It’s your boy it’s your boy lol I love when he says that
Man! He be deploying them positive vibes all around.
Back in 85 we were given a dream sheet for Duty Station after graduation, we could only choose East Coast, West Coast or Over Seas.
Everyone that picked East Coast went to Cherry Point, everyone that picked West Coast went to 29 Palms and if you picked overseas you went to Camp Pendleton. What a pisser, I wanted Pendleton but was stuck in the Stumps.
It turned out to be a decent Duty Station though, lots of great memories.
Camp Schwab circa 2000 - 04 Okinawa was awesome. And I personally liked Bridgeport .
Definitely trying to go overseas, part of the reason I choose infantry cause I was told by my dad and my recruiter that traveling is huge for Infantry
Hell yea I got my meps next week hell yea let’s go
Answer every question with a no.
No= qualified
Yes= disqualification
still in?
That little thing in the beginning was the remnants of the hodgetwins we all carry in us 😂😂😂
It’s almost as if they were Marines
@@arizonaflex3634 The Hodge Twins are Marine Veterans...
@@dnehemiah1022 I think that was his joke
@@dnehemiah1022 🤦🏽♂️
Using our father's name in vain was a complete turn off. I refused to listen to your remarks.
When i was in 86-91 you had to do 1 year over sea's on your first enlistment
I would suggest you tell your recruiter you want a duty station option and be insistent. I was in Hawaii which has a large infantry,air wing and logistics command. I had a new Marine who insisted he had an East Coast option for a duty station. My Sergeant Major read his contract and the young grunt was correct. The Sergeant Major called the assignment Sergeant Major and told him to cut orders to the Second Marine Div at Lejeune for the Marine. Since he had only been in Hawaii a month the assignment guy pushed back. He picked the wrong Sergeant Major to lean on. Mine told him he had 24 hours to cut the orders or the issue went to his boss. The kid got orders to Lejeune like his contract promised.
@@zachgeary5088 it is possible if you insist with the recruiter and they rate your MOS at that duty station. Normally it is a wide geographic area like East Coast.
I Joined from 86 to 91 and was stationed at Camp Pendleton at Del-Mar, because of my MOS and my Unit, I had the chance to get deployed on a few good OPS, Turkey, Hawaii and few guys from my Unit got a chance to do a Op in Thailand, so the sky is limit, but you gotta do your reseach and do what's best for your family and yourself, and is the Marine Corps a career on a step to where you're going.
In 1981, when I went through ITS (Infantry Training School), we were told, “If you graduate 1-3 in the class, we will let you pick your duty station.” Having been born in California and my wife being here, I busted my ass and graduated #1 out of my class. I asked for Camp Pendleton. I ended up in Camp Lejeune. When I went to the First Sergeant, he didn’t even listen to me. Told me to get the f*** out of his office. That was that.
My first duty station was 29 Palms. I am one of the crazy ones, but I enjoyed the "Stumps" very much. Straight out of school as an instructor. 2531 and 2542.
0:01 always the best part about your videos my man.
I was stationed in Iwakuni. Best duty station in the Corps!!!
So Iwakuni or Japan
Yeah, it was pretty sweet there.
I did my entire time on Camp Kinser I extend on Oki so I could deploy to Trashcanistan. Loved Okinawa even though a lot of guys hated it, 3rd Maintenance Battalion
The best duty assignment during my time was at base special services motor transport, headquarters company, regimental headquarters, 1st Marine Division. It was at 13 area. Our barracks and motor transportation vehicles were next to the Base Special Services headquarters. We were not issued any weapons and there were no formations. There were 5 or 6 of us there. One sergeant was the dispatcher and another sergeant was one of the drivers. We transported military personnel to various destinations on base. We would also take Marines and Marine dependents to places like Disneyland and knotts berry farm and even to dodger stadium to watch baseball games. My tour was almost over and I was encouraged to reenlist but like a dummy I decided to get out.
I remember watching the SR71 blackbird at kadena in 87
Twenty-nine palms 2nd battalion 7th marines Fox Co. I loved every minute of it.
Can you make a video about family life in the marines? When you had kids? Challenges? Adjustments? Etc What you wish you knew?
Daycare if you use it? Life with newborns?
Camp Hansen and Camp Foster was nice. Kadena was nice too, but too crowded for my tastes.
I went to school in 29 Palms and was the only one in my class that got orders to stay there as a duty station. One of the guys offered me $200 to trade orders with him and go to Oki instead. Such a great deal. Had a great time on MCAS Futenma and almost stayed another year until I got orders to Miramar.
