BMT is a game. To win, you obey your orders instantly and correctly. That's really all there is to it. You are there to learn to follow orders. (And know what you are taught.) And you are taught to handle stress. Everybody gets put under stress for the purpose of teaching you how to continue to obey orders under stress. This is the game. Knowing these guiding rules, play to win. Basic hasn't changed much since I was in it and that was 1987. Sure doesn't seem that long ago to me. But it is what it is. Thank you for serving, and if you are thinking of serving, definitely do it. Even if the service turns out to be not for you, you'll have worthwhile experiences in your time in uniform.
Congratulations on your accomplishments already! Welcome to the Air Force! Don’t forget to activate your SCRA (Service member Civil Relief Act) to lower your credit card and loans interest rates for you and spouse with debt accrued before joining the service. Grateful you beat the virus! Wishing you the best on your new journey!
Than you for sharing your experience!! Congrats on honor grad!! I am currently in DEP patiently(impatiently) waiting for my job and ship date!
Thank you! I know how you feel , I was so ready to get out of DEP haha
I'm in DEP also! Waiting mode is making me nervous haha
@@ajgay1612 ive been waiting for 2 months and I'm tired of waiting lol
@@jamesnieto4220 Welcome to Security Forces!!!!…just kidding.
I served 23 years in the USAF and retired long ago. I wish you the best for a long and prosperous career. Our nation is in good hands! ⭐️
No question. I am happy to see you again..you're amazing 💪💪
Feels good to be back, thanks for watching!
Congratulations...major respect to you and best of luck in your career !
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing! My son graduated today... still waiting for a call from him. This really gives me a good idea of what he has gone through. Boys don't share as much with their Mom because he didn't want me to worry. I think he graduated honors as well. Call your family if you can! You have no idea how much those calls mean to us!! :)
I plan on joining the Air Force and I am glad to find a more updated video of someone else’s experience hopefully I can drop a video when I join. Congrats✊🏿
Thanks!
I am SO glad to have stumbled upon your video! I feel so much more confident about my shipping.
Sadly I sprained my ankle a couple of weeks ago and now I’m simply waiting to see if I’m being approved by the medical team. If all goes well, I should be shipping on June 22.
Thank you so much for such a beautiful video! Will continue following you and watching for motivation ❤️
Thanks so much for watching! Hope you were able to start your process!!
Thank you for this! I feel you on the hardest part for you is being with people 24/7, I'm the same way! I leave next week but it hasn't hit me yet!
Of course! Congrats! I don’t think it hit me til I got off the bus at basic haha
Congratulations Alexis happy to hear you again.

Thank you so much!
Good job Airman!! My boy graduates bmt at Lackland next Thursday! ❤️
Thank you! Congrats to him!!
Congratulations I was in the Air force in 1978-1982 was awesome time , Crew chief on fighter jets at Tyndall AFB 325th AGS attached to the 95th Fighter Squadron.
A little story one day on the flight line my jet landed and i parked him put the ladder on the side and the pilot had been out west somewhere.
He said hey Shoe can you help me with something i said dont know what is it . this is 1979, he said i have 2 cases of Coors beer in the luggage rack (kinda like a fuel belly tank but a luggage carrier) he said if you get it to the fence ill give ya 2 six packs . I said yes lol i was 19 . So he gave me 2 six packs and I got in the Box truck we used on flight line and said hey Sarge Tech Sargent lol you want a cold coors beer , he stopped the truck and said where did you get coors beer ( in 1979 coors beer was not sold east of the mississippi yet) i said dont worry about it you want a beer lol he said hell yes, so there was 6 of us working that day so we all got 2 ice cold slush beers lol , technically they were bootlegging beer on a fighter jet lol we had so much fun down there what memories I salute all Veterans thanks for your service
I enlsited into the Reserve in October. I ship to BMT April 6th. I'm excited to start my journey. Congratulations on getting Honor Grad, I would like to achieve that when i graduate but all good if i don't. I just want to get to the end!
