Military Thread.

In the process of enlisting, been physically preparing myself for the Army. I can do 71 solid pushups in 2 minutes. 51 situps in 2 minutes. 14:21 2-mile run. Is that a good base to start from?
>>
You'll make it if you go sign up tomorrow. Not really a big deal.
>>
>>694505025
I told you I'm already in the process.
>>
You'll be fine. You'll out perform half your platoon I'd bet.

When you go, be invisible. Don't be the best, don't stand out. Just be another face in the sea of Privates.
>>
>>694505737
Why's that?

>not OP
>>
>>694506192
OP here, I'd presume so I am not targeted by the Drill Sergeants. Makes sense, but if you say I will outperform them, wouldn't that be making me stand out?
>>
>>694506500
2 miles w/o gear in 14 mins?
>>
>>694507122
Gear? I guess.. like in casual work-out cloths yes.
>>
>>694506192
The nail that sticks out, gets hammered in.
>>
>>694507122
If so, cut down that time to less than 10 and you're golden.
>>
>>694504775
If that's what you can do, that isn't bad to start. Just run every day until you go. Believe me your life will be 100x easier.
>>
Air force dep here. Got thr call from my recruiter for aug 9th open mechanical. Not set in stone tho. Fuckin pumped
>>
Currently in the enlisting process for navy. Took ASVAB yesterday and got 95. Wanna go CTI, nuke is back up
>>
It's average so you're good to go. Army's apft minimum pass is a joke, especially for bct/ait so you have nothing to worry about.
>>
>>694504775
You'd be surprised how shit people do on the APFT after 3 years in. This is a great base but your situps are quite shit.
>>
>>694507360
10 minute 2-mile? What the fuck? thats olympic shit.
>>
>>694505680
I mean, your baseline is fine. You'll do okay if tomorrow you shipped. I hope you have to dig a fighting hole with a key now.
>>
>>694507743
Shit man I'm skinny and Sit-ups have always been an issue because of my shitty back even after 2 years in the army so far. Sit ups are the fat mans favorite exercise.
>>
In terms of your mile time, that's a bittt shaky, but its better than the majority, just try to hit under a 6 minute mile split
>>
>>694507769
I was in for 6 years and my best 2 mile time was 11:47. I was 21 and in the best shape I have ever been in. 10 min. miles are fucking ridiculous.
>>
>>694507684
Have you taken the dlab yet?
>>
>>694507769
Difficult, not Olympic though. My 1.5 mile is 8 minutes now. It's just about stamina and a lot of willpower.
>>
>>694507684
You should consider re-taking it if your GT is 95.
>>
>>694508286
No not yet, I had to qualify for it on the ASVAB first. Gonna talk with my lazy fuck of a recruiter to get me scheduled for it.
>>
can i be an air force pilot if i get lasik to fix eyes? heard they changed the criteria regarding that. not sure though
>>
>>694508415
I had the same plan as you, CTI first then nuke as my backup. Nuke sucks, but if you can make it through its the best job in the navy
>>
>>694508358
Why would I retake it if I got cat 1 scores? I didn't get the breakdown for all of it because my recruiter is a shmuck but I think when he told me I got 95 I got 95th percentile
>>
>>694504775
You're a faggot piece of shit, go fail somewhere else.
>>
>>694508702
TRUTH
>>
>>694508660
Are you nuke now?
>>
>>694508680
Ah ok that would make more sense. 95 for overall GT would not be anything special, but I see what you're saying.
>>
32 year retired vet.
i wonder how the transgender / females in infantry... will affect the pt test. if you say that you identify as a chick, do you get to use the female scores?

Only dlab qualifies you for languages. Asvab doesn't mean shit

Don't disclose it
>>
>>694504775
Your GT is 95?! That qualifies you to be a cook....good luck. If you love sucking shit through a tube, you'll be fine.
>>
>>694508778
Yes
>>
>>694504775
Your push ups are decent. Your crunches need work. Your run time can improve also. But youll have time for that when your in the DEP. Just try to PT everyday and do various body workouts to improve. Look up the MARSOC shortcard workout.
>>
>>694504775
Make sure you practice your war face
>>
>>694508824
Still in here. This is looking like a legitimate possibility in the army. Soldier 2020 is the new thing to accept all forms of gender bullshit.

Yeah I know but I couldn't schedule DLAB until I took the ASVAB >>694509033

Navy guy here.

You're fine with those times.
Plus you dont want to do the BEST you can do on the first assessment, they expect progress.

Good luck soldier.

