  • no offense but whats up with the middle eastern music at the beginning?

  • WTF it Ranger school but it not. There trying be Rangers what a joke

  • Sorry, meant 2007

  • I was the oldest soldier ever to complete the course. Class of September 2010. I'm in the video.

  • they are sappers dip shit

  • thos os not a sapper, sappers take down sentries

  • @darkguyitsme are you stupid

  • @MrUtopia55 no, i just play tf2 :D im sorry if u felt insulted or or in any way upset by my comment. have a nice day

  • I hope I can be as great as these men when I join.

  • <3 military men :)

  • Failure Is Not An Option FINAYO!!!

  • MY DAD IS A SAPPER US ARMY FUCK YEAH HOOAH!!!!

  • Who ever want's to know the defference between combat engineer/sappers. combat engineer = active duty/ Sappers = Army reserve. all combat en = sappers but not all sappers are combat en, get it? female can become a sapper tabber but they can never be a combat en.

  • I wanna be a Sapper or a Ranger but first I want to go to college and get my jump wing in the Airborne after I do that how do you go to the special forces training thing like where do u sign up

  • @baldwinjackson41 dude your just like me imma try to do the same thing

  • @butch22451 cool

  • dayumm

  • 12 bravo recruit Jan. 10. Message me if your going to basic the same day.

  • No there not you can become a Sapper through combat engineer

  • @Jh69921 you can become sapper through any engineer MOS. I'm geospatial engineer, I start sapper leader course next week

  • are sappers the same thing as a combat engineer?

  • i wish i was in sapper school right now. i had a slot, but my unit lost it. fml...

    

  • Do combat engineers get assigned to regular infantry divisions? or are they in a solely engineer division?

  • @rb208 they are assigned

  • @rb208 It depends, EN Company get assign to support a whole brigade,or each EN plt supports each company of Infantry in a battalion.or even smaller # EN squad/a couple sapper can support them as a land mine detector/door or any obstacle breacher. combat en is the jack of all trade. As far as i know the only group of combat EN are in company,the highest is a battalion. not really sure?

  • @totoynani143 There are Engineer Brigades as well. The only time I have heard of a single platoon or squad being assigned to a larger unit are the Prime Power guys unless they are assigned in an OPORD in theater or during an EXEVAL.

  • Can someone tell me how they like this mos, pros and cons. And whats the daily life like? And what is the difference between a combat engineer and a sapper?

  • @DevinWhiteman To be a sapper, you have to be a combat engineer to begin with. Combat engineers are trained soldiers in demolitions, breaching, and construction. A sapper basically specializes mainly in demolitions and breaching in the more advanced manner as well as carrying out more complex missions in smaller teams rather than missions directed as a larger group such as a company. Each Sapper must demonstrate leadership and individual skill in the absence of superiors to direct them.

  • @Dbot101 You do not need to be a 21B to attend SAPPER Leader Course. You just have a higher chance of getting your request to attend accepted if you are 21B.

  • Comment removed

  • @Ellis19D I'm not gonna argue because you are absolutely right. I stand corrected now that I think about it. Not only is the Sapper slot available for different Army personnel, Sapper school is actually also open to the Marine Corps.

  • @Dbot101 any engineering MOS can be a sapper. I've actually heard that sapper leader course is not MOS dependent at all and you could be a 91 or 88 thats just part of an engineer unit and still go to sapper

  • i still 6months till BCT and then ill go to sapper school

  • fuck ya enlisting as a 12b in 2 days!!!

  • 12B hell yeah man

  • 12b leads the way and are high speed infantry fuck 11b

  • hey im join 12b and one of my freinds told me to sign up for this class what does sapper do??? i leave for boot camp in 2012 01 03 after new years

  • since when can a female be a 21B? That is BS!!!

  • @orice1965 Dont worry,they just want them to wear a tab. i felt that low when i ended up in the reserve, u know? weekend warrior. all eng r sappers but not all sappers r eng, get it?

  • @orice1965 You don't have to be a 21B to go to Sapper Leader Course. There are non Engineers that attend as well.

  • @orice1965 I believe women are only banned from 11 series; Infantry... all other MOS are not considered combat positions (or however they justify letting girls play with the boys). That's what happens when you vote Democrat; they want EOE above all else, even at the expense of quality vs. quantity.

  • @orice1965 The female you see in the video is not a 21B but a 21C which is a bridge builder. Their is nothing barring against 21C training in Sapper school.

