You inspired me to start working out and getting into that good physical shape to join the military!!! Thank you so much and make sure you stay proud of what you do!!
The bootcamp Bible! I kept a couple copies of that too. LOL at your descriptions of everything! P.S. I watched your videos earlier in the year as I was prepping for bootcamp. I graduated mid-August & now I'm at my A school in San Diego... with a roommate who makes me wish I had a room to myself. Hooyah!
I went to AT A school Memphis in 1970/71. We had one room with about 50 sets of metal bunkbeds. I never saw a 2 or 4 man room until we flew into an Air Force base. Nice to see things have improved in 50+ years.
My son is meeting with a navy recruiter tomorrow. Start of a new adventure. I tried telling him to meet with an airforce recruiter too field out his options. Good selection of scents. My son has a great selection of cologne too.
@@IamJW_ damn I forgot about this but it’s been good, hitting my year mark soon, I’m an FC so I got another year of school till I hit the fleet but yeah the navy ain’t too bad
@@giannimagdalen9301 Have fun, I believe bootcamp has a lot less covid restrictions nowadays so you’ll get a better experience. Just push through and you’ll do great. Good luck!
I stayed in a room very similar to this in college lmao, the dorms used to be navy barracks until they shut the base down and the school moved in. I swear I've gotten some of the best sleep of my life on that blue mattress
In 1964 Photo A School at P'cola we had 3-deck brick barracks (across the street from the NavAir cadets), four people to a room with double bunks and double wall lockers. Chow was the mess hall on a secondary base, ours was under renovation. Much more upscale today. I was a Marine PFC, $81/month.
Hello OfficialShim, your videos always bless me and make me SMILE! Our Grandson is in A school @ Pensacola right now! His name is Christian Cheeves! We love your videos, God bless you and keep that honest heart! Have a blessed birthday!!!
This is my favorite video of yours yet, for several reasons. Pensacola is my hometown, although I left in 1973 to join the Navy. I went to MM "A" school in Great Lakes. I arrived there in Feb 1974. That was a rude awakening for this ole Florida boy. I had never experienced winter until then. Your room looks much the same as mine in "A" school, except for the obvious modern touches, like the IPad, beds, electricity, indoor plumbing and such.. Hit up Peg Leg Pete's on the beach, and Marina Oyster Barn, my 2 personal favorites. Good luck in school. Thanks for sharing these videos.
That is so ironic, I graduated bootcamp in August 16th and I am currently in Pensacola for IT. Before leaving for bootcamp I would watch a lot of TH-cam videos so I could get my mind prepared for my new journey. I appreciated some of the advices you had in your videos. You look like you are at the NAS I wish you well there and God Bless!
Listen brother, love your videos.. I plan on joining the navy at the end of November.. my father was in the navy for 10 years.. I’m going for lots of reasons but your videos help me out and even make me laugh! That’s a good thing.. keep up the good content !
I just got out of basic 3 days ago, im in ait now. Im in the Army and my mos is 91j im at Fort Lee rn. I use to watch you alot about military videos and those 3 months of bct went by quick.
During the forge after nick at night when we have to low crawl under the barbed wire while they shoot over our head. I used all my energy low crawling so afterwards we had to ruck 6 miles. I had no energy, i was exhausted, i felt like quitting, wen we made it to the next site i had a tear of joy. When i say it sucked it did. I didn’t believe i would make it.
Woah that shower head is awesome! LOL the collectables!🤣🤣 my best friend after he graduate he had to stay in one of barracks I forgot why he had to wait for A school and he was in the barracks for 3 weeks sometime he shared with a few guys, but I laughed that He got his own Barracks for 3 weeks lucky him! He had fun!! A whole Barracks
At my "A School" (Great Lakes BP&E/Machinist Mate) we had 4 to a room with 2 very basic dbl.deck bunks and 4 good-sized metal lockers...group toilet/showers at end of hall. None of this namby-pamby good-time refrigerator, bureau, etc!!!
Hi, watching this 8/17/20 - did you share your room and bathroom with another person? Because if you do, then you putting out all your stuff on the bathroom counter, where does the other person put their stuff, or do they use your stuff?
YOUR VIDEO WAS SUGGESTED DUE TO ME SEARCHING AIR FORCE VIDEOS AND YOURS THE BEST BY FAR IM GETTING BACK TO THIS VIDEO TO TELL YOU IM ALMOST FINISHED WATCHING ALL THE VIDEOS YOU POSTED I SWEAR THIS SHIIT MOTIVATED ME DOGS PLEASE KEEP MAKING MORE VIDEOS TO KEEP ME INSPIRED
A School barracks living is not the real Navy. Ask your boy to show living on board a Navy ship for a true living experience in the Navy. Sleeping quarters in a temporary school is not an accurate depiction of day to day Navy life, for a young single Sailor.
You do realize that when I went through A School they kept us in open bay barracks; nothing like sharing your digs with 100 of your closest friends! ;) Back then E6 and below did not get housing money and you only qualified for BHA if you were married and by the way, even then you could only get it if you were at least an E5.
Daily reminder that God doesn’t settle for lukewarm and halfway Christians we shall seek him with all of our heart and we will find him. He demands our all, and we should have no problem giving that to him! This journey won’t be easy but it’ll be very rewarding, God bless you all❤️ God loves you and so do I!
What rate are you, OfficialShim? I saw what I thought was an AE insignia on your dress uniform, but I don't think it is now. I was a Marine but went through AEA training when it was at NSA Memphis (1996).
I got a question for ya man I’m going in as a pact seamen will I have a a-school after boot camp or will I go to a ship first then come back and go to a-school?
I’m so weak at you making everything sound more luxurious than it is 😂😂
Kayla Lakeis in the navy that is luxury compared to the ship 💀
Too much he keeps it so luxurious 😃😃
Ddaamn i wanted to say that but didnt know how