How was mimara
@@pololittle2583 I loved being stationed there. Great weather, plenty of fun stuff off base. Carne Asada everywhere. Probably the best place to be stationed in the Marines.
OMG I was at Camp Hansen back in 2012-2013. I was at the SOTG unit next to the Palms.
0331 On a 4 year Contract I was always on Deployment with the FMF.......Okinawa like Northern Territory Camp Schwab ...3 moths Camp Schwab and 4 months Korea near the DMZ ,Frozen like always cause all we had were like old kerosene heaters that the WE had to purchase and the Corps bought the Fuel !!! Europe is the best ....2 Med Cruise's 2 North Atlantic Cruise's and 1 Caribbean Cruise ...we also pulled a summer down in Panama Naval Station US
My husband is currently finishing the quarantine phase and will begin boot camp on Monday. Do you have any tips or suggestions for the family aspect of military life. At what point was your family able to move to where you were stationed?
The best time would be after he finishes his school,?then a few weeks or months so he can scout the area and make a decision.
K Bay. Best duty station
I picked west coast in 1991. Thought I would get Pendleton, I got Hawaii.
I always miss the tankers, those sun of beach guy…
Cool video man stay safe
Twentynine Palms and Okinawa for the most part. I kinda limited my choices, I told my recruiter I don’t really care much for the ocean or snow. I also scored really high on my ASVAB and other test they gave me. They asked me at SOI about joining force recon and intel. I had been injured twice in MCRD SD for 5 months so I was sick of class work I just wanted to be settled down. If you like being in the woods but have access to the city Big Bear is close by or you can go rack climbing in Joshua Tree National Park and at night watch explosives for ground and during CAX and remember at least it ain’t you this month
If I had to do the Navy over again I’d do more of the MWR events and definitely pick up a hobby or two.
I was at Ft Leonardwood for Engineer Equipment Operator MOS school and I was in the company office for 4 weeks. Every graduation we handed out orders and everybody complained about being further from home or going overseas. I kept telling the sgt i worked for and the company Gunny that i wouldn't bitch at all if i get okinawa. And i got okinawa. It was awesome, then I went to camp Pendleton 2nd which was ok compared to camp foster.
I went in in 92. I told them I wanted east coast and some other things and I got everything I wanted. I had a good recruiter who didn't try to screw me
Solid video. Currently in MOS School and taking your advice in consideration
Best ytber right here thank you for the vids brother god bless
I’m currently in the process for the usmc. I’m waiting for my recruiter to get my clearance for my tattoo. I really really really want to be stationed in Japan so dam bad bruh. What chance do i have to be stationed in japan? I’m looking forward to be a 0331 as my mos.
I heard that if you choose Overseas you have a insanely high chance of being stationed in Japan, Personally I was thinking of going overseas too but I’m gonna put my preference as West
Looks like your going to Japan since if you want overseas your most likely gonna go. Not everything is guaranteed though so don’t get too happy. Good luck with your future.
@@devildog1534 Fosure thanks my guy.
@@itachiuchiha664 u going the corps?
Is this weeaboo fueled or are you an avid traveler?
Outstanding pass down devil. U freakin hit it on the head. Nobody really thinks about this kinda trash. I was lucky, I had some gtg advice from a retired Marine. 🇺🇸🥇
Thanks for the video bro
A lot of help
I changed units after spending 3 years at Camp Pendleton and went to 29 palms and I loved 29 palms my unit in Pendleton was an overflow unit and if they knew your name you were a shitbag, the unit in 29 was small our company gunny knew everyone’s name, birthday and if you were married he knew your anniversary and he was constantly taking care of his marines
I loved Okinawa (ststioned at Camp Hansen), but get off the base off duty, wherever you go, combat zones will be the exceptions.
I’m getting stationed at Camp Hansen, did you do the Jungle Warfare Training?
@@ImJamon
Let's just say up will be doing some "camping". You will most likely also be doing some floats.
If you are willing to go out and turn over some rocks, so to speak, you will find Okinawa a very good duty station. Be curious, be courteous and enjoy your time on the Rock.
All my duty stations kicked ass! Semper Fi!
Hawaii or anything overseas. Semper Fi.
My husband was stationed in 29 when we got married. He worked far from base housing. Took him 30 mins to drive all the way to his work location and needed a security clearance to even go in. He did many training sessions in Yuma. Would drive down on his weekends off. 29 is horrible. Lived on and off base. Seriously in the middle of no where and either hotter than hell or freezing cold. There is nothing much to do unless u are on base. 29 is where they train before war. Huge base but not a fun place to get stationed.
