Kapooka was awesome!. It's probably like stepping into North Korea and being part of a dictatorship that you will most likely never experience again, unless you get thrown in the slammer. Taking a dump at 4am religiously is the only time you will get on your own to do this at your own pace and enjoy the peace. It gets easier after about 2-3 weeks when you work out what is actually going on with the routine. Cas is a wealth of knowledge and I watched his videos before I went through, keep an open mind and learn to adapt and fit in. Be proud as a vast amount of willing candidates never get the opportunity of being given the chance to be arseholed. Good luck and keep up the good work Cas....
Dave great comments and yep solo love life is normally on a shitter sounds filthy but you’ll understand if you go through Kapooka lol What are you waiting for..
Ladies and gentlemen I’m finally an Australian citizen, hopefully some time soon I’ll be prepared enough for kapooka, following in your footsteps, Thank you Cas for the guidance.
Simmo mate if someone has to get their pack carried that’s a fail in my book back squad straight up. It’s not like it’s a team activity just to make it through it’s a career if you can’t carry your own shit what happens when you go over seas for 6 months or a year can someone carry my shit I’ve never been able too sorry...
Mad Dog Morgan your an 11 Platoon Lad too there you go, I still remember those fluro lights flickering at exactly 0600 before the Hallway 11 I hated it..
Jason Bridges mate I’ll leave that to some less experienced channels sorry it’s just not enough to make a video on mate but I can mention some points on it next stream Deal....
Hey cas enlisted today, gotta say thanks for all the great vids for getting me motivated to go into the Australian infantry can’t wait, keep up the great work!
Well done Son wish I had that advice before I joined soooo long ago. You summed it up beautifully, I was a flabby unco 17 year old but had a great attitude and Marched out with the now obsolete "Most Improved Recruit trophy" 21 Plt C Company 1982. No one can take that away from me.
Thanks cas I enjoy your videos on Kapooka. I am not a recruit or staff member of the defence force but work with a contractor in the recruits mess and delivering meal around base and I am starting respect what you have to go through during training. Thank you all for you service and cas keep the video coming mate
Good to hear Matty and mate have a laugh at the sorry souls in winter for me mate it was 30 years ago for me but remember the mess like yesterday Sir eating quickly like your hiding evidence lol. Bloody cold this time of year Hey...
Hallway 11 for me it’s a PTSD all of its own.. The flickering of the fluro light before the day started with a bang 6am-2200 a just a little less than Elon Musk’s daily work day..
man I had it all backward. I have been looking for people who are willing to go at the pace of the slowest until they catch up for the last 20 years. I thought Kapooka was the last place I would find it.
JR well done mate you should come over to Patreon and join the Legion so we can have a chat while your in a Kapooka I need a spy lol We have a few joining on the 3rd mate.. How’s mum and dad feel about you enlisting
Mate that’s the difference between civilians and military mateship means helping and protecting even elevating those you don’t like above yourself.. Mateship is different to friendship and if you have both your rockin..
G'day Cas, I just marched out yesterday as a chocco, I'm home today back in perth Thanks for your advice mate, love you buddy! Remember guys, help your mates out and they'll help you out when you need it, don't be selfish, work for the team! 2 Section, 33 Platoon, Delta Coy March 2020
CAS I’m headed off on the 24th of March would love to hear from you! Your words are more then you could know! Been training for 18 months (pushing hard) Would be happy to chat about some of hurdles you’ve faced! Been here since 800 subs Duty First!, thanks again Shannon.
Hey Shannon, great news mate your about to be on your way mate it's a scary time the fear of something new, failure to yourself , team or family or even just the unknown. The Army thinks your ready made which is a good thing you need to look at withdrawing from work and spending some bonding time with your family and friends without getting yourself into the shit before you go. I will be streaming tonight our internet was down yeasterday and wouldn't let me go online last night for some reason. Can you text me on 0410637014 Shannona and i will find some time to have a chat mate cool
@@ChickenLittle2323 great news for both of you and great timing on top enjoy the last couple of days with family and I will be streaming today to give 24 Platoon their callout so to speak Hallway 24 platoon get used to it..
The only way you fail is quitting. Injuries or whatever you can still comeback or fail a gate course you still get backdrafted. Quitting is the only way to fail. Saw a guy who kept getting back drafted but never gave up and now marching out. Also winter does suck because it rains forever and your skin splits, it messes with your slouch when wet, so much ironing. And you will get wet muddy and uncomfortable. But like they all say ain’t training if not raining
New subscriber. Considering the service. Want to be assigned to the military police section. Inspired because I recently obtained a security licence. Researching and preparing myself as much as I can before I make the decision. Thanks.