Carrotszx make sure you can run your 1.5 mile in 12:15 most people get set back 4 weeks for failing that
Michael Dickens yes I’ve have, me and my fellow FS have been running lately
I am about to turn 31, and going to go at it one more time. I did a couple years ago and decided not to. But it is a dream I have. Any advice?????
Orioles! Yeahhhhhhh! I knew there was some reason I keep watching your videos! I lived in Maryland and Virginia. D.C. Metro.

I’m in Pensacola too. What barracks you in. I knew that room looked familiar
Man that's like a hotel room.... I was an Naval aviator back in the 80's and 90's and my BOQ when on shore duty wasn't that nice....
I was at a smile until he said," These are collectors edition" I about cried XD

Good to see, much better than my compartment back in 1976 in great Lakes A
I saw another door in the bathroom do you have to share with another room?
Man P'cola has changed, I was back there in 08' and we didn't have fancy hotel locks! Anyone and everyone could walk in (and they did)
It was 4 guys to a room and one head for the floor when I went thri AC and SAR.
Great content!! Like to see you doing great things.
Damn. I watched your video to get me ready for the navy and ready for boot camp and now I’m at the same base as you 😂😂

Hello Sir,
Is there a computer to use at great lakes after boot camp?
Thanks,

That coco butter saves lives bro!! 😤💪🏽
I know only certain rates go to the Alpha Barracks. What rate you strike for ?
This man has an enjoyable personality and radiates positive vibes
It's exactly like when I was there in 2005. Thanks bro!
When you described the master bed 😂😂😂 you’re makin something basic sound luxurious. Have you ever considered being a realtor? Lbs
Bro we are in the same barracks I knew i knew you from somewhere
You got the clog 3000s chillin under the bed i dig it!!
You're so funny, describing your luxurious accommodations...
Holy Crap. This is the Waldorf compared to how we lived in A School in 1964-'65. 8 man cubicles with one locker per man common showers and heads.
The lavish life . Awesome lol
I love the gear
So you can buy/bring a laptop with you?
what rate are you goin to a-school for?
MTV cribs what in the fridge I'm weak ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

do fleet returnees still have to go thru those stupid phases?
Do all fleet returns not get roommates ?
what a school did you go to and what would you recommend for an entry level position
Is that the Lincoln? Room 230A?

I'm surprised that the barracks is that luxurious, even without u havin a roommate
Hasn't changed since 1973 "A school" for Radial Engine Mechanic Millington Tenn. Last Class for Radial Engine Mechanics in the Navy!
I got a question for ya man I’m going in as a pact seamen will I have a a-school after boot camp or will I go to a ship first then come back and go to a-school?
Quick!! Question is ? Your merch out already? I want one
did you bring your own laptop and computer/tv or do they give you your own?
happy early birthday bro 💯🙏🏾
So you just gone fall out the sky huh 😂😂
