So glad I found this channel. I’m almost 34 and I’m enlisting in the Navy soon!!
hell yea best of luck!
Good luck. You got this!
I am 34 and have been actively exploring the Navy and Air Force. Debating between enlisting and OTS. How is it going for you???
i’m 38 i finish bootcamp a month ago. A school now . Good luck
Congrats! Good luck
AC “A” school. Millington, TN. Summer/Fall 1993. We didn’t have private bathrooms 😆 We had one community bathroom on each floor of the barracks. Kinda like a miniature boot camp set up.
I was in Pensacola in the summer of 1990 for Aircrew school. A lot has changed in 30 years and a lot more modern today. A school was in Millington, TN after Aircrew and it sucked going from Pensacola to Tennessee. You guys today are so lucky having everything in Pensacola. It's a nice base. Our mess hall in 1990 was small but it was one of the best in the fleet because the officers also ate there too. It's an old base. Built in 1913 so in 100 years it went through a lot of changes. It's better now.
I'm barely turning 27 and I thought I was late, when making the decision, glad I came across this super Moto-type vid
My dad worked at the BOQ, back in the 80's I can remember walking the hallways and the smell..😢
I did boot camp then on to aircrewman candidate school in Pensacola and then A School in Millington, TN. Then to Jacksonville, FL for 36 weeks of training in VP-30. I was an AO and at the time the only 4 duty stations there were for aircrew AO's (on P-3C Orion's) was Hawaii, California, Florida or Maine. I was the class honorman so I picked Maine & met up with my friends who were a class ahead of me the entire time right from boot camp. Great memories and nice video you put together, cheers!
Dope video! Currently AM2, and I remember graduating A school almost exactly 3 years ago. Seeing your vlog really takes me back :)
Your positivity is really inspiring - I often see people in the Navy, myself included feel unhappy with various things and let that stuff get to them (like getting Norfolk for orders 🙃). It really seems that the excitement about your future in the Navy is genuine rather than blind.
I look forward to seeing what comes next for you after A school.
Hey AM2 , thanks so much for reaching out! Yea I got orders to Lemoore which most people think is terrible…especially airframes at my squadron “rag”. I’ve always tried to be optimistic no matter where I’m at in life and make the best of every situation! After all I am a 30 year old airman haha! But yea I hope to rub off on some of these young guys and look forward to posting more content soon! Take care and best of luck!
I was there in 97, place hasn't changed a bit. Great video!
funny that I found this channel...my 22 year old son is heading to basic in a week, will attend A school in Pensacola to be a Structural Aircraft Mechanic too...he's excited about this chapter in his life...as his Dad, it's a little tough to think I won't be able to see him for a while, but once he's in Pensacola, I'm sure things will level out for him....and me and his mom. Thanks for the great video, all the best to you with your journey too.
I'm 32, I ship out soon. I'll be turning 33 around the time I hit A-School. I choose AV/ FTS and I'm so happy I found this video! THANK 🎉❤
Just swore in, and picked AM, and I am so excited. I ship off to bootcamp in a month and a half
Man, "ABH" here, thanks for uploading, took me BACK, and "The food, OH THE FOOD!"
Went to AOA school but in Naatc millington Tennessee fall of 1984 old timer here , Pensacola looks like a great base , Seen the the blues practice once there good luck !
Omg chair force! I haven’t seen NAS in years…I just moved back and I definitely forgot about this crazy heat
Hi there. I just got to Pensacola, a few days ago. I feel lost. Can you share a little bit what you know about the watch qualification. How to prepare efficiently for that? Thanks again. I just discovered your channel, great content.

I went to A-School at NAS Meridian. It was hot like P’cola and right square in the middle of nowhere.
The memories
Almost 30 and trying to join. MEPS is coming up for me. Wish me luck, men
Can you discuss the ASVAB and how you prepared for it please! Love your videos!!
Thankyou ! Honestly just go online and start downloading practice tests ! They’ll give you a sheet of websites at the recruiter! Some stuff is hard to prep for I mostly studied the math and did well! You got this!
Good information, thanks
You went to college for music? So did I! Ended up joining the Navy!!!
Cool I’m going to boot camp as AM. 4 days left
Any suggestions?
I got AM but I’m good at breaking things 😀so I passed this rate. Anyway good video.
POG
I would’ve loved to be an AM or AO. But instead I was a boatswains mate in San Diego
Question, are you allowed to go off base on your off days/when you’re not in class?
not until weekend
18 and ship out in a week then heading to Florida wish me luck for the youngster
I shipped dec 5 I’ll be there soon
Hey man - you mentioned in an earlier video that you went to college before you enlisted. Why didn't you go OCS? I have a degree but my gut is telling me that enlistment is for me right now.
I’m too old too go ocs for navy and I don’t have a degree…took a big pay cut going in at my age but I’m super happy I did it!! If your over 30 and have a degree you can still do officer for air force from what I’ve been told !
