10 ways to "get in trouble" in the U.S. Navy 

The biggest trouble I've been in is when my chief told me to act the rank I want to be and I replied with that's why I act like a civilian chief

*drops washer and rolls into ocean* ... *entire ship shuts down indefinitely*

*Drops screwdriver*........... *gets kicked off ship*

hi fam thank u for support fam on all videos appreciate you all everyday ok bye

In 2005, my ship pulled into Curacao, and Maj. Love (marine officer) raided the Whore House with Shore patrol in plain clothes. Almost Everybody from E1-E9 got caught... I ran😅!

One of the biggest regrets/mistakes of my life.... I was an AM like you (AMS to be technical) this was 97. I had been in for 2 1/2 years. Went through A school, passed at the top of my class, got through C school, then made it to my duty station. I was I level. Went out one night, smoked some weed. Thought I'd be cool. Whadda ya know, piss test 2 days later. Popped the drug test. That's how my luck works. Random drug test, just happened to happen the ONE time I smoked weed. They got me. I got court martial ed because my CO wasn't fucking around and wanted to "make an example" 75 days in the NAS Jax brig, other than honorable discharge. One of the biggest regrets of my life. I loved the Navy. Here's the point kids: you're not gonna get away with shit. I thought smoking "just once" wouldn't hurt. It did.

That momment when a stuffed bear outranks you

do not be stupid. do not "gundeck". no drugs, no underage drinking, do drinking and driving, these are the biggest ones to keep in mind. Ok, to not get in trouble, make sure you uniform looks "ok", show up ten minutes early to where you are supposed to be.

9:24 "I believe he's still in the navy" 9:48 "I believe he's out of the navy now" Lol

My grandpa's brother was in the Navy in the 1970s and he once got in a fight with a shipmate and held him by the ankles over the side of a destroyer

KEEP AN ALARM PLUGGED INTO THE WALL!!! I'm one counseling chit away from DRB due to 2 phones plugged in with the alarm on, but simply not turned on. A SINGLE PURPOSE alarm clock is the way to go. Depending on the command, being chewed out in DRB is like being a missing tool being chewed out in a turbine.

1990: We had a captain's mast where 21 sailors went to mast for fighting with sailors from another ship after a night of heavy drinking. We had a cool captain, who didn't bust any of them. They only got 30 days extra duty and Bravo liberty risk.

can i do a wheelie off the Flight Deck ?

I'm an MA and love doing the random inspections cuz the person is either really pissed or is sarcastically excited which makes it easier to do 😂

You want to stay out of trouble in the navy? First thing to keep in mind is: Don’t call any enlisted sailor sir. I almost learned the hard way. Very informative presentation.

My mates in the Navy in Perth WA.. He got in trouble for getting coffee from a restricted area. Apparently able body seaman aint allowed in that area.. But yeah he wasn't allowed weekend leave... Haha the things we do for coffee ..

JT I'm going to Basic Training on September 6th and my job designation is HM. Your vids are insightful and have helped me gain more knowledge about Navy life and what to expect. Keep up the good work.

I missed a ton of videos while i was in Marine bootcamp, graduated last Friday. I can safely say that sandboxx helped me out a lot since I could get letters and send letters quicker. The hurricane happened in Houston while I was there, so sandboxx helped me keep in touch with my family.

you answered a lot of questions I had on this video. thanks jt! you the man

I ship out today and I just want to thank you because you've helped me out so much while in dep. Thank you man, forever grateful.

Gun Decking sounds like Fire Watch in Army.

MR3 here. Hang around a Submarine Base. It gets hairy when you deal with nukes. I made E5 but got a reduction in rate due to a fight at the EM club with a bunch of Jarheads.

I got that same shirt!! Love it, one of my fav shirts to wear not even lying!!

love his stories

Really cool listening to your perspective....

Congratulations on becoming a father. Best wishes JT. 😀

Wow. Sexually Assault a fellow sailor? We'll transfer you. A pipe that could be used for weed is found in your vehicle even though you're not using? YOURE OUT OF THE NAVY!!!! HOW DARE YOU?!?

Yo I love your videos so much thanks for making them

When u sneezed and made a noise, I do the same when I sneeze. It's a good feeling, sneezing.

Go navy!

Bless you fam

Missing ship's movement is another huge no-no. We pulled into St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands on Abe Lincoln. One of our guys missed the last liberty boat back to the ship. Amazingly he talked the local Coast Guard guys into running him out to the carrier in their RHIB which I thought was pretty brilliant. Our XO was waiting for him personally when he arrived at the ship. 6 months half pay, reduction, restriction, etc. They really don't like it when you miss ship's movement.