Hey mate just saw your message consider joining Patreon so we can chat over your MP choice I have some information that we should chat about one on one over the Bat Phone to clarify things...
nick 2 yeah mate, search Commandos on UA-cam and there is a full documentary on it mate- its a good watch, make sure that’s what you wanna do 100% cause that shit is full on
Finnish school and do your best....Stay till grade 12 Get a part time job for some life experience. Don't get in trouble with the law, don't do drugs. Do research on the ADF Roles that you are interested in. Watch all of Cas's Vids. Stay fit n healthy.....stay focused on the end goal. Join the Regs first, do your time there and then decide if 2 CDO is what you really want.... Best of luck in your future endeavours young man :-)
I've got my asessment day in 2 weeks. Hopefully I pass that and the fitness test (having difficulty with the beep test) and I'll get to Kapooka. Thanks for all the advice Cas. I'm a bit daunted by only having one time after dinner to use the toilet though. A man can only hold it for so long.
Lachlan Steain don’t think so mate I think I’m pretty much the only LEGAL Australian Army channel mate and it’s not because I’m special it’s because your not allowed to have one while serving in either reserves or regular

Mate so far there are at least 6 of you going in on the same day from the channel with likely more to go on the list not long now you codger lol Winter is gunna bite you hard old mate.

Hi cas my father who is a Vietnam vet would love to have a talk with you sometime … is there anyway we could arrange a phone talk sometime … my father is very pleased in how you describe n demostartate the army infantry way … please get back to me ASAP
I wonder if the training staff still give the approx time the Duty officer will be doing the night bed check / Bad dream whimpers and sobbing, "Have a bad dream Recruit"?? It was only given by your loving section to those showing minimum effort and or unmotivated Effort. To be part of something Way more important. There Is no hiding or bringing your buddies down with constant negativity as everyone is watching and listening especially when they hear Right wheel and we will pick up Rec ....... on our way passed up the hill AGAIN, LMAO!!! The path you volunteered for!! You joined them, they didn't join you!! So stand proud go hard, if not harder I survived and 1000's before me. March out an Australian Soldier knowing you earned your day on the Parade Ground!! We on the channel want you to be your best and Pass! 👍😎🇦🇺 (Great video, Cas I hope it gives, all taking responsibility for there future. The mindset of a winner)
Physically I want to be light on my feet, to be as agile as I can be and have quick reflexes. Mentally I want my character and actions to shine.

Hello, I’m 16 and 6 months and just applied, I have my YOU session coming up soon. If I go through the enlistment process will I be deployed this year? And if I do do I have a choice to do it next year as I want to first complete year 11
Hey Cas I recently just went to an information night down at recruiting and I had a really good chat with one of the instructors down there talking about infantry and so on. The next day I had a call saying that infantry was full which is what I am most interested in doing and the other 2 jobs I was also interested in doing were also full, so I was just wondering if you could share some advice with what I should do, if I should wait until it’s opened or try a different job until then, just curious of your thoughts thanks
regrettably it appears that australia has been under foreign military occupation since 26 January 1910. via stealth. club of rome UNIDROIT. satan pty ltd. i only found out quite recently. that's why they just burnt us. many aussies awakening and now know. stand tall. no disrespects. remain honourable.
Hey Cas, two questions for you, what is your thoughts on Drone Operator? The role is listed under Combat and Security and wondering if they push with the Infantry on the front line or do they sit further back, in short would I be out in the bush quite often?
What the fuck do you think a drone is? How do you think they operate them? My 3 year old niece knows that drone operators are POGs but you want to join the army and can't figure that out?
keegan rach what I mean is women have options men don’t and even if they fail horribly they are rewarded and even paid for failing by unlocking the pre fit program where men would be told no you failed entry
keegan rach yep but they don’t and it’s not fair for anyone it’s actually criminal I believe feminists should be fuming it’s like recruiting is saying we expect them to fail so we must give them a special under the table way on despite plenty doing the work and earning their way from effort,,,, The feminists are silent but
That last bit about winter man!! Winter sucks, i'm awaiting medical clearance, but have a job waiting for me and I just know I'll end up going to kapooka in winter, not keen 🤣🤣 let's hope this climate change stuff makes winter warmer and dryer this year 🙄🤣🤣
I don't know mate, its pretty bad! Coldest I've ever been, sleeping in a mud pit and soaked from head to toe in July, it wasn't easy. If you can handle that quite easily hats off to you!
Heat is never painful cold always is... Whether it’s winter or cold from being wet and waterlogged there is no argument cold is worse.. Are you military mate? There is a reason passive cold is used as an interrogation tactic. Your not allowed to just put on warm clothing when your cold either. I don’t need to convince you either couldn’t give a toss partner just letting people know my experience says enough
In The Trenches With Cas - yeah nah living in Aus you’d think i’d have no trouble with hot weather but me and heat just don’t go well together. Thanks for sharing your experiences though, great vid. I guess i’ll just have to go through it myself, might even get my ass handed to me who knows 😂
In The Trenches With Cas - I know we’re practically strangers but trust me when I say this, you’re a great blessing to me bud. Your videos never disappoint and I don’t where i’d be without ya! So keep your chin up yeah
"corporal let me get behind you and show you what i mean" as im sipping my coffee god damn edit: "ive seen better shots on redtube" wtf again as im sipping coffee
awesome vid, again! , much needed this one, puts kapooka into perspective😂👍🔥🔥🔥.. Hope to catch up with you on enlistment day for platoon 17 or March out. Bet its going to be freezing at kapooka and singleton - worse than the heat, for sure 100% Take care muchas gracias 🙏🙏🙏
Kapooka was awesome!. It's probably like stepping into North Korea and being part of a dictatorship that you will most likely never experience again, unless you get thrown in the slammer.
