girl i’m telling rn this was the most helpful vid i’ve found so far everyone else is talking about packing hairspray 😭 literally felt like watching a vlog from a friend loved it sm
Thank you so much 🥲 I’m so glad I can help!
@@briannawood2124 you're so beautiful. ruclips.net/video/eZYJQEkySLY/видео.html
Vert proud of you for stepping to the plate and finding out what happen and correct the problem. That is so great. Wishing continued blessings in your new career in the US Navy. I had wanted to the join the US Navy back in the day but, I could not swim, even today too. From US Air Force Security Police Military Veteran. GOD bless America.
Hooyah and thank you for watching! Thank you for your service!
@@briannawood2124 i am happy and proud that you accepted the military as a career choice. We honor your military service too.
I am an old Navy vet from the '70s. I am coaching a lady right now that is 35 years old. She has entered DEP and waiting for a ship date. In your experience, how do they treat older recruits? This lady has been through a lot and needs a new start.
We actually had a lady in my division that was in her 30s! Top recruit in our whole training group! In my opinion, they don’t get treated much different, if any. In my division I felt like we were all treated just the same
Best of luck to you both, wish her the best through it!
Thanks for making this video. It looks like we were in the same training group. I got asmo’d to 436 from 400 and you looked kinda familiar. I got separated but it’s nice to hear about others experience
I was in Division 434, hope you are doing well!
great video!! Heading out to bootcamp in 10 days and all the other videos people are super vague talking about BS
Haha thanks for watching! Hoping that this shows all the sides of bootcamp!
For the people who can’t swim…do you still have to jump off the tower?
Yep :/ there are like trained navy divers to pull you out
been watching you since you were in DEP and I think we both went into boot camp around same time , it’s been an experience. 413…
It's definitely been an experience to say the least! 434!
why do they make you take multiple pee tests throughout?
Would you say beginning week 4-8, you are done with PT? Like do you still have to do push ups and runs during those weeks
You’ll PT everyday except Sundays until you get to your official PFA and pass
I leave early febuary and I know there is going to be snow. Did you deal with that and how was the gun range?
Unfortunately I don’t have much knowledge on the snow because I didn’t have to experience that. But the gun range was pretty scary for me, just take notes and do as you’re told. You don’t have to be an expert at shooting to pass bootcamp!
Thanks for sharing. I ship out next month. I will like to know If you had a 1.5 mile run PRT test? And what other PRT tests did you take?
Yes I did have the 1.5 mile run test! You have an initial pfa, which is pretty similar to your final one with push-ups, planks, and run, and then you’ll have an RDC Assessment Week 4 to make sure you can pass the official, then week 6-7 you’ll have your final pfa!
great video i ship off august 23rd you said um at least 100 times tho 😂
What are the leadership positions in bootcamp
I ship out in two weeks y’all wish me luck😭
What time do you have to finish the mile and a half run in bootcamp for females ?What happens if you don’t make that time? Do you have any tips to help prepare?
Depends on your age but the youngest category is a 14:45, if you don’t make it you get rolled back in bootcamp so you stay until you can or they kick you out. Only way to really get better at running is to run and controlling your breathing
I leave January 25 and I'm excited but extremely nervous !
Hooyah! Don’t be nervous, just do what you’re told and try to make the best of it!
Me too see u soon
I leave on the 26! Nervous but happy as well!
I leave on the 25th also. I’m nervous also
Me too! Maybe we'll see each other there!
hi ! I leave the 26th, prepping to go soon. what did you pack in your bag for bootcamp ?
Got a video uploaded on what I packed for bootcamp!
Are women still required to cut their hair short during boot camp ? Or are you able to keep long hair?
No you can keep your long hair! They offer haircuts if you want them, but as long as your hair goes up in a neat low bun it’s all good!
I leave out in August, any suggestions on what I should bring/not bring?
Honestly, I’d bring what you need for the hotel and maybe some stamps haha. They give you a LOT of stuff and they let you buy some stuff from the NEX. Definitely if you’re religious I’d recommend a small religious text.
My daughter starts prototype.she’s been there since 09/21. Go nukes!
I start next week! Go nukes!
Wait is A-school only hard depending on the job u pick? Im bad at school dawg
All the schools are challenging, just in different ways. A lot of staff are here that provide a lot of help, I struggled a little bit in the beginning but asking questions and not being afraid to ask for help is key
hey I don’t know if you’ll see this! It’s been a while since you posted this video. I just wanted to ask how much push ups you did going in and how many you were able to do leaving? I’m working hard on my push ups, I’ve never been good with them haha. Just wanted to see someone else’s improvements!
Going in I could only do about the baseline, which was maybe around 28ish. My final graduation PRT I was able to push almost 40 at bootcamp! It’s definitely achievable but have a good solid foundation going in, best of luck!
@@briannawood2124 that’s so good to hear about the improvement! were all your push ups 90 degree angle? or do they even care about the angle your arms are at?
I mean it’s good to practice with a 90 degree angle
hey!! loved how informative your video was! my sister is going into the nuke program, one question though.. how is the living arrangement? will she have he own room
It depends on if there are more females in her class, she’ll most likely be roomed with them! It’s a suite with two bunk beds in separate rooms that share a bathroom in between. Hope this helps!
@@briannawood2124 Hello, so my sister finally left for BC earlier this month. We do not know the actually graduation date yet because we have not received the form letter yet. Just wandering how many days after BC did you have to report to Charleston. We are trying to see if we will be able to spend time with her for the weekend or only the day of graduation.
