i love how you can tell which one is which right off the bat because one has had the entire soul drained out of his body and you can see in his eyes that he just has no motivation left to offer and the other one is in the Air Force
Great video. I was a former Marine in Okinawa in the 80s (I use to party at the E-club in Kadena) and now in the US Army in Korea. I am a Chief Warrant Officer with 26 years in service and three combat tours. My next assignment is my last. Keep it up and stay in as long as you can. Semper Fi.
Kyle! Thank you so much for all your videos! I've been considering joining the Air Force and you have been a major source of information! I appreciate what you do for us the ones wanting to join the military and for the nation as well!
+Benjamin Sztankovics they call us marines jarheads, we call the navy semen, and we sometimes call the air force airheads, but we all get the job done and that's all that matters, but who doesn't like a little fun in competition. Oorah!
I ship off for the Navy in 2 weeks and I'll be becoming the Navy's public/media specialist which is Mass Communication Specialist. I'm super stoked! Thanks for your service man
Wow 😮 both of you as brothers being serving in the country. Thank you for you guys service! Bet Your parents are very proud of you both! May God bless both of you be safe and healthy! Very proud to see you guys serving in the military!!!!!!!👍👍👏👏💪💪🙏🙏😇😇😁💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
All I could think about for the entirety of this video was, "COCO'S CURRY." I left the island in 2009 and miss CoCos so much! Great videos, keep it up!
Gentlemen. Almost looked like you was about to eat mud. In my almost 29 years in the Air Force, enjoyed the friendly rivalries that existed between the Services. Good to listen to two grounded servicemen who are willing to educate those not familiar with life in the uniforms services. Keep leaning forwards. Makes this retired Chief proud for sure.
It's so funny because both of my parents served in the military as Marines and I told them I wanted to join the military, but I wanted to go Air Force . They weren't all for it but like you guys said it's what I want to do and I have a reason for wanting to go Air Force, just like they had a reason to go Marines. I don't have anything against the Marines, how could I? I Was born into it Lol.
Im actually married to a Marine and i leave for Air Force BMT May 5th 2015. I grew up Air Force (Both parents were active duty), A LOT of your videos have helped me learn what I need to know. So thanks!!
Wow my brother was at Camp Hansen while I was at Kadena Air Force Base years ago. We had Coco's together before too. I had a good time with his Marine friends and he had a good time with my Air Force friends. Good times. Miss him.
The difference between an E-3 in the Air Force and a E-3 in the Marines on Okinawa? The Air Force E-3 (A1C) has his own room and can drive and purchase a POV. Marine E-3 is riding the "Green Line" bus, has a roommate, doesn't have days off...must be granted "LIBERTY" for time off, single Marines must have a Battle Buddy while on Liberty while off base/off duty. Huge game-changer!
S Ballard That's because Marines in Japan are more likely to drive drunk, sexually assault people, etc. They kinda ruin it for everybody else stationed there.
+jeff carpentier some people think that airmen are pussies, shit pisses me off man, then again my doge picture probably doesn't help but I just like the pic its funny to me
jeff carpentier not so sure the marine brother has a dead look in his eyes. It's dangerous he looks like a trained killer or like he would kill ruthlessly if he had to.
I can't believe I just watched this entire video haha! Good advice on that money stuff at the end. I'm an E6 and that's some stuff even I could use some reminding of. BTW this video is like the 4th one down after searching for just the words "Air Force". That's pretty impressive. Good luck with everything!
lol the usmc commercials do work, i saw the one with this dude running "toward the sounds of chaos" around 7 years ago when i was 8-9 years old (15 now) and i wanted to be a marine ever since
I feel like I am in the same situation. I am Air Force, my neighbors a Marine, and we live in Okinawa as well (go CoCos). So much of what you guys talked about is exactly what we talked, and he even gave me a Sergeant's POV of the Marines. I think Air Force definitely has a better living
I really like this vlog. I've already watched it twice strait through, because I'm struggling to decide if Marine or Airforce best suits me. I hope you can make videos with you two showing the pros & cons of each lifestyle. To me it seems marines are cool in the military scene and airforce is cool in the life-style scene. I don't like how pay is the same even if marines are treated like dirt while they risk their lives, while airforce keeps clean without touching the battleground. Where does this all weigh equally? What keeps marines motivated even if inequality treated?
