Currently in the reserves DEP program and I leave for basic training in august. Enlisted on 4/21/21 Gotta say it has been so much more laid back than I thought it would be. I’ve done 1 drill weekend and I’m serving at Elmendorf, AFB in Anchorage Alaska. Love it so far I’m so glad I picked the reserves and not the national guard. Reserves gives you so many more options.
Hey how’s it going? What difference did you get for reserves instead of guard
I enlisted as a reservist just waiting on my ship date and dang this was way more information than I ever knew about. Super informative. Thank you
Greatly informative! AF Reserve here I come!
Thank you so much for this video, what a gem of a find
Been thinking about the reserves a lot lately considering i have less than 2 years left active. I learned so much information and this was a great video.
Thank you so much for this video
Awsome info. This helps out so much.
In the guard you can get E7 in 8 years and O5 in 9 years, as long as you are in the clique. A additional benefit is, you dont have to be worried about being stationed at cannon afb or minot afb.
Exceptionally helpful video! Ty SSgt Walker and Kyle!
Awesome video, and amazing content. This is very thorough, and answers many questions
Reserves is national and their mission is international. That's why have national database. ANG is state oriented and their priority is states side but can be deployed internationally
Im currently in the ad af and wanting to go reserve or guard... funny enough im from Oklahoma and am a SF member
Is the RMSV accurate for viewing vacancies at each unit? Also are you still able cross train if your new unit has availability for your current AFSC, like will they make you stay as your current AFSC.
Can you start out as Reserve and graduate from nursing school and go full time as a nurse?
I’m here
I’m planning to change career from IT field to Medical field and I already got my Bacherlor’s Degree in IT. My question is when or can I use GI Bill as AF reserve? can I use it right away after signing up for 6 years commitment? or do I have to wait for 6 years? I already passed Asvab and Physical test. I hope you can help me before my enlistment.
Question I’m security forces in the reserves I chose a base that is far out of my range as far as commute and I wanna transfer to a closer base. Any tips on how I should go about that?
Do I need to take any exams if I have a DBA ?
Something I'm wondering if you'd be able to go over is going from Active duty into the reserves and commissioning as an officer through the reserves and how that process would work.
Once you have your bachelors you can try the deserving airman program
I'm 39 will turn 40 on February. A recruiter just told me that I can't join the Air Force Reserve. Said I have to graduate before 40yrs. Can someone help verify that information for me please 🙏.
That's funny because the Guard offers everything you stated. Technician (Civilian job with the Guard) while being in the Guard and getting the double retirement, AGR is active GUARD reserve so yes the Guard obviously offers that program also. Interstate transfer allows folks to move from State to State so you are not stuck to one State. The biggest difference between Guard and Reserve is that the Guard offers more educational benefits coming in with State and Federal benefits and we offer combat jobs unlikd the reserves. Hit me up for more benefits about the Guard!
There's pros and cons to the guard but from my experience more cons. You're correct on the interstate but it's based on the state accepting. As well guard is title 32 which is state funds only federally funded when on title 10 which is potus activation.
@@airforcereservesgtwalker you are incorrect on the funding standpoint. We get State and Federal educational benefits regardless of title one may serve under. As far as the transfers into other States- all states want the added gain so most cases they will take you but worse case someone can still drill with the State while still being assigned to another state. Overall, Good information but most of what you said applies to Guard and Reserve.
so if you’re going for the free college & to play college football. they will reschedule your drill dates ??
As long as you communicate that with your unit they should allow you to make up the drills days
Question. Have the Air Force BMT ever been done during the winter
BMT is year round there is a new group of trainees every week
@@airforcereservesgtwalker Sounds good. So I'm going for the reserve. My next question is; If I make a high score on the ASVAB then pass the physical at MEPS with flying colors do you think I'll have a chance to select Special Investigations. I'm really liking that job
👍🏼👍🏼
I talked to a recruiter about IMA, the recruiter stated after joining the reserves it’ll take up to a year after being in the reserves in order to be accepted to go IMA. Is this true and can you elaborate? Thank you
IMA is normally for prior service members. Get in get experience than apply
Not sure if anybody knows the answer to this . I’m waiting for Human Resources to get back to me . But If I currently work for Usps as a full time career employee . Can I join the Air Force reserves while keeping my current job? Can the Usps let me go because of basic training being 8 weeks ?
You can do both and your job legally has to hold your job when you leave for basic training
GO BIRDS! I like this guy.
Wait so does the 8 year obligation have to be 8 years of full time service or part time?
Nope 8 years total. First 6 years Full-time, Reserve or Guard & the Last 2 years are usually IRR/Individual Ready Reserve.
Can you be full time in the reserves as an engineer?
You can apply for a full time position
Hey. Can my family come with me to tech school? It’s at least one year if I take this job
You'd have to clarify with your recruiter but I've heard that if the tech school is over 6 months long they may allow your family to move with you but i've not confirmed that.
@@AirmanVision thank you. I appreciate it
What height do you have to be to go into the air force reserve. I'm 5'2 do I qualify?
You qualify as long as you meet the weight and body fat percentage requirements.
Are you given opportunities to deploy if you want? And if so how common?
Reserve deploy on a rotation usually 1 ever 4 years. You can volunteer to deploy if you want
@@airforcereservesgtwalker Hey Sgt Walker I want to go for security force but dont know if i should do reserve or ANG is there a any particular advantage or disadvantage in terms of SF for example do both components have the same job opportunities like the C.A.T.M
S2
Raven or K9 jobs
@@javilobby899 so K9 won’t be on the part time component but CATM is there that is my career actually outside recruiting. So reserve you have the flexibility of location to drill so if you wanted security forces but the local unit doesn’t have a spot and a unit 1 hour away does that’s out of state you can still take that out of state location and stay home. I’ll always favor reserve over guard just because were federal and receive federal benefits. Guard is dependent on state to state like the guard unit here lost their bonuses when Covid took off but us reservist kept ours
@@airforcereservesgtwalkerThat's interesting so if my home base in Texas don't have the opportunity that i want i can look to other bases that do as long as it's available on the part time component that is very good sir and yeaa it makes sense federal side would be more secure on benefits thanks for the reply sir
@@javilobby899 that is correct
Hi. I'm 42. Nurse. Thinking about AF reserve. Would i qualify?
Sorry the cut off age is 39
I think you could get an age waiver if there is a high need job
Any Luck? Always the State Reserve in 15 States. No actual pay unless they request a deployment & you agree. I’m 39 may do State or Coast Guard auxiliary… better than nothing.
Nothing a recruiter says, is guaranteed
Navy brat trying to go air force
Are you still trying to go Air Force?
