Hey Matt, Great Video! I wish we had this outlet when I joined in '86. Keep up the good work, Doc !!
God Bless the U S Navy Amen Thank You for Your Service
I was the equivalent in the Royal Navy, serving In frigates, we operated alone, unless we were deployed for a long time a Dr was borne usually a very young just qualified fresh of the box. Did fresh cases, twice a day, responsible ensuring the ships company were in date for all medicals eg. Aircrew, Diving and Dental, all first aid training, health and safety inspections, for the workshops, galley, attend all medical emergencies, evacuation to shore and aero medical transfers h I me. On call for flyjng stations and Replenishment at sea, ordering and maintaining the correct level of medical stores. Health lectures to ships company visiting a foreign port. Met the corpsman from the USS Stark and Aubrey Fitch, good lads. Served on 5 ships duringmy 22 years leaving as a Chief Petty Officer, best job in world being the only medic on a war canoe.
Is it common for a female HM to have to serve on a ship? I thought HM was "shore intensive." If so, would she ever have to be alone in the medical bay with patients?
Short answer; Females serve on a ship, sub, carriers, and shore. There will be times where it will be just the HM and a patient in the medical bay. I'll post a good video explaining this and female HM roles.
Everyone wants to be a freakin HM, the job is never available 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
Yeah, also the HM billet opens and closes a lot which is a good thing and a bad thing since we're constantly overmanned. There's plenty of other jobs, down the line you could also have the possibility of of rerating. It's a processes but I've come across of people switch rates later in their career.
Hai What About Information About Combat Corpsman FMF Fleet Marine Force In The Line Duty Battle Field Attached To Marine Corps To Help Medical Reason And Kill And Battle Field 🇺🇸💪🏻⚓️🪖🎓🙋🏼♂️
What MOS is corpsman in the ship? I planning to enlist nextweek
the rate is HM.
Just liked an subbed, keep up the good work!
What did you score on the asvab?
I’m leaving for bootcamp in 15 days an HM , that being a primarily shore duty rating, how do I get put on a ship?
It's a luck of the draw. Some of my classmates got a ship right out of A school. Your more than likely gonna get sent to FMTB then to a clinic/hospital. Some go greenside. Its really needs of the Navy. Getting orders to a ship is harder because there isn't many billets available. Im picking orders right now, and there are tons of billets for HM of East and West Coast for ships. Its timing and luck.
Going in as HMDA and i NEED to be stationed on a ship i would die if i got stationed at a hospital 😥
It's rare for Corpsman to go on a ship, even more so for Dental Techs. It is possible though. Buddy of mine went straight to a Carrier after C-School. In life, you're not always gonna get what you want. My advice is to just make the most out of everything. There's always pros and cons to everything. Focus on the pros.
What did you score on the asvab to become a corpsman?
i scored a 78 and got corpsman
Got 48 and became a corpsman
I scored 98.
Does anyone know what a dental corpsman would be doing exactly?
how to prepare for asvab to get a good score to be able to apply to corpsman ?
Manazuri Romero I would recommend looking up ASVAB for dummys and just study. It helped me get corpsman. Good luck!
Asvab is pretty easy its basically high school stuff. I score a 53 on it and still got corpsman, reading comprehension and math are the most important things you wanna shoot for tho.
Manazuri Romero I think you have to get above a 50 to qualify I got a 55
So after i attend a school do i immediatley attend c school after or do i have to be a HM For a specific time
Depends on your orders. Some go immediately after Aschool and for some they go to the fleet for their first command then they are given a Cschool after. Both are available for what the Navy needs at the time of request
Hi what is the asvab score needed to be qualified as a Corpsman?
hey what's up bro !! I currently trying to join the navy as or corpsman. I want to go into PT tech but I know that it might not be offered what can I do if there's a specific C school that I want to go into but at the time they aren't offering it ? What C school did you do By the way
Kevin Alecio i was asking your exact same question 21 years ago. I was in for 3 years, worked as a Personnel Specialist. Decided i wanted to become a Corpsman. I just KNEW i could get that PT tech NEC. after all i was top of my class in Personnelman A school so i can get top of Corps School as well and get my choice of A school. Sadly that didnt occur and almost every male in the class ended up with a Divisional infantry unit. (Best thing everrr) A few people got C schools. None got the pt tech. It truly is needs of the Navy and sometimes how you work the system. The good ol boy system is alive and well so ensure you impress your instructors and maybe theres a Command Master Chief looking out for you in the process. Best of luck!!
