Army engineers can build a building from scratch. Seabees seem more maintenance

I have literally never met an Army engineer who builds things.

Sorry? I have watched them lol

We had a company of them and watched them build barracks, offices, ect

Lay whole motorpools

You sure it wasn't AF guys attached to the Army? Because that's usually what happens. Army engineers are all bulldozers and bomb disposal these days

Nope

It was our internal horizontal and verticle engineers

They get 2 weeks of training, and then are sent to their bases.

Bomb disposal is Combat

All fall under the corp of engineers but yea they do all of it.

🤷🏻

Um here

"Training
Job training for technical engineer requires 10 weeks of Basic Combat Training and 17 weeks of Advanced Individual Training. Part of this time is spent in the classroom and part in the field with on-the-job instructions."

Thats for horizontal and vertical engineers

AIT is the actual mos training

Yes, their AIT is my Tech School. They sit in the first 2 weeks of every trade school, and then leave

And thats basic carpenter/builder. Electricians and Plumbers are a seperate mos

Hmm, yeah, I've only interacted with the Utilities guys. Those were the ones doing only the first 2 weeks of school.

Electrician
Training
Job training for interior electrician requires 10 weeks of Basic Combat Training and seven weeks of Advanced Individual Training. Part of this time is spent in the classroom and part in the field with on-the-job instructions, including on-the-job instruction for installation and repair.

Day to day base maintenance is done by AF troops on a lot of Army bases as well. I had Army guys help with snow removal however....

Dump truck's a dump truck lol

Eh Joint mccord lewis. The two serviced their own sides.

And army has tons of bases without airforce

Dude Im all for inter department shitposting. But dont drink it like koolaid man

@Goblin_Slayer_Floki My friend works at JBLM. He does the Army side

I may joke about the chair force but I dont believe in it.

Hey, I'm not shitposting, I'm saying that Army barely has an engineering field, save for outsourcing it. They do better at other shit, but they're lacking in others.

Maybe there's a small group of forward deployable, well trained engineers?

Or maybe you arnt looking very far. I have been to many army bases with engineers servicing them. Now do some have contractors yes.

But yea, The air force isnt everywhere. There is much you never see.

Maybe you're right. Anyways, my point about unifying some jobs in the military still stands. There's no need to have them all so similar, yet sorta different. In the end, they all do their job the same.

Eh. Like I said it more about funding, and personell numbers. and chain of command complications.

But I would be fine with condensing the training to all at the same place and same level. The Seabees would benifit

I'll try and enlist in the Space Force when it opens up next year or so lol

I wish I could

will there be mechas tho

No, it's just a unified Space and Missle command

Wait. You were AnCap?

And in the military?

No, I was AnCap afterwards
