Was both blessed and cursed to be in the 82nd. Some of the most motivated Jo's, but most of the time, they end up broke form all the unit runs and jumps. Also, we end up with ALOT of Ranger and SF wash outs, so yeah, everyone is at least motivated enough that they're all willing to try and go above and beyond.
The 82nd is a feeder unit for SF. You either go SF or ETS. Very few want to hang out there long because it will break you eventually. Either physically or mentally. I was there for a couple of years and I ain't been right since.
@@1chumley1 What an ironic tragedy that the same unit is both a feeder unit for Ranger and SF AND where all the Ranger and SF washouts go. I can picture both happening: being a young go getter wanting to be SF and seeing and talking to an SF washout. Also being an SF washout and meeting a kid that was once just like you before you failed. Just wow.
@@JavierCastillo-vc8ih It's interesting how Ranger Battalion guys also have a tough time getting selected for SF if they decide put in a packet. Even super squared away, tough Rangers are often not selected. Many of those who wash out are ready to turn right around and give it another shot. In my experience, company leadership is not always cooperative when it comes to putting in a SF packet, either. The 82nd has its own mission that they need their Joes to train for.
1AD is on a slow, slow, slow climb to getting better. The commanders are moving out and new chiller COs are coming in. But it'll take a few more years for anything to be noticeable outside the Division.
Been in 2CR for 4 years they belong squarely in D rank. Crams a 9 month training calendar into 2 months, denied a soldier going home from training for a miscarriage, always last minute changes to, couldn’t plan a birthday party etc
Was in 2CR RSS from 2019 to 2024, 4.5 years will pay my bonus plus more to go back. I am in Japan now and my job here absoultly destroys Japan for me and will pay insane money to go back to 2CR and parlay everything.
I was in 2cr from 2016 to 2019 before I pcsd to the 25th. Absolutely took my unit and leadership in 2cr for granted and was a great time. Legitimately loved all the training and field time.
7th ID Light at Ft Ord CA was an awesome base on Monterey Bay. They shut it down and moved to Ft Lewis wa. I don't do rain, so I went to 1st Cav. TX. Clint Eastwood was at Ft Ord, super chad post. We were a night unit and our patch and mascot were the black widow. Our recon goes deeper. We had 2nd Ranger bat and Air Assault school and RIP at Ft Ord. Lightfighter
I was in 2 BCT, 10th Mountain Division for 5 years till I ETS back in 2011. Deployed twice to Iraq during that time. Complete opposite of Upstate New York lol. You’re right, it’s closer to Canada than anything. Maybe 30 miles south of the Canadian border on Interstate 81. 10th Mountain was okay, but I was glad to get out. A whole lot of field exercises, plus go to NTC or JRTC between deployments. The road marches jacked up my knees and back too.
Okay Big Fat # 1 spot goes to: *(No, not the Red One, though They’re Cool)* Goes to every single OpFor, Counter, Aggressor, Robin Sage, ETC Truly some of the Vibiest and most necessary units
I served in both the 1st and 2nd IDs in the mid to late 70's and early 80's. We suffered from what I call the post-Vietnam slump. We got away with shit that we would have been shot for in earlier days.
Been in both, and I personally feel 173rd Is the better unit to be in, you can't go wrong with either but, 17rd consists of only 2 infantry battalions, this generally meant less details, and better organization, also you don't have to go to Fort Polk once every 18 months lol. However to OPs point, 82nd is much more likely to get deployed
Hey Danny check this out, I served in the 1st Ranger Bn when it was on Ft. Stewart, before we moved to HAAF in Savannah, then I PCS'd to the 1st Bn 509th Airborne in Vicenza Italy, I returned stateside to Ft. Campbell and lucked out into the Pathfinder Co, while it was still on jump status. I also spent 2 years instructing at the original Air Assault School, I then returned to Vicenza with the 4th Bn 325th Airborne, I retired E-8 with the 82nd, all 11-Bravo grunt time, the only " LEG" time I did was basic and ait at FT. Benning, Tabbed with 3 types of wings, CIB with star and 3 PH awards, INFANTRY ( RANGER) AIRBORNE all the way, I did all of that because my Drill Sarge in basic was 173rd in Vietnam and I wanted to be just like him !!!!
