    That Navy Ex Officer is crazy elite. Went to 'Nuclear School'---insane crazy genius, and he served on a 'submarine.' I'm an Army vet, and I have to say, I think that probably the craziest job or duty one could do in the military is submarine duty. My claustrophobic instincts would not permit me to even handle an hour probably.

    • @AnthonySforza
      @AnthonySforza Před 4 lety +4

      In the Navy, I knew guys who were on a sub and they said that honestly, it's like being down in a ship. Save for the specific things, like hot racking and such. Though the claustrophobia isn't worse than being an OS or something on a ship. However, they all did say that the whole "Months without seeing the sun" thing was one of the hardest parts.

    • @IAMME000
      @IAMME000 Před 4 lety +4

      Hey, funny enough, I went the opposite route as the Navy officer. I was an enlisted nuke, then got out and went to college for EE. Nuke school is hard, but I don't think it'd be that hard if you already had an EE degree. Nuclear power school is basically half of an engineering degree crammed into 6 months, so the volume of it is absolutely crazy if you don't have an engineering background, but the material itself isn't that hard.
      That said, dive school is a different animal that I know nothing about. I'd wager it isn't nearly as hard academically as nuke school, but WAY more physically demanding. Not all sub officers have to do it though (though all sub officers DO have to do nuke school).

    • @daconqueror101
      @daconqueror101 Před 7 lety +3

      It's challenging mentally and physically (but only because you never get enough sleep). You have to be extremely competent and knowledgeable. However, you eat like shit, you don't get good sleep (averaged about 4 hours a night when out to sea with a 16 hour work day everyday for 2-3 months and oxygen levels at an all time low), and if you look at old submariners they are usually fat because if you stay in long enough you learn that working out and physical fitness is just a dream. I remember standing in a meeting, chugging a cup of coffee, nodding off during the meeting and then going right to sleep in my rack about 15 minutes later.

    • @daconqueror101
      @daconqueror101 Před 7 lety

      Suicide happens but it's not super common. What's more common is people failing out or "sading out" otherwise known as "going sad." We had a few guys sad out while others resorted to drugs to pop in a piss test and get kicked out.

    • @daconqueror101
      @daconqueror101 Před 7 lety +1

      I don't know the statistics. It's easy to get accepted as a nuke if you are somewhat competent. All you have to do is think about it and the wizards of nuclear power convince you to join. Now once you go through training yes it's very difficult. But it's not the material that's difficult, it's the drastic amount of shit you have to learn and retain very quickly. You need to know the exact definition of everything in an instant. BUD/S is difficult for a different reason. That's more physical and exhausting. For example, a scrawny nerd can become a nuke. A scrawny nerd cannot become a SEAL.

    • @IAMME000
      @IAMME000 Před 4 lety

      I don't think it's fair to compare nuke to SF (or Rangers, SEAL/SWCC, PJ, etc.). The nuke pipeline is extremely academically challenging, but it's literally ALL academic. Very few SF guys could make it thorough nuke school, but almost no nukes could make it through the Q course.

I miss not being able to join but clearly it wasn't meant to be! All of my friends from college are now Majors and living in all corners of the world. Good times!

    Turned down a surprise offer (while in Army BCT) to West Point Prep School. This was way back in the mid 70s. They had virtually no information on majors and 3 others and myself pretty much watched a quick West Point marching band film after they pulled us out of the company formation. Life-changing decision with no time and no information. Yes or no. All 4 of us had really good AIT school assignments and turned down the offer. Hopefully, the Army now gives potential candidates more than 15 minutes to decide the future of their lives....
