"Stay on the route and recognize the objective"...sound life advice too.
Truth!
this guy is married....... dont go there.
Wise words!
Amen
I literally did 0400 land nav til 0800 the next morning after watching this video, found 3/5 points w/out getting lost. Satisfactory.
Chris Nguyen *nkp
wait, in basic cant you get your phone later on?
It is so much easy to use the 04.00 & 08.00.
That is what we normally tell time in my country.
@@epicestpoopmunchergangepm7962 not for that
I'm doing pace counts in dreams. Made a sweet paracord counter.🎉only problem; wife's comes along, talks to much😮,lose count alot, made a 10 pace counter so I can just go back half😂😂😂start over, not perfect but better that listening to it😂🍻
I teach land nav in my unit and you did an excellent job!!! Didn't over complicate which the Army has a tendency to do. Again, great job 🇺🇸👍
Thanks Paul!
That bezel ring tip boggled my mind. Wish I would have been taught that during BCT.
casey hermansen glad to was able to show you something new.
Been out of the Army over 5 years now, and was frustrated that I couldn't remember how to do land nav by memory. Excellent video, SSG. It all came back to me!
Glad it came back to ya!
First step to know where you are.
2LT: Shit.
So I have one up on a 2LT yay
@@kingfloridaman5274me to and I'm just a army dad😂, taught by my Son. A teacher of cool shit.
@@kingfloridaman5274On an ROTC 2LT yeah but not an OCS prior service 2LT.
An excellent high level overview of an oddly difficult task to explain and he did it in less than 10 mikes, that's pretty outstanding as far as I'm concerned.
Thanks James!
It finally makes sense. DS made it overly complicated.
F. NYENNOHTE TORBOR Indeed.
That or you're just an idiot
You were probably too busy thinking about chow.
I basic you probably just plotted some six and eight digit grid coordinates, did some terrain feature recognition and called it a day.. It all makes a lot more sense when you actually get on a land nav course and are able to put it into practice.
@@Richard-lu8ck thats exactly what happened
Been out of the army since 2013 and this brought it all back. Direct and effective language. This should be the way land nav is taught.
Appreciate your service brother!
Definitely an excellent video to watch, even if you aren't military.
He is military though
@@theadventurest4345 no I’m saying that in regards to the audience. I could’ve worded that better. MGRS is fundamentally similar to USNGS format and therefor this is valuable to civilians as well.
@@dylanrutan100 lol 😂 I read it wrong sorry mate
@@dylanrutan100 civilian here, yes we should know basic life skills too 🤣 its amazing how helpless most people are. I'm grateful for videos like this.
I have been out of the Army for thirty years and it is absolutely unchanged, brilliant!! The memories came flooding back. Time to dig out my Cammenga lensatic and go practice! Great instruction, thank you.
Right on!
Very helpful video. I ship out to basic in a few weeks and I'm trying to review the basics to be as prepared as possible. Thank you for the clear demonstration.
I couldn't find the ground if I was standing on it, but your instruction left me with a lot more confidence I might actually be able to find my way with a compass! Thumbs up!
What's up fellow Staff Sergeant. You did an excellent job with this video. I commend you for taking the time to complete this. NCOs lead the way!
how to read geographic maps
Thanks! I’ve been offline for a while. But I do appreciate it! More to come.
Tony Ferguson is working on some more!
This is the best and more clear land nav video i've seen. thank you!
Took a land nav course as a civilian and forgot a couple of things from it. This covered everything clearly and helped refresh my memory.
Thanks sooooo much SSG! I'm in BLC right now and Land NAV is coming up and this video was just ABC enough for me! Great video quality! Great simple language! Thanks so much for creating this and really helping out Soldiers!!
+EbonyYoungin I'm glad it helped you out!
EbonyYoungin I'm in BLC right now too and this helped soooo much. This video explains it way better than the SGL's did.
1 round, HE, impact fuse, fire for effect!