+Hakujin Mike No all Marine's are in the middle of the battlefield. Every branch of service has support guys and guys who are on the frontlines. Every branch has jobs that are easier than others and jobs that are suckier than others. I was an F-16 crew chief in the Air Force and we had to work 12 hour shifts and be out in the cold or heat getting jets in the air. I wasn't on the frontline, but we took a lot of indirect fire on the base. Being lower ranked you'll pretty much always get the sucky job, but as you progress and gain rank you can make the difference in how subordinates are treated. I got out as a Staff Sergeant, I never forgot where I came from and I always treated the guys with the respect that they deserved. Hope this helps a little.
Excellent insight! Prior AF here, trying to get my son, 22, off his butt and into the AF. Aim high, right? Great job, bros! Semper Fidelis! And I did make E-5 under 4 years in the AF -80-'84, CE, Electrician. Don't really hear of that anymore to my understanding and even back then it was rare. It's what you make of it as well.
Really enjoyed this video and seeing the contrast between brothers from two different branches. The thing about the TV is Soooo true, my wife had us get one not because we needed it but because uhhh hmmm(cough) WE wanted it. Great vid. Watched the whole thing an enjoyed the cat as well, you guys are lucky to be stationed so closely to one another.
Love your videos Kyle. If everything goes as plan I'll meet up with my recruiter again in a month or two to go to meps and sign in and everything and hopefully leave soon after my HS graduation in May. I've planned on going to the military my whole life and it's scary and exciting at the same time to know that I'll be in the military(Airforce) by this year. But I hope you keep posting videos and or vlogs as they are very informational and enjoyable to watch to get a glimpse of what life is like in the Airforce.
Can somebody enlighten me on why people laugh at people in the Airforce, what type of IDIOT would willingly choose to go die in a stupid ass war? Going to die for a country /government that gives two shits for them
+Addison Sarter They aren't choosing to go die. They are serving their country and showing that they would truly die for it. Some go for the experience, some go for the brotherhood. All do it because they love their country. Airmen typically get desk jobs and sit around all day. They aren't risking their lives. Pilots, Jtac, and Pararescue do though. That's small compared to the Army and Marine MOSs that put your life on the line.
+Old glory I appreciate the answer, but somebody like myself who can't afford college at the moment and would like to get it paid for by joining the military but at the same time doesn't wanna risk their life for a country that shows they don't care about veterans/ or doesn't doesn't wanna risk their lives dying for a war they don't believe in, is not "weak or a pussy" I think it's simply called being "smart".
That’s crazy. I’m here because my aunt is either an E-7 or E-8 in the Air Force and my dad was in the Marines but luckily got out right before 9/11. My name is Tyler and my brothers name is Kyle haha. Thank you for all the info with the Air Force, I have to wait until Monday to scheduled another ASVAB!
I'm in the Army reserve right now to finish school. If I could enlist again, I would have gone active duty because I really want to travel. Only question I have for you is if it's possible to take online classes while you're stationed overseas?
Since Kyle hasn't answered this yet, yes you can take classes. While I'm on the subject, if an Airman wants to use any Tuition Assistance (currently $4500 per fiscal year for tuition costs, fees aren't covered anymore), they need a passing PT test, supervisor's approval, and typically have to be finished with their CDCs and upgrade training (which takes a year after they get to their first base). They're free to take the classes out of their own pocket if they don't want to use TA. No idea how the Army handles this, although I do know of several soldiers who are taking classes right now so it's definitely possible. Damn, I kinda sound like a recruiter...oops...
I think in the Okinawa bases there are 4 University/Colleges where you can do online classes for certificates, bachelor's and post graduate degrees. I know two of them are University of Maryland and University of Phoenix. :)
I had a student teacher who was in the Army. He talked about an Amrt exclusive program called "green to gold" although it might be officer exclusive. Do a little research to see what it's about if you want to learn more.