Why is that background noise?
Hey Matt Owens I just took the oath and I leave Dec.4 any advice for Navy Boot Camp would be liked
Awesome! Navy bootcamp is mostly alot of mental and a little bit of physical. On the mental side, go in with a clean slate take nothing to heart but listen and try to understand why things are being said and done and come graduation day it will all make sense. On the physical part be sure you can do mile and a half run under 13mins, practice pushups and sit ups for 2mins each bust out as many as you can! Last thing you want is not being able to graduate with your division because you can't pass your PFA. Lastly, study the book they gave you at MEPS and learn as much as you can and get familiar with ranks, rates, sailors creed and etc. That's honestly pretty much it. Have fun and just remember it will go by so quick!
Thank so much man I really appreciate it you know I’ve getting/asking for advice a lot tho I’m scared of boot camp I just wanna be prepared for anything and I’m gonna take your advice for the physical part my run time and push-ups and sit-ups is terrible but I got a lot of people cheering me on and if I got this far maybe there’s something bigger planned for me anyways again thanks for the advice and continue to keep pumping out new videos dude you honestly give the best advice and for people that heading to the Navy or is having trouble like me then they need your advice bro
SnappierJaeBird hey I leave dec 10 what’s your rate ?
HM
SnappierJaeBird niceee! Same. I’m doing corpsman dental tho 😎
Can you be a corpsman if you are colorblind?
Yes, certain Cschools you won't qualify for but as far as Aschool, yes you could graduate as a corpsman being colorblind
Hey there. I know you made this video a while back, but I hope you see this comment! I’m leaving for boot no dec 10, 2018. My rate is corpsman dental assistant. I’m excited for this journey and I was wondering if corpsman even get the chance to go on ships often because I heard that they barely even deploy. Is this true and also do you know Much about corpsman dental assistants. Please let me know I would highly appreciate it 😎
Awesome! Enjoy the pipeline from meps, bootcamp and a-school. It goes by so quick. Since your orders already have a C-school attached to them you will stay at Fort Sam after you and your A school class graduate. Corpsman are deploying ALL THE TIME. A ship or sub doesn't leave the pier for underway or deployments unless IDC/ babydoc corpsman are onboard. As for as you a dental assistant deploying it's possible but you will have more billets for the actual clinic and shore duty. I covered it on a video but having a NEC(C-school) narrows you down to certain platforms.
Matt Owens so doing corpsman dental your saying gives me more options of places to choose from or what kinda confused. What is the Navy of the video you made about this ?
Gives you less options but you will only have certain options as far as types of ships you can go to and certain clinics you can be at.
Matt Owens are the choices that I would have bad. Would you say going corpsman dental is bad or ? Do you happen to know any corpsman in the dental side and what have they said to you as far as what it’s like ?
There's no bad choices as a corpsman you just have limited options as far as where and what commands you can choose; which is the same with every NEC (C-school)
Ever gonna go green side?
Are you an IDC? if not are you the baby doc?
I'm not an IDC but i am a baby doc on board.
Do corpsman get weekends off
Corpsman are always on watch. Even when out around civilians you are still to respond since having medical knowledge if need be. While on a ship we have duty every 4-8days which are 24hr days depending on schedule
Seriously? Ah, NO..In A school, if you don't have duty, maybe. In your Hospital duty, depends on wards. In the Fleet, NEVER..
Helpful and gorgeous, ok cool
Well thank you!
Matt Owens 😍🤤 you’re welcome!
