during these boards/interviews?
All kinds of questions about anything and everything
Sergeant is BLC
Staff sergeant is ALC
ive got a question I'm in university right now, what rank would I start in the army?
+EDGE SIEGE Either E-2 or E-3 depending on how many credits you have. How many college credits do you have? Basically if you have 2 years you come in as E-3. 1 year is E-2
Shootemup89 ok so I'll be E-3 then
If you have two years jrotc and you do early enlistment you'll automatically be an E2
If you’re at the bottom of the totem pole, you’re actually the most significant/important person of that pole...
When you said "do something special" what did you mean?
get a killstreak of 25 then get the tactical nuke
+Saltypeenutz1 wow
Happy ending
“I walked into his office fully prepared to suck his dick”
ohh and what does OCPS mean ??
shootemup89 post a video how to become from enlisted to officer rank. going to bct at fort Leonard Wood in 22nd this month
It's definitely going to come up soon, I've had that video idea on the back-burner for a few weeks now.
looking forward to that.
how long is a typical smoking? and what are all the things they make you do?
If I had to guess I would say around 15-30 minutes. And it just depends because each drill sgt tend to have their own "favorite" exercise. But just some common ones would be pushups, v-up, prone row, cherry pickers, hold your gun out in front of you, front leaning rest, 8 count pushup, etc... So, it varies but it's usually not fun lol
But they could last for hours if you REALLY screw up.
How where you able to start off basic being a PFC?
Gabe Roberson probably had college credits already
4 years of jrotc
If you enlist with a master's degree, what rank will you have?
It appears that Army does not allow first time enlistments to exceed the rank of E-4 with exception of officers. E-4 is earned by entering with a bachelor’s.
Got any hacks for free cod points and supply drops??
Just play lots of hardpoint, always to for objective, u can get like 2 ranks per match on a good day
I'm joining the reserves and my recruiter told me most likely I won't get the MOS I want. Did you get the MOS you wanted? I want to join as a 31 bravo but no recruiter just crushed my dreams of getting that MOS. Also at AIT can you certified in whatever your MOS is?
Yeah, my recruiter told me it is really unlikely that I will get the MOS I wanted 25B. I did get it though. I just came back later that week to check the list again. The problem with the reserves is the only MOS' available will be based on the units near where you live. So if you want to be 31B then there may not be any 31B slots around you. But I would maybe just check back later. That's what I did because I didn't want to join unless I got that job.
good looking out and thanks for responding back. do you know how soon you can start going to college after you enlist in the reserves?
Yeah, right away. I graduated from AIT Dec 16th and started back college that Spring semester. Which was about 3 weeks later. You just have to make sure you enroll and sign up for college classes at AIT so that you are good to go when the next semester comes around.
We even had a few people take just like 1 online college class while they were at AIT. Since my AIT was long, so it lasted the whole semester.
Shootemup89 ohhhhhh okay thanks alot cause I was confused about the whole school process. Was there anything as far as school that you had to pay for? I'm sorry if I'm bombarding you with questions
Any one joining the army in ny bronx hit me up if you are too and not shiping out before the 11 of November I'm trying to get in an e2
People trying to rank up me trying to get out !!
Thanks for your info. and videos, I've quick question- i just got in as E-4 to start because I have N.D.(Naturopathic Doctor) equivalent education from India, i can't go for officer program because I'm not U.S. citizen yet,But my recruiter said that once I finish my AIT (I will get my U.S. citizenship on my BCT graduation) I can ask my commander to put my officer's packet once I'm done with my AIT.. So is that true or he's just giving me false hope?
I honestly couldn't say for sure. I will say that even if that happens and you get a packet submitted you aren't guaranteed a spot like you would be if you got it on your contract. Eventually you should be able to go if you really want to but I wouldn't get your hopes up with it being RIGHT after AIT.
Shootemup89 thank you.. I appreciate your reply!
Whats you're MOS?
It was 25B which was IT Specialist. Now it's going to be 25A Signal Officer
Do JROTC. 3 years gives you E2.4 years gives you E3. For the Army, that is.
Angel Noose in high school ?
Yes, JROTC is High School level.
Angel Noose I looked up in google it says 2 years gives you E2 is that true ? & 3-4 gives you E3
I only know what my SAI told me. Then again he's been doing this for a really long time. Regulation could have changed, for more exact info, try to talk to the JROTC teachers or call your local recruiter.
2 years of jrotc gives you your certificate of training which means you enlist as E2 and 3 years gives you the certificate of completion but I don't know if that starts you off at E3 if you're not from ajrotc.
Say I go in the army and get a rank. Then I leave. Then I come back do I still have that rank.
That depend's how long you were out I was out for about a year and half and retained my e-4 sham shield
How do you go from PVI to LTC?
+Larry Pryor spend at least 20 years in the Army. Lol
I did, and was a CGSC Resident Graduate; and Regular Army joined at 18, did a three year enlistment; did college quickly on GI bill, and was a Field Artillery Officer; retired at 42, get $6K a month clear and full medial benefits. Hah, Hah
Is it possible to go from E-1 to E-3 in basic?
you'll go to e2...
you need 48+ college credits to become an e3
Why is it that some people stay at E3 for six years??? How do they pull that off? Why
We had an E4 that was like 300+ pounds. I didn't know the whole situation, but I'm pretty sure that exceeds the weight limit...and it couldn't have happened overnight.
Whats the max rank you could get?
Satan
6 star general
What are ways to get promoted so you wont come in as an E-1?
Got that one on my list. It will come soon enough but good question. In the mean time, Google is available. There are a lot of ways that I just couldn't explain in a comment.
easiest way IMO is to get someone to enlist as in refer someone and youll go into basic as an E2
Have enough college credits and you enlist at E2, get a friend enlisted on buddy system and get promoted to E3, PFC
Let me be specific, referring a friend and him/her enlisting as well gets you promoted and pay grade/rank, not specifically to E3. College credits, referring a friend and JROTC are the ways I know of to enlist at E2
College Credits.
You got to get demoted to get promoted.
What is a pfc
Mark Murillo Private First-Class
