She grew up with military parents, so she understands the lifestyle of the "military brat," so to speak.

I love this. Desiree provided great information growing up in the military. Ashley, your questions allowed her to share meaningful experiences. Kudos to both of you!!
Awesome! I'm glad you love it! 😎
My Dad left the Infantry and joined the National Guard to see his family and that’s how he met my Mom because my Mom was also National Guard.
My Mom was a Staff Sergeant.
I was born at a VA Hospital but my Birth Certificate says I was born at Mather Air Force Base.
I was born in 92 the base closed down in 93 something to do with the Cold War.
I kept my Military ID as a Souvenir.
My Brother continued their legacy by joining the Army and now has four Kids.
My Sister is Air Force and had her first Child last year.
I’m kind of jealous that my Nephew was born in Japan.
You provide some really great content.
I really appreciate your interview with Desiree.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I have a similar story to her. Military brat planning on going in a few months
This is really great!!!
Thank you!!!
Thank you for this video. My daughter is in the AF and she's married to an airman and they are planning on starting a family. I think it is very hard to be a mother in the AF. I wish you could do a part II covering the topic of motherhood in the AF.
Thanks for the comment, Pete! A video on being a mother while in the Air Force - I think that's something I can make happen... 🧐 Thanks for the suggestion!
Love seeing this...you guys have my support.
Thank you! I appreciate it 😊
@@ashleynoelle I'm a African American airman so it means alot to see representation. it makes me proud to serve seeing faces like mine.
I'm shipping off to basic soon do you have any advice?
Just try to enjoy it, that's the best advice I have. It'll be challenging at times, and stressful, but it's designed to be that way. The real Air Force is much more like your typical day-to-day life, so don't be intimidated by people yelling at you or the abundance of restrictions. In hindsight, you'll have a lot of really good times with your unit and you'll probably look back on it as a fun experience overall. I made a video previously about the top ways Airmen get in trouble at bmt, so feel free to check that out. Good luck!
Growing up as a Military Child there were some good times and some rough times.
Colorado
Good Times
The good times I had in Colorado was playing in my dinosaur sandbox and blue swing set in the backyard. Also the Halloween celebration I had with my class and teachers in Dakota Valley in October 2005 just before I left for Hawaii. I have pictures of me in a witches costume. I also made a glass turtle and frog in art class in 1st and 2nd grade. I also went to the Denver zoo when i was in 2nd grade. I also enjoyed Friday Afternoon Club with my class in 2nd grade every Friday before I went home from school for the weekend as well playing Starfall and Keybo in Miss Chapmans room whenever I did not have class work in Miss Hales classroom who was my 2nd grade teacher and I would sit in bean bags. I also liked the purple couch that the school had at the time and I was sitting on it a lot. I also went to an arcade for one of my friends birthdays from school. I also went to the Butterfly Pavilion too with my school. I also enjoyed reading Henry and Mudge in 1st grade and Froggy in 2nd grade and Lyle the Crocodile in 3rd grade in school. I also enjoyed with playing with toys in Kindergarten. I also liked my Hawaii themed party on my last day of school when I was leaving for Hawaii.
I also had fun playing with Ryan and Emma who were Shawns kids who was a friend of my dad. Another person that my dad knew was Ken and he would see me ride my trike when I was little and we have the same birthday together in fact he came out to Maryland one time some years ago and I got to see him.
I also enjoyed going to the Aurora Mall and riding the carousel and going to Park Meadows mall with my Mother one time and Cherry Creek mall and play at the play are that used to be breakfast food back in the day. I also like Chuckie E Cheese and Mcdonald and I played in the playland a lot unless if I was sick with something. I also would play at the Orange Park and this park that reassembled a log cabin. What was nice about this park was that I would walk to this park from my house. I also enjoyed the Trails Recreation Center and swimming the pool there and I did that once with the girls scouts I was a brief member of this organization.
I also would have gluten free treats in Colorado whenever someone one in school had a birthday or there was a celebration. I had gluten free orange cake for my 4th birthday. I also would go to Dances parties at a hotel for the military and I would play with other kids while my parents danced back in the day and this was how I met my friend Nadia. I also went camping for my 8th birthday with my parents and Dog Koda and got angel and devil socks for my birthday. I also celebrated my friends Phoniex birthday with him one year I have a picture of me at his party.
Rough Times
At school one time I ended up on the wall for recess for 10 minutes. One day in 2nd grade a girl named Asia asked me to skip class with her to go to my Chapmans room so I went with her and I did get into a little trouble when I did this. One time I even walked around the whole school by myself I can not remember if it was during class time but I took off and I got in huge trouble for that.
Like moving to Colorado to Hawaii was rough for me when I had to switch schools. I was in 3rd grade at the time of the move and I was in the middle of a school year.
One time I took too long to get out of the bath one night at my house and My mother counted to 5 and I did not listen to her and she got mad. One time when I was younger i walked around the house without my clothes and I used the bathroom all over the house and my mother was so mad at me. One time I also had to stay home from swimming because my room was too messy in the house.
I was also offered food from stranger in the Orange park one time and I shook my head no because they had Cheetos which I could not eat at that time because they had gluten in them and I then ran over to my mom and in the car when we left the park she told me you did the right thing.
I also had fear a water slides so I would ride the blue and green water slide with my dad at the Trails center.
Also my dog Koda was mean to me a lot. He would knock me down. He even got into my soup while I was upstairs doing something and when I came downstairs he some how got himself on to the chair of our dining table and began eating my soup.
so yeah
Hawaii
Good times
The good times I had in Hawaii was playing Tag games in my house and having potlucks For thanksgiving and Christmas in 2008 with my neighbors and riding bikes with my friend Bethany. I also like playing play dough and my friend Bethany did too at the time and celebrating her 5th birthday with her in November 2008 and having dinner with her one night in June 2009 just before I left for Maryland as well as playing with Gabby and playing with her in her house. I also did a race with the kids on the court that I lived on with my parents. I also celebrated Valentines day 2009 with neighbor and it was my final celebration with them.

My dad also would play Lord of rings online a lot with him as well as watching family guy with Justin and this became a habit for him many years and he would play games all night a lot when he was younger thanks goodness he does not do that anymore.
I also enjoyed going to the Ala Mona Center. I would go there for the Disney Store sometimes as well as the Build a bear workshop. I also went into Jungle fun once or twice. I also would go to Sears if my dad needed something for the house. I also went to Macaroni Grill there for a good bye party for one of my dads coworkers who was leaving for Texas at the time.
Also one time for Valentines day in 2007 my mother had won a gift basket at the Commisary after I had told her to enter the drawing for it.

What is the weight requirements for a 33 male, 5'9.
For Air Force, there isn’t a particular weight requirement. It’s more about overall physical fitness. You can see the fitness test requirements here www.afpc.af.mil/Portals/70/documents/FITNESS/5%20Year%20Chart%20Scoring%20Including%20Optional%20Component%20Standards%20-%2020211111%200219.pdf?ver=5t5V-6NAFFYCQQuhB05ZTw%3d%3d. You’ll need to pass the cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness portions. You have to have at least a 75 overall, and you can’t fail any individual portion.
