Retired at 26 years. Pretty much the same type recruiting story. Marines and Army called me every night. Navy, here and there. Air Force could care less about me joining. I figured, that had to be the right way to go.
The Air Force has always been a little more "laid back" than the other services. I've even heard them referred to as "A private business but with uniforms." Ha ha. But PJ's and CCT's are totally different. As good as or even better than Seal's or Ranger's. The cream of the crop so to speak.
This man is the epitome of an American Man. I have shown this video to my boys because Cion's level of competence qualified with his innate humility is the cornerstone of success. Wonderful video and wonderful interview Kyle. Thank you!
speaking of IVs... I'm a loadmaster. at the time of this really short story i was flying on the HC-130P on a local training line with some PJs. They were doing IVs on each other as the plane bounced around on the flight. There were only 2 PJs on this flight, so they were taking turns on each other doing the IVs. One of them was having a hard time because it was night time, and I could see the guy getting poked trying to guide him but having a hard time because it was his own arm and they werent on comms so they were just yelling. I asked the pilot if he had any reservations on me giving them my arm to train on. Nope. long story short we spent about 10-15 minutes trying to get a vein on me. good training for him i guess :D my arm was a little sore but that IV was nice. cools you off during a low level during the summer in the south.

Really love these personal interviews with different jobs in the Air Force! Can you do a video with someone who works in Services? Many are scared to receive that job & also many don’t know much about what they really do.
These interviews are so invaluable. I actually chose Air Force over the other branches because of helpful conversations I had with random airmen at cafes (I was studying for the ASVAB). Now going through MEPS and everything, I've gotten to talk to more soldiers who've been really kind to share their experiences and knowledge. I'm really interested in pararescue, and watching this video feels just like another helpful conversation. Keep it up man 👍

I'm airforce weather and I had to do ECAC which is a week long SERE course because I'm army support. To this day still the best training I've ever received in the military
I work at a gym and have been working out every day (except weekends) and will continue to do so until I graduate college. Once that is done, Air Force Officer Program. Pilot is my first pick, CRO is my next.
Thanks for the video and info. I'm from Trinidad (in the Caribbean ), I plan on joining the US Air Force next year only to be a PJ. I just can't wait for when opportunity meets + preparation = good things can happen/ luck as some may call it.
Would love to be a PJ someday. I have to wait another year or so before I can join due to medical issues, so I’ve been looking up ways I could prepare to be a PJ. Figured if I have to wait a year before I can join, might as well make the most of it and train. This video was extremely helpful!
Haha, this dude was on the AFSOC recruiting IG and youtube channel. Wish he’d talk more on the Special Tactics side, I know it might be hard since maybe he’s only been at Rescue Squadrons but I know that some PJs are at Special Tactics squadrons like at McChord airfield, Pope airfield, etc. So I’d like to know what exactly the difference is in training/mission set (I know they’re trying to merge the two as well). Love the video though man, big kudos to both of you for making this happen!

About 120 Coneheads started out, I quit when there were 9 of us: several did not make it through the Pipe. Guys, it crushed me for years! Okay, since I've sorted myself out: personal life is dialed, early life trauma dialed; I now run ultras, hit the bike through mountains, climb, teach my kid freediving, can breathhold 75m 42 pull-ups max. Would I "now" change my decision to have quit? No, as I've been through a sort of Dante's Inferno, redemption through JC, but it was in retrospect a decision that added to my already traumatized life -- light at the end of the tunnel, though. I wish there was one piece of wisdom I could convey, but there's nothing better than this -- DON'T QUIT.

When I was at the Security Police Academy the PJ's were looking for volunteers so they put everyone in a room and showed a movie about what they do including Vietnam footage. Anyone not interested can get up anytime and leave the room. The room was empty before the film ended. FUCK THAT.

@@UnitedStatesofAmerica1984 I served as a United States Air Force Security Police Officer (Law Enforcement Specialist) AFQC 81152, 83-89, 317th Tactical Airlift Wing, 317th Combat Support Group, 317th Security Police Squadron, Pope AFB NC. Today they are called Security Forces. Did you serve? Were you Air Force? I'm guessing 1984? If so, you know about the SP's. Little known FACT. The Air Force has infantry. Ask me how I know.
PJs are war fighters. I know because this former Marine is/was a PJ with the 106th that battled a hurricane in the Perfect Storm. Our military is more integrated than ever. We are all one. We have kick ass training, and we are indistinguishable from our fellow war fighters on the battle field because we all are trained to kick ass and win. Every specialty brings a dimension to survivability. All operators live with each other on missions and die with each other as well. Operators work their asses off to win all day and night.
I would love it if you could get a pilot on here. I know its an officer career field and you might not be able to get one to come on, but I would really like to hear about their experience.
@@macsuma The class was made for people who never worked on vehicles in there lives. So you should be a head of the class.

I like that he talked about the career stuff, it's good to know that it's common for guys to do something that takes an aspect of the work and not be a lifer.
Love this video. I went thru PJ indoc and pipeline training from OLH-AMCOS at Lackland to Hurlburt Field. I learned so much and it was definitely challenging and detailed in format. I have slot of respect for PJs , CCTs, and the beret. HH PAVEHAWK is better than the Jolly Green Giants and the Pavelow. Thank u for serving, and willing to lay a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom for this great country. Might want to consider moving into the space force. Space FORCE falls under the US air Force like Marines under US Navy. We are in need of some really good men. There is so much to do and it's incredibly fascinating and interesting. HEROES WANTED!!
The PJ was a very interesting, motivated guy. I rather enjoyed the information that he gave. Its a pity, though, that the interviewer wanted to speak too much about himself. He should rather do a video about how great he thinks he is, then focus on conducting better interviews.
How difficult will it be to get this exact job ? I wanted to to do Avionic Technician, but this sounds so much more like me i need to experience this I must become a PJ .
Mr. Gott, I am about to use your sticky note tactic... Texted and e-mailed the ONE Air Force recruiter, and haven't gotten a reply back. Sure he could be dealing with other possible recruits, but I'm gonna push myself to the top of that damn list!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just contacted one and they are so busy. Only two af recruiters for the whole area. Had to get an appt to go in. But I go July 2nd to start on all the paperwork.
PJ's were recruiting when I went through basic in the 80's. One guy from our flight made it through the preliminary testing at Lackland. Found out recently he was one of the 20 percent who made it all the way through training. Did his 20 as a PJ.
@Mike will It was the 3706th BMTS, I think Flt 234 but I'd need to find my old paperwork to be sure.
20% sounds like a pretty high passing rate compared to the usual 5-10%