That first story is underrated. It’s important to know that your superiors will get your back especially in a situation that was handled right. (Multiple warnings before going to someone)

BIG fan of your channel!! All your videos prepare me for what's to come in the Navy. I leave in a month. Questions, the jobs that you can volunteer for in the ship, do you recommend and could you potentially get higher rank? Also any tips for me in boot camp?

Love that you did so good of a job that you’re first major mistake was so uncommon for you that they framed your fuck up.

JT I've got a video idea. Can you share advise and tips on being the new guy, meeting people, dealing with hazing, being homesick ect?

Fratenization! I was a yeoman and still got a page 13 for it, my first 6 months in, with a girl in my division. My family and i just laughed it off after I told them

Your awesome man

PAPA! Love the vids🤙🏼

Great video's, thanks bro

A kid In A school got kicked out of the navy because he was always late. He was in my duty section. He would always make the muster last 30 minutes because he wouldn’t show up. Sometimes they would release us because before he showed up because he was so late. The navy is a one for all, all for one. You have to show up really late for a Chief to say just get out of here.

Support your channel with watching all the ad’s liking and notifications

I went to Framp in San Diego, before going to Yokosuka Japan to join my squadron on the USS Midway, HS-12. I was an AMS.

Yo your vids are awesome bro keep up the good work

Yo JT, didja hear about what happened on the Hue City? So glad that POS STGC is outta the Navy, giving us Ping Things a bad name!

Very informative I loved it where was poppa he so cute love your puppy

i am gaming for JT loots

Let's see that framed barrier paper JT 😂

im glad they stop all movement when bolts or tolls end up missing. I saw damage due to a 5/8 bolt on a flightdeck. no dam fun!!!!!!!

I did a lot of pushups in boot saying what you said... If you're early you're on time If you're on time you're late If you're late you're forgotten. To this day (35 years old and 13 years since I wore the uniform) I still get anxious if Im not 15 minutes early somewhere. As for the smelly person in our division. Obviously against the rules but one "Steel Wool Shower" later and he didn't have that problem anymore.

Trouble can find you in the military easily... any foolish mistakes lol been there & done that lol... Keep up with your original intro "Wat up Fam" "Bran NUuuu Video"... 👍🏼

Thanks for the video! I'm currently considering joining the Navy (literally because of your videos) but my family is quick to shut me down. Any tips for the fams while we are out at sea?

Excellent video, but you only scratched the surface! My scariest underway 1MC announcement was "all hands not on watch lay to the mess decks to witness punishment". The skipper masted our Command Master Chief in front of everyone! Very ugly...guilty on all counts! It was like the Caine Mutiny after that.

I've got a good friend that is in the Coast Guard Reserves (used to be active duty) and I can remember him talking about gundecking paperwork lol. He also has to weigh in twice a year and told me about a pay seven if you got in trouble, whatever that is lol. Apparently its a reduction in pay.

should be titled “100+ ways to get in trouble in the navy”

Met more than one dirt bag in the USN! I had to have an E-3 counseled, as he went to bed naked and racked above me! Funny hearing it, but not to experiencing it! Thank God, I outranked the little chit! (EX) IC2:)

My friend got a DWI while home on leave and was held for 30 days before release. He was two weeks past his report back for duty date. He got in lots of trouble 😂

Wow thanks for serving our country

I have a very unique story. I was in the Navy 2 1/2 years (1990 1992) got sent to Captains mass twice in 3 months for stupid shit. reduced from E5 to E3 over the same period. During that time I was a mess and used LSD several times. during one of my restriction weeks, I decided I had enough and approached the Command DAPA with my issues and drug use. After that meeting and subsequent written confession, I was subjected to multiple drug tests, Lie detection via NIS ( I declined), coercion to make statements to the MA's and the Corpsmen, to which I respectfully remained silent. Four months went by since my confession to the command DAPA, and I finally was given my DD-214 that said "Type of discharge - Honorable. Narrative reason for discharge - Drug Abuse"

And when all else fails....If ya can't find a charge...go with Article 134 of the UCMJ!

ever gonna do a meet and greet? totally would show up

this channel is litty

I knew a QA/SO who was on the flight line and they had just done a FCF on a helo and they were prepping to launch, all of a sudden a AD1 comes running out the line shack waving his hands, so they shut down. Come to find out someone from the phase shop left a torque wrench inside the dog house. But the QA/SO got the biggest blame because he was supposed to check all of it. He had 21 years in, got busted down to second and lost his security clearance. He ended up retiring a second.

ily jt

Missing tools!!! OMG! I had that happen to me once. Luckily, I was not in charge of my shop just yet, my booze-loving PR1 was… That lady got reamed for it and so many other things afterwards. Sad story really…

Gun Decking will get you in trouble big time, also when you are on deployment and visiting a place and Shore Patrol takes you back to the ship for an incident, you can expect trouble when the LPO finds out.

