  • dude that was tits. i just got assigned MOS 15W UAV Operator at MEPS on 20080612 and i am fuckin PSYCHED

  • thats awesome... we got stuck flying the thing in Iraq part time... as 11B's in a RECON platoon it wasnt exactly the thing we wanted to do, but we made the most of it! it gets a little old but with some creativity (see above) it can also be a good time! good luck with everything brother...

  • yeah most deff. but how could you be an 11B and a 15W. did you train for both? cause i know my AIT is gunna be like 30 weeks or something insane like that

    btw just got assigned to B Co 27th Infantry Brigade in Syracuse NY. you still in?

  • we were one of the first units to fly the Raven in country... we did a 2 week train up in Redstone Arsenal Alabama with the guys from AeroVironment (the creators). i didnt get an additional skill set identifier... just an 11B30P

    and I got out shortly after i got home from Iraq!

  • instead of a "controlled crash landing" we decided to just catch the thing

see all

  • Does the plane have any sort of auto levelling/height feature? I noticed when you let go of the controls it pulled up so you could catch it nicely.

  • @GarrettHarer @OperationRebuild

    15W here myself!

    Leaving for basic at FT. Jackson in Feb. Super, super excited!

    See you both at AIT I guess!

    HOOAH

  • @OperationRebuild haha very nice. See you in Ft Huachuca in July!

  • @OperationRebuild Same here. BCT mid-May at Ft Sill! I cant wait!

  • LIKE A BOSS.

  • Skill !

  • LOL... Good show!!!

  • Dude I WISH we'd had these things when I was in a recon platoon in the 101st, would have really added to our capabilities. That was about 17 years ago though.

  • 15E here we fix what the 15W's break lmao

  • WOW, thats amazing!