  • thumbs up if tf2 brought you here

  • Excelent video, long way to be a Sapper but many people can't continue is very hard, sorry 4 my english, my last name is Sapper and all my family are military and I B- 40 A ALcon, thanks for share this video. lol now just I play videogames im remember my tacticals and i love 1 game called COD Black Ops. :)

    

  • Take the person who posted that this is spam out behind the wood shed and use your imagination.Our fighting men and women are protecting us and saving the globe from natural disasters an civil unrest

  • "sappers lead the way." more like "sappers FUCK SHIT UP HORAH"

  • im an old sapper (Canada) this was a good vid till i heard the cows voice.....not one woman on Gods green earth could ever be a sapper. ....think about it????

  • @OTULP62 anyone can earn the sapper tab, but i guarantee you she is not a combat job. We don't let females get combat jobs in the military. Most combat a girl can get in the army is bridging engineer, Military police, or some sort of field job which is not used for actual combat.

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX Hey are sappers actually known as military engineers or is it different in the US because i wanna be a military engineer but still fight alongside infantry

  • @UKairsoft94 i am a combat engineer, we are known as sappers as well, we are highspeed infantry with explosives, and spend more time outside the wire than infantry. We blow more stuff up than the average infantry man. Combat engineers is among the best and highly respected combat jobs among all Branches of the military

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX Yeh but your from the US just wondering if its the same in the UK?

  • @UKairsoft94 Combat engineers share the same responsibilities all over the world

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX Okey cheers man

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX Combat Engineers are "high speed infantry"? BS, that's an insult to infantrymen everywhere. Stop trying to glorify yourself to civilians who dont know any better and just do your job.

  • @OTULP62 i know a bunch haha .

  • @OTULP62 If you actually believe that, there's not much hope for you. Good thing you're Canada & not U.S.

  • I'm all about the Vietnamese sappers. Those guys could go through the wires silently, almost naked with their bodies painted, deactivate all the mines, breach all obstacles and once inside blow the whole place up to smithereens. They would target airfields, barracks, command centers, communication centers, and destroy millions worth of equipment for mere pennies. They can crawl extremely slowly in the dark and get real close to the enemy without being detected. Look up fire base Mary Ann.

  • I thought we called our engineers pioneers and that anyone could go to Sapper school whether they were an engineer or not. That's why my team sergeant tells me at least.

  • IN THE BRITSH ARMY WE DO THAT SHIT IN BASIC THATS WHY WE ARE THE BEST TRAINED ARMY IN THE WORLD GOOD HELP THE REST OF THE WORD IF WE HAD THE KIT YOU LOT HAD

  • @joeD692007 No you don't stupid. The average British Soldier is better trained than an American average Soldier,but Army Rangers & Army Sappers are better trained than the average British Soldier. You guys don't do para,demolitions,mine emplacement,etc,in the British Army Basic. And try to spell better next time before gloating on a video thats not about your Army,k?

  • @joeD692007 you are able to do this as you claim because you have a much smaller army we have more to train in less time and still top any Army in the world.

  • So is a Sapper basically an engineer thats gone through ranger school?

  • @Sanctity2112 nope - that would be a badass sapper -----for everyone going to leonard wood - don't forget to stop by benning on your way out

  • @ping2lo Haha yeah i guess youre right then. But can you better explain Sapper for me, i cant find anything online really for it.

  • @Sanctity2112 A sapper or combat engineer is a combatant soldier who performs a wide variety of combat engineering duties, typically including, but not limited to, bridge-building, laying or clearing minefields, demolitions, field defenses, general construction and building, as well as road and airfield construction and repair. There are different levels of being a sapper -- like different levels of engineers from a guy who designs a building to the guy who sweaps its floor.

  • @ping2lo So are all engineers sappers then? its not like a seperate school you need to go through?

  • @Sanctity2112 to be a sapper you have to go through sapper school. they are combat engineers but at an advanced level. much more advanced than the typical army combat engineer. army rangers have failed sapper school before. it is by far extreme. sappers have to earn the sapper tab by going through sapper school. combat engineers are just regular army. sappers are more special operations than they are army

  • @45coltpeacemaker Thanks man that cleared it all up

  • @Sanctity2112  combat engineers are referred to as sappers, but they're not really true sappers. in order to be a real sapper you gotta compete for a slot to go to sapper school and come out with the tab. the average grad rate from the school is 40%.

  • Essayons!!!! Hooah!!!

  • @MAOfights I attended in 1997...one of the girls in my unit was told otherwise..she wasn't too happy about it.

  • i want to go but i am not sure which training program should i follow to be ready for it

  • It's HUA, not HOOAH. Heard. Understood. Acknowledged.