25th ID needs to be a Jungle unit the way 10th Mountain is a mountain unit. They will be vital in a Pacific conflict, and we all know how tough jungle warfare can be.
Funny how times and deployments change. I was in 1AD (2002-07). We had mission focus, good leadership, and most importantly we loved to dip Copenhagen and break shit, ha ha. Got a few buddies from Vicenza who were stationed there at the same time and they're SOLID! CHARLIE MIKE, Brother
I was in 10th mtn, back in early 2ks, deployed over and over! They're the most deployed unit in the military. I had a crazy ass squad leader from the 82nd too though! He made me write the NCO creed 1000 times because I talked shit about the chair borne strangers
10th MTN should be up there with 82nd and 101st. Most deployed during GWOT. Had amazing leaders with tons of awesome training. Some of it sucked but at very least I did a lot of scouting for deer and duck hunting. Awesome fishing but the night life sucked unless you went to Syracuse of Canada.
82nd Chairborne. Chair Mobile, Chair Assault, and when deployed out the back of a C-130 on a pallet with a word processor.....Low Altitude Chair Extraction (LACE).
3rd ID is truly a pathetic mess. The fattest soldiers I met were from there. Their brigade were the “hosts” (every div takes a turn) for our little post in Poland and they tried making other units learn their ridiculous “I wouldn’t give a bean to be a fancy pants marine” song, tried making us learn their history, and even put their little broken TV logo posted in all buildings. I had a feeling this is how they were and I was 100% right. Some units are just very predictable
I've been to 3ID for a few years and it is definitely just....a pathetic mess. The people are run into the ground by leadership, the barracks are some of the worst in the army, non existent dfacs, coming back from rotations to mold, a lot of suicide, rampant apathy and drinking culture. There is definitely a lot of thicc bois at 3ID, and I feel it's from having a dfac that is in shambles, crazy hours, depression and drinking, and that people just end up ordering food constantly because the dfacs are either not open, trash, or a combination of everything.
Pt.2 after most of my buddies either quit or go awol(one is still in Mexico hiding), I ran a ton and secured a spot in airborne school. Went to 82nd, Panther brigade, 1/505PIR. I show up while my platoon in the field. They bring me out there and I’m in my Marne Standard(knee pads, elbow, eye pro, ear pro, full battle rattle…) I show up and feel like an idiot. In five minutes I lost my helmet, im in my pc. lost my blouse, slick iotv(no side plates) over T. Unblouse my pants, no knee or elbow pads. Big boy rules out here. I loved it there! Yes, we still had bad days but after my time with Tird ID I learned how to love what others hated. Looking back I loved both of my units. I miss my friends. It was best time of my life. There was no better feeling than coming back from the field after two weeks chugging a monster, cleaning guns, Bradley’s, turning in sensitive items and passing out drunk in the barracks…
1st, thanks for your service and making this vid. 2d, F-you 101 is S tier because Rakkasans are a thing lol. 3d, love you all, porch light is always on, gueat room always made up. Ill always be in awe of the fact that I served in an Army with Titans like yall!
2nd ID has a great balance of awesome duty stations and not super hoah unit. Korea was amazing. 2nd Cav Rgt in Germany, not the best part of Germany but still being in Europe is also great. Assuming you’re interested in travel. I care more about duty station then unit. Something is always gonna suck about the unit, and you’re always gonna hear someone say how great it was at their last unit. I focus on what I can do away from the unit, for fun, food, travel. That’s what guided my decisions in duty station.
Couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole video! Great job! I served with the 25th ID (L), 199th INF. Brigade (MTZ), 2nd ID (S. Korea, twice), 101st Airborne (AIR ASSAULT!!!), USAREC (US Army Recruiting Command (U SUCK!) & 2/29th INF. (Inf. Instructor, FT. Benning, GA). Some were good, some were not.
4ID Alumni from 2021. Got there in 2017. When I first showed up it was an amazing place. We had a really good deployment for infantry dudes, great leadership and awesome training. 2021 this all flipped completely. The post and area are fucking amazing but the people in the unit and around the springs can make or break your experience.
For me I agreed 173rd is great if your not in Germany there’s the 191 and 4319 one a cav the other is a artillery unit also being support is were the problems happen since the BSB is in Italy they won’t get the same amount of help
I think I may just be a young and dumb but 82nd is where I’m at right now 11B 3BCT and I think I wanna actually try out Geronimo for my next contract. 82nd has been good to me though. Got some good training here, made good friends, grew up a little bit. I just want more field experience and I think Geronimo will be able to provide that.
Pt.1. I was in both Mech unit and Airborne. Three contracts and two deployments. I hated time in the Mech world, but the unit was legit and had alot of history. 3 brigade of Tird ID. Baker Boyz(step kids abandoned at benning), the Audie Murphy company. we were also known as cocaine company… There was two hollywood movies made about my company “To hell and back” about ww2 exploits of Audie Murphy, and “In the valley of Ellah” with Tommy Lee Jones and Charlize Theron. In late 2003 a bunch of our dudes murdered one of their own and made a mess… Hollywood decided to make a movie about it and it was one of the first films that talked about PTSD. My time there was rough. Marne standard and endless smoke sessions mixed with 15 minutes prior to 15 minutes prior. Getting released daily after 18hundo or later…
Solid ass video , pretty accurate 1AD horrible place just throwing that out there. Officers so scared to speak up when they know damn well they out rank the CSM bitching ab the dirt on the line . What the hell is the ranking system for anymore in todays army
I was Army back in the 70s and 80s. Thought I knew my units and their locations. Not any more. I was totally lost watching this. Every division is out of place by my reckoning.
I served with 2ID in Korea, and the 82nd ABN in Iraq. I loved the tier list and was laughing at the good-natured roasting of units and locations the whole time. Only one omission, though: USASOC is S-Tier. My time with an SF Group was more awesome than the rest combined
3rd ID is close to Savannah Ga and Jacksonville Fl for libo runs. The climate is pretty livable at Fort Stewart all year around. Plus moto Rock of the Marne in World War 1 and Audie Murphy in WW 2 Bro. Thunder Runs through Baghdad Iraq in the Operation Iraqi Liberation (OIL) too. You definitely underrated the Dog Faced soldiers.
Nah, this take is wild. "Climate is pretty livable all year round at Fort Stewart", if swampass, mold, and sweating the second you go outside is livable, idk lol. I don't really know a single person in 3ID who isn't just run down into the ground by the unit. Maybe years ago it was nice, but definitely not now. Savannah and being close to Florida is pretty nice though.
4th ID was amazing when it was at Ft Hood. 101st Fair. 10th Mtn sucks. 82nd standards and discipline. Ft Bliss and the area around has improved dramatically over the years. You nailed Ft Polk.
82nd is both S tier and D tier. On the one hand the training you will get is among the best in "Big Army." That said Fayetteville is called Fayettnam for a reason.
I guess you aren't a GWOT veteran. 1st ID and 4th ID were one of the best units during OIF/OEF. 1st ID was so good in Afghanistan and Iraq especially 3rd and 4th Brigade Combat Teams. 1-26 Infantry Blue Spaders were so good they were integrated into 101st and I believe they are in 1st Brigade 101st now. 2-16 Infantry and 1-28 Infantry were from 4th Brigade. those guys were hot shit during the 2007 surge.
@@RoboDanny yeah place is all show. Great place ,however, the leadership cared more for the image over the functionality of the organization. Not saying every leader was bad, had great leaders while I was there. But once they left, I learned real quick.