Taking a dump at 4am religiously is the only time you will get on your own to do this at your own pace and enjoy the peace.
It gets easier after about 2-3 weeks when you work out what is actually going on with the routine.

G Duncan yes mate let’s see what comes out of it hey
regrettably it appears that australia has been under foreign military occupation since 26 January 1910. via stealth. club of rome UNIDROIT. satan pty ltd. i only found out quite recently. that's why they just burnt us. many aussies awakening and now know. stand tall. no disrespects. remain honourable.
Hey Cas, two questions for you, what is your thoughts on Drone Operator? The role is listed under Combat and Security and wondering if they push with the Infantry on the front line or do they sit further back, in short would I be out in the bush quite often?
no stupid questions... just stupid people.
Ben Harris the drones they use these days would surely be operated on base, although I’m not 100% certain mate
Ben Harris
There’s very little combat or security associated with drone operator.
@@opmnz Wondering how I am stupid?
What the fuck do you think a drone is? How do you think they operate them? My 3 year old niece knows that drone operators are POGs but you want to join the army and can't figure that out?
Failing Kapooka is like fucking up breathing. Sounds hard but people do it.
What does the pfa consist of?
Anthony
Men 15 push ups
45 sit ups
7.5 Beep Test
just got my enlistment day for the 25th of may. Its gunna be a fuckin cold one ahahahah
every time he says 11 platoon i think of danger close
ha I ended up being 11platoon in 2 RAR and then 12 Platoon in 2 RAR so Delta Company is a friend of mine..
Really? Would you rather doing 6months in summer or 3months in winter?
What he mean at 1.27 “sort of”
keegan rach what I mean is women have options men don’t and even if they fail horribly they are rewarded and even paid for failing by unlocking the pre fit program where men would be told no you failed entry
In The Trenches With Cas oh right. Should they not get the same treatment
keegan rach yep but they don’t and it’s not fair for anyone it’s actually criminal I believe feminists should be fuming it’s like recruiting is saying we expect them to fail so we must give them a special under the table way on despite plenty doing the work and earning their way from effort,,,,
The feminists are silent but
In The Trenches With Cas and then they rant and rave about being just as strong as men. If this is so why are the requirements not the same
Turned 17 couple days ago 👍 77 days until I go 😂
Hey mate update?
You make it through?
That last bit about winter man!! Winter sucks, i'm awaiting medical clearance, but have a job waiting for me and I just know I'll end up going to kapooka in winter, not keen 🤣🤣 let's hope this climate change stuff makes winter warmer and dryer this year 🙄🤣🤣
Sergeant! God 🤣🤣
I’m lucky to be in a position that some choose to listen I’m here to help mate Let’s Go
LOL, you are right. You can't fail Kapooka (now), but you can fail in the real life Army.
Do it for the right reasons.
Hello thumbs down guy 🔱
I’ve lived my whole life believing Winter is way better than Summer, you really think Kapooka’s gonna change my mind mate?
I don't know mate, its pretty bad! Coldest I've ever been, sleeping in a mud pit and soaked from head to toe in July, it wasn't easy. If you can handle that quite easily hats off to you!
Heat is never painful cold always is...
Whether it’s winter or cold from being wet and waterlogged there is no argument cold is worse..
Are you military mate?
There is a reason passive cold is used as an interrogation tactic.
Your not allowed to just put on warm clothing when your cold either.
I don’t need to convince you either couldn’t give a toss partner just letting people know my experience says enough
In The Trenches With Cas - yeah nah living in Aus you’d think i’d have no trouble with hot weather but me and heat just don’t go well together. Thanks for sharing your experiences though, great vid. I guess i’ll just have to go through it myself, might even get my ass handed to me who knows 😂
Ashley McCloud I just want you all to have meaningful lives mate I have been blessed and cursed to be honest
In The Trenches With Cas - I know we’re practically strangers but trust me when I say this, you’re a great blessing to me bud. Your videos never disappoint and I don’t where i’d be without ya! So keep your chin up yeah
Any march 31st people going in, I'm going in combat engineer
Why don’t you wear the skippy badge on ya slouchy anymore cas
fnbfnbf hey mate I had the badge taken off for a different video mate that’s all I’ll put it back on for you mate ..
Could you please make a video about the aptitude and maths test?
Thats evident some of the shit fight operators come through some of the regiments I've worked at
"corporal let me get behind you and show you what i mean" as im sipping my coffee god damn
edit: "ive seen better shots on redtube" wtf again as im sipping coffee
awesome vid, again! , much needed this one, puts kapooka into perspective😂👍🔥🔥🔥..
Hope to catch up with you on enlistment day for platoon 17 or March out.
Bet its going to be freezing at kapooka and singleton - worse than the heat, for sure 100%
Take care muchas gracias 🙏🙏🙏
