- We got an inside look at what it's like on the first day for new freshmen, known as "Swabs," at the United States Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut. Day one marks the beginning of "Swab Summer," a challenging seven-week basic training program all future cadets are required to complete. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all swabs entered a 14-day restriction-of-movement period, known as ROM. According to the Academy’s superintendent, all 271 swabs tested negative for COVID-19. Their training officially began on day 15, which included a physical fitness exam, haircuts, sailing lessons, and drill practice on the Academy's Parade Field. Training is overseen by the Cadre, a group of juniors tasked with leading the swabs through the seven-week program.

What New Coast Guard Swabs Go Through On Their First Day At The Academy | Boot Camp
I’m sure the cadets are so happy that the drill sergeants can’t get in their face
@CJ Jacobs screamy motivational person then
😂😂I'm sayin bruhhhh
You in military?
They are called Company Commanders
@@itzdylan7665 ohh cool I didn't know cause it's not the army😭😭
The Swabs got tested for covid with Swabs

Good 1🤣😂
The swabs were swabbed with swabs.
Lol
8:01 my guy got caught in 4K 😂😂😂 he will forever be a meme in his squad now
Yooo Those two guys in the back had me screaming they went the complete opposite direction 💀 8:03
Yooooo how did that happen 😂😂🤣
If there was an eye near by he would have died
"3.7 gpa"

7:58 The poor dude in the back not noticing everyone turned left...
😂😂
Ohhhh
😂
😂
😭😭😭😂
You know it’s fire when this narrator narrate
So many crazy things happening right now. Seeing these kids committing themselves to serve gives me hope. Allowing themselves to be yelled at, marching logn hours in the humid heat while wearing mask...who would put themselves through that? And one of these kids may one day save your life or the life of a parent, son, or daughter loss at sea or caught in a hurricane. Nothing but respect. Thanks Business Insider for sharing!
Conneticut is not humid nor hot in the summer.
@@superiorlobster8888maybe not like alabama but it is hot and humid
8:00 Aight imma head out
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Lmaoo
Came here looking for this comment. Found it!
This moment has actually become a meme sent around the Academy. RIP that one Swab
I should've joined the Coasties. Sperry topsiders! Army just gives ya boots.
The Marine Corps makes you buy your shit!
@@SergioHernandez-vr8bx ive seen Sgts whove been like 6 years still wear the boots from bootcamp💀💀💀
5:00 I bet school was tough as hell with a last name like that. 🤦🏻
i used to live right next to the academy about 10 years ago it was always so fun to run around on the green an run into my dad when he was working ahhh such nostalgia watching this
just finished army bct in Fort Leonard Wood (C co 2-48)
and can safely say covid has diminished basic in so many ways; no hand-to-hand combat, no shark attack, constant field feed, etc.
didn’t they remove the shark attack and made army basic 22 weeks?
@@leviathan0556that’s only for osut
Bro I’ve been waiting for one about the CGA for such a long time.
Admiral Kelly was the CO of Cape May as an O-6 when I went to boot camp in 2012. Now superintendent of the CGA. And he still looks the same. That's impressive.
He more than likely has a healthy lifestyle. It's amazing how eating right, exercising, and abstaining or minimizing bad habits can do. I did 20 years in the Navy, and many people are shocked that in my early 40s... they usually say I look too young to be retired from active duty. There are people my age who did the same time as me, and they look old AF because they ate crap, smoked half a pack a day, drank alcohol in excess, and didn't exercise save for semi-annual PT tests.
I swear I just had this doubt myself few hours ago. After watching some of their previous videos, but now I'm surprised how Insider's reading my mind. 😯
8:03 had me dead
8:02 that man was lost in the sauce during that pivot
i did my enlisted time, i think coast guards a great gig for people that need a career and aren't from rich families or just want to serve a few years. The benefits are great and you'll almost certainly travel somewhere you've never been. But it does have trade offs like not having full control where you live or for how long.
after the Corps the puddle pirate's mission is EASILY at or beyond the level of VITAL importance, difficulty, and danger as ANY other military or paramilitary organization !!! They also have the most challenging
(after the Corps) new recruit boot camp. One place the Coast Gaurd exceeds ALL...even my beloved Corps is the clarity of mission and visible straight line from their actions to the safety and welfare regarding the citizenry of the United States of America. Aside from the whole Asylum Seekers issue they can justifiably call themselves the good guys. After I came home I went to work for the D.O.J. and was extremely surprised by how frequently our missions overlapped and ran parallel. I believe that if people had a clear idea of just what the Coast Guard does on a daily basis. - The HUGE responsibility they shoulder + the breadth & scope of their slice of the freedom pie they would EASILY garner AT LEAST the same level of respect, gratitude, and awe that the Tier 1 groups do...at the very LEAST. Thank you for your bravery, dedication, integrity and professionalism. I salute you all. The Coast Gaurd is a shining example of what each branch strives to be.

