  • i got this MOS but i work on the equipment/vehicle repairer

  • im going to CEIC right now I dont know if i could have picked a better mos

  • Hell yeah! Brings back memories!

  • my friend just joined the 1371 ceb. thats why im watching this.

  • If i get the appropriate score of 95 on the asvab, do i automaticaly get this as a choice?

  • @xTheCarHubx No the job choices you will get depend on the units around you, and what there are. Like for me no matter what my ASVAB score was I only had 4 choices because the units around me are either Support (Mechanics, drivers, ect, or Sappers which are 99% Combat Engineers.

  • i was looking for an MOS in the Marine Corps, I found Combat Engineering (with some prior knowledge), and fell in love with it!

  • THATS HOW YOU DO YOUR JOB!

  • Did I see 'the machine' Machinsky in this video?

    Semper Fi,

    GySgt Richmond

  • do female combat engineers get to do all this stuff too?

  • @believeANDachieve12 not so much, not saying they dont completely but they are put in the construction side of marine combat engineering

  • omg so perfect how the explosion is in time when the song goes into the counting part : "Eins,zwei,drie..." that part oh man good and stay alive for the love of god

  • im in the basic combat engineer class right now and its pretty backked up right now. its gonna stayed backed up for a while atleast till november

  • I'm excited, I got put in as a suggested Combat Engineer, and I hope i do this looks fun. Nov 14th ship date, cant wait.

  • BRAVO COMPANY GET ER DONE

  • @SOULMUTHERS got er did

  • can i be guranteed that im gonna be CEB cuz i dont want to be any of the other types of Combat engineers, i dont want to be stuck making buildings all day

  • @AmericanGMS There's only one Combat Engineer MOS and its 1371.. I don't know what you mean by you don't want to be any other type of combat engineer unless you mean you don't want to be any other type of engineer. But if you're in the DEP and there are slots open, yes you are going to get combat engineer if you can get a slot, but if there are no slots open you will not be guaranteed it.

  • @ICrySemperFi ok good but whens the best time to talk to a recruiter, when all the jobs are opened and when is that?

  • @AmericanGMS Well anytime is good, but at the beginning of every fiscal year the recruiters get new MOS slots open.. but since you want to be a combat engineer like I chose, there are slots open pretty much all the time for it

  • @ICrySemperFi is there anyway you can be guranteed combat engineer in your contract or do you have to pick the field 1300? and whats Fiscal year mean, like september? or january?

  • @AmericanGMS At the recruiting station I went to, it starts again in November. And if there are slots open for combat engineer, you will get it.

  • @ICrySemperFi oh i was always told that you have to enlist in the 1300 field and people have told me that i am not gonna be able to be guranteed combat engineer

  • right now i have a open 1300 contract an my ship date is Aug 1st what are the chances that I will get 1371.

  • Holy Fuck!!! Best damn video of what Combat Engineers do! This coming from a 1371 himself! Good job, and Semper Fi!......I know, I know fuck that moto shit!

  • THnx for lettin us watch. A1 2nd CEB 94-96

  • 2:09 = badass family photo!

  • who can i talk to about being a Combat Engineer?

  • MY SSGT IS HERE! he is currently my recruiter. Hell yeah Ssgt. Rojas

  • ENGINEERS UP!!!

  • what does a combat engineer do?

  • @AmericanGMS makes stuff go boom

  • My favorite was the Bangalore Torpedo...

  • Haha, Rammstein.

    Are you gonna reup?

  • im a future marine my brother is in it and does this job great job on the video

  • shit music

  • Bridge Co. B, 6th ESB. anyone know anything about them?

  • I want to do this, but I'd rather join the Army (I don't like water).

  • @SamHagagaga

    Despite the name Marines, they are predominantly land based. You need to be able to swim but only in a pool

  • @shift2max

    hahaha land based killing Machines

  • Comment removed

  • I'm set to go to boot in Sept. of next year. My contract is still open and I'm really looking into signing on as a combat engineer, but what all do you do as one?

  • GRUNTS ON ANGELDUST

  • Bascially Infantry on steroids.

    Capt. McInnis

    1st CEB (The Super Breed)

  • @MrPoppernickel You said it Capt. From former C. Co 1st CEB Marine.

  • @MrPoppernickel You said it all Capt. From former C Co. 1st CEB marine

  • @MrPoppernickel what do you mean? explain what they usually do plz?

  • Had to watch on our birthday, Semper Fi fellow combat engineers.