Your ship date is around the corner, congrats! Thanks so much! yes finishing is the goal, honor grad is icing on the cake.
Wish you all the best. I ship May 25th and I’m also in the reserve.
@@crazikidgaming5326 I appreciate that, thank you! Wishing you good luck as well ☺️💪🏾
@@cierragirdy9966 thanks 🙌🏾🙌🏾
I joined in the reserve too! But I’m shipping out sometime in October 2021
You popped up in my feed and I wanted to say Congratulations to you! I’ve been in 11.5 years and it’s well worth it 🤞🏾🤎
Thanks so much! That’s amazing! Wish u the best!
What's yall mos?
@@Rolling2Much We have AFSCs (Air Force Specialty Code). I am 3P0X1 (Security Forces) by trade and now 8R200 (Recruiter). Please check out www.Air Force.com if you have any questions or would like additional information.
@@ABeautifulMix you are welcome and I wish you well 🤎
I swore in a few days ago and still can’t get a single push-up down do you think I’ll be able to pass bmt?
Congrats & Welcome to the USAF: AF Vet 77-91
Thank you! Also thank you for paving the way.
@@ABeautifulMix Thank you and wishing success as you enter your AF Career. Honor Grad way to go! I remember my Bmts Flight earned Honor Flight. Stay in touch as time allows.
This video helped me so much! Thanks so much for sharing. I leave for BMT June 8th, 2021! & will also be at Fort Sam for Tech School on August 9th!
Music to my ears! So happy it helped. Congrats on your ship date! I would’ve left only a few weeks before you get here! What’s your job?
I leave June 1st!
omg i leave june 8th as well
Hey i leave June 8th!
I'm looking to join by the end of Summer. I'm very scared but I've been binge watching BMT videos trying to prepare lol. I really appreciate you giving tips and sharing your experience!!!
I always tell my kids if something scares you, do it. Persevere and overcome, choose a job you will enjoy and find challenging. Remember you'll have the GI bill for college and the military offers rare opportunities that civilians can't even pay to get. Forward Air Controller is an example, guiding in bombs from the ground. Good luck.
Hannah! I appreciate you watching! Being scared is natural, especially when there’s a whole lot of unknown. I believe you’re capable though. Make sure your why is yours, Get there and you’ll be glad u pushed to the end!
Check out Elora Jean she’s been in a while and answers a lot of questions she’s funny too
@@pastorclay82 that is the worst advice you teach them to do something that may be uncomfortable and that it’s ok when a predator comes along . Being scared is a warning signal you should always listen to your intuition and view things on a case by case basis . If your afraid research it’s the fear of the unknown find out why your scared you may have good reason
@@lulubelljingles9701 irrational fears , WTF. People's warning systems is where bigotry and hate comes from. Logic is what you should listen to, not your fears. Trust me my kids are the last ones a predator should mess with.
i leave may 4th im so anxious!! thank you for this video
You got it!
Hey, I leave May 4th too!!
@@iamdestinybrown2564 ayyy we might run into each other! where ya from
@@jasminesmith8181 yeahh I hope so! Do you have ig? Dm @iamdestinybrown
I LEAVE MAY 4th! I’m from Omaha. Hope to see you there
Congrat!! What you guys schedule on Sunday? Do they let you go church? How much time you get to eat your food? What time you all get up and sleep times? My daughter wanna join
Sundays are definitely more relaxed. When I was there our version of church was watching a service on the tv in our day room & they did have different religions to accommodate everyone. Not sure if their allowing in person services just yet. I know lights out was by 2100 , waking up was 0545. Eating? 10 minutes would be pushing it .
Well done!
Thank you!!
So you didn’t do running through basic? Like every other day or what not? Thanks for the video!
♥️♥️thanks for sharing.
Hi! I’m shipping out next month, and am going in as a 4N0 as well, I would love it if you made a video at some point about the Tech School!
