Being a PJ ain’t no joke. I have so much respect for them. They should get as much recognition as SEALs too.
Silent Warriors! The Air Force doesn’t promote their missions to the world!
@@speedracer2336 SEALs have lost the title of silent professional, each one of them be trying to right a book when they get out.
@@sayinwat6768 well said!
@MealTeam6 no physics required to understand my answer
@@donjon123you act like the minority of SEALs writing books tarnishes their name. They are still more of a man that you will ever be
These guys are absolute hero's.
Thank you, coming from a future vet!
Everyone will be screaming to death from conflict, food shortages, disease, and extreme weather by the end of this decade. The US air force will not protect you. They are pansies for not addressing the climate crisis which is an existential threat to humanity and instead focusing on uniting us as a species. You are clearly delusional. Don't Look Up!
Honestly PJs are glorified EMT. Idk why they even hold weapons when they won’t use them lol
@@jayluvceo lol thank me for my future service.
@@FizzleWick1 how's the weather in Beijing tonight? Here in Cali we're expecting flash floods.
I’m currently studying for my GED to get into the Air Force and become a PJ. I have not underestimated this job and have full disclosure that this is one of the most mentally and physically demanding jobs in the military. I will get there one day, and if I don’t make it at least I can say that I tried !!!
Have you been in contact with your area Special Warfare recruiter?

I met a couple of PJs once. It was like seeing a rock star, because you rarely see them. Talk about down-to-earth guys.
Loved the series Inside Combat Rescue. An amazing crew of brave men, our country is blessed to have them.
That is great ! I bought the DVD. 👍🇺🇸
The US Air Force is renowned for its innovation and technological advancements. Their research and development have led to breakthroughs in the aerospace industry, pushing the boundaries of what is possible.Greetings From Gjakova

my uncle was Pararescue and served in Vietnam, he is no longer with us but never forgotten.
I worked medical materiel in the Air Force and the PJ's would come in to order supplies and no questions asked they wanted it they got it, very cool calm group of men!
Enlisted in 1964 foe Para; took my flight physical in 1965. Their mission has changed drastically.
This is straight up the ultimate navy seal but better because your job is to save lives in a battle field.
PJs are amazing, they can do everything
Thank you Usa Air Force
The best! The bravest! And few no anything about them! 👍👍❤️❤️
There’s literally 140-200 Air Force PJs, the pipeline is very strict and there’s a 99% chance you won’t get a slot. Not bc you aren’t physically or mentally qualified, but because their pipeline is already full.
Isn’t it a critically manned career field. Idk about that. It is hard but the number of qualified candidates is plummeting. Then again maybe that was more a problem for the green berets since they have a much larger number of special forces they need to maintain.
@@Sanfu69there’s a little over 10,000 SF qualified Army service members, less than 200 PJs. I know there’s also less than 30 CRO’s in the Airforce too (Officer’s who are PJ qualified). What changes things now is that you can’t choose to be a PJ, you have to enter the AF special warfare pipeline as an 9T500 (Special Warfare Candidate) you don’t get to choose what specific job you want PRIOR to enlistment anymore. You go through the Special Warfare selection process and then you are assigned to a pipeline based on what’s available and your performance in the selection.
@@MrZachgonz I see. That’s crazy. Thanks for the reply. I’m active duty now and have been training so I can cross-train sometime down the road before my contract ends so this is something of considerable importance to me. I guess even not getting PJ just getting any one of those SW jobs I’d be glad to have and be in the community.
>500, including guard and reserves.
@@Sanfu69 best of luck to you bro, I hope you can make your dreams happen!!
I think it’s incredible what these men do. I wanted to do this in the past but I realized I couldn’t because I’m a woman but still a huge props to these people ❤
@taxevader1549 Since 2016 women can apply for special warfare careers if qualified.

