Bootcamp was the longest thing and the shortest thing I’ve ever done. Btw the hardest thing about bootcamp is by far taking care of all the man children in your division.
Absolutely, your experience in boot camp is not determined by your RDCs. It's dictated by your fellow recruits. All three of your RDCs want you to transform from a civilian/recruit into a sailor. Unfortunately, there are those "recruits" who are un-sat and make the experience of boot camp 20 times more difficult than it should be. At least, that was my experience at Navy Boot Camp from July 21st to September 30th 2022, in Ship 13 (Marvin Shield) Division 334.
@@kaseywoody4951Hey pal, Marvin Shield’s alumni here, Division 437, Sept 29th 2022-Dec 9th 2022. Other Recruits will definitely be the thorn in a lot of sides
Just got word this morning my grandson-in-law is enlisting in the U.S. Navy. As an old U.S. Air Force F-100 & F-111 crew chief (68-72), I am very proud of him. We are living in very dangerous times.
I graduated bootcamp 09DEC22 and it definitely changed my life. I always knew I wanted to join the Military but the Navy is something I enjoy a lot. Its a blessing to be here and to conquer a Career. I was RCPO for my Division which was a challenge. With leading 96 recruits (45% Female) I can surely say that this video sums up of the current training. I encourage all to take place in this journey. We appreciate all the support and love given our way. Hooyah!! ⚓️🚀
You haven't experienced the fleet yet, so I'd hold off on saying it's the best decision you've made until you're closing your contract and are considering whether to re-up or not.
I graduated earlier this year on SEP 16, 2022, it was by far the most life-changing experience Ive had in my 20 years of life. It was one hellawuh mental challenge-the nuisance of immature teens, nonstop sickness, various tests, marching, swimming, fire-fighting, marksmenship, etc. Its all one big bundle package of character development! While inside, I absolutely hated it, but once after graduating bootcamp and having a grace period to come back to a normal human being, I understood it all. Its a process and one worth having. Too many quit within the first few weeks, dont be one of them, make it through onto greatness, I PROMISE it gets better! Its TRULY APPRECIATED in our COUNTRY!
What a year! Graduated boot on 13MAY22 Div 175. Went to A school then field medical training- now I’m working as a green side Doc. Followed through with what you want to accomplish. My RDC’s were the best things that happened to me- I could still here my Senior Chief now!
i’m interested in your background and working as a green side doc! what’s A school and how long does field medical training take? also how did you get into green side?
@@timothyphouthavong A school for me was relatively easy- due to my prior EMS background. However that doesn’t mean that the program isn’t challenging and expectations are high.

Definitely recommend that you work on your running and getting used to having about 30-50 pounds of weight on your back. But aside from the physical, the academic side of it is a big portion of the school. You learn a lot and make friends.

Galley Week during my Navy boot camp was the toughest time I ever experience in my life. I went to OCS within a few months and it was a harder, but easier, compared to boot camp. The quality of people you went through with made the difference.
Boot camp was honestly one of the dumbest things I've ever gone through. The biggest challenge is staying awake while you're in your 7th sexual assault awareness class.
@@dwrussell96 Yeah. “no recruit to recruit contact” my RDCs didn’t care at all bro, they would always see us do some hand shakes and wouldn’t give 2 fucks, they even played some games with us 😭
You have all bootcamp to learn they send you to swim class and you have till your week of graduation to pass … however still jump! Take that leap set the mindset for all of bootcamp.
@@camareonsmith4521as long as you're not morbidly obese and you actually try you'll pass the pfa no problem. We only had one guy in our division who actually failed.
I would definitely join the marines if I was American, but unfortunately I'm Canadian, and we don't have a marines. In Canada, every soldier is a rifleman, and the soldiers ride with the Navy aswell as go on land.
No one runs inside the buildings so I don’t know why they try to show it so intense, and then have them wear life jackets in the swimming qualification? 🤨
You got this. Plenty of people do it every day. ALL of them can't be smarter, faster or better than you. Some may be better but plenty are probably worse. Go out there and show them what you got!
Hey there! You must be between the ages of 17 and 41 for Enlisted programs. For additional questions, please reach out to a recruiter here: www.navy.com/contact-us?activity=1292615.
It was easy as hell For everyone going in I don’t recommend calling the instructor a pussy while you’re in the gas chamber lol You will be the last one to come out of there
We still use pay phones to call home. Your cell phone call is when you get there. They then confiscate them and you don’t get them back until you graduate.
