I’m considering joining the National Guard right when I get out of high school that way I can be in the Infantry part time and still live a civilian life
do what @Flame7 said, I'm currently doing that rn and ab to head to basic. You can join as young as 17 and as a HS Jr. Easily knock off 2 years and gain some experience and early pay.
I agree with the above comments! the earlier you start the better. I wish I started earlier. my friend is 19 and already an E4… by the time he’s 21 he’ll more than likely be an E5/Sergeant already and only 4 years in!
Going to basic in 2 days. Went to university right after high school (2020) and didn't know what I going to do with my life. Finally settled on Natural Resources with an option in Conservation Law Enforcement but then ran out of government assistance for school with three years of college done. Contacted the recruiter about 100% tuition assistance and am planning on completing OSUT for Basic and Military Police training and will return to college to finish my degree while doing part-time National Guard stuff. Oh and if you have enough university credits completed like me you can start out as an E-3 (PFC). Or you can go the ROTC route in that interests you except that you probably want to start that right away once you get into a University. Also no student loan debt.
Hey I’m going to basic soon and am tryna get the idea of how the military life will be for the national guard and this is really helpful and nice to see. Also I recommend you don’t show your car or license plate m, especially as your channel grows. In no way am I tryna to threaten you I just want you to be aware and and take safer measures to hide your personal information m. Okay well I subscribed and can’t wait to see more!❤
Olivia if you wanna be a real soldier then go active, do not go national guard. You only work 1 weekend a month, don’t go through 22 weeks of infantry OSUT just to go national guard (but don’t get a non combat mos just a waste of your time at that point) my advice is to sign as 18x, you’ll go to airborne school and special forces selection
Give it like a year and you'll be ripping the identifiers off your uniform to put on the cold weather top lol. By the end of my contract I only had one set of patches for every uniform.
You said that only 20 people in your unit was there while 150 were in Kuwait. Did you have the option to stay back from deployment or was it just random?
This was good. I plan on going guard and doing basic over the summer and I guess ait in early fall and so on. Wanting to be a paralegal. Got in the 90s on the picat. I'm in the southeast, so I guess different weather.
You get the same benefits as active but even more educational benefits. Regular army has a budget for college while National guard gives you automatic free tuition after you pass AIT. You get access to VA loans, and military discounts, as well as VA business loans. Plus you usually get deploys within the US but have the opportunity to volunteer to over seas deployments. You still go through regular army basic training as well as AIT. So you’re just as trained.
@@azielm5900 just as trained is complete bullshit bro. I trained way harder on active duty as an Infantrymen. You also don’t get access to the Post 9-11 GI Bill. You don’t qualify for VA healthcare unless you get onto an federally activated deployment (OEF/OND/OIF/SYRIA). Aside from that, there isn’t much difference. (There is legislation going around to allow national guard (non prior active duty) full access to Post 9-11 GI bill/ VA healthcare.
So I recently got out of the Coast Guard and I want to serve in the National Guard next. I heard lots of like talk about weekend drill. Is it every weekend you're "on duty" or one weekend out of the month?
Quick question in regards to the covax, is it possible to be exempt from it once you sign up if you somehow get a medical exemption outside of the military (personal doctor) ?
Way too much time on random stuff. We’re not watching to learn how to shave/ put on socks/ waste money in a gas station. Good content creators may show this but for a very short amount of time
Look into the options available for being an aircraft mechanic or a Warrant Officer. Being a WO is a lot more competitive and the training takes potentially years along with much longer drill schedules and administrative duties after drilling, however, as the name implies, you get the luxury of flying. As an aircraft mechanic, you get all the same benefits of being around the vehicles with less drill and training time. Especially for your University schedule. This is all assuming you want to work on rotary aircraft and not fixed wing because that would be Air Force NG; my advice would not change, however if that is the case.
I see you posted this 9 months ago so you've probably made a decision already but this is the route I've gone. I've been back from AIT for around 3 months and I'm going into my colleges aviation program. The guard is covering all of my tuition. Mostly through federal tuition assistance but there are more than enough programs to cover everything. My job is a 15P aviation operations specialist. While it's aviation related I did go wrong here thinking it would help me in becoming a pilot. Very little of being a 15p will actually help you become a pilot. So either become a pilot in the army or just choose a job that sounds the most fun to you. It's only 1 weekend a month and the benefits are more than worth it. If you just want the education assistance I'd also recommend choosing an MOS where your unit I close to you. Mine is 2 hours away which isn't terrible but with better planning it could have been 20 minutes away. I could have been shooting Artillery instead of dispatch aircraft and doing paperwork.
Why are you so orderly its annoying me. I was never really a orderly person I just kinda wing everything. Your the type of guy to plan your day before go to sleep.
I feel like I have to plan my day before I sleep. I don't like my day to happen to me, I like to happen to my day. My dad is the opposite though. He prefers to keep his options open and be spontaneous as much as possible. Now THAT annoys me. I feel comfort with having a schedule for the day or at least a to do list. Even on my off days or "fun days". Without it I feel lost almost and often waste the day sometimes.

Aye that’s sup, doing the same but damn, we gonna deployed no doubt within the next few years.

You know you are thoroughly Minnesotan when there is snow on the ground, and yet you put ice in your drink.
Being a Minnesotan I love being able to recognize where you’re at

Yikes. Imagine saying just as trained 😂
Wait what the I’m video say in 2024 but the video is 2 years old that make the video done in 2022
Dedicated✔️✔️ Proud Brotha
Hey I am thinking about joining the National guard, I talked to a recruiter named David Crowe! Do you think you can make a video talking about MEPS
I wanna join the guard but I don’t wanna shave my goatee
So I recently got out of the Coast Guard and I want to serve in the National Guard next. I heard lots of like talk about weekend drill. Is it every weekend you're "on duty" or one weekend out of the month?
one weekend out of the month
I am so mind F by this it's says 2024 but was posted two years ago. You part of the time travel squad?
I was thinking the same thing
Quick question in regards to the covax, is it possible to be exempt from it once you sign up if you somehow get a medical exemption outside of the military (personal doctor) ?
No. They are processing all troops who refuse or even get a valid exemption for discharge.
Good news for you, they dropped the mandate for soldiers. No need to get it anymore
@@MistahLogi how do you ensure no covax?
@@kobanebook9888 Nowadays there is no way to avoid it, best bet is to not enlist and find a real career path/skill
Nice video buddy...greetings from Italy
Keep up the content !
Eyyyy CBRN boi
Do you have to take weekends or can you for example do midweek? Thanks
He said 0630 was early hahaha yup this is 100% guard

Classic national guard. Living at home with their parents and studying a BS major or working a low wage job
I like your boots
Would love to have a conversation with you brother .
How do u afford a car and apartment in the guard
By working a regular 9 to 5 job 😂
Because hes a civilian that has federal and state duty lmao. He probably makes more at his regular job than he would on active pay with his mos
@@Littlepotatochip117 😂😂
What’s your mos?
I have a question. I want to join the guard and go to college for aviation. Would you think that would be too much ?
Don’t think so, one of my homies have a similar idea
@@kashkc3530 okay 🙏🏽 thank you

close the water homie.
What are the benefits? I have my civilian job that pays well. I just want to get paid to stay fit and serve my country
Won't make much only drill pay and if you lucky get a full-time MOS
@@thechurchoflogic1670no benefits after serving
@@itweety21 unless you do 20-years or serve in combat

Yikes , you use the handle to exit bathroom . 😢
CRBN? Nice.
I dont like coffee so can you take kratom in the military?