Hey Kailey! Thanks so much for watching! I’ll be uploading it today, be on the lookout 😍
@@ABeautifulMix Yayy! ☺️
I leave for BMT June 22!!! Aircraft armament systems apprentice!!! I’m so excited
Congratsss!!
Get used to stinking like jet fuel every day.
COVID hit my seventh week in basic, it sucked to have worked hard for the Sunday town pass then learn they were canceling families coming and everything cause of COVID.
Dannngg, yea. Especially, if you've been to an Air Force graduation, theyre soo nice. Hopefully, your family is able to visit you during tech school! Best of luck wingman.
Honor grad is so by chance you have to get a job like element leader dorm chief something like that and keep it because it’s based on points not really scores so you can get a score on your eoc than everybody else but still get it but bmt was a summer camp wake up pt, eat, shower clean, activities of the day chill most of the day lunch, more activities, dinner, shower change, mail and free time sleep, hope you don’t have ec duty and then do it all over again
Would you please do a video on TriCare? Namely how it stacks up against private sector brands of health insurance.
I got you.
OOG kc AirForce 1974. Cool. Very proud of you. But when I went to Boot Camp back in my. days they could touch you and no card to contest the drill sergeant. Air Force is the best branch of the military service you can go through
Thank you! Agreed, best branch.
whoa one run day!? I thought we were going to have to run every other day for 20-30 minimum??
I leave for bmt in 9 days, very excited, also nervous but in a good way!
Congrats!!
Wish I could leave that early…I leave August 10th
Shabeezy BOI AYO?? SAME
@@fuwdi what job did u get?
Shabeezy BOI 2A933 hbu?
First of all, congratulations. I am so nervous, I am waiting for bootcamp but I am so scared to fail and be sent home. I know a few people who did not pass a test and that was it. Not worried about physical but very stressed about the book work as I have not been in school for 10 years. Anything encouraging you can share?
Thank you! Well I can say that as long as you do your best & make effort you will be fine. I remember there were older women in my flight at bootcamp who made it, women who have a different first language who made it. If they can do it, you can! I even had a 5 year break in school , made it & I passed the National Registry exam for EMT , something I didn’t know I was capable of learning, understanding and applying (Shared that whole experience here ruclips.net/video/jHxcDRHKB6Y/видео.html) . But I was! So just believe in yourself & try!
Congratulations. What is your afsc....& how long is your tech school? Good video. You did not pick active duty airforce? You picked the reserves. Why was that? Good content.
Stay safe. Stay well.
Thanks so much for watching! I answer all that in my video here! ruclips.net/video/L8RePOqB3XA/видео.html
Just graduated from 326th, I’m at fort Sam too for 4N0!
Awesome! Welcome to the crew, hopefully I run into you!
That’s the job I booked, I leave august 17th for basic I’m super excited! Good luck with everything!
I want to join after summer(after I graduate)..I had to gain weight to join. If you don’t mind me asking for BMT what was the physical requirements to pass? And how was the Asvab
Which B-School did you earn to train at with ASVAB=72 ?
Hey! Happy I found your channel! I leave in 6 days and will have tech school at Ft Sam Houston as well. What’s your job? And how do you like Ft Sam Houston?
Heyyy! Thanks so much for watching! Congrats! My job is flight medic; 4N0 ! Let’s just say I’m happy I left Basic haha the environment is so much better . I think you’ll enjoy it here too.
@@ABeautifulMix I have the same job! But with the shred out X1, You will have to keep us updated on how you are enjoying tech school and give us future 4N0’s some advice. I wish you the best of luck!
Whaaaaaat they changed the coin???damn I was literally in bmt four months ago
What flight were you in? My son was in 281.
I am in process of joining. Started out 53lbs over weight late August. Finally make required weight but recruiter wanting me to be at least 5lbs under before i go to MEPS for physical. Did pretty good on ASVAB. My question to you is how old are you? I heard you say you are older. I am 34 abs I’m sure that will be my struggle, being “older”.