My daughter will be stationed here in February! She leaves for boot camp on Dec 6th! She’s a CTT.
She will actually be stationed at Corry Station. Different base but not far from NAS
Oh ok. Thank you for clarifying that. I didn’t realize it was another base there too
i've been there too as netsafa international student
Love Pensacola
I use to work out in the gym Corry station
I was an AMH3 88-92. I think they may have combined the rates.
Son getting ready to go there for avionics. Wondering about family visits?
sucks for your son that avionic PT is a touture
Pensacola FL is literally the best in the fleet 😂. LITERALLY
When did Millington fade away?
Hello I’m switching from hospital corpsman to hopefully aviation machinists mate, is there any advice that you could give to me?
What do you need on you ASVAB overall for AM
Can you leave the a school area, like let's say you had relatives in a town over ?
Yes on the weekends and it also depends on what phase. A lot of people spend weekends with there family and friends!
Where’s the laundry room? I can’t find it.
Bro I went to school for music too, and going in for aviation lol heading to BMT on dec 1
I met many musicians and artists in the Navy You'll feel right at home!
@@Jakespacewolf I can’t wait! Are you on the artist side or engineer side of the biz?
Hi Hero can I join the Navy with a small tattoo on my rist. I have anchor on my rist can the Navy still accept me with the tattoo ?
Edgar the navy at 39
Hey! I have a concerning question so I watched another TH-camr video about A school and he stated that Aviation a school can not leave base at all not even on the weekends…. Can you confirm???
During covid that was the case and even last year the rule would change back and forth. Now that cases are pretty low I’m pretty sure you can leave. That’s how it was for me last summer !
@@Jakespacewolf I was nervous because his video was a year ago and this video is 7 months ago
Going in for AET.. any tips since you were in IT?
No sorry I reclassified as AM so that’s the only thing I know!
29 and swearing in on Thursday!
Hell yea frames
I’m about to go to boot camp my job is QM how can I change to AM
I’m 32 years old
Im joining at 36 year
the Airman uniforms they use in 2020 fro the Navy???? Even camos were blue. Can't see the caps old whites and blues anywhere
This guys giving me steve-o vibes
🙏
1:40 , HORRIBLE MEMORIES...
🤣
Are people that aren’t in the navy allowed in the museum
I believe so aslong as they can get escorted on base!
Are you active?
I’m 28 have a degree. I’m waiting for the jab mandate to go away. Assuming when t man is back in 24. So I’ll be 31. Can I go in as officer ?
Hey sorry to break the news but the Covid vaccine mandate is never going to go away. It is now a required vaccine for all military personnel and all those who joining
It’s not going away the mandate is here to stay
Why rerate?
wasn't cut out for IT
I’m 31 and want to join
you got this still in your prime man, I'm living proof!
@@Jakespacewolf my family is helping me stitch my ears… I made the mistake in making huge holes in them never thinking I’d want to join.. my surgery is on the 28th !
@@aldoramonz 🤨you can do it man, I’m 31 also leaving November, never too late.
@@yuzihaooo good luck to you ! I’m setting the goal to join. I have nothing else going on in life, it’s time to change things up.
@@aldoramonz You good man, after the surgery you can find a local recruiter they will guide you, if you have any conditions they will help you too.
What about girls? What's the rules with that? Any wiggle room? XD
lol stay away from navy girl!!
why were you reclassified?
I wasn't eligible for a top secret security clearance so I had to choose another job. I'm actually very happy it worked out this way!
@@Jakespacewolf I was thinking of doing IT, what was it that made you ineligible? Cool videos btw!
@@Jakespacewolf what went wrong with your clearance?
Really 30?????
Bro, you look like you listen to new Drake. 😂
Thanks Bro, sadly I haven’t heard any new Drake tunes is it good? I mostly listen to Electronic music like Drum & Bass, Dubstep and Techno.
@@Jakespacewolf lol, I refuse to listen to it. I’m just giving you a hard time. I’m actually reenlisting this year in the Navy.
@@GUAM24 lmao Good luck to you Brother! 🤘
W T H you doing with ribbons. You haven’t done anything. They giving you ribbons for doing boot camp now days?
The national defense ribbon has been giving to all service members who enlisted post 9/11. The marksman ribbon is given to those who shoot on the 9mm and score between 180-203.
rah
BRO You are not suppose to be on your phone during duty day especially sweepers =D NEGATIVE PC
hey pal thanks for the concern.. def wasn't a sweaper in my Nsu's more like a yomen who was authorized to use my phone at the front desk not least of all in the closet getting toilet paper. but who knows maybe rules have changed that was almost 2 years ago do you still wear masks?
The language just turns people off.
I would’ve loved to be an AM or AO. But instead I was a boatswains mate in San Diego
I would love to get stationed there! jealous!
