@Iwaaaaaaaaaan What you should REALLY be doing is studying for EOD. About 1/3 of AIT platoon were EOD drop outs and one of them made it to the last test and failed because the higher ups didn't like the way he diffused the bomb.
@lwaaaaaaaaaan You can only study so much, a lot of what you will learn during your phase one and phase two training will come from your mentor and sergeants that you work with, only piece of advice I can give you is, "Study hard, stay motivated, and make sure you have a strong reason to do what you have to do." do all that and you will be fine.
LMAO Mitchell yer a superstar lol CASE OF BEER I wonder how many u owe for this one, I mean it has to be easy to keep track so fast paced clicking on all cylinders LMFAO and hurt locker is the Troof!
PunkNJunk, most of these people commenting are PROBABLY somehow military.
As of now, I'm soo fucking close to graduating Redstone, and sure I've tapped a test here and there but MAN! EOD is really what you make it.Well I can at LEAST say that for school, soo far. If you think you're going to be a shitbag, well then you're a shitbag, but have a little confidence and you'll make it all the way through.
@dkmarine12345 Unless you are in Navy EOD shut the hell up there both putting there lives on the line and coming out ahead, no one branch is better they all serve there part
ummm no, most people dont get out of bct as pfc's, most get out as pv2's. you dont have to rank up to be in eod..... you pick it as your mos if your asvab score is high enough. then once you comeplete bct you go to redstone arsenal, in huntsville alabama.(may have been transfered to fort lee, in va) not sure.... they were relocating when i was there for 89b. .... i worked along side a lot of 89d.... not very many make it pass redstone, or pass for arb... so if you are going eod.... good luck.
@Malarkey31 Dude Afghanistan is awesome!! and i actually went with MP! my cousin spent 15 months as a MP in Afghanistan and had a blast! dotn be afraid of war. lol it aint as bad as whats going on on our streets over here .
@BigChiefMike basically they are infantrymen. main job is doing security routes. you usally have 1 driver, a team leader, and a gunner in a hummv. you also do other jobs like gaurd prisons and train the ANP.
@BigChiefMike they are pretty much infantrymen with a MP patch lol. they do everything over there. just think of MP meaning MultiPurpose. but your main thing is going in three man teams in a hummv, driver gunner team leader. and clearing out rooms, we do alot of that lol.
@Malarkey31 Dude Afghanistan is awesome!! and i actually went with MP! my cousin spent 15 months as a MP in Afghanistan and had a blast! dotn be afraid of war. lol it aint as bad as whats going on on our streets over here .
@Malarkey31 Once Afghanistan is over... The army will be clamping down so hard on enlistments..... By the time Afghanistan is over you will probably be over the age limit to join. They will not spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on not to deploy. You should man-up and speak with a recruiter. If not, you have no place in the military.
lolz! I doubt that, Just wait til we go to war with iran.
But sure, I'll sign up now, go to A-stan, then get thrown in jail for defending myself. That's living the army life! Afghanistan is flippin basket case and there's no more reason for us to be there. Your not being a soldier over there as much as your being a California highway patrol officer.
Once shit goes down with iran, which will be very soon, count me in and put me on the front line.
@Malarkey31 if you are going to wait for the "dangerous" part of the miltiary to be "over" don't join. it doesn't the help the Country in any way. ( unless of coarse you are not yet old enough) decide to join or decide not to don't wait until the war is over.
Whoever said I was afraid to enlist because I didn't want to go to war? I'm afraid of getting jailed for doing my job in afghanistan, which isn't a war by the way. We're not fighting a war, we're fighting a gang. A gang we can't win against given the backwards ROE regulations that our troops are told to follow over there. Sorry, I'm sitting this out. Send me an Army brocheour once we go to war with iran. Or perhaps if Gen. Petraeus faints again and doesn't recover, maybe ill go.
@Malarkey31 i don't want you in my military you little pussy, your comment below insulted all of the men who have made sacrifices in this war and you don't deserve to wear the same uniform as them
Lmao! I'm sorry sincerely, afghanistan isn't worth it. Call me up once we go to war with iran or north korea.
11B ftw!
Moreover, your gravely mistaken. I think whoever thought up the rules of engagment for afghanistan is a royal pussy. I think anyone who gladly accepts the rule of don't shoot until shot at has sand in their pussy. But I don't think our enlistee's who go into the military today are even aware of the red tape they need to abide by in A-stan.
I scored an 82 on my ASVAB, the line scores are what's important. Minimum score of 110 in the ST area of the ASVAB. I scored around 126. I'm going into MEPS for processing soon and from there I'll still be at home in the future soldier program until they ship me out to basic.
The AIT is tough as hell, high drop out rate. The video is good reference. When you are in the field, it's not nearly as relax as they are in the video. You NEED the brains and confidence. Make sure you know your shit, because choices you make when you become team lead ARE life or death. When you are a grunt, don't second guess your team lead. I like TheKILLAHUNT advice. Go to another MOS first and cross-train later.
to guys that are currently in EOD. how do you like it? im sure its not like the video and what the recruiters tell ya, but i took my test and qaulify for the job and have the 7 day reserve on it right now to decide if i want it. is the training super hard? i know it sure as hell aint easy dealing with explosives, but is it a good job to take? i wanted 31B (MP) but its all filled, this sounded interesting though. looking for any advice i can get.
for your information army71988 your wrong and you probably know nothing because there are plenty of fuzzies that are in EOD training and the reason why most people graduate EOD school is because its longer than a year and everyone who graduates has met the requirement of a year of service giving them E-3... and for whoever is going to go into navschool EOD good luck its not that easy.. many people fail out
I DEP'd in for EOD a month ago, it was the second to last spot, people are joining for whatever they can get. I want EOD because of the Civilian opportunities it can provide whenever i get out. my ship date is 20101102. HOOAH
@army71988 IDK Where you heard that from? My recruiters gonna have me signed for it within 2 weeks. I go to basic, go to AIT A school at Redstone in Alabama and then AIT C school at Eglin AFB Florida. I don't think my recruiter would be signing me for it if I wasn't going to be able to get in until I rank up.
@REDLINE25 go to goarmy.com and look it up bro i have 2 friends that are EOD. they (recruiter) don't tell U the little shit man and if it's not in write then it's not going to happen. good luck to U.
@army71988 yea i've been to goarmy.com almost every day since I decided to join the Army. It says to go in as any other private to 9 weeks and 3 days of basic training, then 10 weeks in Alabama, then 28 weeks in Florida. I mean if my recruiter is telling me that, and its on the website, i don't think they're both wrong. Maybe your friends were confused because most EOD candidates are already promoted to E-3 by the time they graduate AIT.
@army71988 Oh i'm definitley going to have it in writing. I'm having the job reserved before I go to meps (even tho I wouldn't need to, he said people aren't exactly signing up at the door for EOD), and thats in writing, and am also going to make sure its in writing on my contract.
@azst52 not to many I.E.D s runnin around the streets of arkansas. dont know bout anyothers... join the Army or any other branch if you want to do EoD
@queenofhell2009able i dont know about other states but in PA the national guard is basically active duty, the 28th ID is pretty decorated and has been in every conflict since WWII. hooah bloody buckets!
Ha, when I went through Redstone we had DS's to deal with.... Just be glad you actually have NCO's that know what it takes to be EOD and not 89B's and such telling you what to do.
