Served 1982-84 at Ramstein Air Base 1964 Communications Group Always Proud and Lucky to have been Called Airman.

Yep, I had a cool desk job! Getting up early in the mornings, going out to the jet, running pre-flight checks for an hour, launching the jet out and recovering it when it finishes it's flight. Then spending 3 hours on a Basic Post Flight inspection including donning coveralls and climbing into the exhause of the engines. Finally finishing up after a 12 hour day if I'm lucky and don't have to fix anything broken on the jet. Yep, I loved my desk job in the Air Force.

#1 for me is being able to say, "Been there, done that"

Priceless. I was half way thru college when blasted diabetes ended my USAF career before it could begin, but I am glad it's in such good hands. 'God Bless the USAF. And chix do dig jets.

@SpAgent108- You and your grandfather are the kind of people who keep this country strong. Thanks to your grandfather and you in advance for your service.

I like the guy at 2:02 because it sounded like he went through 5 cue cards. "Always fun...watching the new guy...try to parallel park...a C-130...Hercules." haha

Score a 93 or above on the ASVAB and you'll get one of your Top3 jobs. I got a 99 and got one of mine. Love it, too.

Chicks dig planes!

@10oner the air force enlisted is mainly made up of technicians, we're normally not in a situation that require us to fight unless you are special forces, like you listed, or security forces. but we do lend a hand to the army quite often so you could technically be a jet mechanic working alongside a ranger in a convoy for a year in the desert. ask a recruiter about getting into specific career fields. First, you must qualify of a job with your asvab scores, then pass tech school.

Sorry to inform you, but you're wrong. IN 1994, the Air Force took away the circle insignia for enlisted, and we all wore just a plain U.S. insignia. Then in 2008, it was restored to the way it used to be, with enlisted wearing a circle insignia.

Much Love to the Air Force, The USMC thanks you when we get in a tight spot, GOd bLEss

ha ha ha the bunnies and stuff one.. good stuff. parallel park a c-130 got me too. i work on them ha ha

I enlisted yesterday out of Ramstein AB Germany ;)

I am in the AF too and I love it!

@goddamnbouy just to let you know, Mr. Expert, when the Air Force switched to the current Service Blues in the 1990s, they eliminated the Enlisted U.S. insignia however, that was unpopular and the Enlisted insignia returned about 2 years ago but this video was posted 3 years ago

I'm in the air force and i love it!

@Omatusano Good luck. Glad to hear more people are thinking about joining the Air Force. I, myself, am joining. I'll be heading to MEPS in a few weeks to get my proccessing finished and swear in. What job were you looking into?

I agree with you. but some jobs your in the air but not as the pilot. Like a boom operator for the KC-135.

Every branch rags on another, its just service to service fun. We all need eachother, we all serve different roles all for one main purpose, Defense of our nation, and that is what we all do.

You're looking at a guy with one million frequent flyer miles. excellent.

cool thanks man

@SpAgent108 I wish you luck. I feel excited about Basic in the coming months. I can't wait. What job were you looking into?

Thats awesome! Im in the DEP right now. leave for bmt aug 5th at lackland then keesler for atc tech school then i want to go to ramstein germany so pretty cool

That's where I'm wanting to go, too so I can practice my German more. But I'm going into ROTC at OSU so I can have a better shot at becoming a pilot while I attend one of the US's top ten flight schools.

thanks man i hope to go there anything i can do early to get reconized?

@AirForceBullDAWG How Much longer do you have? Im doing ROTC going in as a Nurse Im just getting started

Go USAF!!!

Theres AF ROTC at the high school im moving to. What do you have to do to become a pilot?

Or Aerial gunner, even Phoenix Raven Security Force members get air time..

"bunnies and stuff" hahahaha

yea its true 'chicks dig planes'

REALLY?! I'm have none of those jobs, but I've been ambushed, shot at, blown up, co-workers KIA, etc....

What the fuck is this?!?! Technical Sergeant rank with officer U.S. insignia?!?!

Jeez those are some big dudes.

ive been seriously thinking about enlisting. what are some things the recruiter doesn't tell you?

Why is the TSGT wearing an Officer's Insigna on his collar?

#1 - top gun!!!

when they said that, they meant that they come home for a week RR back to the USA

@Omatusano just remember if you do end up doing worse the second score stays. I am also planning on joining the air force.