Congrats on getting the process started! I’m 24 😊
How did you loose the weight? I want to join but I want to get in shape first.
Great video, How much rest do you get in BMT?
Lights are out by 9pm and you wake up at 0
5:45 am . All the hours you’re awake they’ll have you doing something
So I leave for BMT on May 3 is basic still 8.5? I keep getting thrown around and some saying 6.5 and some or saying 7.
It’s 7.5
Just came across your page! Ima hit that subscribe. I do have a question, can you get visitors during tech school? If they stay at a hotel nearby?
I appreciate the sub :) Yea you can, as soon as the first weekend you get there. You won't be able to walk around in civilian clothes in the first week though.
Hi! I know that pony tails and braids are now authorized to be used for females. Do you know if girls are also allowed to have undercuts? I have one in the bottom back of my head, my hair covers it when it’s down but when it’s tied up, it shows
Hey! Yes they are. There was a couple girls in my flight with undercuts and they were fine. But it really does depend on your MTI & their preference. If your undercut isn’t a crazy noticeable design you should be good.
@@ABeautifulMix It’s just a 2 inch shave, no design
@@sleepyxszn1725 you’re fine then!
Does boot camp allow you to substitute pullups for pushups ? Like with the USMC.
I didn’t see anyone doing pull ups . So I’m gonna go with no on that one.
im leaving june 8th, i cant wait!
Amazing! Congrats!
Me too :D
I’m June 1st!
Hey Alexis, so were the MTIs able to scream directly in your face? I’m just wondering since covid is still going on. I know with the Navy they were able to still scream in your face which makes me a little uncomfortable.
It wouldn’t be BMT without the screaming haha Everyone, including the instructors, are required to wear a mask though.
Yeah they're all up on you screaming, like all the time
Thank you for update !
Not seeing your rank patch. Waiting for it after B-School ?
My patch is in the center! I’m an Amn. I think the old uniforms (ABUs) had the rank on the side .
@@ABeautifulMix what is an Amn?
I am super claustrophobic so I am super nervous about bootcamp. Also do not know my directions N E W S and my math is off point. Is this going to affect me?
The only part of Basic that I think could be concerning for you is the gas chamber during BEAST week, but when I went through we didn't get to do it . As far as direction and math you wont need it in basic, depending on your job you may.
Congratulations! You mentioned that you joined older, do you mind if I ask how old? I’ll be 27 this year and I want to join but I’m having mixed feelings because I feel so old lol
Thank you! Joined at 24 😊 There were ladies in their 30s so you’ll be fine!
@@ABeautifulMix oh thank goodness! I’m currently trying to lose weight to join thank you so much 😊
Oh my goodness! I’m 29 turning 30 in December and have been feeling like, oh gosh, I’m so old. But reading this comment and the reply makes me feel so much better!
@@samanthawills7468 I feel the same sometimes, but we can do it ❤️
Which are the requirements to earn Honor Guard badge ? Pushups, situps, and running ? Is it based on your age or is there a preset required number regardless of age ?
Are u speaking of Honor Graduate ? Like the coin I showed? Bc Honor Guard is something else .
@@ABeautifulMix honor graduate*
What's you plan in life after you finish B-School? You mentioned opening your own dance studio before ?
What do u mean by B-school? Yes one of my plans is to open my own studio after I complete my training and I’m actively in my career field . Also considering commissioning later on .
B-school is what old timers call tech school. A-school is boot camp. B-school is tech school. There is no C-school. ;)
@@ABeautifulMix which officer type are you looking into for CO ?
i have a question or two. i’m 16 and i’m interested in enlisting when i graduate high school. what should i be doing now to better my self in order to have a successful air force career?
Everything you need to know they’ll teach you. Physical activity if you’re not used to it. And do any research that your curious about, jobs, benefits, difference between active, reserve, guard. Stuff like that. Oh and I also talked to people who’ve been in for a while, & that helped a lot too for the things that you only know after you’ve been in for a while.