😎"enhanced" interrogation or not you'll put me in the ground💀before I admit to ever saying ANY of this !
😫✊fight me 😂
I hope that you and yours are safe, healthy, and happy. HOLD FAST.

5:00 I bet school was tough as hell with a last name like that. 🤦🏻
SICKENDICK HAHAHAHAHAHSHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
LMFAO
OH MY GOODNESS BWAHAHAHAHA GOOD FOR HER
I just went to the Academy Introduction Mission and Mr. Red was one of my Cadre, I am surprised I saw him in this video when he was going through Swab Summer. It’s such an interesting thing to think about.
My past cutter I was stationed at I met three. This cutter I’m at currently the cadet left recently to start his senior year at the academy. It’s a different perspective on how the cadets are being trained. I wish I could’ve known about the academy sooner
The coast guard academy looks quite chilled out to be honest.
"Before becoming a swab, they need to BE swabbed."
-Alexander Hamilton
looks like a fun summer camp
The hell,that was the gentlest haircut...they even tool that brush and cleaned em off. When i did that shit the barbers were like italian 90 something year olds who just carved away at you head and then just left you out on the streets bleeding and itchy from all the tiny hairs they didnt wipe off lol
LOL true. But keep in mind, this is not Coast Guard boot camp. This is the Academy, it's basically college with raised intensity. Search youtube for Coast Guard boot camp to see what the recruits go through.
Me going to military
Covid-19: hello there
You there!!
What branch
My friend is a part of that class! Absolutely scouring the video for her lol
Can you do a us air force boot camp video
The fact when the sgt yells they smell their own breath 😂😂😂
Is that an M1 Garand I see in their hands. What a great way to remember the soldiers of the past
In this episode of: where has quarantine got me into
Edit: holy guacamoly this is the most likes i got thanks
Bahahaha I love this comment
Noice
Bad economy
But this is a normal video though
Episode 2: Electric Coastguard-aroo
Can’t wait for a US Air Force Academy Bootcamp and enlisted bootcamp! 🇺🇸
You can find BMT and Academy footage on CZcams already.
David Stryker yeah but I like the way they do it
Respect 🙏🏼
a college with no girls where you get your head shaved weekly and yelled at every time you go to eat? and then have to live on a boat for 5 years after graduation? sounds lovely
1:35, we can see a proud father get emotional with his son joining Coast Guard.
Can you do a video on the Public Health Corps? Would really love to see how medical professionals make their way into the military.
Great video today keep it up your doing amazing job
Yeah I think I’m gonna join the Marines!🇺🇸Merica!
I dig the Full Metal Jacket tribute intro
This looks so easy planning on joining after high school 2021 let’s gooo
Just get ready to have your brain turned to mush from all the knowledge
The Coast Guard ethos : "I'm a Coast Guardsman!"
*you don't say*
It used to start with "I am a guardian" until just after the Ashton Kutcher movie... Then they changed it
First dude hasn’t started and is already having Nam flashbacks
I remember watching when they go outside I'll watch in my tree and its deadly
Business insider gets so exiting featuring uniformed trainees
There’s no other greater joy than having financial freedom and a life free of debts, all thanks to Mr Robert, cause he made me who I am today through binary trade. He has helped me a lot with his trading strategies which helps me to earn $12,550 weekly. I really appreciate it and can't help but let others know about it because it is so suitable anyone can trade from anywhere and anytime, you can reach Mr Nicholas on Instagram @nicholasjmyronfx or what sap :+1(518) 633-5966.
his indeed a God sent. now i don't need to be working 9-5 ....
Now I want these guys to do Kingspoint or any of the Maritime Academies
I can relate to the book thing because here at military school we through a recruit cycle and we have to do that too
Bro they go so easy on them. I’m glad I joined the navy
Yea this swab summer thing is a joke compared to bootcamp
We gotta get a video on the Air Force it’s the only one I haven’t seen on here
Shoot was scheduled at Lackland in April but was postponed because of COVID-19. Hope to get there soon.
Thoes uniforms actually look so cool
Tipton at 2:21 used to go to Marion Military Insitute. She was part of Alpha Company.
0:47 I don't know if it's timing or if the video is reversed, but the commander is calling left when everyone (including him) is stepping on their right foot...
This is why the Coast Guard is the best branch
Enlisted boot camp looks more intense from the looks of this video 😭
It certainly is . Boot Camp in Cape May New Jersey in the middle of winter was a complete frozen white out on a spit of land jutting out into the Atlantic. Miserable, but I figured that go hardcore and just get used to bad weather!
0:45 callin' on the wrong step lol