@@elisedonald7534 from experience with my fiance in the army, after boot camp he was allowed 2 days with his family and friends then had a few days before he went to his job training, but we could not spend it with him. I'm assuming it's the same for the navy, and I'm not making any plans with family besides those 2 liberty days after boot camp (I'm going to be a nuke as well)
I only got that Friday with my parents and I flew out the next Saturday morning! Sometimes they send a bunch of nukes at once so there’s a chance she might be in hold, but a lot of us fly straight here. Unfortunately we don’t find that out until the day after battlestations
@@nicolem8970 Thank you for the information and congrats on your enlistment as a Nuke!!
Can you travel out of the country while being in the navy reserves?
Not sure tbh
Hi Brianna , my daughter will be graduating on Wednesday, I’m a little confused on how the transportation going to be ( for A school ).Do they provide the transportation to the airport or my daughter would have to look for that her own, sorry if I’m not explaining myself good
They will provide her with transportation to A School! It’ll be a flight, or by bus depending on where she is going but she should know by her last week to let you know!
@@briannawood2124 thank you 🙏
@@briannawood2124 oh I think she is going to Texas , but from base to airport would they provide transportation?
Yep
@@briannawood2124 thank you so much beautiful ❤️
What’s the possibility of getting separated from the navy due to swimming ?
You need to know how to swim. They’ll teach you but yeah you can be separated for not knowing how to
Ohk
I ship out literally next month and I’m so nervous about the swim test
If you can float in a swimming pool and not drown, you’ll pass 🤣
@@briannawood2124 🤣 I’m dead but thanks, how did y’all go about feminine hygiene(shaving and monthly)?
They give you a razor and you can shave every night if you had the time, but usually it was saved for holiday routine on Sunday mornings which was our “me” time
@@briannawood2124 thanks love goodluck on your new journey❤️
Thank you 💓 you too!
What age range did you see at boot camp? What % would you say over 21?
In my division we had like a handful of people over 21, I think somewhere around 10 at most that made it through, our division was small so it was about 1/4 of our division
Do you do the 1.5-mile run in addition to the pacer test for the pfa's
Not in addition to, pacer was for the first pfa and then we ran the 1.5 mile for the two prts after that
@Brianna Wood thank you for the quick rewponse. So just to confirm all I will do is the push up, the plank and the pacer laps from cone to cone after P Days. And then I do the 1.5 mile officially for the RDC test?
Yes
I leave on the 5th, is bootcamp the same for males? Or is there some differences?
I mean we all go through the exact same training, males just have different physical standards. You will actually probably have a sister division that you study and train with
did a lot of people not pass Bootcamp when you went in?
No? The only people that really didn’t pass were those either medically discharged or didn’t try hard enough in my opinion
i thought the initial pfa is only the run?
Nope, all three parts of the initial pfa you will do - push-ups, planks, and the run!
I have some questions. After you finished your boot camp, how did you get your things which were already packed for a school? How much weight could you bring, like just a carry-on baggage or even a checked baggage? Could you go to your a school by your own plan or with other sailors, like military plan? When could your family start to ship things to you, to your A school?
So a lot of this stuff depends on your A-school and what your rate is, and I can only speak for my rate 😂 but I had some small things packed in my backpack that I took to bootcamp and a small carry-on suitcase that my parents sent to my A-school in a box. We were allowed to get things shipped pretty much as soon as we were processed in so like a week.
@@briannawood2124 thank you. ❤️
@Robin Oo, FYI - most airlines allow military members on orders up to five bags of luggage. Some airlines allow 50-lbs per bag while other airlines allow up to 100-lbs per bag 👍
I was running a 76 in the pacer test in elementary school lmaoo bootcamp gonna be way to easy for me😂😂
It was pretty interesting
@@briannawood2124 yea i leave in June
What happened to your other glasses I liked them😂
Got military issued ones because they aren’t in regs
i ship out in march and am not happy that i'm in the 10 week one lol... i'm going into the nuke program and i just want to get boot camp over with
Definitely kind of a bummer to have to go through more bootcamp, but it’ll be over before you know it!
Hey Brianna! As of right now I am in DEP for the navy. I have signed a contract for nuc and I am suppose to leave March 15. I’m just curious as to how long it took for you to find out about your secret security clearance. It’s been like 2.5 months since I filled my paperwork out. It’s making me very anxious lmao
You’ll find out 100% once you get into A School! I was worried about mine so I understand. They’ll give you badges with your information on it, different color golds mean if you have your clearance. Can’t say too much but that’s my best way to explain. So counting when I started my paperwork to when I found out, was about 4ish months. Good luck FS!
What do you mean by beatin.
When you get in trouble, they make you do extra workouts as punishment
@@briannawood2124 ohh ok
great question cause my daughter want to enlist..i’m like wait a min they beat you🤭
I was going to ask to 😩
My daughter made it through she is gotten her orders
Hi my son just finish basic training bootcamp, what do you mean they beat you?
It’s intense workouts when you get in trouble, “beat” is the term they use but it’s just working out extra as punishment
@@briannawood2124 OK THANKS. SO HOW LONG IS NORMALLY A SCHOOL
Depends on his rate he chose at MEPS, but majority are around 2-4 months
@@briannawood2124 ok what exactly do u mean when u say rate?
Gm so how long can you actually stay in the navy?
We were in the same ship I think! Hooyah 908
I think my first roommate in A School was from your division haha, hooyah!
Were they still in your face yelling with Covid going on ?
Yes, it just was less scary because spit isn’t flying in your face because they have masks on 🤣
@@briannawood2124 😂😂😂
Shitty Drama filled Division, but great RDC's..fucking same.
Just graduated and waiting to be shipped to Charlston. Can't wait to leave Great Lakes..not that NNPTC will be any better.
Great overview.
NNPTC was alright haha, just reported to prototype, it’s been so much better
You look very fit and intelligent. what is your m.o.s? oh wait never mind you said you are a electricians mate nuclear . Very cool
