- United States Navy Search and Rescue Medical Technicians (SMT’s) are Hospital Corpsman trained up to be aircrewmen on top of their medical training. SAR Corpsman are a part of the Navy’s HM/ATF program, just like their SARC and DMT counterparts are. They are trained up to render medical care in search and rescue operations, and have a lengthy and challenging pipeline. This video discusses their training pipeline, what they do, and who they are.

Happy Friday! We hope you enjoy our video on the Navy's SAR Corpsman. This was the last corpsman HM/ATF special program that we haven't covered - until now! We'll see you Tuesday with another upload... stay safe everyone!
A finning technique vid with military fins would be super helpful! Been following you guys for over a year, you guys are one of the best military info channels on TH-cam in my opinion. Keep it up!
Do navy vs CG rescue swimmers
Could you do a video with corpsman attached to marine companies ill be enlisting in the following month and want to know what im getting into
I'd like to know what separates the PJ's from these guys
@@jamesthornton2198 we (smt) are not csar specialists. We are more equivalant to a mix of the usaf special missions aviator/para rescue. We arent csar direct combat specialists. We do other things like crew chiefing, aerial gunnery, emergency medicine.
As a prior candidate at NACCS (2112) I cannot stress enough how important the swimming portion is. "Hell Week" at Naccs is primarily IT exercising followed by WSS (Water Survival School) for 5 days straight, ending on Friday with the 1 Mile Swim. 36 laps in a flight suit sounds easy enough, but your entire class does it at the same time. 30 ish people in 1/3rd of a pool, for 70 minutes. If you get the orders to go SMT from HM A School, make sure you fully understand the 4 survival strokes, as well as having an adept form of conditioning for the other water exercises, especially if you are not water confident. It's an easy school, just stay on top of your uniform regs and demeanor around the DAI (Instructors) and really show confidence and determination during class.
1st week - Indoc, get your shirts and Nalgene labeled, learn the creed. Also get an Up-chit from NAMI.
2nd week - Hell week, 4 basic strokes, face down float in increasing gear, tower jump etc, 1 mile swim, a 5 mile run, and a lot of crucial information/exercises for any mishaps at sea.
3rd week. Disney week, learn about hypoxia and also maybe the Helo dunker, just depends on time. Also learn parachuting and how the SAR portion works if you're the one being rescued.
4th week - Grad week, 5 mile run, some other light PT, get cool with the instructors, design your class patch, get your aircrew bag with your nomex, leather jacket, new "flight boots" and your gloves etc. Grad week is also where you do your ceremony. Then you pack up and go whereever next. For me it was across base to A-School. For an HM, you'll prob go back to your original duty station until SERE slots you in. It can take around 4-30 days depending.
To all future candidates, be loud, be proud, be perfect.
Hooyah Aircrew, and good luck.
Shout out to the OGs in this field like Brown, Volbrech, Benevediz, Steele, and the list goes on. As a Marine SAR swimmer back when that was a small thing, these dudes were doing the stuff before it was even a thing and all taught me sooo much.
Gents,
I used this video to help guide a junior Sailor today. They are interested in becoming an SMT and I knew this video would have a lot of the info they need. Your work is much appreciated. Keep it up!
Hoo yahh!!! From retired SMT. Started at Yuma, Beaufort, finished in Jax Fl with HS-5. Two tours with the 2515th NAAD wave 1 and 4
Thankyou for your service and for saving oives
Absolutely love these videos! I'm currently stationed in DC, using your physical training links to prepare for HM A school (and ATF PST) in 14 months! Understanding the pipelines associated with my career options is incredibly helpful
Thanks for the support, and good luck!
is this the same as airr ?
@@leakyleekss nope. He's joining the Hospital Corpsmen Advanced Technical Field (HM-ATF), which has 3 different corpsmen rating, Special Amphibious Reconnaissance Corpsmen (SARCs), Search & Rescue Medical Technicians (SMTs) and Dive Medical Technicians (DMTs). So depends which one he joins. All 3 require American citizenship and security clearance. AIRRs are primarily rescue swimmers, with very basic medical training. Apart from that they are also aircrew, gunners, hoist operators.