Had a friend who was a Swab this summer, go bears!
I had to double take when I realised I was literally drinking from possibly the same model and brand of drink bottle as the guy in the thumbnail, mines green though.
Do Air Force or navy boot camp
what is the material of the uniform, I want to make clothes with that material because it supports me in working
These freshman seen in the video are going to be the juniors yelling at me come July, I’m excited and anxious
How did it go? Are you a sophomore now?
Wait so do people who will join the Coast guard, do they have to go through this before inlisting for the actual boot camp or is this just optional?
This is for cadets who will become officers through the 4-year academy program. "Boot camp" is for recruits that will be enlisted, and is not held at the academy. If you enlist, you would not be part of Swab Summer at CGA.
Could you do this for the other branches?
They have done West Point and the Naval Academy if you want to look at those videos
@@FirstnameLastnamee they've done all of the service academies except visiting Colorado Springs
May I know where you guyz got that book “Running Light” ???
It is issued to swabs at the academy when reporting in. I don't think you can get it anywhere else
Getting swap tested just hurttssss so much
im glad im enlisted, jeez
When the drill sgt asks you to yell with your mask.
Me: *dammit*
do USAFA next year
What happend to the shitups? Has it been changed to planks now?
@8:00 2 cadets did a right turn lmao.
Want business insider to make such a video on IAS, IFS training at lbsnaa. The life of officers after cracking the world's toughest and competitive exam.
The guy looks so done with coast guard academy at 0:00
And these men and women only get 1k a month, these guys should get more than that
Free room and board for 4 years plus a guaranteed job as an officer post grad. They really are lucky to get a stipend at all.
@@baby16princezz2011 you forgot the college degree!
Still not enough to live on especially if they have a spouse & kid soooo
@@parkerrollins6374 the assumption is you don't. This is the equivalent of 4 year university that you go away to. Most kids in that situation do not have a spouse and kids.
Parker Rollins exactly
I forgot the coast guard is part of the military
Actually DHS, but yes
@@allysonroesch1831 hey there shipmate!
@@TropicalChris lol at first I was like who is this- and then I saw the IPAP videos on your channel and immediately knew!
It’s DOT
It’s not. It’s Dept of Homeland Security
I'd like to see this redone when Covid isn't such a big problem
I’m thinking about joining in 2022 after my army contract ends
How many push ups do you have to do
I went to AIMS last summer, shout-out alpha platoon and Mr.Gadsden.
Apparently the CGA is they're path to commissioning as officers.
Does anyone know if there is any firearms training at the coast guard academy
yes there is but only 1 week during the 2/c summer, which is "junior year" summer, for 2/c cadets. It is called "range week". But that's it, unless you join one of the clubs related to firearms which is optional.
Do air force
Can you do an air force basic training?
nice video
Please do Air Force bmt
Thank you ''Business Insider'' your channel inspired us to start our CZcams Channel🙏
TheLuxurious stop with the advertising
@@deanyang1350 yeah
I would buzz my hair off on my own before joining. I don’t want to give them the satisfaction of seeing me lose my $h-t.😜
You're not allowed too in most branches
Davin Hernandez
That doesn’t make any sense. Why would they forbid that?
@@hindsightpov4218 I was joining the national guard before I put it on a temporary freeze considering everything going on. I was told not to cut your hair X amount of days before reception date.
Davin Hernandez
Why would they order you not to cut your hair before a particular date only to cut it themselves?
It’s apart of the experience and they will smoke you if you do shave your head before. Also you pay for your haircuts so they need that money back apparently.
their whole bootcamp is literally what i went thru during quarantine at the citedal waiting for Marine bootcamp
Do Air Force vid
Imagine if a marine drill SGT saw this he would be in the first flight to the academy 😂
I should have gone OCS 😭that shit look sweet ash bro spoke in lower case and they make a lot more money then enlisted
I can’t wait to be there 😁
What's that song name at 8:36 ?
Still no Air Force Academy 😥
Mao's little red book but American
This is the version of mean girls
8:03 that one guy who lagged behind
Quick question! Once you do the academy do you have to do the 8 week boot camp as well?
No. Once you finish the academy, you become a Coast Guard officer. The 8 week Bootcamp is only for those who will be entering the Coast Guard as enlisted.
@@theodoreguba5483 Thanks!
Do USMMA!!!!
This is funny to watch 🤣🤣🤣 chow hall looks so chill 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Marines next