Kyle Merkle The short answer is .. yes. You can use TA after your fist year assuming you have no disciplinary issues. Most commanders like it if you have already completed SSD1. Aslo you dont HAVE to take classes online. Most stations have satellite school from actual universities at the education center. The bigger posts Conus have major universities. I know Bragg has UNC, Schofield has HPU.
I'm an MH-53 Pave Low Air Force Vet. Now out, 45 and retired. I like to see a brotherhood among branches. I was Special Ops and worked with Rangers, Delta Force, Seals and Marines. This was a refreshing video to watch. I got SRA. below the zone, pretty much 6 months early E-4 pay. Keep it up guys and God speed too you both.
+Kyle Gott my cousin was station there for the navy he fly p-8 spy plane / anti submarine his patron was called mad foxes I want to be marine now he station near Syria
Guam is pretty cool. I was in the Navy and was stationed there at the Naval Air Station. That base was closed down after I left the Navy. But basically, the Naval Air Station moved to Andersen Air Force base. I love their PX and Tarague Beach at the northern end of the base.
Very stuck in making a decision right now. I want to go to the military but my education is the most important to me. How would u describe the time to do college. I plan on going to the corps and working in intelligence ... I've read they work until 5 , would I still be able to take classes and get a bachelors in 5 years ? I'm a pretty humble person and my work comes first
Thank you so much. I have decides to go Navy I feel it fits me the most and since I want to be a lawyer I feel like going in first and working on my bachelor's while I'm in would be best for my pipeline . thank you so much for commenting back , very very helpful info.
+jocelyn rodriguez the Air Force is the closest to civilian life. It's the most relaxed branch if your main goal is to study. Also, let them pay for it. Don't get into debt. If you did come in with a degree, they don't allow you to get another degree if you happened to want one. So you would have to wait until your contract was up and use your GI Bill. Which could be frustrating. Had a co-worker who came in enlisted with a bachelors and was not allowed to pursue another degree while active duty.
Im joining the Navy and im enlisting to be an HM. But originally i decided that i wanted to do ABH. Just go to this website navygirl.org/RatingCards.htm and just look through them!
It depends on what you want to do. The Army has more careers but you will most likely be deployed longer. The Navy has shorter deployments(correct me if I'm wrong) but has fewer jobs(again, correct me if I'm wrong) and you will be most likely be deployed on a ship. So, there are a few variables. But if you want to take the combat route(but not infantry), Artillery or Military Police would be best if you want to see combat but not go to infantry. For Navy, Corpsman(medic in the Navy, can be deployed w/ Marines) is a good choice. If you want to be an officer, you might be able to join an ANGLICO. It's a group of mostly marines w/ some Navy officers that calls in air/artillery.
What do you like computers, trucks, management, combat, flight, intel, admins, animals, medical? Did you take the ASVAB test yet, if so send me your test results. I can tell you what you are qualified to do. I'd be very happy to help you out. I am a Human Resource Specialist (42A) In the Army. Feel free to send me an email: Joshuagray135@gmail.com If you would like any advice or assistance.
Not true. Entry level PT standards for the Marine Corps are 1.5mi in under 13:30. 2 pull ups. And 44 crunches 2mins. Regular PT eval is 3mi 22mins, 25 pull ups/ 2min flexed arm hang, and 150 crunches under 2mins.
+Johnny Frost who said entry? I'm saying that's the requirements the corps strives it's marines to achieve. male marines do not perform the flex arm hang... i have no clue where you got the 22 minute 3 mile... max time depending on age is 28 minutes
The coincidence of both being in Japan is crazy to me haha
Facts
Dude with the cheese hanging off his chin at the beginning...CLEARLY the Marine. And I mean that in the best way possible, lol.
