My First Year at the Naval Academy

- I'm so stoked to have finally wrapped up my plebe year at the United States Naval Academy! Creating this project has helped it all come full circle from the time I spoke with Congressman Pittenger to all the football games, cross country races, and all the other adventures made possible by USNA! I'm so thankful to be a part of it.

The editing is insane, it’s like a movie...this vid deserves more views
yeah it was extremely professional. Can't wait to see him get his first 1M
That’s what I was saying
Eduardo Garza facts I’m tryna make my channel like this this is dope
That’s what I was thinking the entire time
agreed!
This makes the academy look like summer camp lmao, sick editing man.
August Duplechain it’s funny cuz half of the midshipmen love it, the others hate it
IKR
David Warburton I was born and raised in Annapolis and I’d certainly say that’s an accurate statement after a decade of meeting midshipman and now having former classmates who are midshipman.
No kidding
August Duplechain military is hard nahhh nice click bait
2 minutes in and it’s already better than my WHOLE 4 years being enlisted...
Lmao
Were you in a branch that actually did stuff
@@gutwounds doesn't matter enlisted doesn't have the college experience and i think that's what he meant
What's the difference in academy and enlisted
@@lancefisher8358 depends on the branch and the career field. 60 - 70% of Air Force enlisted have a bachelor's degree or higher
Man that should’ve been the Naval academy Joining Trailer ‼️
People would definitely join
Vision Blurry and quit after a few days because in this video he didn’t showed up the real toughness of training and stuff
most people wouldnt get accepted anyway
Don’t get me killed out there. Sincerely- The Enlisted.
Greg Ryans boot
mega fuckin boot
😂😂😂
Ducking Shower shoe
Hey buddy. Did you just blow in from boot town?
Everyone gangsta till the space force starts shootin space lasers
First group of then passed like a week ago
Don't think I've seen anything more American
army west point
Go Navy Beat Army
@@cloakedmetalhead1950 GO NAVY!
Michael Baker
Nah man this desperately lacks some fat people if this is the most American video
@Lockjaw bruh. Don't take it to heart. I think he's just joking😄
This is an editing masterpiece. I’m not sure why in the hell it was in my recommendations but I’m glad it was.
8 months later I’m in the same boat
The Navy should hire you to make recruitment videos.
Fr
@@brookeee3209 he's already in the Navy for some type of training, maybe he is in for civilian connections or something
He is! He helps a lot with USNA’s social media.
@@scrubbnubb4955He’s studying at the Naval academy-as soon as he graduates he’s a naval officer
The Navy should put this as a trailer or something. Like this makes me want to go to the Navy ngl
This video is so good I joined in March
Michael Crabtree you’re going to the naval academy?
@@samtoro man ion know what's going on rn
@@michaelcrabtree9804 dang I hope you got accepted bro I heard if you reapplied again and wrote a good essay they will accept you
I just realized every person in this video are going to be commissioned in the navy LMAO
Or Marine corps
@@OGmeeks52 no, just the navy, the marine corps has its own school called the merchant marines
@@Robloxchat123 the usna has a marine option bud
@@Robloxchat123 this is extremely wrong
ultimate shota not even close. The MMA is completely different. That’s for commissioning for Ship Officers on public shipping lines. Think of it like the Academy for “pilots,” but for tankers, cargo ships and cruise lines. However not considered actual military service. The USNA DOES in fact have either the Naval or Marine Corps option.
It looks all fun and games. Until you get there😂 then ur like “Ok... this is not what i’ve been told...
Couldn't have been said better!!
With a video with only a couple thousand views, I wasn’t expecting the video to have such great quality. Good luck man! I know you’ll make a great Ensign, and I look forward to calling you my shipmate one day dude.
Young man this is a great representation of the fun parts of the Naval academy even though I went more than 20 years ago. People should realize that this isn’t a video of the difficult parts it shows the memorable parts that were great
Randomness, but what is the best way to become a navy helicopter pilot?
Depends on who you are
But honestly I don’t know I’m an Aeronautical engineer at Lockheed Martin
Also to be a Navy helicopter pilot you have to be not skilled enough to fly a planes
@@severity7672 not necessarily, your grades in navy flight school do matter somewhat but depending on the need of the navy their could be only a few or no Jet or heavy airplane billets available so you would have to choose helicopters
this makes me feel like im missing something and wasting my time atm
I feel that
relatable :/
Ikr... I'm just wasting my time with stupid game..
JustMe all the service academies are for the top 10% of the class
You are; Study.
Vet, enlisted sailor who worked at the Academy for 4 years.... this music lit.
Mac Milller was dope. May he rip
Y’all I’m bout to go to the naval academy in a week to be sworn in, wish me luck
Good luck
How’s it going so far?
My new standard video to show people when they ask "So what's the Naval Academy?" What a sweet project.
SAAMMEEE
Holy shit I know that kid on the far left kneeling down. 2:07 he went to my high school. Glad to see he’s doing well.
SO GLAD THIS IS BACK ON YT
SAME! I Just realised. What happened?
