Day In The Life Of An Infantry Platoon Leader 

hahahaha dyin. All officers loooove their PT haha -Army Infantry veteran (Enlisted E4)

+tkSMILEY90 Enlisted E4? Enlisted Enlisted4

+TrueThat whoops. i had meant to put Enlisted Specialist but instinctively typed E4 haha thanks for catchin that.

you aren't one of those people they catch with the fake uniforms are you? ;)

fuck no. I served my time. I have run into a few fucktards claiming to be all highspeed military but couldn't tell me their unit, where they were specifically deployed, etc. it's fuckin ridiculous how many people actually try to get away with that shit

That's called extreme vanity

Kris Rose I'm glad you get it.

+Geo Nei it's cringey and seriously embarrassing

+Kris Rose he on steroids

no he isnt

I wouldn't say without the scientific bs, but yeah you're not wrong.

The scientific bs makes him funny tho lol...but yea you're right.

+Shane Smith scientific bs as in Captain America's super strength

+Angler Outdoors I was talking about captain Americas super strength

And the fighting

Such an ego trip for Dave, the poor guy having to give him compliments there to pacify him. I would have told him where to stick his camera and his ego.

Have no clue about the military what is wrong with those barracks?

+inopure415sam they would put 3 people in his room without an oven. lol

Korey Trout yoo fuck that noise, I would get out and get my own room lol.

They are essentially the same size but E5's and below share a room.

Do married E5's and below get their own housing?

Don't forget pushups for every butt the PSG finds.

+Haze VanTassel Hahah exactly

You do it properly, or again. ;)

on deployments they should be doing reforestation and plantations.

Don't forget, raking the gravel in front of the barracks.

It keeps me busy man haha thanks!

Nick Bare you’re really cute

@@eddiehernandez5823 simp

Damn you were here

MattDoesTren

Glad you enjoy them! Thanks for watching!

@@nickbarefitness meow

What made you want to transfer from usmc to army?

5 minute pt lmao

It used to be 4 minutes, but we went hard core with it.

this is beautiful

***** My chain of command was always big on "team building." I never understood how sharing a case of the dry heaves was team building, but I was only a Company Grade Officer; so what did I know?

"Apologize to PLT SGT" too funny bro

Oakwood Pulaski it don't count if its a sneak

Lol, nice catch

Damn, this is why I love the comment section

Lmao he really did too😂

Flicked

Thanks man!

2 soldiers in the same size or smaller room

E P Ramos bro I know lol

E P Ramos especially a 2lt that’s been in for 16 months in korea

@@maxmikkelsen166 or what u described and is criticing the platoon sgt's field excercise, near the wire, in s. Korea. haha, good point Battle.

Theres more fit people in the military than there are in the civilian sector but id say 20-30% of the people on any base are the “buff military image”. Wish it was closer to 90% but alot of peoples jobs dont require them to be in shape

Lol

I noticed the same thing lol.

Skill craft!

those pens and cockroaches, will be the only things left in the end.

Ink pens? Can't you just say pens?

he does want to smack him but he needs to act professional on camera. all of this is rehearsed. if i pull out a phone or camera to record anything and i am not the PAO then i get people screaming at me.

Indeed.

+Alessandro Pangia not sure why he is saying he plans the pt sessions though. the junior enlisted should be doing the planning and performing all the instruction and in charge of the PRT.

sandersriprap I have not been on deployement in Korea, so I cannot tell unfortunately.

+Danny Hepple extra thick :)

Fucvkkkk yeahhh.

I'd love to see "A Weekend in the life of and Active Duty Private"!

“Was”??

@@_uchihia_yeager_6594 Not that it's not there, it's just they're not tough on new people anymore.

@@thugiblaster65 how do you know?

Thanks for watching Amy!

Nick! Any aspirations for Ran Bat (not just school) or selection/Q man? I did both during my time. Keep that PT up and don't be afraid to aspire to serve in that higher capacity brother. It will also inspire your troops... After OCS (I was also an 11A, prior service though), I actually felt that FTXs drained troop strength/work rate (PT scores always go down) and were NOT good indicators of duties during deployment/battle rhythm. Also, during my 8yr tenure, I never got WHY joes respected the tabs so much-I actually think it is more envy than respect. When youre triple tabbed, ppl ask stupidest questions and look at you like you're another sprees or something. You're still young-put in that 4187 for selection bro, trust me you won't regret it

@Nick your a 2nd LT ?

Quentin Reynolds this is a day in the life of an officer (low rank officer but still an officer) so it's presumably entirely different compared to an enlisted rank

I work as a software manager and my day is 10 times more stressful and physical than the army by the looks of things. I start with a run into work and I don't get to sit and ponder over my food. This guys life looks relaxed to say the least.

Ashling Malone he is an officer which means he gets to relax and not answer to anyone except the XO which is the executive officer and the CO which is the commander. All this gym time and him walking to work when he wants to is officer bullshit. Enlisted have it way worse it’s more manual labor and long days. He’s built like a tank because he can go to the gym for hours without anyone calling him making him work till 8 or longer.

@@lifevlog6216 Where I come from it doesn't matter how high you climb the work ethic is always the same. Earn an honest days wage.

