Hey guys, I’m an SNA about to select soon. I wanted to reach out and see if anyone has any insight into the CMV-22B COD community.
What’s the culture like? Did a lot of the C-2 guys transition over?
Is the community pretty much the same lifestyle as the previous COD, the C-2?
What’s life look like as a JO in the squadron?

^That IS interesting. Do they just drop stuff out the back, sling loads like VERTREP, or can they actually touch down? Seems... tight, especially if there are big swells.
Gear isn‘t down…probably fast rope.
Well then, they missed the better shot, personnel on the rope hovering over a SDV equipped sub
Maybe they were just delivering the mail and weekly roll ‘ems. ?
What a stupid suggestion! It's not an SDV - it's just a really, really, really big depth charge that the Osprey is going to hoist and then use to ruin someone's day
Below is an article with more information, It was actually an Air Force CV-22 from the squadron in England. I think the idea was to show our adversaries that we can fly SEAL's out from England and insert them direct to a submarine all the way in the Med with one flight. I know the guys who flew it if anyone has any questions. The whole point was to put this capability into the public eye so I should be able to answer most without worrying about OPSEC.

Osprey ropes are the absolute worst, I’d hate to have to do that onto a sub! The rope is kicked back damn near 45 degrees, terrible slide. Also why a good pic of it would be hard to get on a sub.
It’s a CrossFit gym afloat module.What a stupid suggestion! It's not an SDV - it's just a really, really, really big depth charge that the Osprey is going to hoist and then use to ruin someone's day
And yet the SEALs got their publicist/agent on the boat for the shot. Can do!
