    If your USAF Security Forces assigned stateside within the USA, all you really be doing is assigned as a gate sentry and scan ID/CAC cards at the base entrances, rain or shine or other inclement weather, at most you'll be able to patrol the flightline. If it's a large base within a big city, like Lackland in San Antonio, Texas you'll get plenty of base traffic vs being assigned out in the middle of nowhere like Minot AFB in North Dakota.
    Being an SF Airman is alot better being assigned overseas like Italy, Germany or South Korea, you can see the country and experience the local culture.

      I am a Former Security Policeman 6 years Active/9 years Air National Guard and I can tell you I wouldn't trade my time in the USAF Security Police for anything ...I loved it! It is what you make it. I was stationed at Dyess AFB for 3 years in the Strategic Air Command..we had a squadron of B52D's..4 Nuclear uploaded on alert at all times. As an A1C I was a Sentry on uploaded B-52's or on a Boundry. I was a ART/SRT member and also a Fire Team member in a Armored Vehicle (we had 6 Fire Teams on Alert at all times).When I made Senior Airman (Below the zone) I qualified to be a Entry Controller and an Alarm Monitor in the Priority A area's. We also had 3 squadron's of C-130's. I did Fly Away Security. We trained 4 times a year in Air Base Ground Defense at Ft. Hood Army Base against the US Army 7th Calvary Scouts. I was on one of the first EST's..Emergency Service Team's (SWAT) in the Air Force. I got to attend the FBI SWAT School and we got to put on EST training demonstrations along with the Combat Control Team across the street from Security Control. (We loaded on 2 C 130's with a Combat Control Team climbed to 20,000 ft., the CCT did a halo jump. After deploying the CCT the 130's spiraled down and did an Assault landing on a dirt strip. We deployed in our Armored vehicles out the back of the C130's and took the objective, reloaded with the nuclear weapon we recovered from the Terrorists and did a Assault takeoff)!! I was stationed for 1 year in Turkey at a secret MUNSS site. As a SGT...I was the NCOIC of Arms and Equipment for the Security detachment and also the Team Leader for the RRT ( Recapture and Recovery Team) a joint Turkish - American Anti-terrorist Team. When I rotated back to the World, I was assigned for 2 years at Langley AFB, VA to Headquarters Tactical Air Command. The unit I was in is the Tactical Air Command Guard...we were the Security for the CINCTAC (Commander and Chief Tactical Air Command..4 Star General). and I was a Flight Chief (SSGT) for Bravo Flight. During my time in the Alabama Air National Guard I got to go to "Sliver Flag Alpha" in Indian Springs, NV, the USAF SP Desert Warfare and Survival School. It is what you make it, I did a lot of different things in the Security Police Field....AND LOVED EVERY MINUTE... except for the time I spent in a Turkish Military Prison..but that is another story!

    Two of the key things in Tech School, is to not be afraid to ask questions, and time management when you’re out of class, set up a routine of study every night after class, don’t get caught up in the new freedoms you have after class, and if you’re having difficulty during a segment of the training admit it and ask for help. If you can do that you will proudly become a Defender of The Force.

Most likely you won't do much law enforcement while you are in though (it really depends on what bases you get stationed at as some bases are mostly security duties while others are busy with LE). It is still good though because the education path gets you a CCAF degree in Criminal Justice if you choose to pursue it (pretty much an associates degree from the Community College of the Air Force)

    USAF Security Police-87-91. During my enlistment, I was stationed at three different bases. Back in the day Security Police were split into two branches; Security Specialists and Law Enforcement. I was LE. Had a great time, got to see a lot. Participated in a cold war exercise. We were deployed from Kelly AFB, TX to Lakenheath AFB, England. We set up Air Base Ground Defenses (ABGD)and had mock battles with British Paratroopers. Our lines were probed at night by SAS. After the exercise ended, we all got pissed drunk with the British paratroopers. My favorite base was Clark AB, Philippines. At the time the largest US over seas base in the world. 3rd SPG. There were 1000 Security Specialist and a little over 800 LE. Clark AB had motor cycle cops, horse patrol (Mounted Calvary) The horses were shipped over from Australia and off-base Town Patrol. If you were a cut above the rest, you had a chance for one of these positions. I had the honor and privilege to work Town Patrol. Mama San love G.I! While at Clark AB, there were several Coup attempts to topple the Philippine government. This is were are ABGD training came to bare. We had Mortar teams, 30mm grenades, 50 cal machines gun teams set up all over the base. I was on a Humvee with 50 cal. Our humvee was piled high with Law rockets, grenades, thousands of ammo..... and not one shot was fired. Bummer! Prior to enlisting in USAF, I was in the Texas Army National Guard. I was mechanized infantry, 11-H. I'd rather be USAF Security Force than Army mechanized infantry. Humping gates has its advantages. I got plenty of dates humping the gates. Defensor Fortis!

