This video was somewhat helpful & the whole thing the Captain mentions about making CBRN matter tells people this branch should be avoided at all cost. The Captain shouldn’t be false advertising people claiming that he would have picked the same branch Chem again. I say that because shortly after this video he ended up getting out of Chem & the Army. He’s not even doing anything related to Chem so it’s telling me he didn’t enjoy the Chem branch. So why interview someone who is actually telling people the opposite of how they really feel? You can tell by his dull responses he didn’t enjoy this. Also I wish he mention retention rates of the branch as well as promotion rates. It may be beneficial to interview someone else in this branch who can be honest…might even be better if it’s someone who is in a actual Chem unit. Thanks for the video, hope people make a choice that works for them.
Thank you, I certainly appreciate your feedback and your point about how important it is for leaders to respect and understand the value of every branch in the Army. Regarding CPT Baysa, it's worth noting that his views are based on his unique journey and how he navigated his role in this field. While he did honorably transitioned out of the Army, his experiences are valuable, even if they don’t perfectly mirror everyone's path. I appreciate his honorable service and willingness to come on, knowing that criticism would be inevitable. Your comment about interviewing someone currently in a Chemical unit is a good one, and I’m open to doing that in the future. A first-hand account from someone actively serving in a Chem unit could definitely add to this conversation. Once again, I appreciate your willingness to have an open discussion. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!
Thank you for this video sir. I am about to ship for basic training in 3 weeks as a recent college grad E-4 25H looking to go into OCS next year. If you could get someone who was enlisted then commissioned through OCS to speak on their process and whatnot that would be very helpful. (I know I’ll need a waiver for time in service, I plan on submitting my packet after 1 year instead of the full 2 and any other info would be helpful) Thank you sir.
CPT Baysa looks like the typical CBRN LT.