  • leave for Fort LWood 20110706 anybody joining me

  • I was a sapper from 1998 to 2008 but it's a job that i truly love. Have'nt had the opportunity to go to sapper school but would try it if i could

  • I leave for Fort LWood 20112401 (January 24, 2011) for 12B

  • @509432509432 don't get the laundry service waste of 80 bucks, get plenty of baby whipes and q tips. And get prepared for shark attack from your drill sgts. And dont take the icecream the drill sgts give you during the Gas chamber day

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX You still at it, lying about being a soldier?

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX Why not? I drank 8 cartons of milk on purpose for the Gas Chamber and didn't puke at all, no one did and we all drank tons of milk on purpose thats BS that Dairy makes you puke

  • Comment removed

  • 05JAN2011 HOOOAAAHHcant wait

  • @kdw8732 i ship the exact same day but for basic training to ft. Lwood

  • @12bxRanger  i thought rangers go to bennning

  • why the fuck would you slap a guy when your fighting him? (slap) eh! yah sorry i had to do that.

  • awesome... there's a video of me getting slapped in the face on youtube.

  • the part i love about this is most of you dont mention at all that you can go to both schools so it doesnt matter really if you have both tabs, just that your one bad mo fo. 12b myself and wanting to get into sapper school once i make the rank requirements

  • Ahhh FLW. 21B's Mecca. Good video.

  • what is the difference between a sapper and a combat engineer?

  • @frenchsaber Rangers are special forces of infantry, sappers are special forces of Combat engineer, but Sapper training is way more difficult than Rangers

  • @XxPiMPiNPiNoYxX IDK about that, I've heard it depends. Sapper school is a lot of mathematics and being tired. For a short period of time. And Rangers doesn't take a lot of math but is by far longer and more physically strainful while being tired. I'ma 11b going to 12b. So I have a taste of both worlds and I know sappers and rangers. You really can't say Sappers is more difficult. Unless you have both Tabs.

  • @FighterPilotX its more difficult in the sense that you are being put in alot of physical and mental stress and being expected to retain all this information they throw at you. Im already a 21B

  • @FighterPilotX I got the Sapper Tab and went to Ranger school... and I'd have to agree with you on Ranger vs Sapper... Didn't get the Ranger tab... Ranger was just tougher physically... Sapper was short but i remember some didn't make it because of the Classes... All in all Sapper is was easier for me, but then again i had engineer classes in college... not to say the math was hard... the only hard part about it was there was a time limit to the math test...

  • @frenchsaber combat engineer and sappers... is kind of like infantry and rangers.. it just a additional hell training you got to go to...

  • Comment removed

  • Spah sappin my ... - O.o

  • women can become sappers right???

  • haha combatives hooah

  • Graduated class 14-87 with the 4th Engineer Bn.

  • Comment removed

  • I so badly want to jump out of a plane.

  • yes woman can now attend sapper school

  • Do you have to have airborne training as they are parachuting?

  • combat engineers are badass im a 19d when i went to the recruiters office those were my two choices i ultimately chose to be a scout but i was seriously considering 21b

  • @CAVscout191 You should have picked 21B!

  • Ill stick with a Ranger Tab...

  • So these guys are combat engineers right? I wanna join up and was lookin at jobs and this looked good. Would this be a good job?

  • Essayons!

  • Sappers....Engineers.....Essay­ons!!!

  • Only those not brave enough to be a Sapper would be dumb enough to insult them. How pitiful u are.

  • As an Combat Engineer and an NCO of this MOS, I wish all my soldiers would strive to hold these virtues as "standard"!

  • engineers lead the way hooah

  • maxima if u ever do go to sapper school u r in for a rude awakening of what real engineers do ur a bridge crew member lol in my basic company every single 21C was a female talk to me when u reclass 21B chaging to 12B in october back to doing sapper shit all dismount bitch my unit is already doing it going to afghan soon all dismounted patrols and dismounted route clearence

  • You retards realize the word "hooah" is a dumbass term that only retards use right? Lesson 1 for the army, don't be a dumbass.

  • @Gabe343 That's not true at all

  • Hooah Just Made E-2 before basic, Signing up for this when I make Specialist. PV2 Johnson 21C Hoooah Engineers Lead the way!

  • @xXMaxima2000Xx

    i love people that make it seem like rank is just given to them LOL

  • @xXMaxima2000Xx  when you leave for basic? message me im also 21C

  • 21b hooah

  • Comment removed

  • we are the reall sapper hooahhhh . 12b bitchesss

  • royal corps of sappers can suck my bone! ARNY STRONG!!!!!