Right? LMAO!!!!
i went to school with your little bro, i had no idea he went into the marines, nice
you wanna know the difference....look at the way each of them eats
i love how you can tell which one is which right off the bat because one has had the entire soul drained out of his body and you can see in his eyes that he just has no motivation left to offer and the other one is in the Air Force
Great video. I was a former Marine in Okinawa in the 80s (I use to party at the E-club in Kadena) and now in the US Army in Korea. I am a Chief Warrant Officer with 26 years in service and three combat tours. My next assignment is my last. Keep it up and stay in as long as you can. Semper Fi.
Cw3? 4? Nice man. What's your mos?
I miss being stationed at Camp Kinser, Okinawa, Japan, for a total of 8 years there.
I'm just going to say that that is a typical Marine. Guzzled down the food.
You are so right.
It's the same with the Navy. After 25 years of leaving the Navy, my dad still eats faster than I've ever seen anyone eat
Its cause he ain't talking. He's just stuffing his face.
+ACSR Gaming it's because he has food in front of him
so the marine played with gi joes, the airman with barbies... yeah, that says it all.
jk only love for all branches
And you played with...yourself?
@@whittyhuton4622 lol
Kyle your bro should post videos like you do as a Marine.
The financial advice you give is golden. This goes beyond the military, this is something everyone needs to hear.
Kyle! Thank you so much for all your videos! I've been considering joining the Air Force and you have been a major source of information! I appreciate what you do for us the ones wanting to join the military and for the nation as well!
I was literally just focusing on how your brother was eating the entire time lmao
You can tell he's a jarhead... Eat it now and taste it later..... oorah !!!!!
yes
+Benjamin Sztankovics yes
+Benjamin Sztankovics the name frogman is based off the UDT navy seal divers that go from water to land instead of some using helos
+Benjamin Sztankovics they call us marines jarheads, we call the navy semen, and we sometimes call the air force airheads, but we all get the job done and that's all that matters, but who doesn't like a little fun in competition. Oorah!
+Hunt16 : remember this? " A marine doesn't ask if it can be done, a Marine only ask how long isn't going to take....
I ship off for the Navy in 2 weeks and I'll be becoming the Navy's public/media specialist which is Mass Communication Specialist. I'm super stoked! Thanks for your service man
That’s so cool that you guys get to share this experience together!
Wow 😮 both of you as brothers being serving in the country. Thank you for you guys service!
Bet Your parents are very proud of you both! May God bless both of you be safe and healthy! Very proud to see you guys serving in the military!!!!!!!👍👍👏👏💪💪🙏🙏😇😇😁💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Watching your videos are the highlight of my day when I have nothing else better to do. And the fact that it's a hour long video! Keep it up
Thanks to both of you for your service. Much respect. -CPL. 2D LAR Bn. 2nd MAR DIV. 0341, 1999-2003.
Thanks for all the Questions & Answer you talk about in this videos
you guys are awesome! very nice to watch this and learn more about the military.
My two sons, Nick 23-Marines, Zane 20-Air Force and I am a Navy brat. Love the military!
All I could think about for the entirety of this video was, "COCO'S CURRY." I left the island in 2009 and miss CoCos so much! Great videos, keep it up!
Thank you both for your service
Thank you guys for your service!
Gentlemen. Almost looked like you was about to eat mud. In my almost 29 years in the Air Force, enjoyed the friendly rivalries that existed between the Services. Good to listen to two grounded servicemen who are willing to educate those not familiar with life in the uniforms services. Keep leaning forwards. Makes this retired Chief proud for sure.

Well ur not respect go af
How was your Air Force experience?
You guys are awsome you are brave enough to put your life on the life on the line for us!!!!!!
Thanks for answering my question guys. Helped a lot.
Also USAF spec ops go through jump school, sere, free fall, combat dive, and qualify in more weapons. (Hardly the corperation life)
Thanks for all the information gentlemen, I'm currently having to decided between the air force and Marines. This was very helpful for me
ZephyrStorm same
A choice between brains or brawns. Both are super respectable, good luck to any future Airmen and Marines!
Thanks for your service guys!
Very cool video. Probably the longest youtube vid I ever watched all the way through. Thanks!