Chicks dig planes! Ha that was funny!

@Omatusano What do you mean by numbers recruiter?

That's AF Chicks for you, Bowchickawowow

I just laughed at the bunnies and stuff comment.

@SpAgent108 Outstanding! Thank your Grandpa for me. I just want to warn you to take the things the recruiter says with a "grain of salt." They will do their best to tell you what they want you to hear while still telling you what you want to hear. But, I don't want to deter you, just be aware that once you go active things may or may not be as your recruiter told you.

@goddamnbouy Maybe it's from awhile back when we all had the same U.S. insignia?

Pretty sure those are the old US insignias. Considering video is from 2007, it should have been in regs. Correct me if I'm wrong.

DROP DA BOOOOMMMMBBB

how often do you guys get shot at like compared to infantry and why is it that everyone in pj or tacp jtac looks older also how hard is it to get into this

The comments are so old.

Dustin Peters who I personally served with, and Amn Andersonn who I went to tech school with and who replaced me. Plus others who weren't on tour with me. Oh yeah, Vehicle Operations, Vehicle maintenance run with us as well. And how is 79 KIA's not that bad? If 79 friends and family members of yours were killed, would you say the same?

They did away with the enlisted U.S. insignia a couple of years ago. They said we all serve the same country.

@SpAgent108 I know it's been a while, but how did it go?

C-130 loaders rock!!!!!!!

wasnt the rammstein air base the one that had the huge ass accident in the 80's

i was a cadet 1st Lt. Sorry for the Misunderstnading

ok so this was so saddening to watch, but i have to say #1 had to be the best one. In fact where did they find these people? ive been in ramstein for almost 3 years and never seen any of these people

Probably taking it back to the closest base to there house if it's even that close. .. That's only cool though if your a pilot in the officer side. Most people in the AF don't even fly.. Unless your a boomer, or going on TDY's which most tdy's go to crew chiefs

that was... not what I was expecting.

cool

lol dang chairforce

My son just left for basic!

ya very good grades especialy in math and science. also athletics probably help out a lot and you have to get a letter signed by a guy i forgot who sorry. its a very hard school to get into

lol #10,#7 and lmao #5

haha wow I grew up there, frankfurt, ramstein and sembach, in germany, the air force is in my blood that why I'm pilot at 19, the military is in my head, (reason, I date men in uniforms), and germany is in my heart, so that why I'm coming back there after 9 years. Go Air force wooo

Yeah all those G forces you'll be pulling in the C-130 right? =] Funny vid though lol USAF hua!

My Daddy was AF!

you say fighter pilot like you can just walk in and be like " i wanna fly that f-22 right there" and the recruiter says " sure thing. here are the keys " . . . im trying to be a naval pilot and its no easy task buddy... i hope i get in to ocs as it is .

yeah C-130 POWER!

being in the air force, i disagree the previous comment. shefall13 is ignorant to what's actually going on. on the other hand, i loved the video.

Chicks dig planes

What do you gata do to enter you gata have very good grades? exactly or what.

isnt ramstien a band name?

what's a "ghost"?

Go air force

lol i was expecting one of them to say blow shit up.

LMAO! @No.6

Id kill for a posting to Germany!

@AirForceBullDAWG Good luck!

haha. Yeahh. I'm surprised that the percentage is that high. Perhaps 15% of officers are pilots? As for getting a 99...I've always just been fortunate with standardized test taking. (:

no that thing is 10 thimes biger then your van

Not at Ramstein...

lol

ahahahaha all of you are hilarious. NUMBER 11. being security forces and staring at one side of a plane for 16 hours a day with eight hours of crew rest before you have to be back in to work for your 4 am shift. working true panamas (3 on 3 off 2 on 2 off.) where they call you in on your off days. The real air force.

number one hHAHAHAHA

Enjoy you IED's ill be collectng my 90k re enlistment bonus for ATC

@AirForceBullDAWG Let me know how that goes brosky!

@tomodude6542 Uh... That'd be the Navy.

I am in the Air Force. Why is this not even slightly funny/ relate-able to me?

yea that's why we kick ass everywhere we go

@tomodude6542 Top Gun is the Navy

'MERICA

Why was the first Tech. Sgt. wearing officer U.S. insignia on his dress blues?

@gr1m4ce nonner
