@@joenop3393 i think you are right. Thats funny shit🤠

T-shirts were the worst... It had to look a cut piece of cake.

Went thru in 1986......We had no down time until 2200-0400.

That is 100% true for every branch.

I feel like ima have trouble falling asleep 😂

Especially when they take you into an auditorium for a brief

No, going to sleep.

and the green duffel bag

@@ryandickson2224we do get all of that still. This is literally just an hour clip summarizing everything. We got chewed out from day.

We were one of the first flights to do integrated flights. We lived in seperate dorms, but when we formed up in the morning it was males and females. I think it's good because you work with women a lot in the actual air force. It wasn't the best when everyone had a crush on someone tho. Took away from training at times

I was in an integrated flight, it was a really cool experience. Graduated BMT recently. February 23rd to be exact! I was a dark knight, 324th training SQ !! 🔥

haha same

No it’s horrible

@@user-pb1nv5kp1b That's the point. They want people who are mentally tough to serve.

Don't let it stop you! I had someone in my flight in bmt, he couldn't do a pushup before he went to meps. His roomate at the hotel literally convinced him to try to do one and it was hard for him. He still graduated bmt in the end. I couldn't do a pull-up before I talked to my recruiter, but before I shipped off to BMT I was able to do 12 in a row because I worked on it. If weight is an issue, that can be hard and annoying to work with. I was actually underweight so I had to eat more before I joined. Never forget what the military can do for you. I have gotten to travel and see more in these past few months than I ever did in the 21 years I had before I joined. I had a shit GPA in highschool, and now I could get an education whenever I wanted. You can find your dream job in the military. If not the air force, then the army or somewhere man. Don't let your body get in the way until you talk to a recruiter. You never know, they might just take you as is

get fit then. hardly an excuse

If it's a non-medical reason then you can join in. They will get you ready even if you can't do a single pushup or have a 12 minute mile. By the end you will pass.

I'm 35 going bt in April. I can only do 20 push up, 16 set up, 5 pull up, and run 11 min 30 sec a mile. Not many days left and I aint quitting. WISH ME LUCK. If I can you can too.

Biggest tip I have is don't be discouraged day one. Everyone, and I mean everyone thinks they made the worst decision of their life when they first arrive to bmt. Just keep in mind that the actual operational air force is nothing like bmt. Oh also have fun!

@@tylersirko5959 i appreciate this brother! i’ll do my best!!

How did it go by the way? Have a good time?@@egotisticaI

Did it go well?

I lowkey hope I get Alcatraz just because I heard Disneyland is WAY more detailing

@@Logan_Basilierefr me too

@@Logan_Basilierebut details are the fun part!!

Me too lol I was a dark knight

💀

Hi Reinhardt is Finn! 🫶

Holy shit long time no see, hope you're doing good in operational

Depends on a lot of stuff. Tech school is literally right after bmt. No joke the day after the last day of bmt you go to tech school. I didn't have a ship date until my AFSC was confirmed. That took about a week for me

@@tylersirko5959 AFC was guaranteed upon enlisting. It’s been 2 1/2 weeks since swearing in and nothing from the recruiter.

Sorry wingman but your MEPS does stuff hella different than mine. Your recruiter should have a list of jobs available for the upcoming month/few weeks, and from that list you should be given a job. Unless you're job locked and you're just waiting for one specific job to be available, I'm unsure why you wouldn't have a date. By the way, I'm not saying waiting for a specific job is bad or anything, honestly if you have the option to do that, I would.@@DoucheRocket

I swore in and got my job about 1 month later. Then left for BMT about a month after that.

even from 2013 it's oddly neutered. i'd imagine it has not gotten harder at any point

10 minutes, although some guys who were sick got 15 depending on their condition.

I have no clue, I think it's just for convenience really. The second haircut we got in week like 7 was done in an actual salon-like building. My MTI told us it weirded him out every time he saw it because it was exactly the same as it was 10-15 years ago or so.

During basic we were only allowed to say sir/ma'am to instructors during the first week of training. After that we had to specify rank to ensure everyone was familiar with rank

@tylersirko5959 Gotcha. I'm way older (went through in 2003) and it's interesting to see the changes... We had to say Sir/ma'am the whole time.

@@b.entranceperiumhalfway through my training last December-ish it switched back to Sir/Ma’am

@@tylersirko5959I just graduated from Lackland two months ago. We used only sir/ma’am for all 8 weeks of training

​@@kyler1282 sometimes the comments are more up to date than the video

If I’m not mistaken, you can join Airforce if you are 39 or younger, but the army is 35

Ok sir but who can help me how can I get there to join

@@josephokumu1279 If you can get additional help you might be able to make it before you’re 39, but it will take time and money. I would call the recruiter and see if they can help you more.

@@josephokumu1279 have you tried to call them my last comment got removed but you can look up the recruiter numbers for anywhere in the US on google and speak to them

So like he said you should be able to join the airforce, but you might not be able to join the army. www.usa.gov/military-requirements here's a neat website with some information that might help. You could give that number a try to talk to a proper usaf recruiter. Be advised that I'm just a normal Airman, not a recruiting body. Also be advised that as far as I can tell you must already have some form of citizenship in the united states before you can join. @@josephokumu1279

Exactly what I thought.. what a joke if they are...keep politics out of the military but you know they can't...

@@Gymrat-1985since when is not spreading illness political

@@celiphon3812 forceing you to wear a mask or getting vaccinated is most certainly political...they kicked out over 3,500 service members for this...they military tells you not to be political but they most certainly are!

@@celiphon3812i guess cloth is political now😂😂

​@celiphon3812 you're still falling for this pandemic bullshit? This is why the propaganda will never go away...

Same here man but that was the PRC, they faked us out and then when we hit the sq all hell broke loose, also it was 0300

Frrr back in the day was the crazy and fun days now its hella soft

I think they eased up for the video I just recently went through and my experience seems very similar. Them disneyland dorms must be easy mode

I just got done with bmt. I would not call it soft then again I was in one of the alcatraz squadrons so that may be why. For the first 3 weeks i was getting screamed at and smoked on the daily.

Lol 😂 I assure you, your time was no harder, lol. It's the Air Force, Air Force, and hard don't go together

A lot of the yelling wasn't shown on video. We had people who get yelled at by two MTIs at the same time, and all that stuff. That don't cuss you out or anything like that tho if that's an issue for you as well

This was filmed near the end of 2022. as far as I'm tracking, we were the last flight to wear masks for any portion of training
