    Ahh....the Infantry 11B/ 11C life. Physical hell on earth, and by choice! We all volunteered for this didn't we? Hunger, cold, wet, hot, thirsty, hurting and blisters. Lots of them. As an 11B so many times I cursed the Bradley's and Abram's roaring by during training. They had COOLERS strapped to the outside of their vehicles, by God! I had a Winnebago strapped to my back.
    Your first duty station is a learning experience. Keep your mouth shut, listen to your Team and Squad Leader and get with the program!

    Duty in Germany will make you a professional alcoholic. You'll laugh at your old friends back home when you drink them under the table because you're used to beer with flavor for starters, and up to 14% alcohol. I have a scar under my lower lip-a souvenir from my first weekend in Germany.

    Fort Riley was my first duty station. First year was okay. The rest of the time was not good.
    I was mechanized and spent most of my time on M2A3/M3A3 Bradleys in a motor pool, I was infantry BTW. It gets very cold, you run ALOT. I got hazed for like 3 months by my team leader and other team leaders. Keep in mind i didnt even ever fuck up, its just cuss i was new.
    I ended up outranking all the people that were in charge of me before my first contract ended. But Riley is not a positive experience and i would avoid it if possible.
    im heading to Fort Polk, we will see if its terrible or not.

    Towards the end of the video you mentioned being posted at Camp Greaves but that it was unoccupied. Any idea whose barracks you were in? If you happen to have any, I'd really appreciate any pics you might still have of the place after the turnover but prior to it becoming a tourist attraction.

      Hey whatsup P: , i know that there are alot of ASVAB videos and etc...but some people say that you need to score a 98CO (for infantry) and other people just say that scoring a 32 on the ASVAB will do it ....Whats the correct answer??

      Actually, the lowest scoring on that test are the cooks. Infantry you can't be that stupid or you can get your buddy's killed. Their are many very high scoring individuals in the Infantry. Also have to have a good score (last i heard it was 110 minimum for special forces)

      Mike Pence not really moron if you want to be 11x you have to get a 87 score in CO which is Combat and it’s not that easy to get because they count a lot of points from the last part of the exam and when you get to the last part you just want to get out of there so some people don’t really focus on that area and they don’t qualify for infantry because of that.,if you don’t know what you’re talking about keep your mouth shut and don’t say stupid things because then you look ignorant and stupid🤣🏌️‍♂️

    • @josephszczepanik8976

      Ricardo Gonzalez if you want to travel go army because there are a lot more duty stations for the army around the world than there are in the marines or any other branch, and since you want to travel go in a combat mos like infantry because you will travel more in that mos than a non combat mos. as an infantry will probably be able to go to other nations and be able to train with their army.