It's humbling to watch and listen to these men. Such incredible people, whom I will forever have immense respect for. Yah bless you all.
“They wanna make sure they don’t make the same mistake twice… But they do happen a lot especially with the newer guys. We get new guys on the team who never seem to have worked before and we’re able to now somewhat mentor them into getting better.”
Aim High! 🇺🇸
I can’t wait for the chance to be one of them 13 now and can’t wait until I’m 17!
Awesome ambition man! If you want a better chance. Get a GED (from completing high school) and get a college degree in a medical field. Such as medicine, or something health related.
Thanks
When people think Special Forces the Air Force never comes to mind. But the PJs ARE elite and there to save lives and they do it so well. AF Combat Controllers are very badass too!!
They keep a low profile, other spec ops units across all services definitely know who they are!
I had the courage to detox to join the navy, but seeing my potential from exercising I have the heart to try to be a PJ studying my asvab currently, god bliss n god speed
check out Khan Academy to work on your basic math.
Detox from what?
God grant them all incredible wisdom & knowledge for such an incredible mission.
PJs, because even MARSOC, Navy SEALs, Rangers, Green Berets, etc. need to call 911 sometimes.
Being a PJ is extremely difficult. Not just passing the training pipeline which has a very high fail rate but also maintaining and improving so many different skill sets (and that's not even including medical skills yet).
They call it Superman School for a reason.
A great description of what's involved in pararescue teams may be found in the riveting book and true story, The Perfect Storm.
Legends, angels on earth
Was on an exercise with PJs in the early 80s. If my now old gray wrinkled butt ever gets in a real jam, I hope these studs are there to help.
Aim High Fly Fight Win🫡 🇺🇸
I love the PJs
All of this are amazing, those guys are doing such an important job, they risk their own life to rescue others.
I'm making a stilization of PJ kit setup and I've got a little question, does 58th rescue squadron belongs to PJ's, are they PJ's or something else? Also are they using m4a1 block 2, but most important is the first question!
Keep doing what you doing guys, you are outstanding!

I Agree!! ❤ 🇺🇸
¡Es un vídeo muy interesante y me encanta mucho gracias!👍😊
Had I known this career field even existed back in 2004 when I got out of the Marine Corps I would have went straight to the AF recruiter and joined immediately. Unfortunately I didn’t find out about them until after my 39th birthday.
Good news! Enlistment has been extended to age 42 bro!!!

I've been trying to talk for several years now to get my son into the Air Force. Last couple years, Space Force
"They're going to need some BAMs up there too son"
He put a project together for NASA that actually went up to the space station in highschool
He had an interest in the Air Force, but I'm afraid that's long since passed 😔

What coating does the US military use on their eye protection so they don't fog up, and why isn't that being sold to all of us?

The PJs might be “tough” but they’re not warriors like the Rangers or Navy SEALs are.
What do they do after all the training?
It is said that they steal a man from the Devil.

i’m about 7 months from graduating high school
what should i be doing now to prepare?
Sam, recommend you contact a recruiter now. If qualified you can join at age 17 with parental consent during your junior or senior year in high school as part of The Air Force Ambassador Program and enter the Delayed Entry Program (DEP). However, you will not go to Basic Military Training (BMT) until after you graduate high school.
What is your age and zip code?

I’m from Jamaica and I want to be a PJ.
To join the Air Force, you must live in the United States or an area that has an AF recruiter. You must also possess a 10 Green Card with over 2 years remaining prior to the expiration date to join if you are not a US citizen. For Space Force, members must be a US Citizen to be eligible to join. Applicants must be between 17 and 42; meet the mental, moral, and physical standards for enlistment; and must speak, read, and write English fluently.
The Air Force and Space Force does not bring applicants to the US to join unless there is an AF/USSF recruiting office or Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) to process through. You must complete all immigration processing and get to the United States legally on your own. The AF does not help.

An interview can be found on Reasons We Serve with a Pararescue Specialist ua-cam.com/video/t2ocmRvYfFI/v-deo.html.
I think you need to think, not only about the location of the military unit of the Space Forces. And most importantly, help everyone who supports US leadership in space. This is an important priority👆🛰
