I was lifeboat class 674. I’m a merchant marine vet/army vet. Salute to all my sailors/soldiers
Class 677 dec 05 ❤ best decision I made set me up with a solid foundation
Great introduction to what’s in store for us in the future of this channel!
Joe, cool video you put together thank you for sharing it here.
ahhh familiar faces ((: I just came out and about to go on my first ship!! as 826-s! best experience of my life and many more to come! thanks you for this video
Ven Limit How much are you getting paid if you don't mind me asking
Venom Kamikaze
$5,000 a month and I’ll be going to upgrade here soon and make more!!
@James Schoonmaker Although it might seem like shit, that's only when you are a cadet afaik... and cadets only work for like 1-2 years until promotion I'd say. Besides it's not that bad, since you already basically live on the ship with free food and housing, so by the time you get back to shore you'll have a lot to work with.
Thankyou very much for the movie. God bless everyone...
Joe Franta, I've read and deciphered all your messages hidden in these videos and I will follow your will!
oh yes 461"Desert Storm" 147 days 594 total
Where would I find info about this program? Very Interested. Great Video
Was there last week
Man times have changed. When I was that age maybe 1 out of 100 guys were fat. A VERY % of that class there is overweight. WTF is going on with young people in the USA these days?
How were you able to film everything? They don’t let us have any phones or cameras out and about now
Had to get permission. They actually used this video for recruiting for a little while
Ahhhh 837 here !
816 baby
I'm also interested in joining, one of my friends went there but hasn't really explained what a typical day schedule is like. Was told first months of training is 7 days a week and from 4am-8pm
Urijah Van Buren it's a wonderful experience I just got out and waiting for my first ship now. go for it man I promise you'll love it!!

@Ven Limit is the job outlook plentiful? I hear there is way more people than ships.
Ven Limit How do I get started?
Ven Limit could you spare some tips?
Class 677 Dec 05
Hey! I am thinking about joining! any pros and cons?
Boss Lady PRO the training is free, great way to start a new career
CON the first 2 phases take about 8 months with no return home
Joe Franta is there any u can tell me what all I need to join
Terrell Kirkland go to your local “SIU Hall “ just google SIU Hall it should pop up,go there then you can link up to a recruiter, it has two phases one phase last a month and the other one 90 days ,in the first phase you’ll need to do an application at the hall,present two letters of recommendation,do a simple maths and English test,no court cases,then wait for a confirmation to proceed to the second phase in which you’ll need to get a “TWIC Card”,do a cost guard drug test and physical apply for an “MMC Card “ present a dentist letter that says you got no mouth work and that’s it at this stage you’ll be scheduled a for a class.Good luck Future mariners!!!!
How's the math test its tough??
So is it a mandatory haircut
They used to do that, not sure if its still the case
How long the training is?
So all 5 phases of the program were a year and a half
Gator says hi
What's the acceptance rate?
@@Emily_Quinn already graduated, but thank you
Z P My Pleasure! Have a great day! #StaySafe
excellent video, I got ?? about how many exams you have to take. also why this class was so little.
freebird 4life Thank you! the first phase has about 5 exams. every class has about 10-15 people. new classes arrive every month
Joe Franta, are those exams on the following competencies? (FirefightingFirsaidETC) please shoot me an email if you can
Why do they make it like boot camp and than when you get on a ship its laid back and not that serious
Localsh!thead old coast guard rules from what I heard
When the school opened in the 70’s a lot of the young men where “troubled youth”, who needed a fresh perspective.
The point of the school is A. teach you stuff you need to know, B. Make you capable of taking more BS than you thought you could stand. Shipboard life is not like life on shore and many people get weird after a few days at sea. Great money though. Save it and you can have a great life, mortgage free home. I did it in less than 6 years, worked my butt off.
@@bslturtle 3 years later I’m an apprentice in the ibew lol
@@bslturtle good for you old man
So you can have your phone on campus
Trevon Anthony they use to shave everyone. Not its just military

couLd iSimpLy teLLya itHinK you're reaLLy cooL... &is thatYou marchin' inFront? xOxOx
Hey man, are we forced to have shaved heads? I don't wanna get my head shaved.
They use to back in my day, but i think they may have changed it
@@JoeFrantathey did when I joined back in 05 class 674. Probably not anymore. Whatever happened to Tally. And if you know you know