I’m going to basics in May in San Diego
You have any questions about boot I graduated Dec 4 Mike Co San Diego
What's my best mos at a chance of going to Japan? Dog handler really interests me although I think it's not entry level I'm talking to a recruiter on Tuesday
I'm really interested in a HUMINT job, I've read a LOT on it. But I know it's not just something you sign up for. My local recruiter feels really shady and kinda uninspired and I don't feel like I'm getting the best information. If I go intelligence, will I most likely get a desk job? And two, do you think it would be smart to choose intelligence if I want to do a more field-oriented job?
0231 is a desk job. that is until you lat move to counter-intel, they are kinda field-oriented but still a desk job. thats literally your best bet for field-oriented job for intel. 0211 look it up.
Im shipping out May 17th on one hand i want to stay in California since every base is close to my hometown at most a 2 hour drive on the other hand I want to go to a different place only planning on doing 4 years and then applying for a fire department
My son really wants to go to Germany. Marines have a small command center there. He is still in his school house at 29 Palms for radio & radar repair. Does he have a chance for Germany?
Nope. Never even knew the Marines were in Germany. I know the army and Air Force have bases there. Chances are low for him unfortunately. Pretty much the only overseas place is Japan.
There's embassy duty usually out of security forces mos. You can be stationed anywhere in the world if that's what you're looking for.
Hey brotha , I watch your videos and am a fan. I’m shipping to boot camp April 19th. I have an issue tho and kind of need some second opinions I guess? So I went to MEPs last week for the moment of truth bs and I told them that I don’t have any tickets courts etc but in reality I have 2 speeding tickets from 2019 that I paid off this week and also have a pending small claims case but my insurance is taking care of it and even have a letter from the lawyer to the USMC if anything. My recruiter been known this since the day I went to the office but he told me not to worry about it. Is it true?? These speeding tickets are gonna be on my record and I’m worried they’ll send me back home at boot camp for it.. I told him about my concern and he said he’ll probably put them on my contract but he has to talk to his boss first. Do you think that’ll be an issue since they are already paid for but I never mentioned them at MEPs? Going infantry so I’m worried they’ll dig deeper.
Yo that was my original shipping date but I had it pushed back since i gotta save up rent money for my mom who depends on me and my share of the rent instead shipping out May 17th
You’ll be fine. I got a speeding ticket as a poolee. Paid it off and went about my business
@@marshallbrown8115 made it , simper Fidelis
Combat engineer, which station most like I’ll end up or be good to go to??
Which one did you end up going to?
Knew a guy who got stationed to Switzerland, straight from bootcamp, San Diego during the Vietnam War. !
Explanation: He became a Diplomatic driver at the Embassy. Somebody knew him.
I’m a 7011 and I got to choose the exact base I want to go to not just a geographical area so it all depends on your job
Well you have cherry point nc you have k bay hawaii new river and others I been to them all if you are in the air wing
What I liked about Pendleton vs everywhere else is you have normal civilization with normal American citizens right outside the base gates
Are the air stations usually nicer and smaller?
was at mcas new river, it is smaller, not necessary nicer but prob alot better than big base traffic. beware alot of freedom noises.
It depends. I was at MCAS El Toro and it was like four small bases put together. The air stations are nicer because there’s a higher officer population.. same with Quantico.
Parris Island as permanent personnel was pretty fucking sweet. Lejeune, not so much!
I would love to get orders to MCRD San Diego, currently at New River
The crazy thing for me is that I chose east coast and I got hawaii and I am so happy that I got hawaii.
Spent 6.5 years at MCB Kaneohe. Loved it there.
15k!!!
Semper Fi 72-76 last duty station was best Marine Barracks NAS Key West
Wassup ErryBody 💪🏾💯
Wats crackin mate🤙
@@jjustjoking2116 Ain’t shit Fam chillin 😎
What bases are close to good fight scenes? Like MMA is popular
What is the life as a (2111) small arms repair like? There isn't much out there for it. What does deployment look like?
Is it common to get stationed or deployed to mcas iwakuni? What Mos's get deployed there?
Wing overeseas - Iwakuni or Okinawa primary.
Does “choosing” your duty station determine what marine division you will be assigned to? Or is it already pre-determined?