@@JohnSmith-dg3rd it got copyrighted and taken down
when you're a famous youtuber I can claim I was in the first 1k subscribers
Banger bro 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
I can claim first 3k
I claim just to be here
Meteor Photography I can claim to be your 217,054th sub
Dang, the military system is stepping up their recruitment game. TH-cam the best recruitment bait ever!
when the sports montage showed no swimming
*sad splishy boy noises"
It showed water polo
Oh boy that’s not swimming
Leo Schoenhofen hahah I kept waiting for the clip as well 😔
No sailing tho :((
I’m only 14 right now and I’m entering high school next year so I’m trying my hardest in hopes of getting into USNA and honestly this is really inspiring.
Error same man
Same but I’m trying to get into both Air Force and Naval Academy just want to be a fighter pilot.
Error same dude, i went for summer stem and it was so cool
Error I’m doing the same, but I’m a sophomore, so I can start trying to get in next year
Hephaestus me too, leaning more towards navy rn
Incredible editing! Thank you so much for the entertainment. I’m an Air Force veteran and was recruited by the USNA for tennis over a decade ago and this video almost made me regret not signing haha. I wish you so much luck and I’m constantly praying for each and every one of you 🙏🏾 Visiting the USNA today!
this is probably one of my favorite videos that i have witnessed on youtube.
4:00 to 6:25 was wayyyy too lit
Enlisted sailor over here just thinking “he likes zeppelin
This looks like high school tv shows with navy uniforms
All enlisted rolling our eyes
Why? (I'm just curious)
Mad respect for including footage of a wide variety of sports
The USNA seems like such a good school, too bad I'm not American
Sealy your country will definitely have a military post secondary institution that you can attend and achieve similar in.
Bruh
@@1anre nope my country does not even have a military
What country do you live in?
@@hagenvonhoffmeister7502 Hong Kong and given the political situation there is absolutely no way I would join the Chinese army
Enlisted Sailor watching this video like 🤨
Forreal, explains a lot.
Lol I'm in the army but I bet the enlisted sailor I'd like, "we didn't go through this bullshit no wonder these officers are soft" 😂😂😂😂
Like wish I tried harder in school
Daniel Noah Garcia enlisted marine feeling the same.... like wtf is this
This shows all of the fun parts though. There a lot of other things that weren’t videoed. Overall, four years of work with some relaxed points (the parts shown) seems to be able to prepare officers pretty well.
(Though to be honest, I would love to go through the USMC boot camp even if I get into USNA. I wish they had more than Leatherneck Training, which is four weeks.)
This is one of the most incredible videos I've seen!!
14:18 holy shit the guy in the middle is my underclassmen from high school. Did not know he would be in this video
The way how he edit it looks like a movie
I’m a freshman in high school and I visited the Academy last fall break and I wanna go so badly
Then bust your ass lol
seriously bust your as man. make sure you joining school clubs and make sure you are LEADING those school clubs or at least in some sort of leadership role. they look for a lot for that shit. score at least a 1400 on the sat, and be active in your community. playing a sport really helps as well. i wish you the best of luck man. I wish I knew more about it before I joined the Marines because I would have loved to go
Timothy Leighton idk why but that really gave me motivation
Set on getting into one of the academies for years now, and this video just makes me want it even more. The editing is insane in this video. Subscribing instantly.
i swear i watch this video at least 3 times every month.
This was SO awesome to see on my Monday morning suggested page. My husband is a grad and this made me so nostalgic of all the memories I have myself being able to experience so many awesome USNA events. It goes by so fast - enjoy all the memories you make.
This really gets everyone hyped up and it is absolutely crazy!
“First time home” *yoooo lets go to the trains tracks”
Actions unbecoming of a future Officer!
Your just jealous of him or something because your comment is something someone who didn't go to an academy would say.
@@margief1798 your delusional, you don't know anything of what the cadets go thru every day. Just because this video highlights the fun in going to an academy, doesn't mean they don't work harder than any other kid their age every day
Drewviewtv are you also speaking to me?
Drewviewtv are you saying I’m jealous?
Got that Hillsong Y&F!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Wow Elliott, Great job on the video! Thanks for taking the time to document your plebe year! Good luck on your youngster year and Go Navy Beat Army! - An USNA 2nd company Dad
Hey man im a candidate for the USNA and just wanted to say this video made me want to go there even more.
Same!
gl bro u need like a 3.7 gpa min if u wanna go there as a athlete if not it’s like a 3.9+
If you’re a star athlete false. My son is a football player at the Naval Academy and got in with all B’s and C’s, athletes are held to a much lower standard.
What's not shown is the part about hating your life but by all means someone's gotta do it
Severity : fuck u dad
This video is so good, I’m hoping I can get into this amazing academy one day!
Extremely well edited and the cinematography is amazing. Great freakn job
Why am I just now seeing this video. Underrated 🔥
Editing skills on point homie, see you out in the fleet
So this high quality content is created by someone with only 3,000 subs
some of the greatest editing I've seen in a very very long time, this is what I do and this is amazing. props to you Elliott!!!