Im actually married to a Marine and i leave for Air Force BMT May 5th 2015. I grew up Air Force (Both parents were active duty), A LOT of your videos have helped me learn what I need to know. So thanks!!
Married to a Marine and your going to be in the AF? I don't know how y'all will possibly be stationed together. Good luck on that one...
Shannon Paton I wish you best at tech school! :)
The food looks so good!
Cool video idea. My brother and I were also USAF-USMC (I was AF). We were stationed three hours from one another from 2006-08. Good times.
This interview is awesome! Very informative. Best of luck to both of the men.
Wow my brother was at Camp Hansen while I was at Kadena Air Force Base years ago. We had Coco's together before too. I had a good time with his Marine friends and he had a good time with my Air Force friends. Good times. Miss him.
+stronghumblefriend He's Still in the military?
+scrapsodope no we are both out the military now.
The difference between an E-3 in the Air Force and a E-3 in the Marines on Okinawa? The Air Force E-3 (A1C) has his own room and can drive and purchase a POV. Marine E-3 is riding the "Green Line" bus, has a roommate, doesn't have days off...must be granted "LIBERTY" for time off, single Marines must have a Battle Buddy while on Liberty while off base/off duty. Huge game-changer!
S Ballard
That's because Marines in Japan are more likely to drive drunk, sexually assault people, etc. They kinda ruin it for everybody else stationed there.
I think that’s just Japan
Once again super helpful, ironically I was thinking about the financial aspect and the end was really helpful
Perfect thing to have on in the background while writing up a Marine Corps history PowerPoint.
Air Force guy looks like he could beat the hell out of his Marine brother.
lol looks can be deceiving tho! They both have nice bodies ;)
+jeff carpentier some people think that airmen are pussies, shit pisses me off man, then again my doge picture probably doesn't help but I just like the pic its funny to me
well im not hiding it......
+jeff carpentier The Marine guy is swinging with the wing. Not as salty as a grunt
jeff carpentier not so sure the marine brother has a dead look in his eyes. It's dangerous he looks like a trained killer or like he would kill ruthlessly if he had to.
"You guys are the reason why we have curfews." - K. Gott died laughing.
Great video kyle thank you brother for his service please
VERY informative thank you for posting!
Your brother is a clown 😂😂 "from the moment I left for boot camp, I don't care" lmao bring him back!
LMAO that Marine is like, "uh huh" "yep" munch munch. 😂
I can't believe I just watched this entire video haha! Good advice on that money stuff at the end. I'm an E6 and that's some stuff even I could use some reminding of. BTW this video is like the 4th one down after searching for just the words "Air Force". That's pretty impressive. Good luck with everything!
Loved the video, watched the whole thing
At 21:28 - 21:40 I didn't hear one thing kyle said because his brother was playing with the cat :)
Had to pause this shit 2 mins in and make a pizza.... -_-
ikr this made me so hungry
Watched the whole thing! Great video!
lol the usmc commercials do work, i saw the one with this dude running "toward the sounds of chaos" around 7 years ago when i was 8-9 years old (15 now) and i wanted to be a marine ever since
THIS IS WELL NEEDED
IOWA?! You guys are from Iowa!!!! Me too how crazy is that lol!
+Kyle Gott Thats crazy born and raised in Iowa city. Small world indeed bro
lol....Hawkeyes..Hi guys 'm from Spencer IOWA.
It's not that crazy
Boats N Hoes Des Moines Marine Corps Poolee
quad cities boi
I can't believe I watched this entire thing. It was really good though.
I feel like I am in the same situation. I am Air Force, my neighbors a Marine, and we live in Okinawa as well (go CoCos). So much of what you guys talked about is exactly what we talked, and he even gave me a Sergeant's POV of the Marines. I think Air Force definitely has a better living
I have a question for the next Q&A, What's the cat's name?
"you guys are the reason we have curfew" hahahah if i have a fucking dollar every time.....
Bc it's true..
Jon Frego may i know why? just curious...?
Benjamin Bernard Seng Marines work hard and party hard haha
Bc they don't know how to control themselves. And most them are criminals. Navy is the reason the curfue is even worse now tho
Thank you both.