    On the ninth day the gates of hell were open and engineers sealed it.

  • that was a bad ass group picture with the explosion behind it.

  • when i join the marines i want to be infantry or combat engineer

  • :51 holy fuckin BANGALORE!

  • Is this all Combat Engineers do? because it looks fun

  • can marines be sappers or is that strictly an army thing? if so what are some marine sapper school bases?

  • i freken wanted 1371 but the gave me 0811 field artillery guess i gotta wait 18 months

  • @tepsy1993 lol thats tha us marines for ya xD

    thanks for the service bro(:

  • i lol'd hard when the guy fired the pump shotgun and the camera man started to laugh

  • so im DEPed in and all as 1371, USMC reservist. i wanna switch it to active but my recruiter said then i probably wont get combat engineer again. am i screwed?

  • @MassAxeMurderer i'm DEP'd in with a 1300 contract, but my recruiter told me it's first come first serve. He said he wasn't going to lie to me, BUT, if I have a higher ASVAB score, they MIGHT give me my preference of 1371. If you want to go active, freakin' do it, or you will regret it (my buddy in the army is trying to go active but can't and he HATES reserve duty)

    Take the chance, dude. After 18 months, you are allowed to switch your MOS

  • @Squadomatick well i got a 74 on my ASVAB so thatll put me in pretty good standing. and i am gonna switch. if i dont get 1371 ill just go grunt. my recruiter said he will switch me but there isnt any 1371 spots open now. when they are. thats when we will switch

  • @MassAxeMurderer you could go grunt and opt for 0351 Assaultman. It's like combat engineer, but you're ONLY blowing shit up, not building stuff too. It's more grunt work. At this point, I'm doing everything I can do switch to grunt because I don't want to be stuck building things. I really want 0331 machinegunner

  • @Squadomatick well i wanna switch to active and ill have to get 1371 again when i switch. so if i cant get 1371 ill go for that. thnx for the advice

  • @MassAxeMurderer Engineers get tasked out to grunts 51's dont really get to blow much up anymore we do all that, but like he said we build stuff to, another down side to being an engineer is you may get sent to a wing unit. I myself am a lineman with 2/3, and am headed to afghanistan here in the coming weeks.

  • Anyone from Bravo Co. 2nd CEB from 1985 to 1989 give L/Cpl Johns a call my address is in the Batallion Book.

  • Hey man pretty kick ass vid. I'm in the delayed entry program and I'm signing up for 1371. It is what my dad did in the army but I wanted to be a marine haha. But could i get a description of what you guys do or something.

  • I'm a high school senior. Currently in DEP. Can't decide between infantry and CE. Scored a 93 on ASVAB. Want the skill, experience, and bad-assedness of 0311 but also want the intricate work in 1371. Plan on re-enlisting. What should I pick?

    "For those who have fought for it, freedom has a taste the protected will never know." Semper Fidelis!

  • @Qafaiti911 There's plenty of bad-assedness in 1371. Email if you want info

  • so combat engiineers blow a lot of stuff up...but do they learn how to build stuff? i read on about.com that combat engineers do construction. is that true?

  • @dilauroj94 Yes its true there were several times we build vech.bridges wide and strong enough for two trucks to drive on side bye side only to get told to blow the bridge up 2 weeks later...

  • I want to be a combat engineer, but my bro told me its pretty fuckin risky. Is it that bad? help me out here.

  • @paddypancakes1 They are the ones who breach so you will be on the front lines for sure, they also deploy for long periods of time. Other than that, my brother is a combat engineer, he's still in AIT but he's loving it. They've been messing around with huge ass explosives that blast 50 ft. craters in the ground, C4, AT mines, dynamite, Javelins, grenade launchers, shotgun breaching, and a shitload more. But you could also be assigned to vehicle units (strykers, etc.).

  • @paddypancakes1 Hey Paddy - it can be. My son has been out on missions ever since he arrived "in-country" but the other 80-odd 1371's that went with him are doing a lot of construction and whatnot. He loves it though! Email me if you want more info!

  • if your an combat engineer officer what do you do any different from enlist men combat engineers

  • KAAABOOOOOOOM!!! you guys are great. be safe. loved the truck getting destroyed by the forklift.

  • if theres a building Marines want to destroy it army wants to set up a perimeter the navy wants to paint it and the air force wants to lease it for five years

    Semper Fi Marines haha

  • 224th C co engineers hooah

  • Hooah??

