Flying out next Tuesday for TACP 🤙🤙

God Bless them all ! My youngest son is almost finished with his TACP training and I am just praying he gets through it because he wants it so much. He had 40 in the beginning and they are down to 8. You better want it. He has worked his ass off and it’s still tough. But man can I see a difference. Unbelievable.

Shipping out for TACP, can’t explain how grateful I am for this video

Just got out the Marines.. I miss the life so much, been planning to get back in somehow. Came across your videos and honestly it helped me find that next calling. Thanks for awaking that motivation I once had before bootcamp lol. Much respect Mark 🤝 🇺🇸

I had a coworker tell me I should look into TACP back when I was like 18 because I enjoy working out and I was thinking about military. 6 years later, graduated from college and work full time, but I still find these type of videos interesting. Great content!

Leave a week from now. Can't tell you how awesome this video is

Thank you for your service

Thank you for these videos. I leave Nov 10 for TACP. Best TACP videos hands down!

I am really grateful for people like you to make vids like these so we can see the thing we wouldn't know. plus one sub

Thank you! Excellent explanation.

I was there when Bunkley was helping us for better form in WoDs, running and before Prep (2016), taught me how to ruck better as a short person.

Good shit buddy. I'm Learning things I would have never of learned on my own. Keep it up!!! I'm Sure this helps future airmen a ton. Encourages them to stick with what they signed up for. Thank you for the amazing content and your service. (:

Another great video, bud! Just reminds me of all the horrible/funny times at Basic with you

Really appreciate this

Extremely entertaining. More please! Lol

What a tough courses they are. I envy your well organized challenging JTAC training and education systems.

Thanks for the video!

Cant wait for part 2

This video is verry helpful

This makes me so hyped

The pipeline is already completely changed The pipeline now is: BMT SWCC TACP Apprentice course Airborne SERE Phase 1 Phase 2

You can never forget the sound of bridges and bunkley both harping on you at the same time 🤣”just quit it’s easier your teammates will thank you later”

Great vid👍

Digging this series, well done! (I'm ready to go, but the Navy said no...) LOL! ;)

When I was going through Army Combat Medic school in San Antonio we had an Air Force PT instructor come over and do an "Aerobics" PT session with us. We laughed at the news... Eventually, we cried at the pain...

Sitting in prep waiting for it to start on Tuesday. Wish me luck

True that if you're Combat Arms you will go through one of the CA squadrons at BMT. However if you're not CA you might also go through the CA squadron....which is an experience...

I’ve tailored my works outs specifically to the air force PT test, PAST, what are some good ways to progress in pull-ups am I excluded for not being fluent in pull-ups? I will keep working @ it but what are my chances if I’m not good at pull-ups?

Always wondered why the TACPs were always super jacked...

Have you ever thought of getting with the Ones Ready podcast? Or have you already and I just missed it.

Hey man, I think TACP is the job for me, but I’ve heard from a couple guys that TACPs aren’t deploying to combat much since GWOTs cooling down. Is this true? I know SOF TACPs are still getting after it but I’m curious about “conventional” TACPs. Thanks for the video!

@FunkyBunkley Would any of this be different if your doing the Air Force ROTC program while in college? Really appreciate your video's btw. Really dope content!!

On the 2, 3, and 4 mile rucks, what is the weight of the rucks?

Great video!!

Mark, great videos. Im wondering when you take the PAST test? is it after special warfare prep? or after BMT? any insight would be awesome

Let’s say I wanted to become a tacp there is some type of swimming involved or no because I do not know how to swim ?

Do prior service (Army) get to go to SW prep now? I know it started off with that not being the case but that they were considering changing that.

On weekends can you leave base? Only ask cus my and I live in SA, and am wondering if we are able to see them on weekends once we are in San Antonio after basic

Does prior service go through the special warfare prep course?

Can you do a 4yr enlistment for special warfare roles? Or is it a mandatory 6yr?

Also do like what type of workouts and run workouts we should do. I am doing what I see online but I can’t seem to improve

What happens if you fail. Can you switch mos or do they drop you out of Air Force all together?

Can an army ssg go tacp? Nd how many slots per year does tacp have for prior service ?

Looking to go TACP. Any advice if you have wife and kids? How soon can you see them in the pipeline?

How much does the swim proficiency matter? Are you able to go through with glasses? I don't currently have a driver's license but will I still be able to got though?

I'm so curious what's clear hot meaning when TACP and JTAC usually said it in the radio

These airmen are set up for success.

I got out after 7 years…. And I am successful in civillian life. But I miss it. I miss my boys. I’m in the best shape of my life and want to push myself. I’ve been thinking about joining TACP in the guard/reserve I’m rated 100% for PTSD and minor injuries though. I know I can keep my disability if I join the reserves, but I know I will risk losing it in the long run. But I value self purpose more. I’ve been conflicted. But I want this…. Idk why I’m leaving this comment.

Can you include the passing times for each of those events !?

Also quick question, are your HALO and if you are how long did it take you to get the school and how did you?

Lol the white board at the end

For the prior service guys retraining into TACP I've heard you take the PAST and then they send you straight to TACP Prep. Is this true? Side note, already went through SERE as it was required for my previous job (aircrew) and I actually was with the guy on the far left at 5:04, he's a PJ!

At 7:19 is that garand thumb?

So if your active duty and about to cross train is it the same process?

Can prior service go to special warfare prep? I had a date but got injured and i am prepping righy now with my air guard unit to get a new date .

Are there any vision requirements that disqualify you from being allowed into tacp training?

What's special recon? Is that what replaced the weatherman?

Air Force has best looking dudes, less mouth breathers

Have any standards "changed" as females are allowed to try out for the career field now?

I plan on becoming a TACP Officer after I graduate college next year - will OTS be similar to enlisted special forces where I get personalized PT?

What is the likelihood of going through ots then onto tacp training?

Did you consider going cct? especially since yall have to be swimmy bois soon

What about officers? Do they go through the same training and are integrated with the enlisted?

Do prior service air guard get to go to special warfare prep?

What’s the 3 mile run time required to pass?

Hey man love your videos ! I’m thinking of going tacp myself hopefully u see my comment !! But I was born with asthma and now it doesn’t affect me I can run and exercise etc but what would u say ? The school seems a lot harder than I thought! Thank you…

Any way I can get in contact with you?

Being active duty already, I am at a disadvantage not getting to go thru SPECWAR Prep/TACP prep.🥺 Looking forward to “next weeks” episode. (Low key disappointed this one took a little longer to be released 😒)

Oh shit dat me @7:00

Is your jacket tailored?

Is that a freefall badge?

1996, 6 week course, 4 or 5 in a class room, 1 or 2 on the range (brain is abit fuzzy on the time line) Basic PT 3 times a week....no sere, no CQB, nothing outside the norm. UK army, 18 yrs served. I can never understand the US forces putting you guys through what is essentially SF training. If we get into CQB, somethign has seriously gone wrong. We are force multipliers, not hostage rescue.

6:46 Was the Academics test hard?? Lol

Tacp training has swimming?

It's so funny that he put on like 25 pounds of muscle since the last video ...

How is family life being TACP?

Makes it sound fun if you don’t mind getting smoked. Having your own coaches to start.

hi

Funky, where is episode 4?

TACP here I come because I can't swim for sh#t

so cringe