Hey did you take the PST before shipping or at A school
Hope your enjoying it and thankyou for your service
Really cool upload for a Friday, SAR was already high speed, let alone with these new medical capabilities.
all info from video pretty accurate, in Texas right now for Hm rate. Friends with the ATF guys and wanting to suit package after school but this is so far accurate info! thank u
Thanks for making the video. I graduate aircrew candidate school part of the pipeline next week. This video is very informative for new smt candidates and gives an overview of what they should expect. Thanks again.
I did my mile swim in 72 min. Got kicked in the face by a Marine...twice. That's a 4 wk course. Took me 10 wks to graduate. Got injured 3x. They still give you 80 min for the swim?
Gentleman, you provide a true service. Please carry on!
Love the channel going threw marine OCS selection process right now going on the board in November for the January class.
How is it going
Of all the videos I watch on the military the PJs really have the best-looking men LOL. God bless all of them and all of our military
Thanks for making this video. Before this, there really wasn’t any information on SMTs. I’ve been weighing my options on what I want to do next.
Yo good video. Marine Force Recon next.
I love you video and you got me think about a career in the navy forces is the anyway you can do about more information about esc.
Nice intro guys.
Thank you!
Would you do a video on Navy AIRR?
Hey can we get a in depth video on rifle qualification and the combat marksmanship tables
All that b-roll of dudes I'm the water were rescue swimmers lmao
Could you do navy rescue swimmers next???
Could you do A episode on coast guard damage control
Is this still the same for Naval Aviation Rescue Swimmer in the AW ratings? Been out since 2009 seems like a lot has changed since then.
Nice. Good stuff.
PST has changed a lot
Air Force "Pararescue" come to mind here?
Ide say so
SMTs arent swimmers though
@@beeradg89 PJ's are! and you must be dam good to be one......
Ted H. Also, PJs conduct CSAR, the big deal in that being the “C” for Combat. I don’t think SAR Med Techs and PJs can be comparable
@@tedh.8356 An SMT isnt a PJ. Also the CSAR the navy does and the PJs do are two very different methods. Navy is really only for low end/non contested environments with almost 0 time spent on the ground.
Can we get a field strip and rifle cleaning video?
Do a video on military/fed law enforcement dog handler
Considered doing a USMC Scout Sniper video?
Can u do a Pjs video
Can you make a video on breacher school
Not gonna lie, if it was easier to enlist as a prior service guy, I’d jump all over this. Already got the NREMT-P
Sad thing is the Big Navy doesn’t work with the registry to provide flight medic quals so the rate basically translates to nothing in civilian sector
@@brycceee2332 no the navy doesnt but theres a free DHA funded 5 week course at Ft Bragg. Theres always a way my friend you just have to put some work in.
Is there a sere video
Can we get a video on mos specific physical standards that are required at ITB
this
Whether Aviation Rescue Swimmer of the United States Navy, or else, Aviation Survival Technician of the United States Coast Guard, They, as well as AFSOC Special Tactics PJs, and Navy Search and Rescue Corpsmen prove to the Civilian that the Armed Forces ( Army,Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, Marine Corps and Navy) are not all about taking lives in War and Operations Other Than War( OOTW), but, can and do save lives, as well. HooYah, Shipmates, from this Prior Service USMC and US Army Veteran!!🇺🇸🦅🗽🪂🤿⚓
Couldn't agree more
So can i still be an SMT with glasses?
Yes, as long as your vision is correctable to 20/20 and you are not color blind. It is a great job!

Do SMT's have tactical training?
Can you make a rescue swimmer pipeline video
Currently in the Army as a 19D but I'm also nationally Certified as an EMT and in School obtaining my Paramedic certification. Really been looking into going Blue side when I get out of the Army and would like to become a Navy SMT, would like more information on the requirements for prior service, is it the same for civilians?
What is the difference between a Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer and a Navy Rescue Swimmer.
In terms of training and capabilities.
