They’ll give you a plastic bag to keep your loofa or whatever you use in the shower, and it’ll stay in your wall locker. Just leave the bag open so it can air dry
I know we’re supposed to take our piercings out but can we still take them on the side so we can put on at night and take out just so the holes won’t close?
You can bring it & leave it with your phone when they lock it up, but no😂 you won’t be able to use it again until you’re getting on the bus to leave BMT. But if you want it in tech school, it’s okay to bring it to basic
I honestly can’t remember now that it’s been so long, but I do mention it probably in the 1WOT or 2WOT video since we had started PT by then. At least once a week we had a run day I wanna say
Yes, your MTI will tell you what’s allowed to get mailed to you & you can write them or talk to them otp about mailing it to you. You’ll get your mailing address the day you get there. The MTIs bring you your mail
I heard that once at basic, it might be squadron based, bc when I was there that was never enforced on us. Our MTI actually showed us where we could buy it at the store. So most you could do is buy it, and they tell you you can’t use it
@@ruthartigas2595 yes everyone at the same time. Either 0500 or 0545. You can watch my 0 week of training video to see what that first day/week will look like :)
Hi Thank you for your content. Could you please say, if that is allowed, or if you met in bmt female trainees with really short hair, is it allowed to have really short hair, like 1/2 of inch in the air force?
I saw this other video where they said that cough drops were banned since they were using them as “currency” so that other people would make their beds I honestly don’t know if that’s true or not but I hope they’re not banned so that I could take some since I LOVE candy. Also I ship out Dec 13 kinda nervous. Thank you for posting this video it really helped
No, all jewelry will be taken out prior to arriving at MEPS the day you ship out. Only time you can have jewelry, is females can wear stud earrings for pictures (& maybe graduation depending on the squadron)
If I’m not mistaken you can wear a rubber band. I can’t remember, but I feel like I recall people wearing them. I know a real one you can’t, so if you want to bring a rubber one just in case you can!
Shipping out in a couple weeks. This is the most helpful video I’ve seen.
Thank you!!!
Thank you, & good luck with your journey!
I leave in two weeks, and I haven't packed anything yet... but thanks for the video. lol it inspired me to start packing!
Packing is the worst lol, but you got this, good luck at basic!
How long was your process? I’m literally in my 2nd month processing 😭
@@Its.xCrxbs it took about four months going on 5 starting when I first contacted my recruiter til now Bc I MEPS took forever to clear me from my injury 🤦🏾♀️

This is a great video! Do all the products you bring need to be in its original packaging or can you put the products is tsa travel bottles?

@@Julieschannel222 oh awesome! Thank you!!
@@Julieschannel222 Can you have full size (not travel size) hair and body products shipped to you from family while in training?
@@ameliaraab2890 yes, you’ll also have the opportunity to buy full size bottles yourself while you’re there
@@Julieschannel222 super helpful! Thank you for being so responsive!!
hi i just wanted to say that i love ur vids and also wanted to ask how’d u store the exfoliating gloves?
They’ll give you a plastic bag to keep your loofa or whatever you use in the shower, and it’ll stay in your wall locker. Just leave the bag open so it can air dry
also a video on your beast experience
Check out my 6WOT video🫶🏻
How many pack of underwear do we have to bring
Thanks for your video
Anyone shipping out Feb. 2023?
shipping out early march !
can i use a small suitcase? i leave tuesday😭
Yes, but you will have to carry it by the handle, they won’t let you drag it once you get there
I know we’re supposed to take our piercings out but can we still take them on the side so we can put on at night and take out just so the holes won’t close?
They’ll have to stay in your civilian luggage, so not likely, but you can still bring them to keep in your bag
U have a nice hair color ❤
hey question what do they give you to wear to bed? and can you do a video on every uniform you were issued?
You sleep in the PT uniform and then wake up and workout in the same one.
Any face care products allowed? 😅
Yes
I know I need to buy one of those watches but should i also bring my apple watch on the side? Would it be allowed when not in class?
You can bring it & leave it with your phone when they lock it up, but no😂 you won’t be able to use it again until you’re getting on the bus to leave BMT. But if you want it in tech school, it’s okay to bring it to basic
how much did yall run during the week?
I honestly can’t remember now that it’s been so long, but I do mention it probably in the 1WOT or 2WOT video since we had started PT by then. At least once a week we had a run day I wanna say
Are you able to get things mailed to you from home? If so where is it mailed to for you to pick up?
Yes, your MTI will tell you what’s allowed to get mailed to you & you can write them or talk to them otp about mailing it to you. You’ll get your mailing address the day you get there. The MTIs bring you your mail
Can I bring 50 ml sunscreen like 4 of them??
Yes, but it will be issued to you also
what is the brand of your shoes that you brought for bmt?
I just brought some Nike roshes I already owned
I heard another person say that tiger balm wasn’t officially allowed, that you had to have a waiver to use it. Is that true?
I heard that once at basic, it might be squadron based, bc when I was there that was never enforced on us. Our MTI actually showed us where we could buy it at the store. So most you could do is buy it, and they tell you you can’t use it
@@Julieschannel222 Thanks for your help!
Do you need to bring towels?
No, you’ll have to use the ones they provide
My recruiter is having me pack 3 pairs of jeans, is that absolutely necessary??
Yes, to include the pair you wear there. You won’t get your uniforms for a couple days, so you’ll be wearing your civilian clothes
Thank you!! I'm heading out to basic tomorrow and this was driving me bananas lol
@@ruthartigas2595 good luck!!
Thank you so much! What time do they wake us up? Do they wake everyone up at the same time?
@@ruthartigas2595 yes everyone at the same time. Either 0500 or 0545. You can watch my 0 week of training video to see what that first day/week will look like :)
I thought cough drops were banned?
They might be now, I’m not sure. They weren’t when I went in
I had a friend who shipped out august 2022, he took them and did in fact use them as "currency"
Hi
Thank you for your content. Could you please say, if that is allowed, or if you met in bmt female trainees with really short hair, is it allowed to have really short hair, like 1/2 of inch in the air force?
As a female, you can have any length of hair. If it touches or goes past your collar then you’ll have to put it up, otherwise it’s okay
Jesus, i need a girl like this when i join the air force.
Hi, can I ask what size in the duffel bag you got?
Click the link in the description box for exact measurements :)
anyone shipping out nov 22?
i am!
@@magickitty277 omg yay I hope I see you

Can you really bring tiger balm?
Yes, absolutely
I heard you have to be on profile to use it
@@jacklynndavis7376 idk if it’s changed since I went, but we didn’t need one
Wolfpack!
I saw this other video where they said that cough drops were banned since they were using them as “currency” so that other people would make their beds I honestly don’t know if that’s true or not but I hope they’re not banned so that I could take some since I LOVE candy.

Its true. They are banned.
I’m not 100% sure. You can bring them, and if they’re not allowed then you’ll just keep them in your civilian luggage
What is “BX” 😭😆
Base exchange, it’s just a store
did anyone have body piercings at bmt?
No, all jewelry will be taken out prior to arriving at MEPS the day you ship out. Only time you can have jewelry, is females can wear stud earrings for pictures (& maybe graduation depending on the squadron)
Wedding bands as well?
If I’m not mistaken you can wear a rubber band. I can’t remember, but I feel like I recall people wearing them. I know a real one you can’t, so if you want to bring a rubber one just in case you can!
@@Julieschannel222 thank you!
@@Julieschannel222what if i have my belly button pierced? do i still have to remove it even though they won’t see it?
Do you have siblings?
My daughter graduates this year then will be going she’s 17 please connect with her @g-forcejourney
What day?
