the technical schooling for medical jobs tends to be the longest but IMO the most rewarding once you’ve completed it, diagnostic imaging for example is I think 300-400 days in length but the opportunities civilian side wise are sooooo good with that job

He is correct looks like still pretty much the same since 81. I was in casual status for 2 weeks before tech school started. Painted a bldg. We had army MP's come to part of our tech school for P.A.R.T. physical apprehension restraint techniques

My technical school was especially exciting. We graduated. And when it was time to ship to our school we went outside and waited and waited, and waited. Then the bus pulled up we got on to it we all sat down. Made a couple stops. We continued we pulled in front of a building, if I were to estimate we were probably less than a mile from my tech school. That was really exciting

brings back memories of Fort Leonard Wood, while all the other airmen at fun at an air force base. Army base Fort Leonard was better know as Fort Lost in the Wood....nothing to do there, where army and marines always woke us up at 4:30 am bc they had to do PT and we didnt. The marines always had to do push up before class....so I picked on them and counted to make sure they did all of them lol. All the future civil engineers went to Fort Leonard Wood.

Good luck in tech school. I was a medical laboratory technician, 904xx, at Sheppard AFB. We only had AF members. We lived in the old WW2 wooden dorms. 1972. There was a 2nd phase of Tech school, which was a year long. First part was 8 months 72-97, MSgt, but received commission in 91.

It sounds like it's the same since I went through Tech School back in 2000. The only difference that I can think of is that my Tech School was split up into two parts, Lackland and then Sheppard. I don't know if they still split up the school like that or not.

Nice informative video. Many people concentrate on Basic Training but not enough is said about how A school or even C school works. One thing I did learn from this is that Coast Guard MC's go to Fort Mead for training. Makes sense since we are such a small branch and it saves all branches some money if they work together.

Hey Man, Thanks for serving. AF 94-00 here. I had a cousin just come home for Christmas and he was supposedly told by his commander that he could not wear his uniform on the airplane home due to terrorism. I had to laugh if that is true. If we have terrorists on our planes, we have bigger issues at hand. Have you heard this from any other tech school airmen?
@AirmanVision 2 жыл бұрын
I've heard some commands are iffy about it. But I never experienced it in the US. When I was overseas it was a goal to travel and blend in. But stateside I don't know why they would be worried. Probably a young Captain that had their first base overseas so when they became in charge of a tech school they have their overseas mindset still. haha

My son didn’t want to use his leave for exodus because he was hoping his FDS was going to be overseas. Instead he’s doing the LSD tour and heading to Dyess after tech school. There’s a lot of paperwork involved in getting exodus leave.
@kadyans 2 жыл бұрын
Actually, you just need to fill out a 4392 and 988 form, print out your travel itinerary, and your LES. It took me less than 30 mins to fill everything out for my exodus leave, which imo, is worth going in the negative leave balance for. And going on exodus has nothing to do with your duty station; for example, I’m on exodus and I’m already assigned my first base, which is OCONUS.

This has been the method they've been using since COVID happened. Not sure if or when it will go back to how it used to be. They used to have graduation Thursday and you got the weekend with your family and shipped to Tech School Monday. Things change all the time, they may go back, they may completely change it. But as of right now, that is how it's working.
