While enlisted spent nearly half of a four-year hitch in training. After completing the last tech school had a month's leave before going to first duty assignment in Korea. Stayed there until ETS.
Congratulations on graduating tech school!! I love watching your journey! And you are really so helpful 💯🙌🏽 I am officially an airman as of wenesday !! And I am waiting on my call from my recruiter to find out my job and date I leave!!
BROOKLYNN WESTENDORF no you haven’t been to basic your not in the Air Force until you put on a uniform at the minimum and I was part of her journey so don’t play me before I break your toe nail
you’re not an airman until you graduate basic. you are a trainee 😂 your mti’s will never call you airman until you receive your coin. that title doesn’t come lightly
After Tech School, you have to leave to report to your first duty station. What do you do there? And how do you become a pilot? I heard about the USAFA but, I’m not sure how you apply. Is BMT and Tech School required to go to USAFA? I also heard about USAFAPS. Is USAFAPS required to go to USAFA? I have so many questions. I’m really confused.
Have really enjoyed your videos. Looking forward to more! And congratulations for all you have accomplished! I was enlisted '85-'89. I was an AUTOVON switching system specialist (two years in England) and also a computer operator at the NW Air Defense Sector for one year. Cheers.
Thanks for sharing. This is good news. Is there a travel reimbursement for an airman that uses a public transport to attend to recruiter`s assistance program, if yes; how is the reimbursement done?
This is helpful bc I graduate tech school dec 18 and need to start my pics package to leave. Also my schoolhouse just changed the rules to where we wear abus to graduate not blues. Which I found interesting
Air Force “you get a months worth of vacation days” Also Air Force “you can’t actually use them 90% of the time” Well that’s fine. 10% of the year is more than a month but it’s still counterintuitive to not be able to use them when we feel like it. I’m excited to get through those two months of hardening and be in tech school. EAD Dec 10. Great video
I have to send my son a new phone cause his Iphone just stopped working after he got to tech school in Mississippi is that even possible n how do i contact someone to send if i can
If family wants to visit when you first get to your first duty station can you sleep off of base or is there a curfew? Or can you not go off of base right away?
So if you are able to get approved for RAP/Recruiter's assistant they do not fly you out? I'm currently in the west coast(NorCal) and am expecting to be in Mississippi. Most likely will have to buy a car as well, unless you can buy airplane tickets and there's some kind of middle ground/compromise for reimbursement?
Video helped a lot.. I have a question.. I ship out for basic May 30 but I have a baby on the way. I know I’m going to miss the birth but I want to be able to go home after basic training before I go to tech school is that possible with the RAP program ?
I’ll probably graduate tech school in October😕I was wondering if I could just head straight to my duty station and use my leave for Christmas ...can I do that?
It depends on how long your tech school is. You’re allowed to have your car after a certain amount of time in tech school, but it’s not always worth it to bring it to tech school. Some people wait until after.
@@Brittanylynnlewis ok, thanks, I gotcha. I was trying to figure out, if I enlisted, if it would be best to just sell my truck first, or try to come back and get it at the first opportunity. If I cant pick it up in the first 4 months, I'd probably sell it. I have no one to really use it, or maintain it for me while I'm gone.
If i go on RAP, can i use my GTC to go to my Duty base in Shaw AFB, SC from my recruiting station in new jersey or i have to do it from my tech school in Texas?
I lived in Sumter SC. Worked at the call center, there's a recruiting station beside the call center. Never walked in. Regretting it I'm 34. I have a felony from 2007 sold 2 dime bags of marijuana to undercover police. Never smoked weed in my life. Was not sure if I could get it. Still on the fence. I'm getting older. I want to join up.
@@Brittanylynnlewis Some things never change, i.e. AF Sponsor Program is/has been eyewash at best. I only had the pleasure of one decent sponsor at seven different bases...and I've been retired for 19 years.
Stephanie Hernandez she said she won’t tell people cuz she wants privacy but In previous videos when she was talking about the asvab out around that time she said intel operation is the job she got. And pretty sure she in Maryland now for duty station
I was in the USAF 1962-1968. It was a terrific part of my life. I hope it is still that way for today's young people.
A RUclips channel with useful information. I cannot begin to fathom it!

My sons job is 2 years of tech school. Hope he has time to come home after.

I’ve been waiting for this !!! Thank you girl💚
Yasssss! Always waiting for you to post
Very helpful thank you so much
Love your channel and how helpful it is.🖤
Thanks for sharing. This is good news. Is there a travel reimbursement for an airman that uses a public transport to attend to recruiter`s assistance program, if yes; how is the reimbursement done?
Very lucky, I changed right into ABUs and started training the day I arrived on base.
Loving these videos. I’m currently 33 and considering enlisting. What is your AFSC and where did you end up getting stationed?
This is helpful bc I graduate tech school dec 18 and need to start my pics package to leave. Also my schoolhouse just changed the rules to where we wear abus to graduate not blues. Which I found interesting

Johnathan Roan what u mean you can’t use them?
Wow you graduated tech school great job dude
Thanks dude
awesome, im currently stationed in germany, in my last year of my contract, but im continuing service in the guard.
I have to send my son a new phone cause his Iphone just stopped working after he got to tech school in Mississippi is that even possible n how do i contact someone to send if i can
thank you for sharing girl

Thank you for the video 👍
So if you are able to get approved for RAP/Recruiter's assistant they do not fly you out? I'm currently in the west coast(NorCal) and am expecting to be in Mississippi.

I just wanna know how I’m supposed to stay with my wife if we both join the military
My daughters tech school is 1 month. From school does she go straight to her duty station? I'm confused about the "rap" you were talking about.
Recruiters assistance program is not mandatory but it’s an option if she talks to a recruiter about it and does the paperwork to get it approved.
Video helped a lot.. I have a question.. I ship out for basic May 30 but I have a baby on the way. I know I’m going to miss the birth but I want to be able to go home after basic training before I go to tech school is that possible with the RAP program ?
If you do not have a car how do you get to work?
My son didn't have a driver's license and he was unable to take advantage of RAP
If the recruiter is in one location where I use to live but moved, can I use a different recruiter where my family lives for RAP?
I’ll probably graduate tech school in October😕I was wondering if I could just head straight to my duty station and use my leave for Christmas ...can I do that?
Yes :)
When's the first big chance to pick up your vehicle from home? after BMT? Or after Tech school?
It depends on how long your tech school is. You’re allowed to have your car after a certain amount of time in tech school, but it’s not always worth it to bring it to tech school. Some people wait until after.

When u graduated tech school did you go straight home after?
Very good video
I'll be phase 2 tomorrow!
Mr. Meeseeks i just hit phase 2 Monday. Feels so good

What happens after tech school if you're in the reserve?
You go home lol
Do you get a degree after tech school?
When do you find out where your first duty/base is? Is it during tech school or at the very end of it?
During tech school!
😍😍
What type of questions did you ask the sponsor?
My sponsor was not very helpful lol
@@Brittanylynnlewis Some things never change, i.e. AF Sponsor Program is/has been eyewash at best. I only had the pleasure of one decent sponsor at seven different bases...and I've been retired for 19 years.
Golden hour 😂
After tech for nonners
What happens if i want to take RAP but my recruiter isn’t recruiting anymore?
You should be able to take RAP with any recruiter. :)
Keep it up
What is your job? How is it like or what do you do?
Stephanie Hernandez she said she won’t tell people cuz she wants privacy but In previous videos when she was talking about the asvab out around that time she said intel operation is the job she got. And pretty sure she in Maryland now for duty station
Please talk FASTER, FASTER..lol