Air Force casting couch 😂 on a serious note my dad is a Pararescue and I respect the career field and I plan to join after college
Nice! Can you do a EOD or TACP?
Marcos Esco gorilla survival is all about tacp check his channel out
Marcos Esco see if GED users can join Pararescue or if there’s a program for it
Eod is navy bud not airforce
@@combatmedic_took_you_out1331 you're so wrong
Ghostx141x Gaming yes you can join with a ged or I believe you have to have some college credits if you only obtained a ged
Alright I got a really big question? Could you do a video on the Air Force Special Reconnaissance
He was talking about Enid, Oklahoma, when talking about the pilot training base.
When I was at the Security Police Academy the PJ's were looking for volunteers so they put everyone in a room and showed a movie about what they do including Vietnam footage. Anyone not interested can get up anytime and leave the room. The room was empty before the film ended. FUCK THAT.
Security Police Academy, what is that another Air Force job? Were they recruiting?
@@UnitedStatesofAmerica1984 I served as a United States Air Force Security Police Officer (Law Enforcement Specialist) AFQC 81152, 83-89, 317th Tactical Airlift Wing, 317th Combat Support Group, 317th Security Police Squadron, Pope AFB NC. Today they are called Security Forces. Did you serve? Were you Air Force? I'm guessing 1984? If so, you know about the SP's. Little known FACT. The Air Force has infantry. Ask me how I know.
I am loving these videos. I am having a hard time finding videos on Air Crew Flight Equipment. Do you happen to know anyone in this field?
PJs are war fighters. I know because this former Marine is/was a PJ with the 106th that battled a hurricane in the Perfect Storm. Our military is more integrated than ever. We are all one. We have kick ass training, and we are indistinguishable from our fellow war fighters on the battle field because we all are trained to kick ass and win. Every specialty brings a dimension to survivability. All operators live with each other on missions and die with each other as well. Operators work their asses off to win all day and night.
I would love it if you could get a pilot on here. I know its an officer career field and you might not be able to get one to come on, but I would really like to hear about their experience.
Didn’t this guy get in huge trouble recently and a dishonorable discharge?
Jacob Ba wdym?
Erin Freund he assaulted someone I believe
he went from serving coffee to serving his country
Kyle if you need someone to talk about 2t3x1, let me know.
I'm shipping out on October start tech school December... is tech school hard I'm been a automobile mechanic for years plus..
@@macsuma The class was made for people who never worked on vehicles in there lives. So you should be a head of the class. I will say that they're a lot of materials that you probably never heard of, or will ever work on (Alva Crane). Just stay out of trouble, I see so many people get held back because they drink or go to the strip club too offend.
Wow awesome
Can ppl with a GED Be a Pararescue even though 5% GED Users are allowed in the AF
???
Probably.
Yes, you can.
I like that he talked about the career stuff, it's good to know that it's common for guys to do something that takes an aspect of the work and not be a lifer.
Very helpful extremely
Love this video. I went thru PJ indoc and pipeline training from OLH-AMCOS at Lackland to Hurlburt Field. I learned so much and it was definitely challenging and detailed in format. I have slot of respect for PJs , CCTs, and the beret. HH PAVEHAWK is better than the Jolly Green Giants and the Pavelow. Thank u for serving, and willing to lay a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom for this great country.
Might want to consider moving into the space force. Space FORCE falls under the US air Force like Marines under US Navy. We are in need of some really good men. There is so much to do and it's incredibly fascinating and interesting.
HEROES WANTED!!
see about CCT and SR
Nice ppl already talking about SR, I'm pretty interested in their progression as well.
Jay P where at? I haven’t been able to find anything about the new SR career, appreciate it.
Holloman is in Alamogordo NM, which is way better than Clovis.
Please can you do one for SERE specialist. Really interested to hear what you could tell me about that now that you're out. Thanks!
The PJ was a very interesting, motivated guy. I rather enjoyed the information that he gave. Its a pity, though, that the interviewer wanted to speak too much about himself. He should rather do a video about how great he thinks he is, then focus on conducting better interviews.
I have the same exact recruiting story as you only difference is I joined the marine corps. Im just now thinking about becoming a pj
How difficult will it be to get this exact job ? I wanted to to do Avionic Technician, but this sounds so much more like me i need to experience this I must become a PJ .
Mr. Gott, I am about to use your sticky note tactic... Texted and e-mailed the ONE Air Force recruiter, and haven't gotten a reply back. Sure he could be dealing with other possible recruits, but I'm gonna push myself to the top of that damn list!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just contacted one and they are so busy. Only two af recruiters for the whole area. Had to get an appt to go in. But I go July 2nd to start on all the paperwork.
Airforce EOD
"you've been out for 7 months and your beard's that long?? Dude.... that's crazy :)" I laughed so hard at that for some reason.
He sold me out!! Time to go see the local recruiter! 😂
