- John Ingle visits the 363rd TRS where he finds out about the rivalry between the Ammo and Armament career fields. One builds bombs and one loads them, but they both share a piece of equipment known as the Jammer to accomplish their mission. Watch this episode to find out who drives it better.
There’s a lot more to being an Ammo Troop, building and delivery are just a small part of what they do. IYAAYAS
Always waiting on ammo. Also, a good 3 man can scoop that bomb right off the trailer and can set it in the hooks of ejector rack without assistance.
Uhaul!! Ha! Pretty sure he meant UALS. Freaking AMMO 😂
As a former Weapons Loading 2 man and Crew Chief I've seen many a 4 man that could drive rings around any Ammo troop! 😀
Heyo Sgt Williams, Represent!
Never understood the competition, but hey without load toads its just air no force, no ammo no boom
As a 2 man I could out drive most of the BB stickers and the few I couldn't my 3 man Troy could beat easily.
Ammo are glorified truck drivers. Weapons are Aircraft mechanics that also load munitions. AMMO training is like 6 weeks. Weapons depending on the airframe is 6 months. There is no real comparison. That’s why weapons work with crew chiefs, avionics, hydraulic, engine troops. Ammo drops munitions trailers off and leave. And yet weapons still tow their own trailers in the bomber air frames world. It’s honestly embarrassing this “rivalry”.
IYAAYWOT. 🤣