In simplest terms, the Coast Guard AST will have vastly more rescue experience and exposure than the overwhelming majority of Navy Rescue Swimmers.
The reality of being an Aviation Rescue Swimmer in the Navy is you will train for a role that in all likelihood, you will never actually perform, except for in extremely rare circumstances. Between the fact if you’re stateside the Coast Guard will always get the call before you do, and advances in Naval Aviation safety, means the odds of a pilot punching out of his jet are slim at best. Again that’s not to say it can’t happen, but odds are slim to you ever seeing that.
The only real chance of you getting a rescue is if you end up in a Station SAR where there are no Coast Guard assets and the Navy is really the only show in town. Places like Fallon Nevada or Whidbey Island Washington or China Lake. Or you just happen to be the lucky guy who gets the call that a guy fell overboard or a pilot punched out.
That’s the reason why the job is being rebranded as a “Helicopter Crew Chief/Aerial Gunner” billet in a recruiting sense, because they realize just saying you’ll only be a Rescue Swimmer is misleading to what the job actually entails. You will spend more time acting as a Crew Chief or gunner than you will actually acting in a swimmer capacity.
Now that’s not to say the job is bad, you’ll get to fly around in helicopters, shoot guns, and jump from them, but if you’re thinking you’ll only ever be a rescue swimmer, you should temper your expectations. That’s part of the reason why there’s a lot of job dissatisfaction within the AWS/AWR community and subsequently low retention numbers for first tour guys. A lot of people sign up thinking they’re going to be just a rescue swimmer, which isn’t reality.
OPTR Dockside Bars Very true, a good friend of mine was SAR USN and during his eight years of service he had three live recoveries.
@@optrdocksidebars7106
Thanks bro
Really want to know? The uscg are way better swimmers, thr navy bros get a bait and switch and end up more as crew chiefs/ aerial gunners
What is the main difference between a search and rescue corpsman and a navy rescue swimmer?
SAR Medical Technicians (SMTs) aka SAR Corpsmen deal with more on the medical aspect, like providing medical treatment to recovered personnel who are wounded and requires medical attention. Rescue Swimmers (AIRR) deal with more on the rescue aspect in the ocean meaning they are the ones going to be jumping into the huge tidal wave ocean to retrieve downed personnel and get them on the helicopter safely, just like the Coast Guard Rescue Swimmers, where if they require medical attention then SMTs would be the ones providing the care. SMTs however are also capable of conducting combat search and rescue (CSAR), something like the PJs do.
Wow SAR training and deployment has grown since old OG days for me ; SH-3 Seaking . Do you still do Marine Recon with Amphibious platforms. 🤙
Do a vid on seals
Big supporter of this channel however,the info on the SMT pipeline is accurate, but most of the videos you showed were all navy AIRR only a few were actually SMT videos.
I did surface SAR a few months ago, but got dropped a few weeks in because of my run time. But I am glad I did because now I know what I want to do for the rest of my navy career. As of right now, I am an STG and want to crossrate into this program. How hard is it going to be to crossrate as an STG to HM and do this pipeline?
When civilian Join the Navy can Go directly to SARC Contract??
Does SMT have additional PST/physical requirements like DMT does? Or just the same as the navy wide physical requirements? (Besides the extra swimming requirements, not worries about those).
DMTs, SMTs and SARCs are all under HM-ATF program, which have additional PST and requirements.
Hey can we get a video on swim qualifications and example of the events to qualify for each level
Use google. 2nd class swim qual, learn the strokes, be able to swim far distances, tread a bit. That’s it.
I can tell you, what one do you wanna know, eod, diver, swcc, seal, or airr?
@@josephmitchell6199 could u kindly tell me all of those u mentioned?
Do Army Dustoff Medic
What’s the difference between them and pjs?
