- Heya! As you can see from the title and thumbnail, this video is all about what I packed for Air Force Basic Military Training.
I may or may not have overpacked :') But I'm very much the type of person that rather pack more than I need and be safe than sorry.
If you're leaving for BMT soon or thinking about joining the Air Force, I hope this video helps you figure out what you want to pack or gives you an idea of what you should/shouldn't pack.
Maybe in the future, if you're interested, I can make an updated version of this video and answer any questions you may have.
As always, thank you for tuning into my video. If you enjoyed it, be sure to leave me a thumbs up and subscribe to see future military content. Thank youuu! :D
You made me feel so much better bc I’m 100% “overpacking” but like you, I rather have what I like instead of being without 🤷♀️😅
Yesss!! I definitely felt that way. I didn't really need to buy much of anything at all while I was there because I packed everything and it lasted me the whole time! Rather be safe than sorry lol
Awww the cat was so sad. He knows his friend is going away.
He’s a mush and I miss him so much 😭
hey did you get all of your liquids through TSA? how many bags did you have them in? I'm bringing hella shampoo+conditioner+gels because I know the PX won't have it, but I have 2 quart size bags filled.
Heya! I got everything through tsa. I had two bags that I had filled with all types of stuff. I don’t think it matters how many you bring, as long as you put them in travel sized bags and I labeled them with a sharpie. Any extra I left in my civilian luggage and asked the MTI to get it when I needed it
Hey, where in the bad did you put your paperwork folder? I’m asking because I have the same bag and I was wondering if it was gonna fit in the sides or in the big pouch.
Hello! I put it in the big pouch. If you have a file folder like I did, it definitely won’t fit in the side pockets.
Did they give you a problem about your toiletries that you labeled since they were not in the original packaging?
No I had no issues at all honestly 😊
Where did you keep Apollo while you were away? I have a cat but I don’t know where to keep her because unfortunately my family doesn’t like cats :(
Apollo is my bf’s cat. I do have a cat though. I left Annie Oakley with my grandparents. They love her. I would say try to find a friend that can take your cat in temporarily until you can get them back. Or convince your family. I still pay for everything my cat needs. I send packages through the chewy app. Maybe if your family knows that you will financially care for the cat, they will be more willing to take her/him in temporarily
Can I wear my hair in a braided ponytail? Also, what should I pack to sleep in?
Yes you can have your hair braided in a ponytail. If it’s a long ponytail, you’ll probably have to throw it into a bun. As for sleepwear, you’re only gonna sleep in civilian clothes maybe the first two-three nights then after that you’ll be sleeping in pt gear. I packed a large shirt and some sweats if I remember correctly. Just pack something comfy and appropriate. No short shorts or crop tops, things of that nature.
Were you allowed to use every hygiene item you brought as well as the shower gloves and body brush?
Yes I was! You only have so much room in your security drawer but you can keep the extras in your civilian luggage. Whenever you run out of something you can ask your MTIs if you can grab it from your luggage since they keep it locked up in a room.
Did you get all of your liquids through TSA?
@@shadaijafoster3814 I sure did. No issues at all. Just make sure your stuff is travel size. if you have a product you really like but it's not travel size, just put it in a travel size cotainer and label it like I did
Thank you so much I ship out Tuesday 😭😳
@@shadaijafoster3814 good luck! You got this 💪🏼. Once you get into the routine, it will be easy😌
Did you get to keep your tiger balm?
Yes I did! Came in handy too!
Ok so I ship out tomorrow. I’m bringing 7 sports bra and a nude bra for my blues, a pair of Nike shorts and a t-shirt to sleep in for the first few nights (I don’t mind wearing the same thing for bed.) I have 2 pens and a mechanical pencil, I’ve got 10 pairs of underwear, 3 pairs of jeans and 3 tshirts for the days we don’t have our uniforms. I’m bringing envelopes and stamps. I have a notebook and sticky notes for studying along with a highlighter. What documents did you take? I’m taking my social security card and proof of vaccination, will I need my birth certificate?
You sound like you’re pretty much set 👍🏼 I brought my birth certificate as well just in case but I don’t remember necessarily needing it. But I would take it along as a “just in case” situation. Good luck!! You got this 💪🏼👍🏼
@@kittyinc thank you so much!! I’m exited but nervous. I just didn’t run, I’ll be fine with everything else
You 100% overpacked for BMT...
Yeahhh I’m pretty sure I mentioned that 😅 But also, it’s just in my nature to overpack 🤷🏻♀️💁🏻♀️
Did you have to take your piercings out?
Where did you get your lint roller? 👀
Target ☺️

She probably left on the 30th, I leave on the 7th
I left on the 29th of Aug but didn't fly out until the 30th. I graduated on Oct 21st :D
I hope you did well and graduated
