    In 2014, we had AT in Fort Bragg with a Army Petroleum unit that did NOT follow the tradition of letting their lower ranking personnel eat first. I’m sure most Army units follow tradition, but I can say from experience not all of them do.
    As for the negative comments labeling me as a POG reservist, I honestly don’t care... I don’t claim to be anything I’m not. I make these videos to inform others.- everyone is entitled to their own opinion and comments. But let’s try to keep this positive. As military members (reservists or active) we’re supposed to maintain a certain level of professionalism. Let’s not forget that when we’re making public comments on behalf of a UA-cam account :)

      What unit at Bragg was this? I was stationed at Bragg from 2008 til just last year when I got out. I'm still in NC too, decided to stay here. Every unit I was in or ever visited made name sure lower enlisted ate first because they needed more fuel and food first.

    • @SheldonLeeFit
      @SheldonLeeFit  7 років тому +1

      Rodney Horsley can’t remember but it was an Army Petroleum unit that trained with 6th ESB Marines at Bragg in summer of 14. Will never forget because they were responsible for bringing the fuel but that never happened for whatever reason so we (6th ESB) improvised and trained with water instead... they did bring the field shower facilities though! Didn’t even know that was a thing but I was sure thankful for those guys :)

    • @rodneyhorsley8601
      @rodneyhorsley8601 7 років тому +3

      Thats terrible, I never ran acrossed a unit or had a experience like that. I'm sorry they made the Army look bad, let alone being active duty.

    • @SheldonLeeFit
      @SheldonLeeFit  7 років тому +2

      Rodney Horsley it happens in every branch, unfortunately. It’s not just an Army thing. Some of the brightest and most dedicated people I’ve worked with were prior Soldiers. I didn’t mean to put down the Army with this one example, that’s my fault for not choosing my words more wisely. Thank you for your comment.

      @TechSportsLove 7 років тому +2

      In my eyes, it doesn't matter if you're active or reserve; because you are still a U.S. Marine. Semper Fi!

    I did two tours on active duty (1996-03) and never really thought about the reserve component. Thanks for opening up that world and letting us get a peek inside. Excellent video.

    hey bud im in the Army Reservist, just thought I'd let you know that in the Army our higher ups lookout for us too, like lower enlisted eating first. That's so crazy, I'm also a petroleum supply specialist.

    • @SheldonLeeFit
      @SheldonLeeFit  7 років тому +12

      mcguirej869 we did a joint training exercise with an Army unit and during chow it was first come, first serve for them. I was surprised because in Marine basic training, we're taught that we don't eat until our subordinates eat. Perhaps it varies by unit but I'm glad to hear that is enforced in the Army as well!

    • @mcguirej869
      @mcguirej869 7 років тому +3

      Sheldon Lee you might be right about that, because I've only been in two units and its been that way. Anyway if it's okay to ask, where is your unit? I think I've only seen one Marine reserve unit in Los Alamitos, CA.

    • @SheldonLeeFit
      @SheldonLeeFit  7 років тому +3

      mcguirej869 Delaware. It's a small unit next to the DE National Guard and Air National Guard. As far as Marine Reserves units go, I know they're not as many in a region since we're the smallest branch.

    • @mcguirej869

    4th LAR here, love the videos man. You take a lot of shit from active duty but any good SNCO I've met who've been on deployments, gotten CARs, and all that good shit don't see a difference in the title of United States Marine. I had a combat instructor in ITB who reminded everyone who bragged about being active (there were a lot of reservists in the training cycle) that our Secretary of Defense, Ret. Gen James Mattis, started out as a reservist. He also mentioned how he deployed with reservist Marines and trusted them with his life and could depend on them. Semper Fi.

    I’m doing 0311 Marine Reserves or Active duty 03xx but considering we’re not at war atm I’m leaning heavily toward reserves (and my reserve unit has had some recent Afghan deployments which I may get to go in). How does choosing your mos work for the reserves? I heard you could directly select a mos like 0311 instead of the field 03xx. How does choosing your mos work for the reserves? And what gear do you get from your reserve unit ? Such as plate carrier and backpack
    Also do you think I’ll have a problem getting 0311 for my reserve unit? I heard there has to be a slot open to get it. My reserve unit in my state is 1st Battalion 24th Marines Infantry Battalion. There’s 3 of the 5 companies in my state ( HQ & Service, Alpha and Charlie are in my state and the weapons and Bravo is in surrounding states). One of my fears of doing 03xx is getting selected to be something other than 11 or 31. 41 doesn’t interest me at all.

    if I don't want to ship DURING a college semester do I just join DEP? I don't want to take off a semester & not ship and waste my time, but I don't want to be shipped mid semester either.

      Obviously I don't care if I have to take time off but you know what I mean 😂

      The Army Belle so ship date actually depends on the MOS you decide. Some MOS have many open slots that need to be filled so ship date might be earlier, or another MOS might not have a slot until later. It's hard predict - I would contact a recruiter to find out what's available at the time. Hope that helps!

      Danthony Mitchell I did not study for it, but I was taking college courses at the time so I thought I was prepared enough. As a fresh hs graduate, I would study for it. 74 and above qualifies you for every single job in the military.

    I’m doing 0311 Marine Reserves or Active duty 03xx. How does choosing your mos work for the reserves? I heard you could directly select a field like 0311 instead of 03xx. And do you get gear from your unit?

    Can you expand a little bit on the EGA distribution to recruits after finishing crucible? We didn't have any of that when I was in. We didn't call it a crucible, we weren't issued EGA, only were considered a Marine after graduation, and we left that same day. No MCT after boot camp. Is this EGA that seems like somewhat large, is it symbolic? Is it wearable? Only EGA I remember was the one that went on our Mickey Mouse covers. And can I get one somewhere? I've posted some videos of Parris Island stuff, check it out.

    Are reserves and National Guard mostly older people that have been in active duty prior? I'm asking because I'm joining right after high school this year at 18 and want to hang with people my age. I may just go active if that's the case then go reserve when I'm older too.

      They are filled with all types of people from all walks of life. Rest assured, you will find that they are mostly interesting people with their own backstory and life story as to why they are doing what they do. If you want to join the military, however, you should be less concerned with hanging out with people your age and be more concerned if the people you are with will do their job right when 💩 gets real.

    Rah Corporal. Just wondering how promotions are done when trying to rank up to E-4. I’ll be home in a couple of month to check into my duty station and still kind of unsure. Any information would be great. Thank you.

    The video was great, but you need to do more research on other branches. Your format was great but your content had some key flaws that im sure other active duty like me and vets will notice. Just like my leaders say dont blow smoke and u wont get smoke. But great video man and keep it up i see u got a future in this.