1 thing I know about PJs is that apart from conducting CSAR missions whether conventional or unconventional behind enemy lines (like SOFs missions went wrong and need rescue), they are also highly trained in specialized technical rescues like mountain rescue, high-angle slope rescue, crevasse rescue, cold-weather rescue (rock climbing, ice climbing etc) confined space rescue, urban rescue, extrications of vehicles and aircrafts. They're also trained to conduct rescue in water environments like ocean air to sea rescue (like the ones often done by Coast Guard rescue swimmers), underwater search & rescue, swift water rescue etc. They are also highly trained in emergency medicine. Basically they are the only US military personnel trained and capable in conducting the full spectrum of personnel recovery (rescue) missions by air, sea and land.
I have an HM-ATF contract. How do I get to SARC?
I said to my career counsellor that I want to be a delivery nurse so he recommended I change my NEC to be more relevant. MAN SAID SEARCH AND RESCUE OR IDC. Man… I just wanna deliver babies.

I saw on other videos that yall have done their are Special Operations in reserve unit why is that??
That’s kinda the girl version of air rescue swimmers can you do a video on them it’s part of navy special warfare
Air Rescue is not apart of Naval Special Warfare.
Can females be SAR corpsmen?
Yes, there are currently female SMTs and HM - ATF is not male only.
Shouldn't let them swim. For the same reason women shouldn't be with recon. The blood attracts predators
@@bomcstoots1that’s out of line 😂😂😂😂
Is there a requirement for secret security clearance for to be a search and rescue corpsman?
Yes there is
@@beeradg89 what is it?
@@Deimos_the_Autist there's a lot. Medically and fitness related. If your interested talk to a recruiter who can screen you to see if you qualify
@@beeradg89 my pulhes is all 1s for special forces physical exam medically i have no issues i currently have a secret security clearance(Army) im just not much of a swimmer and hopefully can find somebody to help me train so yeah i still got some time before this contract is over but the corps or Navy corpsmen seems like a better job wish Army had one so i wouldnt have to wait so long
So I'm 24, and about 3 weeks away from graduating nursing school and search and rescue looks fucking awesome. Anyone got any tips or advice?
Maybe become an aeromedical nurse?
I'm currently in Airr candidate school to be a AWSor AWR if u could do a video about the two that would be very beneficial
Can I still be a SMT with contacts or glasses ? I’m only 14 but I’m planning on joining the navy in a few years and I just want to know now to prepare. (Btw love your videos 👍🏾)
Glasses yes. Contacts not allowdd
So I can still be an SMT with glasses?
@@arielledorisme5035 yes. Your able to get prk after your in and qualified. Contacts are not allowed in flight
@@beeradg89 thank you
Is there currently a female SMT
Yes, I’ve served with a few of them.
@@optrdocksidebars7106 Thank you:)
If a pilot is downed does the sar helicopter git an escort?
👌👌👌
another giveaway contest today ?
A Navy "HM-ATF" "SMT/Search & Rescue Medical Technician" is very similar to a Navy "AIIR" 'Air Rescue Swimmer'. Why don't they combine the career fields? Can you make a video on their differences perhaps? Because I am having a hard time figuring it out. SMT's seem to swim as well. And both career fields are Aircrewmen. I believe the only difference is 'SMT's' can become Paramedics and 'Rescue Swimmers' do not. A video on the "AIIR" rating would be wonderful! Thank you!
SMTs do medicine, AIRR are swimmers other than those they have the same quals
Same, I'm getting confused with AIRRs and SMTs too.
@@beeradg89 AIRRs do need to get EMT qualification too right?
@@dallasyap3064 no. Its a proposal though I don't think it'll gain any traction
@@beeradg89 I see. I think I must have mixed that up with USCG ASTs.
Do they go through official paramedic training?
Hi! I am Max, a 13 year old. And I am going to join the military as an officer, doing the OCS hopefully. I am wondering what job would be good if I want to be in healthcare, or combat/ both.
Maybe Air Force Special Operations Surgical Team (SOST)?
Special forces medics like green berets, navy sarcs, army rangers are also good, but they are pretty tough to get into, and you would use weapons for killing people, not for your or your patients protection.
Sorry forgot about the officer
Maybe Airforcecombat rescue officers, they lead pararescue teams, but they don’t see combat as much, they mostly do medevacs that are more dangerous for the army’s medevacs.
you cant get stationed overseas?