>pic attached is why the navy is one of the best branches.
>>
>>694504775
lol you're fine. I got in barely running 1 mile in 8 minutes. Finished basic with max pt score. Honestly the first 3 pt tests don't mean shit, it's the last pt test that matters, and by that time you'll be fine as long as you take the downtime you have at the end of the day and on sundays to exercise on your own or with a battle.
>>
>>694507905
With a key? Wtf is that shit? How did you fuck up that bad. Also, not op. Leaving September 26.

82nd Airborne here, you're fine OP. Trust me even in Army's first responders we have fat fucks who can't PT for shit. All it takes until the system is changed is to bust tape and be flagged twice for a chapter to initiate and get that lazy ass out. Your run time is on par with the average Airborne runtime. Thats fine. Pushups are fine. You're situps are low but I guess that's the tradeoff for us skinny folk. I think a bit more work there and you will be get a physical fitness badge whilst in BCT/AIT. Not a bad thing at all. Just don't wear that damn thing.
>>
>>694509246
Never went. Not every nuke goes there

JUST A REMINDER: ALL MILITARY ARE CUCKS.

I am enlisted and you'll be completely fine. Honeslty PT standards aren't that enforced.

Consider yourself lucky haha I'm from that area and unless Charleston is a shithole you lucked out. Sub or carrier? Care to tell a bit about your average day underway?

DO NOT enlist. The military will rape you and set you out to die. DO NOT enlist.
>>
>>694509888
who u with faggot 82nd here too
>>
>>694509879
Pretty much, since you're barely allowed to do anything on your own in basic. Even worse is when you're picked to baby sit 2 other of your batte's rifles and you have a day at the field. Fuck me, right?
Pray, fucking pray, you don't go to jrtc as a supporting role. They have pizza hut a half mile from the barracks and if you usually stay in the barracks, you'll be guarding some 20 rifles. Fucking christ TRADOC sucks.

42a, so you suck dicks all day?

>>694510092
You never have a girlfriend while you're in the army.
You never bring a chick to your barracks/house/apartment while in the military
You never fuck chicks around military towns
You never go back to the same bar you fucked a girl in, ever
You never get a shotgun wedding while in the military, fuck her and fuck the baby

You're only a cuck if you make yourself out to be.

He lied about having a key that we needed. 30 minutes later he opens the fucking door. Another corporal decided to teach him the importance of being responsible with items, and how having the right item at the right time is helpful, and why what he did was wrong.


I mean or he did it just because it was fucking great. We were on pavement, so he asks what the fuck he's supposed to do about the concrete in his way. The Corporal points at a crack and says, "look, it's already started for you." It was only about 20 minutes, but it was a good 20 minutes.

I'm thinking of joining the Army Rangers I'm 20 I'm 6 foot 200 pounds I can do 25 clapping push-ups in about 2 minutes maybe less run a mile in 7 minutes bench 270 and I'm a really good shot but never did the ROTC thing in highschool so I would being going in with 0 military training do I even stand a chance of making it

AA is harder than airborne lol and the hardest part of AA was the 12 mile ruck march. That was only hard because I didn't prepare for it, and I got some short as fucking legs so I had to run half of it.
>>
>>694511289
Shit, that's even worse faggot.
>>
>>694511289
He meant Jamal, you welfare cuck.

>>694511354
I was fat as a kid, built amazing leg strength. Got skinny and still had the legs of Zeus. I shit on hikes, all day. Couldn't really run for shit though.
>>
>>694510972
I could agree it's very easy.

AA is harder than airborne, Airborne is just more tedious because you need to keep your currency to keep your jump pay unlike AA where you just get a nifty badge and never do AA ops again.
>>
>>694511270
If you haven't deployed or have done any missions that give you any recognition, you probably won't pass. I think Rangers and I know for a fact SF is peer review. We had a guy in my unit who failed only because he was down voted by the other students for having "no experience" even though he'd been in for 4 years, and he had no deployment. Also in Ranger school, prepare to eat no food ever.

My cousin who is trying to join Rangers did all the ROTC stuff in highschool and has been going through basic training so before he even begins ranger training he will already be an officer maybe I could do something to start my ranking before I try to join the Rangers

>>694513006
JROTC will give you nothing but starting out as a PFC instead of E0 pvt, bumps your pay grade quite a bit. Other than that, it gives you recognition. your cousin would need to do a deployment or two before even trying Ranger or SF school. Or he would need to be one charismatic motherfucker and win the hearts of the other battle hardened NCO's and officers in ranger school.
Also, high school JROTC will not make you an officer? Unless you got that mixed up and you meant graduated college under an ROTC scholarship, than he'll be a butter bar, even then I don't think he'll do good in ranger school, maybe as a 1st LT with a deployment or 2.

I think he may be a Lt. But so you would have to start out just as an infantrymen in the army then come back after a couple tours and apply for SF school?