Saw the Iowa sweatshirt, where are you guys from? I'm from the Dubuque area.
Des Moines here. Weird seeing people from Iowa on youtube lol
I used to live in Waterloo. Crazy small world
Thanks for your service
Really enjoyed this video and seeing the contrast between brothers from two different branches.
The thing about the TV is Soooo true, my wife had us get one not because we needed it but because uhhh hmmm(cough) WE wanted it.
Great vid. Watched the whole thing an enjoyed the cat as well, you guys are lucky to be stationed so closely to one another.
I can't focus, because of the deliciousness.
Yess!
I could tell right away just by looking at you guys that you're an Airman, and he's a Marine. No offense.
Love your videos Kyle. If everything goes as plan I'll meet up with my recruiter again in a month or two to go to meps and sign in and everything and hopefully leave soon after my HS graduation in May.

Thank you so much. I have decides to go Navy I feel it fits me the most and since I want to be a lawyer I feel like going in first and working on my bachelor's while I'm in would be best for my pipeline . thank you so much for commenting back , very very helpful info.
+jocelyn rodriguez the Air Force is the closest to civilian life. It's the most relaxed branch if your main goal is to study. Also, let them pay for it. Don't get into debt. If you did come in with a degree, they don't allow you to get another degree if you happened to want one. So you would have to wait until your contract was up and use your GI Bill. Which could be frustrating.
Had a co-worker who came in enlisted with a bachelors and was not allowed to pursue another degree while active duty.

yall are great im going to be going for the air force at the end of this semester
Brother stationed with u in oki. thats the dopest scenario ever straight up
If I were to join, what would be a cool job in army active duty that isn't infantry? And navy? Trying to decide which one
Im joining the Navy and im enlisting to be an HM. But originally i decided that i wanted to do ABH. Just go to this website navygirl.org/RatingCards.htm and just look through them!
It depends on what you want to do. The Army has more careers but you will most likely be deployed longer. The Navy has shorter deployments(correct me if I'm wrong) but has fewer jobs(again, correct me if I'm wrong) and you will be most likely be deployed on a ship. So, there are a few variables. But if you want to take the combat route(but not infantry), Artillery or Military Police would be best if you want to see combat but not go to infantry. For Navy, Corpsman(medic in the Navy, can be deployed w/ Marines) is a good choice. If you want to be an officer, you might be able to join an ANGLICO. It's a group of mostly marines w/ some Navy officers that calls in air/artillery.
Navy AW. look it up. there is like 5 sub rating.
What do you like computers, trucks, management, combat, flight, intel, admins, animals, medical? Did you take the ASVAB test yet, if so send me your test results. I can tell you what you are qualified to do. I'd be very happy to help you out. I am a Human Resource Specialist (42A) In the Army. Feel free to send me an email: Joshuagray135@gmail.com If you would like any advice or assistance.
***** Whats your definition of cool ? Do you want a trade or a combat MOS or both ?

Great Video.
Is an airwinger just a POG?
Karla Estrada yep
Unless your infantry, piloting, or medic/corpsman in any branch, your'e most likely a POG. Only 10% see combat.
USMC PT= 3 miles in 18 minutes, 20 pull ups, and 100 crunches in under 2 minutes
Not true. Entry level PT standards for the Marine Corps are 1.5mi in under 13:30. 2 pull ups. And 44 crunches 2mins. Regular PT eval is 3mi 22mins, 25 pull ups/ 2min flexed arm hang, and 150 crunches under 2mins.
+Johnny Frost who said entry? I'm saying that's the requirements the corps strives it's marines to achieve. male marines do not perform the flex arm hang... i have no clue where you got the 22 minute 3 mile... max time depending on age is 28 minutes
+Johnny Frost and 20 pull ups is still the max for score
+Johnny Frost Anand max crunches for score is still 100
+Alex Manns I thought you meant entry level. Sorry bout that. I'm going into recruiting duty right now and I'm learning new things.
I'm also from Iowa and I find that really cool
enjoyed the whole video