How did you handle everything mentally and emotionally?
Believe me, high school at a public school is way more stressful than BMT. There is nothing to deal with, BMT will be way easier than you can imagine.
1. Congratulations!!!! I'm suppose to go in a couple months. I wanted to know did you have to do the gas chamber or is that no longer in effect due to covid?
When I went BEAST was cut out all together. Then when I left it came back haha So it could very well be back up and running by the time you get there… or not. Things change all the time.
Thanks for the intel!
Are you able to access all the benefits of a reservist before passing B-School ? Or you must earn your rank first ?
Benefits such as paid college, subsidized mortgage, free air fares.
Soo , before I left I was able to take advantage of the the health care benefits, discounts, and TSA for flights. To my knowledge, free air fare isn’t an added benefit.
As far as school, you can begin to use the tuition assistance to cover your classes after you’ve completed your tech school and CDCs for your job. Learning & mastering your job is priority.
@@ABeautifulMix what does a CDC look like ?
I was planning on joining the Air Force , the only thing making me anxious is the ASVAB. Do you have any tips on how to study for it?.
Don’t let the ASVAB get the best of you! I do , check this video I did on tips : ruclips.net/video/9TWwVVyHyfE/видео.html
My whole flight got to stay at the hotel
How does gym time work in BMT or tech school ? Is it scheduled because of covid ?
I talked about PT at basic & tech school in these videos! BMT: ruclips.net/video/RVOMSJqBb14/видео.html
TECH SCHOOL: ruclips.net/video/Eb930tbw9AU/видео.html
How do you like Fort Sam Houston? What’s the covid restrictions? That’s my tech school as well, I’m going as a 4nox1
Did a whole video! ruclips.net/video/Eb930tbw9AU/видео.html
@@ABeautifulMix awesome thank you!
Was their a lot of girls who join the u.s Air Force? And was pull ups one of the pt test?
There’s a good amount I’d say . No pull ups
When you got in dep how long did it take for you to get your ship date????
It took 3 months! Would a video in Dep be helpful?
Yes definitely my dep has been very confusing
My grandson left for BMT on 3/16/21 and we still have not heard from him regarding his address, etc. Why is it taking so long to hear from him. We are getting worried???
Wow. I’m sorry about that. I was able to send a picture of my address the night I got there. I also had friends who’s phones stopped working & such while we were there . But hopefully your grandson is talking to his MTI about reaching out. We also have limited time to speak to our family so I’d just double check to see if anyone has gotten word from him. Also, the mail system is very slow 100% of the time so mail could be on its way. Don’t worry though, I’m sure he’s fine.
@@ABeautifulMix thank you so much for your quick reply. I truly appreciate it! And blessings to you always as you continue your military journey! Be safe and take care!❤️
I have a few questions. What was the pay like at BMT. Did you get payed every 1st and 15th of the month? I’m worried about my bills while I’m gone. Also I heard that when you get to BMT they give you a shopping card for the PX.. did you receive that? Another question what was the shower situation like at BMT during COVID.? I’m going in at 26 so i know I’m old as hell compared to a lot of the females so the petty drama will not phase me.. AT LEAST I HOPE🤣🤣. Lastly I want to say congratulations!! And I can’t wait for my turn🤞🏾
Love the questions 😆 Pay is determined by your rank! Some people had pay issues. I had no problems though. Yes, every 1st and 15th. I was able to take care of my bills while I was away & our MTI gave us time to make sure that was squared away too. As long as you setup a system before you leave you should be straight . My situation was on autopilot so I had no worries. Yes you do get a shopping card of $400, don’t get excited though cus it definitely comes out of your check haha I was in the Alcatraz dorms so showering was close and personal despite COVID lol hey hey being older is a benefit ! I used it to my advantage haha yes pls don’t let it get to u, I barely knew what was going on , I always found out after that fact 😆 and thank youuu! I’m almost done phase 1 of tech school 🥳 posted an update if you wanna see it!
