Air National Guard: Going MEPS
W E L C O M E B A C K !
I am back from my military training, which hopefully means videos will be coming in more frequently!
The military process starts at MEPS, and in this video I give you a quick synopsis of how my time at MEPS went. Along with some tips and tricks you can use before you head to MEPS.
I am enlisted in the Air National Guard, so some information is tailored to this branch.

    I'm talking to my recruiter tomorrow to schedule MEPS! I live like 10 minutes from the MEPS in my area, do I still get put up in a hotel? Also, can you post more tips that are catered specifically toward the Air National Guard, that's what I am going to do as well, but most videos on RUclips talk about active duty so it's really confusing. Especially things like job selection, student flight before leaving for BMT, and how long it takes to leave, etc..

    • @its.emilymegan
      @its.emilymegan 2 года назад

      It’s up to your recruiter if you’ll have to stay the night in a hotel. But I would assume you would , the cost is covered, they just need to have full accountability of everyone to go to the base. Being with them in the morning is your ticket onto the base basically. I would love to do more videos geared towards Air National Guard. The lack of videos and information I found is actually what drove me to create this channel.

    Hey. Would you recommend just getting items that’ll last for about 2-3 weeks because they’ll issue us the essentials anyway? Like so far, I literally have a 7 1/2 weeks supply of my soap, toothpaste, mouthwash, shampoo/conditioner, all that. I don’t mind using the soap and stuff they provide, but I need my own preferred face cream and hair care. I’ll take everything back if it’s not needed.

    • @its.emilymegan
      @its.emilymegan 2 года назад

      Hello ! You can bring them and store them with you, the issue would be getting them through security at the airport. If you plan on checking in your bag you should be fine, however you can’t bring full size items in carry on luggage

      I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to bring ear plugs, but I haven’t heard of anyone bringing them. I remember some girls in my flight had moleskin , but they might have bought it while we were there. You will sleep in your PT clothes so you’re not allowed to wear your own clothes to sleep. And no! There’s new hair regulations so if your hair is short enough you can wear a ponytail or a braid(s) !! Thank you !!

      When you are doing push-ups you just need to make sure your elbows break 90 degrees. Take a look at the pt standards and how many you can do, then I suggest just practicing. You will practice a lot at BMT but you want a good foundation.
