  • Today we talk about what Army 68W AIT is like. We go over what it was like for me personally and what you could possibly expect should you go to Combat Medic AIT. We talk about EMT phase, Whiskey phase, Camp Bullis, and what your free time will look like.

    I’m currently here at fort Sam Houston for 68w taking the mod 4 test Monday… let me tell you Iv never had so much info crammed down my throat! This is something like a 6month course for EMT we are learning in less than a month before we go to the whiskey side. But it seems like this is ganna be a good career path. If I can pull through lol!

    Interesting! I don’t remember having a student council back in 2003…back then we were in bays, but when we phased up we eventually could earn 2 overnight passes a weekend, which was awesome! Good video!

    About to graduate from 68W AIT on August 3rd. We are probably going to be the in-person graduation that the family can attend before everything lock down again. Lots of things have changed as of right now everything is on lockdown again because of covid. It was a lot of fun and you learn a lot but you just have to push yourself, pay attention, and have fun.

      68W reservist here. As with all MOSs, the 68W MOS does have minimum ASVAB score requirements to be eligible for the role.
      It's not really a question of CAN you; you NEED good enough scores to even qualify.