Great video! Folks need to be learning these simple principles and developing these skills. They are going to need them...soon.
I've got a LN course this weekend. Thank you so much for this video Sergeant.
Best Land Nav video on CZcams. Thanks from a civilian!
Maaaannnnn, it’s been YEARS since I did a land nav course. It’s so good to get a remediation like this now that I’m going to hike the Appalachian Trail. Buying my topo maps now.
Thank you for this. Used to be pretty good with this, but haven't done it in probably 13 years. Excellent refresher.
Great presentation and breakdown. Made it much simpler to grasp. Thank you
Thank you so much. Even though I am in the Army, I forget things that I do not recurrently do. This video reminds me all the things about Land Nav.
Awesome!
This is a great survival skill. Honestly wish they taught this is school. Anyone could use this, especially if they like to travel.
Excellent presentation. Clear, plain & simple with good visuals. Thank you sir!!
This is the best video on land nav without a doubt just straight to the point
Thanks brother!
I appreciate the simple language and the time you took to help others out. Great video and thanks for the refresher.
Captain sobel disliked this video
Why is there a fence here?
“I think it’s Major Horton, Sir”
Sometimes you just gotta cut through the fence boiis
Captain sobel what is the hold up
@@jamesholcombe435 You cut that fence and get this...GOD-DAMNED Platoon on the move!
very well put together. watched it one time and it all flooded back thank you.
Of all the "Land Nav" videos I watched, this is the most direct and clear instructions ever. Havent done any since I left Sill 20yrs ago, nice refresher for me as my 10yr old is interested in this.
Jay, glad you enjoyed it! I’m still working on some more. Thank you for the compliment and time spent on the channel!
@@STOKERMATIC Thanks for taking the time to put this stuff up in a manner that ol' Black Boot Soldiers like me can understand.
Great job, Sergeant! I'm an old infantryman needing to brush up on my land nav, and you did it by the numbers. Thanks!
Right on!
Spot-on demo on Land Nav! To the point and concise. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Sir! Best video on Land Navigation! Greetings from Italy!
Roberto
You're going to make me pass land navigation in BLC. This was sooooo helpful.
Fantastic job man made it real easy for training using examples and being out in a field like you were.
This is the best land nav video. Thank you.
That bezel ring tip just blew my mind, currently going through ITB for the marine corps and needed a refresher, this will certainly help.
You got this!
Best video on Land Nav.
This video was better than my actual LandNav experience in my patrol phase of RS. Because of that I HIGHLY recommend any and all LandNav courses or videos BEFORE anyone goes to an elite QC or leadership school in any branch of the military.
In short, great video Sergeant and this way, when you're finished talking you dont raise your head to look at the Sea of Confused PFC faces looking back at you. Good on you brother, RLTW!
Much appreciated!!
shortest and simplest video out there. love it.
Good stuff, you explain everything well and the video has a laid back vibe, thank you.
It feels so good to come up to a point 🔥

Question. Is there a place i can go to to buy maps like this for area of your choice. For example. A big camping area. Land nav course. Or even like an airsoft/paintball event.
That was a great refresher. I haven't had to land nave since 1991, but everything came back to me after watching it. Thank you.
I'm just asking to learn but I got lost after u found your asmuth and when u started talking about the difference between magnetic and map north not the concept just the math and equation behind it any chance u could explain that to me and ty for showing us how to read maps
Thank you so much 🙏🏾 going out for a land nav training today.
Definitely breaks it down for me, thank you for the post!
Good quick, efficient video on land navigation. Thanks.
I understood this short video way easier than when I had my DS teach me. Thank you so much SSG
Thank you for the helpful video sergeant!
When you was talking about the numbers I didn't understand how you figured them out. Thanks brother for reply. I want to lurned more about this subject.
Tony, I’m going to actually suggest the couple of vids I have in my fieldcraft video that discuss how to use a protractor and read a map. I hope you are able to check them out and they address your questions. If not, let me know.
