@Joab03291999 why would I do research on something that doesn't apply to me anymore? Not like I care, it was just my fomment at the time. Lighten up bud. 👊
@@OriginalRyanif it dont apply to you anymore and you havent done research why say it in the comment section as if you know what your talking about confusing people looking to join?🤔
These are 100% accurate. Exact same thing I told my son before he left 3 weeks ago for BMT. He's in the same BMT unit I was in when I went in (320th TRS).
I wish these videos were around 30+ years ago. I wouldn't have stayed home. I was going with a friend in the Buddy system thing. Changed my mind a month before leaving. Recruiter said I would regret that decision when my friend came back. I graduated from college and he still learned more than I did.He stayed for almost 30 years.
In the chow-hall , take all you want but eat all you take . During the time while you are in the BMT , Keep your eyes open and keep your mouth shut except when you are required to talk or sound off . Have fun . The trainings are such an excellent one which will bear with you for the rest of your life . 🇺🇸
@Joseph Yuen I was born in 84.. you think a shark attack scares me after my grandfather and uncles got done? Try calling grandma 'grandmother'! Flapping my arms is WAY better than picking your own switch or being made to deliver the wooden spoon with 'the holes to take a chunk out your ass'
I want to join the Air Force reserve, can you inform me about the BMT and requirements. I would also like some advice for the push up. Please and thank up. I currently working full time and I will be attending university(online).
Bmt is designed to make you pass. I graduated the 26 of may and I had a blast. It is not as hard as people think if you want to join go for it bc you will succeed
I was just about to ask what the fuck is that on his face hahaa While in Qatar one of my guys pulled a no shave profile from the air base no questions asked, CO remote that shit up a week in 🤣
Every AFSC has a chance of getting deployed, some deploy more, some may never see a deployment it all depends on how long you stay in and what unit you’re apart of
It because Air Force is the ‘crown jewel’ of the military rn . I just swore in last week. I would say honestly if you have what it takes, walk in that office and don’t take no for an answer. 💪🏾
Don’t give up bro! Recruiters are people to, they deal with a lot and you don’t know what’s going on. Hold out. Walk in, and try to get the information you’re wanting.
@@alexsiabest2110 It’s not easy to get into the air force though, surprisingly the requirement is a 31 on the ASVAB but for any good job you’ll need 70 or better I found out from my recruiter that’s not something a lot of people can do
"right before you leave BMT" or "right before you leave for BMT"? hahaha! I'm guessing you'll have to buy a new pair of running shoes Before and After lol
@@TheWealthyWarrior_ how hard is it to get one I just started shaving my face & started breaking out really bad with acne & it’s irritating my skin I leave for basic in 2 weeks
Honestly you wont do a ton, but the running you will do is often just timed (20-30 min). Def get comfortable running before you get there, if you're behind on pushups or situps its easy to work up but running is hard to make up for.
Wow you guys are allowed to have a goatee in the Air Force? I know when I was in the army we were not allowed to have a goatee all we could have was a mustache and had to be nicely trimmed and the sides couldn't go down past the top lip 😮
Yes but they’re some that come in and can’t do a handful of push-ups.. which will give them a harder time during the PT Test that is mandatory for all of us to pass
@@dayanarodriguez3148If you have nothing keeping you (kids , spouse, etc) go active, I almost was going to go guard but I’ll be potentially shipping out next month if everything go smooth.
@tonyh1305 I mean, I understand but the bitching and complaining is on feminine level for both sides. whether you're for or against it. Just roll with whatever the rules are why complain like a women
@@jamesaustin6822 they of course have same tech school length as their AD counterparts but as far as in between their service obs and seeing their loved ones, i would say its more easier to see their loved ones compared to AD.
Tip #1 - if you have more than half a brain don't enlist. Go to college and then become an officer. Being a snuffy sucks and you are considered subhuman. Tip #2 - be prepared for homophobia if you are gay. When I was a recruit in 1992 our TI made homophobic and misogynistic comments everyday. Harassed recruits he perceived as gay. It was disgusting. Tip #3 If you do decide to go through with it know you will get almost no sleep for 6-8 weeks. This is the most tired I ever been in my life. Tip #4 Be prepared to deal with uneducated, rude people in your unit. I found at least half of them we a few fries short of a happy meal.
You cannot compare your experience from 1992, to todays military. Just because you've had a negative experience with the military, shouldn't mean push that on others. It's a great stepping stone, if you take advantage of all the resources available. Any job, can have bad apples.. in and outside of the military. That's life.
Tip #1. If you have a shaving waiver, you're not allowed to "stylize" it.
The AFI got updated awhile back ago, but thanks for your input
You’re allowed to now
I just fucking love when people open their mouths before doing research lmao

You got this man!
Only a few more days! Im rooting for you, man! Update us when you’re back!
It’s tomorrow man I wish you the best of luck you got this
Same here man I leave today for air force BMT today
How’d you do airman?