  • hear soon the all be one big unit

  • ARNY? the guy off gilbert grape?

  • @XxCRAZYxFACExX

    come to england and be a real sapper (spr) thats all the advice u need!! the country of the original sappers 1772 ( the royal corps of sappers and miners)

  • Why is there a womans voice on this video

  • there is a womans voice is because sapper leader course will let anyone com to it.. with that said only 23% actuallly graduate and 16 get the sapper tab

  • because theres a woman in the video women can be Sapper

  • @rcowboy4 women cannot be sappers.. that was just a women speaking for the video... women cant get into anything that is directly combat arms. however they can be MP's but that is not as dangerous.

  • And for all you guy's that think all Engineers (21 series)build schools and shit thats not so. You have B's that can be Mech/Light/Airborne/Air Assault; and theres alot of shit that a Enginner has to know besides patrolling, then theres the C's bridgebuilders and the construction and equipment operators in others. An Engineer NCO has to know everything an 11B does plus he has to know everthing from demo to bridging and you have to know how to spell.

  • Is it fair to say CE's are jack-of-all trade?

    I'm a 21b shipping out to fort leonard 20100427

  • @rarbot good luck i was there oct 08 to feb 09 just hope u get alpha company

  • @rarbot i ship 20100407 hooah.

  • Comment removed

  • oh also Remember 31b are bitches. ENGINEERS LEAD THE WAY HOOAH.........

  • These days any MOS can go to Sapper School; but you need to be up on your demo Calc's cause that fucks alot of people up. Marines attend too. It ain't no joke it's tuff; they try to stuff all the Specialized Enginneer Leadership that Lightfighters need plus all the TLP's and Patrolling phase of Ranger school in 30 long ass day's. It's expected of all NCO's in ABN/Light units to graduate; it's just like Jumpmaster in an ABN unit;

  • WTF?

    WHATS UP WITH THE MUSLIM MUSIC?

  • question, can Infantrymen go to Sapper school? I know that Sapper is the Combat Engineers Ranger school for the most part, but i really like how Sappers blow so much shit up with explosives instead of just gunning everything down like rangers do

  • 2:34, lol, bitchslap training.

  • Do Marines go through the sapper leader course??

  • Sappers, Rangers, Pathfinders, Special Forces are all elite Paratroopers. All have Special Skills and all are ARMY on the same team !

  • Excuse me! Women like myself can do the job sufficicntly. No need to hate on women Sappers! Dam

  • its not that its tradition that dont like getting messed up

  • Was fun times at the Sapper Leader Course.... had a blast there as cadre from 2003-2004

  • they ruined it by letting females go to sapper school.

  • if you go to the "zazzle" website... do a search for "sapperzulu"... A bunch of 12B Combat Engineer stuff.. including the Combat Engineer Badge!

  • If only your dumb ass knew that there are Rangers who end up washing out or not completing the Sapper leadership course... Why don't u get off the couch and go defend the country for a change...

  • Airborne sappers lead the way hooah! btw oldschooljoker, ur a faggot. I say again... Faggot.

  • i liv in australia and im 15 now i turn 16 in january u need to be 16 and a half to be a combate engineer and 17 to join anything else in the army im thinking of becoming a combat engineer a "sapper" if u will a aussie sapper if i do become 1 does any 1 hav any any tips for?

  • Looks like SF training.

  • Sapper school is better than ranger scool because Sappers don't wear small booty short in their units

  • wow your an ignorant child

  • haha Sapper oh wow, nothing but construction worker's who learn infantry, they are not where near a Ranger, they are just like Marines, every Marines is a Rifle man... construction worker with infantry skill's... not a big deal

  • How do you figure? A COMBAT Engineer's job description is "Infantryman with explosives." We very rarely build anything. Just because our MOS Title mas the word engineer in it doesn't mean we do the same thing as all the others.

    "Clear the breach!"

  • @SpartanSapper26 This is usually mission dependent. Our squad built everything from bathrooms to jungle gyms (for Iraqi National Army) overseas, and had various demolition tasks such as destroying caches. Sometimes we walked with our grunts for days on end, sometimes we were broken into small teams to accompany snipers or artillery. I've built 14 bridges to date, some permanant and some temporary(MGB's). I also have been trained to operate cranes,dozers and dumps (which i do in civilian life).

  • sapper daddy can, he takes away the pain and makes hurt feel good. engineers lead the way, 515 sappers lead the way hooah!

  • hey i thought sappers were "combat explosives techs"

  • Transportation Corp leads the way. Remember nothing happens until it moves.