Good video, I’ve came back to this over the years when I need a refresh or have to train my troops . 👌🏽
Glad it’s helped you and your troopers out!
Mahalo, Mr. Stoker! Land Nav is an important discipline in SAR work here for us on Kauai, as a voluntee SAR K-9 unit. Dispatched by Police, Fire or the DLNR we need to know where we are or where our objective is in locating a missing person. Thank you Sir for what you do and, for this refreshing video. Kauai SAR K-9 unit.
I’ve forgotten so much over the years.....good refresher
🇺🇸
Great refresher on everything I had forgotten thank you
Thank you SSG, I'll be giving a class on Land Nav soon and the simple method you used should make it easy enough for the unit to retain.
How’s your military career going since it’s been 4 years ??
This is really neat. Very clear and simple to understand. Great Video!
Thanks alot for the video Bill! Im helping out my lil brother who is about to go to basic at Fort.Benning. -11Bravo
next land nav video I'd like to see is how to set up an attack point with clear instruction just like this video. awesome video man two thumbs up.
Simply put to the point and easy to follow. Cheers
Right on Ian!
Excellent tutorial Stokermatic.🇺🇸✌️👍
Short and simple, thank you SSG
All this time I never knew you could lock in your azimuth using the Bevel ring. Mind= blown
Glad it showed something new for you.
That is something I also took from this video. Its a whole new world.
A great help!!! Thank you, sir!!!
You made this stuff look easy.
Thank You for the lesson my good sir.
Thanks for this video. Make bushcraft and skills great again
Great video! The bezel was a perishable trick. Thanks for the retrain.
Great video definitely refreshed my memory.
I did not know about that bezel ring trick, very helpful
Thank you for the lesson!
Thanks ssg got a spur ride coming up and this helped a lot
Right on! All the best brother!
Helped me a lot, thanks!
Right on!
Thank you sir. This was helpful!!
Ahh good O'l East Range. First place I learned how to land nav. Awesome course in my opinion didnt even have to pull out my compass for most of it, usually just terrain associate.
this is an easy to understand video. thanks
+malpica345 glad you enjoyed it! Will try to do some more. I'm in some different country now, so it'll be good to show the fundamentals don't change.
very helpful thanks bro. Im a green to gold cadet and its been a min since land nav. Thanks for the refresher.
Awesome, and congrats!
I need to brush up on my land skills since basic training THANKS
Right on!
Ssg stoker! I'm watching this vid as a refresher about to do a land nav course as OPFOR with some cadets. So cool to see you on CZcams.
Harris! My goodness, how are you doing?!? Hope all is well brother!
@@STOKERMATIC It's good! I'm in school while in the reserves now. You were always an NCO I looked to for inspiration when I picked up. Hope all is well with you too!
Really excellent presentation
This is pretty straightforward and sounds simple.
A lil practice and confidence!
awesome!,very interesting and understanding love it
Thank u so much SSG. I had a LandNav practice today and I got 3 of 5 points. After watching this video I'm pretty sure I'll get all of them in my assessment in two days.
Abdullah Saad how was it? Can you tell me other tests (other then like pft) that you gotta do? I'm trying to join the Marines as infantry.. This seems kinda confusing.. Will it be easier to understand in boot camp?
Glad it helped!
Great useful vid,,,thanks for posting,,,😎
This took me a while to understand I had to watch the video 3 more times but I understand now 😀
THANK YOU 🇺🇸
Awesome! Glad it helped! Check out my map and compass playlist for additional content. And don’t hesitate to let me know if you have any questions!
I don’t are we allowed to follow people in basic?
Good, solid video. Thank you sir.
Thanks Jeff!
I felt really dumb, but after watching this post - its simple now. Thank you.
Thanks David! I’m glad it helped out.

Thanks SSG! I'm headed to WOCS next week and this is a great refresher.