Was in 4th ID. Would also rate it as a C. It became worse and worse as time went on. Best time was the 2000s but once the 2010s hit it got massively gay. And once it went all mech, gay.
4th ID shut down restrepo. They were in the korengal. 4th ID is so slept on but tbf they don’t promote their history and I think they do it because if everyone knew how sick Colorado Springs USED to be it would just get overwhelmed. We got to do a lot of stuff with 10th group too and that was always fun. Leadership is absolutely abysmal though for sure.
I think I may just be a young and dumb but 82nd is where I’m at right now 11B 3BCT and I think I wanna actually try out Geronimo for my next contract. 82nd has been good to me though. Got some good training here, made good friends, grew up a little bit. I just want more field experience and I think Geronimo will be able to provide that.

82nd is both S tier and D tier. On the one hand the training you will get is among the best in "Big Army." That said Fayetteville is called Fayettnam for a reason.
What if he went by brigade? Would every unit have a contestant in C or D?
Dam, Dude put all the 1s at the bottom
How sensitive is this scaling
I was around 2ID my whole career there is a reason they are c tier!
I guess you aren't a GWOT veteran. 1st ID and 4th ID were one of the best units during OIF/OEF. 1st ID was so good in Afghanistan and Iraq especially 3rd and 4th Brigade Combat Teams. 1-26 Infantry Blue Spaders were so good they were integrated into 101st and I believe they are in 1st Brigade 101st now.
2-16 Infantry and 1-28 Infantry were from 4th Brigade. those guys were hot shit during the 2007 surge.
Campbell is not a W. You have been lied to. Then again, we did have CSM Knapp.
Dang for real?! It's crazy cause I had orders for 101st twice. Always ended up somewhere else though.
@@RoboDanny yeah place is all show. Great place ,however, the leadership cared more for the image over the functionality of the organization. Not saying every leader was bad, had great leaders while I was there. But once they left, I learned real quick.
You're dam right 173rd is the best.
Figured the 75th Ragers would be S tier.
Ay, boutta start at 509th next week! Good to be back home tbh.
Where the Rangers at?
3rd ID here
Broken Tv patch
2d ACR Germany and the Gulf.
25th ID 1-27 gang
101 should be D. Bunch of horrible leadership
Looks like you missed the war completely, huh?
Today’s Army is completely unrecognizable.
How u get to join many units?
Glucking lawn darts. Bro pull your lips off😂
Was in 4th ID. Would also rate it as a C. It became worse and worse as time went on. Best time was the 2000s but once the 2010s hit it got massively gay. And once it went all mech, gay.
1st Cav is so bad they didn’t even make the list. Lol
1st ID did have some douchebag soldiers when I was there!
I thought psy ops were the best combat unit
no 2CR aww man
Nah bro, ft Campbell is a shithole.
15th Signal Corps is the best, we do nothing 😊
3rd id took Iraq 2003
I was 10th MNT 2002-2004 (Iraq) Brokeback MNT? LOL LOL LOL
Welp
Spill the beans!
4th ID shut down restrepo. They were in the korengal. 4th ID is so slept on but tbf they don’t promote their history and I think they do it because if everyone knew how sick Colorado Springs USED to be it would just get overwhelmed. We got to do a lot of stuff with 10th group too and that was always fun.
Leadership is absolutely abysmal though for sure.
H-Minus 🐈⬛🐈⬛
H-minus
No cav 😓😂
God loves you come to him and repent
Any marine unit tops lmao
2ID back in the 80s was great, good training, real world mission. Don’t forget the Ville!
I think I may just be a young and dumb but 82nd is where I’m at right now 11B 3BCT and I think I wanna actually try out Geronimo for my next contract. 82nd has been good to me though. Got some good training here, made good friends, grew up a little bit. I just want more field experience and I think Geronimo will be able to provide that.