    Army much???

  • do combat engineers get into firefights?

    will they have a high chance of being attacked with an IED?

    im joining the corps and im still searchin for an MOS:)

  • @stratassassin yes they do get into firefights and they disarm IEDs. they clear the area of IEDs and mines to allow the other marines to do their jobs so there is a great chance of being attacked with IEDs but i don't care im still doing it.

  • JESUS AFGANAN COUNTRY SUCKS!

  • 1st CEB all the way!

  • Love it!!! I was with 2nd CEB, Charlie 2 in '95-'96, 24th MEU BLT 2/8.

    Served 3 years in the IDF Combat Engineers Corps, Though times, Good times...

    Stay safe, Marines :)

  • sick platoon pick at 2:11

  • I wanted the combat Engineer, but did not get the right score on the ASVAB.

  • hahahaha those were the days 94-97 2nd CEB B Co. 3rd plt we had a Corporal Curry (wonder if its the same guy). The only MOS that scares all the others :)

  • @JAM8132 bc i signed for 1371 and i wanted to kno and i commente don multiple vids to make sur ei got an answer.

  • @MassAxeMurderer really cause ur fucking profile says ur joining in 2013 theirs no fucking way u could have signed for 1371 bitch dont fucking lie KID

  • set them traps n let em have it bro

    Semper Fi

    Do Or Die

  • Its funny you use Rammstein. The founding member went to jail rather than to serve in the military. The irony and ignorance is amusing

  • The song is an inside joke, you had to have been on the deployment with us to understand.

  • @rockisland255 looks like etsiag is the ignorant one now

  • @rockisland255 I don't like the rock thing and Marine video's...I think it makes our beloved corps look like trailer trash...use Theatrical or the Marine band...my opinion......I listen to country ;0)

  • @cchanderson I think they deserve nothing less than some badass metal band.

  • And who cares, Rammstien fuckin rules!

  • @etsiag I dont think in choosing this song he was concerned about the political views of this band. The fact is Rammstein is a sick rock band! Great vid!

  • @etsiag ignorance? fuck you lol

  • @etsiag the band has nothing to with it i doubt these guys search up the stories behind the songs they choose. its a cool song that fits well with the video.

  • I am 14 and I have my life set on joing the Marine Corps. No one really wants me to but I want to.

  • Finished my enlistment this morning and was talked into combat engineer. Was going infantry, but who can say no to high powered explosives?

  • I'm a 1345 heavy equipment operator with 3 CEB

  • U.S.M.C been there since 06 cant understand music

  • that that Rammstien, freaky trippy German rock

  • Anyone leaving for MCRD San Diego in July? thats when im going and this is my MOS

  • i leave June 15th. i was supposed to ship July 20th but my date was changed..i was supposed to be 0311 but its full..now i have an open ground contract. i might get this .

  • what's the name of the song

  • Sonne by Rammstein

  • My son was 1st CEB from 02 to 06 , he loved it

  • wat does division mean

  • What's with Marine Corps montages always having German music to them?

  • Not to idealize Hitler, but during WW2, the German army had a kill ratio of 8-1(fucking bad ass). What you said could almost be a compliment, but you could have at least said Wermacht(German army).

  • If Russia France and Poland were taken out of the equation it would be much different I bet.

  • This is going be my MOS. Ship out June 1st. :D

  • Yeah I ship for basic in May!!! 1371!

  • what day in may? i go the 18th

  • Hell yeah!! I'm poolee right now and this is what my MOS is signed up for I leave for Paris Island after I graduate on July 7 I get to go and try and be one of the Worlds best. Cause there is no better than a US Marine

  • fuck yeah, buddy, GET SOME

  • Rock on CEB. I was with Bravo from 94-98. Looks like the company still kicks ass.

  • engineers train for everything. jack of all trades master of none. if you r lucky u will get assigned to a division unit like 1st ceb, 2nd ceb, or cec in okinawa with 3rd mar div. i was in cec, 7th esb, and 373 in miramar. been there done that. good times with division though. got attached to 2/4 on the 31st meu. fukin ooh rah. yae yas!

  • This looks awesome and everything but what are the chances of getting stuck in a engineer unit and patching drywall in Florida or some shit like that?

  • Hey, do combat engineers get to kill anyone besides infantry :P

  • and we get paid to do this.. Oorah

  • shootin the M82A1 is nice and all...but there are days i wake up and just wanna blow shit up...

    OORAH