This kept showing up in my recommended and I’m so glad I finally clicked because this is SO good.
this editing the memories and everything here was amazing
Coming from a West Point cadet, this is an awesome vid. That being said, go Army! Beat Navy! We'll kick a goat's ass any day.
Jacob Gilday Nah boi
Dammit I wish you guys would’ve beaten michigan. 1 field goal away...
Jacob Gilday 🤣🤣🤣
Go army
*laughs in 31-7*
Wow, the editing is amazing. Thank you TH-cam for suggesting it. Good job dude
First of all thank you for serving man! Second, holy f this video is epic and makes me think back on my college days. Enjoy it, it's the best 4 years imo.!
1:55 Did she just block a throw-in???
Yeah she wasn't playing lol
24 dislikes from army
Amazing cinematography, you’re so skilled in everything man, you’ll go far in life.
Outstanding stuff. And congratulations to you and your peers on being accepted to the Naval Academy.
ok someone tell me why i didn’t know that the navy and army had sports?!? 🧐
Caroline Crocker-Kozar I didn’t know this either especially as a Canadian but I can see why I mean it’s a great way to have fun and keep up your physical strength and maybe pick up more teamwork skills
These are military colleges playing each other not like the army vs Navy as a whole recruiting teams
Ruby Canadian military college has sports too, RMC paladins play Army West Point in hockey
Every cadet is an athlete :)
Caroline Crocker-Kozar ever heard of David Robinson?
It seems like US Academy is on another level compared to other countries
This man has a sick editor. XD
Thank you for your service superhero of tomorrow 💙🙏🇺🇸💙
Thank you so much for making this video. I’m a rising senior in highschool and it’s been my dream to go to the US Naval Academy. This film makes everyone feel so immersive to what life as a midshipmen is like at the USNA. Definitely motivates me more to keep pursuing my dream!
coming back to rewatch this.
hoping Sophomore year is coming out soon XD
Man, this is incredible, it's a like movie, congratulations bro!!
This video is amazing, everytime its pushing my more and more to naval academy
seaman college
Yo jt
Yo wassup
This made me wanna go there
Can't wait for the second year BANGER
This video was so good specially the beggining I had to watch this again
By the way whoever did the camera did very well on directing and doing shots nicee, I'm not a movie director but the way y'all did it makes it look hella good to get people hyped
This a dope video man making me wanna go there now
I used to work there. Midshipmen are a pain in the ass.
Amazing!!!
Crazy video man! Sick editing, big ups!!
this editing is actually insane. should have done something in video production instead of joining the navy lol.
CR7NEYMAR there’s video marketing jobs in the navy
I dont he think extra education for that though
YOUNG LIFE!
Someone mentioned the editing on this.... hell yeah!! This video is bad ass!!! Thank you for your service.
this video deserves way more views. so glad this popped up on my feed! Editing killer bro.
The academy is where they “convert” you
why does this seem like a movie
wow wow wow what an incredible video, thank you so much
I went to a rowing camp at the academy and tbh you guys have so much discipline it’s hella impressive!
I feel like god is trying to get me to join the navy. I’m joining the guard lol
So basically they whole school is just sport central🤭😂 looks amazing though 💁♀️
Subscribed FANTASTIC video :D congrats on your first year
That cut from 9:34 of the ball being thrown to the ball being caught is superb! Really shows your eye for editing. Amazing video, I'm sure you'll go places with your work. All the best :)
Hey great video any tips on how to get into the navel academy through cross country or track and field it would be great thanks
Hey! I was in Madison ward's squad at the summer stem you staffed. (We're still mad at you for attacking us with water balloons btw) Crazy how this ended up in my recommended haha. Hope you're doing well :)
Be proud of this, the editing is absolutely flawless
This is crazy bro, never seen anything like this. There’s definitely a market for high quality navy content like this, you keep it up and you’re gonna be doin real well on here.
First time I’ve ever subbed to a Channel after the first «random» video popped into my recommended feed.
Great work, loved the edit. Crossing my fingers that the rest of your uploads are as good as this one.
That’s awesome my brother is in pleabe summer right now GO NAVY BEAT ARMYYYY
Everything about this is amazing!
wow just speechless by the sick editing
Bro when I went to the naval academy I think I achieved two things...
- Slapping a peanut butter jar against my head.
- Breaking the soft serve machine.
Also I went there for summer stem, it was fly.
tooj I had the loudest high-pitched scream lmao. Are you going there next year?
@@BradenZukowski I was supposed to go this year but of course they canceled, I'm going next year absolutely.
tooj ah nice! I am class of 2024, so good luck to you! I went to NASS this past summer, and it was a blast! Stinks it was cancelled for this summer.
@@BradenZukowski Yep
Commenting just to say in here since 1k
The academy has been my goal for a long time, so thanks for making such a good video that captured all the great moments. It helped motivate me to work harder at getting in, even tho the acceptance rate is so low. Also your editing skill are way good keep it up 👍
Sick editing! Felt like I was watching a promotional video! Got me hyped!
