All of you saying this in BMT, it's not, read the title... "Air Force Academy" smartest dudes and dudettes around. They aren't there to be killers, but to be leaders of the best damn military around.

This isn't Air Force basic. These are school kids being prepped to become future officers, with different arrangements being made. Most enlisted personnel go through Lackland AFB in Texas and are thrown in a room with 40-60 other guys.

I'm prior enlisted now in the ROTC. I went to Lackland Air Force Base for DLI and to stayed in the 4th floor of the Army private barracks. Since we are junior officers we had more freedom than privates so we can walk around the base and do stuff privates can't do, some of my buddies and I had the curiosity of how basic training for the Air Force is so we passed by their barracks and wow, those aren't barracks, those looked like departments, with elevators, their own DEFAC they trained really late (army standarts) and have a lot of freedom too. To be honest, I would love to have a basic trainig like them they are really chilled there.

@Ihuicatl 8 жыл бұрын

+Josh Martz We didn't get to use the elevators. Those are for the MTIs; not the trainees. You train in the morning in the Summer; later in the Winter. Did you see the flags? It is San Antone, they have to be careful with a lot of stuff, the Air Force has had many trainees die from not paying attention to the weather with PT. Every squadron has a DEFAC, not one DEFAC for the whole base. The AF has only one training base for all of the Airmen-to-be. And as for freedom? Later in BMT you get base lib but not starting off. We have to earn everything that is given to us. I will say this though, it is chiller than the others but tough none-the-less.

Dude this is the Air Force Academy, ONE venue used to become an officer. This is just for them to get their commission and 4 year education. If these people get a job that has anything to do with combat, they will have extensive training for those careers after they earn their commission. It's like pilots. They get a commission then go to flight school. Officers in other combat roles are the same - they get their combat-specific traininga fter their commission. So don't worry.
