hell yeah man I'm an American but my Grandfather is from Hungary I hope to visit someday. My grandfather was in the US Army from 60-63 after he left Hungary in 56.

You still earn the badge. Doesn't matter where from. Just like air assault.

Colin G it’s ok, most of them aren’t smart enough or disciplined enough to earn the pathfinder badge anyway

@@seanhk9359 Probably not even smart enough for ASVAB.

I'd ask for your money back.

To be honest, many will take the course to add to their personal resumes and receive promotion points to get promoted to higher ranks with more authority like senior NCOs or mid level officers in the career fields of infantry, special forces, etc.

It’s a huge part of air assault infantry. Pathfinder insertion was a major initial component of any air assault mission during training 94-98 in an assault Blackhawk battalion. Pathfinders were really essential to our mission set.

Same! Do a fucking Ranger Roll or Box that shit. But don’t just slap it on your Noggin. Well fuck the SSG after her wasn’t much better. Must be lesson number one in Pathfinder School. “ How to fix your cover so it annoys everyone around you”.

I believe She's reservist national guard, I don't think either of them are active duty. If you were active duty and wore your cover like that in any branch, there would be some pay out

Sapper T the whole point is that you’re NOT supposed to shape it. You literally are supposed to just slap it on your head.

@@JP-wk7cc are you enlisted?? In basic they teach you this. Always be squared up

Have your ur uniform perfectly placed

lol

Wrong. I watched a SSG who ran a drop zone and wasnt Jump master qualified. This was out of 20th SFG(A)

@@jrr7031 "BY THE BOOK"... he shouldn't be running personnel drop zones. SF does things their way. I left SFQC in 1989 as a single parent. in 1991, I was a Blackhat, teaching BAC, Jumpmaster and Pathfinder. Several cadre I knew from JFKSWC showed up as students in Jumpmaster Course at Fort Benning. All of them had thrown me outta aircraft and had ran drop zones for the course. They admitted that they had only been shown how to do the duties, but had never been thru the course before.

@Raymond Inabnitt ah... yea thats the problem im running into. I got "the training" but, since i dont have any official coursework...That means I am unqualified.

Got news for you, the Pathfinders have landed, recon'd and set up the DZ/LZ panels long before a jumpmaster has been assigned an aircraft.

Pathfinders act as infiltrators/scouts, whose main job is to scout for, and prepare drop zones for troops or equipment. There is a ton of topographical details and math. This is without a doubt a combat arms position, and I've always considered one to be "elite."

@@bradleydixon9147 I always thought of the role more a a "mountain man" type of job.... as historically, pathfinders operated like sniper teams did, in 2 man teams by themselves. Now however they receive much more support, so the skill requirements can be divided up among as many as 6 or so people. In that case, yes.

That’s what the school is all about. Finding appropriate drop zones, preparing everything for the insertion of airborne troops and equipment, and controlling the drop as it is happening by communicating with the aviators and battlefield commanders.

Thank you for your support brother.

Go back Iraq

@@jsamuel251 why?

It’s killing me

D.B. Allen that's how most LTs act lol.

D.B. Allen She doesn't Inspire respect and Authority. Every soldier will see her just like a girl not like an officer.

"back in my day" headass

@@alejandrofernandezconcha4530 actually, I served with her. She has respect and authority.

Corek BleedingHollow Yes, but can she lead???

Simp

that's a sharp case right there mate lol jk

W.Howard BANJO yes but just more in depth

Barely

AAS is 10 days Pathfinder is 3 weeks

pathfinder is wayyyyy harder than air assault school. its not even in the same league. pathfinder is more mentally challenging, air assault is physical.

But less physical. More mental. And a lot more test. No useless long rucking.

Do you realize how important pathfinder is?

That’s BS...standards are the same.

See: Army Mountain Warfare School

You have no evidence to back up your claims. Stop disrespecting the Army NG component. You realize those instructors are full time right?

J Brown shut up, nerd

riphaven NO ONE BUT YOU CARES

riphaven - you need to review AR-670-1 and refer yourself to the wear of the soft cap or patrol cap. She is absolutely wearing that soft cap according to regulation. It is not dirty, it is not rolled or blocked, it fits her head, it is sitting on her head "squarely" and is parallel to the ground, her rank is appropriately positioned, the bill of the soft cap is appropriately curved, her soft cap is not bleached nor is it starched. Her hair is cut so as to not show bulging under the soft cap. So you've made yourself look like an idiot - and yes, I did serve in the Army for 10 years - - do NOT attempt to claim that I don't know what I'm talking about. Trust me, I do! That is all - now you go find something else to do - - move along.

gary must be a POG.

So, who are you? Because I don't know you nor do you know me! Even if I were what you call a POG, reading and understanding regulations has no limit on what MOS one is or isn't. For the record douche-Brown, I'm a former 11B, then went on to be 95B - so no, I wasn't a POG!

oh, you were an MP, that explains why you don't know how to were headgear. So you were infantry but transferred to POG-ville

Woman have been able to go through pathfinder school for a while now numbnuts.

you sound ignorant

Zachary Frank well if ignorant is truthful then I'm ignorant as fuck. You sound uneducated. You obviously haven't been to combat and have no idea what is needed over there

Right Wing Extremist the standards are not lower...idk when u was in the army but there prob the same as they was then as they are no...your gender shouldn’t an issue no matter what course or school you attend in the military....its your work efforts. I’m sorry some female somewhere beat you at something and you felt cheated...

Zachary Frank no female beat me anywhere, I was a real soldier a grunt we thankfully didn't have any females in that MOS. Yes standards are lowered when women come in. If women are so equal to men then why does the military gave different pt standards for women (which are easier)? It destroys morale cause many men believe it is unfair. Women can serve as nurses or admin but not in combat roles. I remember on my two combat tours that war doesn't have a place for women, it's tough enough on men. You just don't understand it because you believe in this diversity crap

That’s some real latrine graffiti wisdom

Anyone who isn't scared in combat is full of sh*t.

Imagine not knowing what anxiety is

@@user-nn4gk5tc9q 😂😂😂😂😂😂 bro your comment killed me 💯

@@user-nn4gk5tc9q he dead ass watched a motivational video before commenting this LMFAO

It's a patrol cap guy and it's within regulation