You cannot just necessarily choose your duty station. In some instances, you have a choice, but your choice has to include a place that has an opening in your MOS.
how do you shave in the military? because us as black guys are more prone to ingrown hairs, how do you deal with that?
Only thing you can do is use aftershave or anything else to keep the skin moisturized. Other than that we’re pretty much 🤦♂️
I go to boot camp in november. i joined because i need discipline and i wanna travel. So i get stationed regardless? And how does living in these places work? Is there breaks or do i get free time or am i stuck there the whole time?
So I get station regardless? Yup, you will recieve orders telling you where you are going and be staying there till ur contract ends.
How does living in these places work? Depending if you are married or not. If you are single you will get put into barracks and have your own room (similar to dorms or motels) you will either have 1 or 2 roommates and from on there that's basically where you are staying and living at. If married you'll get a house with BHA (Basic House Allowance).
Is there breaks or free time? Yes, it's literally like a 9-5 job. Liberty on weekends and etc etc. Granted you might work more hrs during week days depending on ur mos but overall you'll be working and getting weekends off.
Am I stuck there the whole time? Yup unless you have a car and drive off base with it.
1..east
2.. overseas
3.. west
Put your last choice first, first choice last.
29 palms is the best base in the Corps!!!!
From some of your previous videos, my understanding is that your married, how is it being overseas and your spouse in the military? Did she choose overseas as well?
East coast is way more populated then west coast
Have u been to Iwo Jima?
If I wanted to go to Hawaii would I be allowed to choose to go there? Would it be completely up to me where I wanted to go for the next 4 years? How would that work?
I spent 6.5 years at MCB Kaneohe Hi. Loved it there. Just because you want to go, does not mean you will. First there has to be an opening in your MOS and next others might have requested it as their duty station. So you might get it but you might not, there is no guarantee, Typically Hawaii is 3 year duty station, not 4.
What's the downside as a grunt at camp Lejeune?
Long Floats, good or bad; no really close good liberty, winters suck, ticks, copperheads, Bears [ no shit], never being able to shut the crotch out. I spent a year and a half at Geiger with the former 8th Marines.
Is there an upside to being a grunt? I was with 10th Marines in '70. Not much off base, took a float to Puerto Rico but I think that's been eliminated. I'm sure there must be float exercises somewhere. The base had bad water back then, there's a class action lawsuit ongoing at Lejeune. I put in for southeast asia because I hated Lejeune.
I was talking to my friend that is an MP stationed in Camp Pendleton. The recruiter I was speaking to told me about the sheet that you put your preferences on like West Coast East Coast and overseas. And I told my friend that and he said that that wasn’t true. Maybe he heard me wrong but do you actually get to put your preferences?
Sometines yes, sometimes no.
You forgot II Mar Div Sgt in Lejuene.
Well I got a combat mos 0311 infantry that’s my job of now but could I still get shipped too Okinawa
Did you ever get stationed in Japan bc I am hoping to get stationed in japan when I join the marine corp
If you want a great job in the Marine Corps get into Aircraft Maintenance! It's a whole different experience from being a Grunt!
Can you speak more on it please? Like what its like or whatever bc im weighing between that or infantry
@@2xgio In the Marine Air Wing my job was about keeping the Aircraft I worked on able to fly! I only saw my rifle once a month when I checked it out of the Armory to clean it and turn it back in until the next month, or take to the Rifle Range for annual qualifying! Our basic job was to crew, and maintain the Aircraft for combat operations. Most of the time it was like a regular job with times of playing war with real equipment!
In comms school I didn’t choose my PDS oh well I’m not complaining
Its okay, even if you get to choose if there is no slot open for your MOS your going where they want you to go. I pick 1 west, 2 oversea, 3 east and I got east because my MOS was full on west and overseas but had like 11 open slots on east. all of my class went straight to east regardless of what they picked.
@@iplayfoofee3547 I got west I’m staying here in 29 but I’m from AZ so I am not complaining
@@arizonaflex3634 You will.
Does this apply for officers coming out of tbs
Officers don’t have as much lead way because it’s not that many they go where they are needed
👍
Are their bases overseas for infantry
is hawaii considered overseas?
Yes
How often do you get deployed?
Can Military Police (5811) get stationed in Florida?
Anyone knows where public affairs marines are stationed ??
How to chose preferences?
Air wing?
Thoughts on marine corps after college?
Go officer if you can
Why the fuck did you go to college
@@gagegarofalo123 lol
get the easiest degree and go officer, unless you're only planning to do 1 contract then get an actual useful degree. Liberal Arts degree xD