Are they like CSAR but for the Navy?
Essentially; you wouldn't be wrong , on a foundational level, to compare the two, in principle.
I would like to see a video
about women being corpsman, please. 🙂
Can you make a video about delta force
What’s the difference between them and coast guard search and rescue
SMTs aren’t Rescue Swimmers. This video is a bit misleading with what footage you’re being shown (which no fault to these guys because SMT footage is pretty hard to come by with it being such a small community), but SMTs are not trained to rescue people from the water. That’s the job of their rescue swimmer. Once the swimmer has brought the patient inside the cabin of the helicopter, then the SMT will start treating them. For overland situations, SMTs will often be the first rescuer deployed to render aid to patients, but they do not act in a water capacity.
Acorn Pop coasties get way more rescues
Does SAR see combat
What if you can’t swim ?? I can’t swim :(
Search and Recue Corpsman? So isn't that just SARC?
No, that would be a special amphibious reconnaissance corpsman. Sorry I know it’s a late response
Actually there are many different corpsman rating. There is a 1 is called Hospital Corpsman - Advanced Technical Field (HM-ATF), which has 3 different corpsman ratings, Special Amphibious Reconnaissance Corpsmen (SARCs), Search & Rescue Medical Technicians (SAR Med Techs or SMTs) and Dive Medical Technicians (DMTs).
Is the paramedic school in Fayetteville NC that was mentioned the SOCM course that SARCs attend?
No. It's a civilian course
Currently in the course. Its a partnership between Womack Army Medical Center and Fayetteville Tech. Its 20 weeks. First 4 weeks is class mon-sat 08-1700, after that is class mon-wed 08-1700, thurs-sat clinicals (all 12.5 hours hospital or ambulance, shift varies).
Thanks.
What is the difference between AIRR and SAR
AIRR is the pipeline for AWS and AWR. SAR is a mission set.
Scout Sniper
Do they do land resuce?
Yes
Can you be stationed outside of the country as an SMT?
Yep, Guam and Japan for HSC-25 and HSC-12 respectively.
Thank you so much! As an 18 year old that’s joining the Navy with an AIRR contract, what advice would u give me?
Choose Sierra
Remember you may do few or no rescues, airr isn’t smt
Goodluck, hope you like your job.
Thankyou for your service.
Are sarcs and AIRR the same?
No, they are two different units.
I can tread in my pool for 20 minutes at the age of 12 is that good?
I'm a boy btw
Yes
navy seal
US Navy Search And Rescue Corpsmen are the equivalent to US Coast Guard Aviation Survival Technicians, aka, Rescue Swimmers, but are obviously not the US Air Force Special Tactics PJs.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🗽⚔️💪
Broooo they are nowhere near the same as USCG rescue swimmers... I know a USN Swimmer and he’s only been on 2 calls, I’ve also talked to a USCG rescue swimmers and he gets 3-6 calls a shift bro. And USCG has a way harder A school with 80% fail rates, USCG A school is 6 months of hell
Sar corpsman arent swimmers
What's the age limit?
What is the max age limit?
35 I think
Can you become SAR as a reservist?
Nope
Can you be a Search and Rescue corpsman as a reservist?
Unfortunately not, there are no hm atf contracts available for reserves. But there is for army medevac and Air Force pararescue. Corpsman jobs, most of not all have reserve options I'm sure
Their pipeline is easy as fuck
If you get stationed in China lake I feel bad for you
Currently stationed there. Flying in the Sierra’s is dope. We are a rappelling command (unlike most SMT billets). And we get a 72 every other weekend. Been in for 12 years and this is by far my favorite spot so far.
Erin Williams Does the crew consist of SMT’s, AWS, Crew Chief and Pilots? Would like to be at one of the stations, hooked on this rate.
This sounds like PJ air force? is this a special force or just a job
someone gotta unlike the video so we can keep it at blessed 777 likes
Do you guys have an email I can contact, I have a lot of questions?
So you would have to wait out your initial contract in order to go IDC?