I believe that's called dishonorable discharge under general conditions you still get benefits and then after a while It just turns into an honorable discharge.

The drunk guys were probably in Fallon 😂 A member of my current command has been busted down 2x in rank for showing up to work late 👍

JTsuits i know you are busy bro but can you explain when you have time, how that flight deck worker got sucked into the Jet engine and how he walked away unscathed ?

I did so much jacked up stuff I never went to PT once during A school complicated situation I didn’t class up on time bc my class was full. Also after my IA my command was never informed i was back I went home for two months and got wasted. Ironically nobody I knew from my command was still there. I finally called and said hey this is Roachelle I’m going to be back from my IA. My chief said “hey man go home for two weeks.”

They some asses for framing the mistake and giving it to him😂😂

Will u go reserve or guard just for extra inCome or fun?

I'm thinking about joining up and I'm about to take the ASVAB, I wanted to know if air traffic control was a good job

I am from the south an that is so true for some

The shower one cracked me up

Hey JT, they say you can bring a specific watch to bootcamp. Can you use it as an alarm to wake up earlier than the other recruits, are you allowed?

off topic but do you think MWR (modern warfare remaster'd) is better than the original cod 4

How do you keep up with what day of the week it is and what time it is because of time zones

I gunned decked ..over PMS on board ship, "oh chiefs at lunch, oh master chief is on leave wont be back tomorrow, oh AT1 is TDA " every single time.....lol....hahahahah

This video should be titled "How to get OUT of the military."

7:46 that scared me😂😂😂

Can we see the framed paper? Or if that is personal I understand

Had a guy Martinez. Very thick Mexican accent. We went to Tijuana..... Shut up don't act like you never went. ( Your not supposed to go there). So we partied tried to come back show i.d. and he had his wallet stolen. Tried like hell to convince the border popo that he was with us. No dice. They called the base at 3 in the morning. He was secure so see ya bro. I'm not getting busted. And he got 45/ 45 and reduction. Never ratted us out though good sport.

JT, "45/45 is a form of Non Judicial Punishment, it means 45 days restriction to base 45 days extra duty and they usually add in half a months pay X 2." what does that mean, "half a months pay X 2"?

Hey so your friends that got in trouble in Vegas was one a SAR named Bugbee

#askjt How did the PST go? Do you need to serve a minimum of time before trying to join?

Avaiation mechanic is what rate? Or is it a new one?

329 right here!!!

Great Stuff! Wish that the Internet existed in 1988!:(-John

Hahahahaa back in the day we referred to an ARI as "Friday"

Jt, I went to meps the other day and I disclosed everything that the recruiter told me to disclose. It was two traffic stops for a total of 7 tickets. And two misdemeanors. Everything went good but there was a 3rd traffic stop with two more traffic tickets that I didn’t disclose. What do you think I should do or just remain silent and stick to my story?

Being on watch isn't the only time gundecking happens

I watch ads all the way through for you JT!

isn't infidelity in the Navy grounds for a pay/rank decrease as well? or is that not true

In summarization, follow Oath of Enlistment and stay out of disciplinary action.

I got a DUI on the base, had a few drinks on a visiting Canadian Destroyer. Went to mast. No RIR or RIP but got sent to DAPA. Got a 6 week vacation at Balboa. What a load of horseshit. Eventually the whole thing faded away and I did my complete time. Not something you want to deal with. Drink responsibly.

oh that Missing tool procedure and tool program, That's why I am shocked when I went TAD to ER09 and saw the tools are just all over the place no accountability. LMAO it was so much easier to work there but hard to find tools you need haha

Downloaded Sandbox... not too bad.

My uncle - RMCM with 44 years - said, "You can get away with almost anything as long as you make it to muster."

I was told to only call my chiefs by their last name and maybe preface it with ‘my guy’ so chief smith is my guy smith