Alexis Parris Alexis Parris thank you for responding! I’ll check out your update next okay I’ll have to set up my payments to be auto so I go with a peace of mind. Oh girl I just plan on getting toiletries and hair products with that $400 because I know I won’t be able to take my good stuff through security. I also had a hair question I’m doing knotless braids do you think they’d be more easy to manage at basic? This other girl said they’ll make you cut them and I’m confused as to why... I hope I get a good dorm I’m supposed to leave the 22nd that’s 10 days away. What’s your job? I got weather tech
10 days that’s exciting!! They won’t make u cut them. I did a hair video too 😊 here: ruclips.net/video/C7hFKzBTMzE/видео.html . I’m a Flight Medic ! I appreciate you watching!
For the people who didn’t get quarantined like yourself, were the first couple weeks weird? Also, did your BMT follow the schedule that’s on the AF website as far as the 8.5 weeks?
Hey, I graduated April 15th. And yes the first 2.5 weeks you stay in the squadron except for medical reasons. (Shots + covid test). No matter if anyone test positive or not!
@@fifaclipsfc3193 when did y’all start PT?
How many tests and how are the classes like? We’re they hard or just common sense?
Have you send my tech school videos?! Talked allll about this
What squadron? I was 331TRS graduated mar 5! Wolf pack! Lead the way!!! If your at sam houston look up my homies carr and manns! Good people
433 TRS , Raiders .. (I know) lol I’ll keep em in mind!
Leaving in four days!
Almost there! Best of luck!
I’m still waiting for my ship date lol the wait is killing me xD
I feel youuu
When did you sign up (like completed MEPS) ?
@@gtarules1 I went to meps on the 12th and the 13th of April
If u don't have a bank account going into bmt, will they set you up with one?
No they won’t. I provided my bank info before leaving for bmt , so you’ll need your account in order to ship out & get paid while you’re there.
You need a bank account.
Open one now
Did you train with officer candidates? Or is that a separate location / camp ?
There is an officer training school (OTS) for those who want to become officers that you have to go through. So everyone I was with at BMT were all enlisted. I’ve been told it’s an easier transition to go from enlisted to officer versus going straight in as an officer.
@@ABeautifulMix why is it easier ?
Curious what were requirements for honor grad? Thanks in advance!
It’s been a long time since I graduated but if I remember correctly you need atleast a 90%+ on your PT test and 90%+ on your EOC but it’s competitive so even if you hit the requirement you may not get it if there’s trainees that have higher scores, you also get more points towards it for “volunteer” actives for example being a dorm leader
I’m 29 gonna be 30 by the time I get out of my tech school lol how did it feel being an older one out of the flight? Also how do the jobs switch around at bmt?
As someone who went to BMT at the age of 38, expect to be either ignored for being the “old person” or constantly bugged for being the “old person.” Either way, the younger people are going to expect you to be cool, laidback and funny. If you act all mature, serious and pretentious, they will hate you. As far as jobs go, your MTI will either ask for “volunteers” or assign you to a job.
Well, for me my tolerance for BMT & tech is higher compared to those who’ve never been away from home or haven’t developed discipline quite yet. Your mental tends to be stronger too so use all of that to your advantage! And M C is absolutely correct about the jobs in BMT. Your MTI may switch them around if needed. Mine didn’t haha
@@ABeautifulMix I would add the following: Those who joined because they wanted to (i.e., to serve, to grow professionally, as a stepping stone to something bigger) did far better at BMT and in the operational Air Force, then those who joined to get out of their parents house or to get away from a bad situation back home. Age was not a determining factor, in my opinion.
@@ABeautifulMix thank you both for the advice! That was my two main concerns, the jobs and how people bond around there lol. Hoping to not be the oldest there but I will sure make the best of it. I have developed a stronger mentality over time!!
Anyone shipping out for BMT April 27th?