@@rasher331 I have a feeling his can go to SHIT in a real hurry...with no opportunity to resign. I know from my time in '86-'88 (as an 2LT, 1LT) that when you were "on" (whether time and energy draining non-war [back then...not counting ongoing Cold War]), you didn't have time for shit. But when you were off, you tried to make the most of it. I had little luck myself because when I got back from field, I was behind two weeks of meetings, staff shit, nuke surety drills (Arty BN S-2). But...that was a long time ago. I was a workout dog but I sadly gave it up during my time with Uncle Sugar. One of the reasons I moved on. And of course, as soon as I resign, Cold war, after 45 yrs, ends and my friend comes to Ft. Polk (yr after I leave) and tells me how there's no training money and he spends all his time...in the gym (humble though it was)!! Gotta luv it.

I love your videos! I had no idea you watched Nick as well!

Definitely man I do! The Army is a big family/brother hood so I support every single one of 'em

Yeah I thought it would be a good touch! Thanks man.

+Nick Bare love it sir

Then leave them to beast the fuck out of each other in the lines whilst you go home to your hot wife you met in college with your own house

Thanks!

MY father was stationed at camp casey there's an awesome pizza place called hallelujah pizza it's amazing you should definitely visit it. I can give you there info if you want to

Thanks man. Best of luck to you.

What are you trying to get selected for, juniors? I'm an officer candidate.

+Cameron Miles cool story

+Cameron Miles 10 weeks OCC. I'm on the board this week for January

+TheStoutKid I think I know two candidates going then!

Warfighter Fitness His never been in combat. Only combat his seen is in the gym.

tatum ergo I’m pretty sure O-1s have charge of a platoon my guy.

@Hammerschlägen M but all that shit aside, if things are done right by both NCO and junior officer, by the time LT makes it to Captain, he, by his own learning and observation and trial and error, combined with guidance from NCO, should be on his way to being an effective leader. Or are you going to say that top runs company and capt, too, is an idiot? I guess that goes to BN, where the SGM is in charge of BN maneuver tactics. I get what youre saying until kid can find the men's room but if that silly shit goes on two long, I'd guess THAT Lt would not be around long...certainly not past Cpt.

im sure the platoon and PSG talk shit bout him. we all did it to our new incoming PL who thought he could just start running the platoon like nothing haha. we were all Combat vets and he was fresh outta west point haha. hed tell us one thing and our PSG would be like, "were gonna do this, sir" hahaha

you will never see an U.S. Marine Officer neither lolz but is cool to see the officer POV even if is Army which is WAAYYY different. (enlisted E-4 in the USMC)

its good seeing the difference in command style an the fitness in the British army its always tabbing with over 35 lb plus and shit loads of combat fitness ie all hard cardioid

+Neil Bradley but thanks for insight sir

Trust me... us NCOs do think very much the less of him. And, while I'm not there to reign his dumb ass in, I can assure you his soldiers both:think he is a profiteering ass- clown, and have no faith in his ability to lead them in a combat situation.

You enjoy it?

MAYO Kelly how’s the journey going

Luigi?

How'd it go?

Rip

There's two worlds in the Army - garrison and non-garrison. Your "boy" lives the same life when he's not deployed.

Salute to your Boys

these guys dont see combat....like ever. Not in Korea anyway

that's forward deployed, man.

what's your boy's look like?

Same

not all, but def. most lol

What's PSG

@@abcd6242 Platoon Sergeant

Yes he did not want to do this video with him for sure

Mine never hid the fact if they like them or not. Just used them for paperwork.

I'll try and get one up.

Yeah, I'm planning on going to ROTC in college and I'm really interested in what he has to say.

Hey if you don't mind me asking what ecatly is ROTC and what does it stand for?

+Vipermilsim-22 Reserve Officers' Training Corps during college you take military classes and have pt 3 days a week you can do that for 4 yrs also receiving a scholarship or you can do it for 2 years after you complete a 28 day leadership training course in kentucky. Search army rotc to find out more.

thanks man I appreciate it!

haha

LMFAO Crushed him like a sandcastle.

2nd lts need to humble to put up with shitsacks like you and learn from the ncos around them and their beginning experiences, how else do they become truly competent commanders!

He launched so many insults his way and the LT didn't catch one.

the benefit of being 13 hours ahead of the states

Korea or Japan?

+noisetank15 Korea

Daniel Pae can’t spell lost without LT. 😂

Thanks for watching:)

+Nick Bare rite on Nick we fite for the same great country respectfully cpl Andrew ayemin 1battlion 2nd marines 3rd platoon

What exactly does he do?

No I kinda meant more what the original poster meant by "thank you for all that you do!" Just wondered what in earths he was thanking him for?

Jeez, you mean enforcing political ideology and arms deals. You guys need to drop the hard on you have for people in the army. It's literally just another job in this country.

Nothing like Ft. Puke, LA, 1986-88, let me tell ya. Of course, we were in the field so much during Reagan's last yrs, it wouldn't have mattered if we'd had a SoCal-quality Gold's there!!

Killa-King Kong yes, it is.