Dude, that #1... You mean they don't make you wear those shitty New Balance shoes anymore?
Yup! You can now bring your own pair lol
@@TheWealthyWarrior_wahhh?!? The BMT2000s are no more! Crazy.
This is messed up man I just bought a pair of new balances because I think they’re comfortable and I leave on the 12th 🥲

tip number 5, get familiar with the levers and knobs on your chair- also learn how to spin in it without getting dizzy 😉
Also add turning down the thermostat when it’s too hot inside

it's the Airforce dude, if you passed P.E. in highschool, you can pass BMT. Plus stress level is way down.
do they still allow the shuttle run instead of the 1.5 mile run
When you're out of BMT yes, but when I was at BMT we all had to run the 1.5 mile
What is the shuttle run, may I ask?
What is the average running in BMT?
@@raec5568HAMR search it
Not sure about this beard but this an MTI approved message...sound tips
Don’t worry, it’s DoD certified
You can have a goatee?! 😮
Are there rules for show colors?
How do you have a goatee
🙏🏽🦅🤍💙❤️
Prior service army, going Air Force, you were able to keep your personal running shoes?
Yes you are able to keep your personal running shoes
They allow goatees now?
I was just about to ask what the fuck is that on his face hahaa
While in Qatar one of my guys pulled a no shave profile from the air base no questions asked, CO remote that shit up a week in 🤣
That's what I was wondering 😮
considering your appearance would possibly shaving be part of the routine?
Shaving waivers are a thing
Can I wear my garmin running watch ?
whats with the facial hair in uniform? shaving profile?
I thought that was a filter
does everyone gets deployed? or only certain people? I am going for nursing, do they get deployed?
Every AFSC has a chance of getting deployed, some deploy more, some may never see a deployment it all depends on how long you stay in and what unit you’re apart of
Where’s your shaving waiver
My Air Force recruiter ghosted me so I’m moving over to army
It because Air Force is the ‘crown jewel’ of the military rn . I just swore in last week. I would say honestly if you have what it takes, walk in that office and don’t take no for an answer. 💪🏾

Nice shaving waiver
I mean isnt the rule 1/4 inch?
1/4" outta uniform, is still a 100% gig.
Do they allow facial hair now?
You have to get a shaving wavier currently, rumors of them lifting shaving requirements completely in the near future

@@TheWealthyWarrior_ how hard is it to get one I just started shaving my face & started breaking out really bad with acne & it’s irritating my skin I leave for basic in 2 weeks
@@kkreme4870 it’s not hard as long as you are actually showing signs of skin irritation, which you already are so you shouldn’t have a problem.

24 minutes 2-3 times a week

What is bmt
Basic military training
Another tip, it’s a vacation compared to Marine Corps Boot Camp !!!
Okay, no one cares. We know marines do more physical stuff.
And shave
How much do you run at BMT?
Not much when I went through. We do a lot of high intensity training instead
@@TheWealthyWarrior_ thanks for your response man. I leave for BMT in 14 days
Good advice but you don’t have shaving issues Da fuq
I do, that’s how you get a wavier in the first place
Doesn’t basic training get you in shape?
Yes but they’re some that come in and can’t do a handful of push-ups.. which will give them a harder time during the PT Test that is mandatory for all of us to pass
Yeah, and shave

DO NOT JOIN ACTIVE DUTY. GO GUARD OR RESERVE.

Don’t leave us hanging bro
If you’re married can’t your wife and kids come in the base during your developments?
Not during deployments, but they can live with you at 99% of bases
R u a jtac dude i have hang out with u at jrtc if its you thanks for the monster
If you can stylize to the skin, you can shave to skin. Fraudulent waiver
So Much for shaving standards.

Not necessarily. A reservist may have a long tech school

Sounds like you'd make a better housewife than servicemember
lol what your advice is dog shit and incorrect. If you bother anyone for their sexuality the airforce will kick you out