Me
Me!
me
Did they teach you how to do push-ups
The MTI’s are there to help you succeed so they guide you if you need it. I’d suggest practicing before you get to BMT so you have head start for PT testing.
Does you use mask all the time even pt? Thanks
Not for PT. But everything else.
What date did you ship out and graduation date? Also what is your job?
All the details are here! 👉🏾ruclips.net/video/L8RePOqB3XA/видео.html
@@ABeautifulMix oh thank you I just saw your channel pop up I shall watch it now lol
I thought you guys weren’t allowed to post anything in your OCP’s ? I’m just asking because my fiancée is not allowing me to post anything with his name tag showing or he will get in trouble.
I haven’t been told that. We had a briefing on social media and the most important thing was being aware of what you post and how you represent the Air Force. Also maybe because he’s not making the post directly or because of his location it shouldn’t be shared.
Listen to your boyfriend
Seriously, we over here at Seymour Johnson AFB post on social media in uniform all the time.
How old are you?
after tech school can you go home to see your family
Since we’re not allowed to take leave during training, I will be able to! And I’ll have a nice amount of leave stacked up too.
Can you bring books to BMT?
You can, but you won’t be able to read them or keep it in your drawer (unless it’s religious material) I brought one and they were like you won’t need that 😆
Ugh, I leave in 6 days and I am so so so nervous
You’ll be fine! There’ll be lots of parts you may not like but it’ll be worth it.
@@ABeautifulMix thanks for that leave Tuesday..thanks for the video and detailed explanation
Can you talk about the things they had y’all doing
Definitely. I’ll make a video!
I go to basic June 8th can you give me any tips for how to excel at basic.
Let me put it this way, listen to everything that is said and do it exactly as said. Don’t overthink anything or have an emotional response to anything. Nobody will try to trick you and nobody has anything against you. Above all, be yourself.
@@MC-mh2ju thank you
Is bmt less difficult since theres 6 feet distancing
I leave on June 15th, what are the major differences with bmt, I can’t find a whole lot of videos
its honestly still the same but with masks. Mtis still scream at you, pt, drill. Honestly they made the cleaning factor harder you had to clean a lot and they did a lot of inspections. Like she said in the video its really tedious.
I leave June 1st!
Me too!
Me too!!
Hope to see yall there. Are yall excited?
@@ieshabennett-knight3738 excited but super nervous 😬
@@dazeofnostalgia don't be, I believe it's going to be what you make it. Go in to learn everything you can and just do your best. Most of all just enjoy the moment and this time in our lives. You Got this!!
How fit do you need to be? I want to join but also prepare for basic training ..
Just look up the air force pt workouts and standards to see
Seriously, there is nothing to prepare for. You will be surprised by the number of fat trainees at BMT.
@@MC-mh2ju really?
@@elewis0725 Yes.
How did you catch COVID?
I don’t even know lol
If I had a mask the entire time at BMT, I would have never gotten smoked for grinning and laughing.
that mask saved me so many times
Congrats Airman, any chance bmt graduation will be open to families by summer?
Thank you! Well it’s hard to say. I do know since Texas decided to stop wearing masks it puts the chances low 😬
The current Covid regulations in place are set to expire mid-may, so that is when the situation will be re-evaluated by the leadership and they will determine whether to continue the graduation closure or open it up, and which guidelines to open, etc.
@@brendanpeck9780 thank you, does this mean they also don't get Liberty on Friday and Saturday?
@@pastorclay82 That I'm not sure of, I recall seeing somewhere that they moved graduation up a couple days so trainees could get sent to Tech school sooner, so I'm assuming they don't then. However, as with opening graduation, that is due to change and if it does, it'll change in mid-may.
And I'm not a professional, I actually leave soon so whatever I know is from me trying to be prepared for what to expect, which has been really hard because it seems like things change every week in these Covid times
@@brendanpeck9780 hurry up and wait, that's all you need to know. It's fine to wait 3 hours after your appointment time in the waiting room. But, if you are 1 second late to the waiting room you're SOL.