      @@johnrodriguez7742 Current USAF SF Member and I'll clear this up for ya.
      Do they graduate from Army ranger school? No, actually less then 20% of the career even gets slotted for the Ranger course and even then they have to complete pre-ranger first and that barley happens. Let's say an SF member does graduate from both Pre-Ranger & Ranger. No, It doesn't add to that flight/squadrons functionality at all. That member will still do the job of his/her squadron, They will not do any type of Ranger-esque missions because it is not their job. Honestly, the tab is just the tab, nothing else. YES, an SF member MIGHT do joint training with Army MP and Infantry as I have but that's RARE and usually only happens on a joint-base where there is both Army and Air Force.
      On the other hand, SF members attached to an AFSOC base can put in to go DAGRE which in all honesty is the closest an SF member will EVER be to becoming any type of SecOps or in other words on the Offense as opposed to the usual Defensive position we're usually put on. DAGRE members pull missions with the U.S. Military's TACP, CCT, Rangers and so on. Those dudes are on another level from your everyday SF Member.
      Overall an SF member is nothing but a gate guard or law enforcement patroller. there are MANY opportunities that one can take to get past the mundane life of a straight leg. chances that you'll be able to pursue those hopes are very slim because people already in those positions don't want to leave. If you were going to describe SF as a whole I say it is impossible, Its gotta be on a person by person basis. Way too many of us do way to many different jobs. I know a couple of members who literally haven't held their weapon for years other than to qualify annually.

There’s a lot of people that are miserable in this career field because it’s not what they thought it would be. Which I see what they mean but I’d definitely look at other options or do more research and see if you’d really like it.

    Did 6 years and ya you train a lot. Do you use your training? No. Is it necessary? I'd say most of it is because you train for situations that are unlikely to happen but it can happen. Its the hard truth you have to understand that you can do a whole 4-6 years and never have a situation like that occur. Infact the first year of your career will be spent on a gate scanning ID cards or on the flight line watching air craft then if you are motivated and stand out from your peers you can ride patrol. The key is you must stand out and rise above your peers so basically the chances of you getting off gate duty after the first year is slim. Most troops that I trained unfortunately were not very motivated because my base had a very toxic atmosphere. Not to say they were bad but their morale was not very high. I will say deployments were awesome and I'd go back in a heart beat. I can't speak for all though because some people hated being in the desert thousands of miles away from home away from their families. All in all its what you make of it and if you're not a stern hard charging individual you will have a bad time. People should also understand that the suicide rate and divorce rate is very high in SF for a reason. It's a highly stressful job but can be fulfilling. Overall in my opinion it really depends on who you are with on flight. Some cops can be a nightmare to be around and others are an absolute joy. Oh and by the way don't let anyone kid you into thinking this is on some level of Infantry or spec ops. It's not. The ground combat training is very watered down compared to army or marines and not even close to spec ops.

Know the job, do you work, do extra, out perform others, go to school, stay out of trouble and you’ll be fine and great things will come to you. Btw, I don’t know a lot of security guards that guard bombs, jump out of planes, and do convoys in Afghanistan, or deploy with AFSOC/SOCOM forces. 😉but there are parts of this career field that do. Mine is one of them. As for a state trooper, Don’t know depends on the state.

These scores, along with the results of your physical examination, will be reviewed when you undergo job counseling during the enlistment process at the Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS).

      If you’re in Air Guard/ Reserves, yes. If you’re active duty..you’re more likely to stay at that spot for a while

    There is no Pipeline in security forces stop trying to make it seem like something it's not. That's false advertisement.

    USAF Security Forces Job sounds pretty boring. You could spend 10 years, and never have a single in incident. Then one day some crazy SOB gets on base, and starts shooting people. Keep your head in the game guys and girls.

      @@alanshearer3682 did 8 years of this. If I could do it all over again I’d definitely choose a different career field. Bad working conditions, leadership, it’s pretty much a dog eat dog world. Most of the people who get promoted only get promoted by kissing @s$ and screwing other people over.
