BEAST week was fun. I saw fun because my brother is in the Marines. Every time I thought "This sucks", I remembered my poor brother during the crucible. The Air Force has been kind to me so far, but I am part of the Coast Guard Aux, which is a unicorn in itself. So I am thankful every day that my current situation is a blessing. Semper Paratus and Fly, Fight, Win to those who are interested in the armed services here in the United States of America.
I really appreciate him putting into perspective why things are done in bootcamp. A lot of it can seem a bit pointless in the moment but if you take a wide look at why its done it makes a lot more sense
Damn, military brat current Air Force, looking into the Coast Guard. This video was DEFINITELY made for me 🤘 Edit: you'd be happy to know BEAST week wasn't taken away from AF basic, in fact it's the culminating week of training now with a challenge at the end called "the villiage"
Going from configuring and dealing with Sat's vs working on outboards is night and day. Hope this young man's experience and future with the CG are rewarding. Retired RM/TC sends.
Just watched the coast guard boot camp vid and wanted to know Do cc’s try to trick you with responding like with go away and carry on I know you don’t respond to carry on but if a cc says go away do you gotta respond aye aye petty offficer
Chris Gaffney only enlisted are Petty Officers. Commissioned officers are Sir and Ma’am; in the CG if you called a PO Sir or Ma’am OR called a commissioned officer “Petty Officer” you’d get your @$$ lit up faster than the 4th of July.
Was there sniper position? Pulling line? Getting beat? Passing sea bags? Ramp? Probation? rack inspections? Rocs? Getting it all day everyday, fire fire?
There is ramp, pronbation, and fire fire fire. Im don't think you get beat. Fire fire fire once in a while, or ifnyou did something wrong. Not sure about others. Hope I helped!
If you join the Air Force reserve and choose to do more work volunteering and potentially going on a deployment, are you still likely to be frowned upon by not doing the college thing even if you in the reserves? That was a shocker to me how they will tend to push that on you if you're not doing it being active. It definitely made me lean more towards the coast guard.
Artsy Pictures it depends on where you are stationed you could get BAS (which is a housing allowance), live on a cutter or get government leased housing.
When are the shipment dates? are they once a year, twice a year, every month? I plan on joining but dont want to leave till late august for basic training
Hey man I got a question! I qualify for the AF but I haven't met with a recruiter yet, they said they'll call me in 2 weeks can I smoke until then? Since they changed the rules?
You cannot stay in the station forever ,normally around 3-year-old 4 years you will get a pick list it might have units in the same state but it really depends but normally it will have a couple in the same state. U will transfer every 3 or 4 years.
no one ever leaves the Coast Guard to join another military service
Or the AF
@@youraveragejoe2 the Air Force is still pretty chill right ?
@@xxsilver_gamingxx389 yeah it is. I still have yet to work with a recruiter due to my work schedule.
@@youraveragejoe2 I’ve been deciding between Air Force and coast guard but I will think I will go af
@@xxsilver_gamingxx389 go for it. Coast guard is hard to get into but its quality of life is similar to the af

Thank you Brian. I try to provide as much information for those trying to make the choice, in hopes that they can make a better informed decision.
Great video! I have 2 weeks of leave coming up if you need to interview a Marine to Coastie.
Hey man, which one do you like more uscg or usmc?
We are awaiting for the second part.

Beast Week is certainly still happening as of September 2019.

How does housing work with the coast guard after boot camp, more specifically living on base or barracks?
Artsy Pictures it depends on where you are stationed you could get BAS (which is a housing allowance), live on a cutter or get government leased housing.
Artsy Pictures at what rank? Cuz I thought u can’t leave the barracks unless you’re an E3 or E4 right?
Ok so all this knowledge that he already knew going in to the coast guard where did he learn this? Like the basic knowledge?
When are the shipment dates? are they once a year, twice a year, every month? I plan on joining but dont want to leave till late august for basic training
nice, grammar.

Is it possible to stay at your first station forever or do you have to move to another state within three years?
You cannot stay in the station forever ,normally around 3-year-old 4 years you will get a pick list it might have units in the same state but it really depends but normally it will have a couple in the same state. U will transfer every 3 or 4 years.
How many years have you been in coast guard?
Late Response, many long 2 years late. As of now I have 8 years in now.
