Sorry to hear

What happened to him?:(

Gone but never forgotten

@@markwallice4912 he took his own life unfortunately

@@aaronshank4166makes me rethink about enlisting in the army now, Jesus

What happened to Raines?

Thought they were paid actors/models for a sec and then I was like wait these are AIT students 🤯

What was the hardest part of phase one for you?

At Fort Lee, I met a poor woman that was in the middle of her AIT, was injured, and forcibly reclassed to being a COOK of all things!

@@michaelalvarez1026 I would say the mental aspect of it. You’ll only get 4-5 hours of sleep a night due to hw.

B 169 EN BN?

You made it too phase 2 yet?

Was 92r worth it? I am looking at that rn

@@ryderhendry9351 no.

Which M.O.S. if may ask?

What’s the age limit?

@@varcity23 Navy Divers, 30. They may take exceptions as is needed but don't bet on it.

That's dumb asf

@@Undertaker93 Yeah, but it is what it is. There's a lot of things you can't do past 30 in the Navy.

why haven't u done it

Yeah for an underrated community these mfs train hard.

Man, I'm sorry to hear that, can you at least change back at some point ?

@@TheFoxyPlayer I was medically discharged after refusing the med board 2 times. On the third time (they did it every 3 months when my injuries got too bad for me to go to the range anymore) the brigade surgeon told me he has never had a soldier refuse a med board (first step to medical discharge) and told me to sit on a mountain (we had one right next to the hospital) and ask myself why I’m still doing this, come back to him with an answer. I accepted the med board and was promptly discharged, about 2 years after diver selection. I did my best. I bought in way too hard to the whole “it isn’t training until it hurts” type of mindset. Stupid. It really messed me up for a couple years, baker acted and all that. Luckily for me, my local VA saved my life. I have now a wonderful wife and kid, and a new purpose. But every time I see anything that reminds me of diver my soul is crushed. I can’t even surf anymore. I was a hurricane surf chaser for 10 years before i went to selection. So much lost. But of course I know, many people lost much more.

did you go in around july 2013? we had a guy that got injured and got auto DOR'd

@@healsohard2090 no. Summer 2013 was mostly 2nd LTs doing phase one right?

not 1 officer just fresh out of boot camp most if not all from 35th eng battalion basic then straight into it

You have have be an engineer 2LT at EBOLC during the August/September to try out. The selection process is rigorous. By the end of the pool day, less than 10 will remain out of 30+. Those 10 will be interviewed to select the most qualified candidates for phase 1 and 2.

They don't show all the training... As well as additional training at their units

You watched a four minute video and now you want to compare penis size? Snorkeling with tourists doesn’t even come close to what these guys have to do.

You mean promote, and yes for the most part it is until E6.

@Tanner Bender okay

@Tanner Bender okay

@@mcbins1993 okay

MC BINS!? Where you been brother

@Tanner Bender why do this though?

Were you born that stupid or did something happen to you

Hasn't happened....and probably won't happen...deep sea

US army divers are trained to fight enemy divers, it isn't shown here but they do a lot of underwater reconnaissance in places where the army is operating (rivers, lakes, and sometimes oceans) and sometimes work with SF Combat divers. No, they do not just use a knives. When doing beach and river recon (Pretty much SEAL and SF Combat diver territory) they'll be equipped with what an infantryman uses plus a swim suit.
