Around 15:30 you said you weren't going to talk about specifics regarding the food there? If you're willing to reply with food they had there, that'd be great. I know you didn't want to talk about ur in the video but I'd love to hear what kind of food there was at BMT
Ruby Almonte I've finally made a group for July 25th shippers! Here's the link You're invited to my new group 'Air Force BMT July 25th Shippers' on GroupMe. Click here to join: app.groupme.com/join_group/31864714/bhmmTA
336 !! we were at keesler at the same time in the same squadron but I never saw you. or actually you might have left right before I left. pretty cool your doing these videos to help others. remember 336 runs this triangle.
I recently passed my ASVAB a couple of weeks ago, and I am currently waiting to get notified on when I go to take my physical. I am super excited to be joining the Air Force. I just hope that I can make it passed BMT.
angel wiley they do the pb shot, a lot of the time they "run out" and give away the pills which is what we got. Fest stands for "field expeditionary skills training" its when you learn all of the stuff you will need for beast. Certain procedures and it ties in with some first aid stuff as well
Sk8Gnarley can you say if you're allergic to it at meps or do you need to say you're allergic when youre at basic? I know things have changed this year and many more ppl are posting videos which is great but do you think you could do a coping video like mentally and how to get around the mind games and how to set your mind?
Try to tell meps everything without disqualifying yourself, BMT wouldn't be the place to disclose that, im not sure how meps works with all of that. I will try to make a video like that too, that would be a good one for sure.
I was on utility crew, we just maintained a closet it was awesome. It was annoying making sure brushes, brooms and mops were 100% clean all the time but while everyone else is doing the details we just keep inventory and make sure our room is clean and stocked! 10/10 would recommend
Males: - 30 y/o: 1.5 Mile Run: 11:57, Push Ups: 33, Sit Ups: 42, Ab Circumference: 35" 30 + y/o: 1.5 Mile Run: 11:57, Push Ups: 27, Sit Ups: 39, Ab Circumference: 35" These aren't the actual Graduation requirements, these are the bmt requirements, you can still graduate with the regular standards - www.military.com/media/military-fitness/air-force-fitness-charts.pdf they just try to scare ya
Thanks bro! I can do the regular requirements just didn't want to get recycled , im only at 40 push-ups in one min. Lifted a big weight off my shoulders thanks again!
I never met a man I didn't like W.R. You keep it with you for the next few days while you get all of your uniforms etc. after you have everything you will wash all of your civilian clothes and pack them away again and then store everyones civilian luggage in a stack in a closet. Thanks for the comment!
No they cant unfortunately it kind of sucks, its hard for them to keep track of everything and its to easy to sneak stuff in, also you get issued enough stuff! the duffel bag ends up weighing about 50 pounds + your civilian luggage and your issued backpack and you carry all of it at the same time theres no room for anything haha just expedite that stuff to tech school.
I feel like my packing list is perfect, I used all the travel sized stuff up until we went to the bx, everyone ended up buying a duffel bag anyways because you get so much stuff so that was awesome, you dont need to bring shower shoes because they supply you, they supply with pretty much everything but this stuff just kind of helps because its the stuff your used to. bring running shoes that you will wear in tech school and only bring those shoes, also you dont need fancy civilian clothes like I brought because you wear ABUs when you travel. only alcatraz has pay phones but eventually you will be able to use them at airman's week and base lib etc.
Awesome! Appreciate the response. I leave May 23rd! Were there many older recruits? I'm going in at the young age of 30. I'm just wondering if I will be the old guy. Haha
You will definitely be one of the older people. We had a couple guys around 26 and two guys between 30-39, one actually was 39. It was good for our flight to have them!
I’m concerned about the ASVAB because I’m 24 & didn’t do any college so I’m definitely rusty when it comes to schooling & remembering things I learned. Ik the minimum score you need to be eligible for the Air Force but what is the good score they’re looking for when enlisting?
They aren't really looking for a specific score they just want to get you in. You aim for the highest score you can because the lower the score the less job selection you will have. If your read the latest "ASVAB For Dummies" you will do just fine, try your best to refresh your memory and if you go in thinking you will fail you probably will. Thank you! youll be just fine!
Hey man quick question, I know you said you do the PT test during 6th week, would you say your PT would get better or worse if you go into BMT in shape? Thanks let me know please
great work

Sk8Gnarley thank you for responding, and most definitely. I've been watching your youtubers videos lately and subscribed to your channel
Thank you I appreciate it!
WHAT, no yelling for the first 72 hours! WOW, that's all my TI's did when I went through in 1992.
I know its kind of ridiculous, getting off the bus getting yelled at was my favorite part of the experience lol
When I went 6 months ago the yelled at us the first 72 hours... maybe they changed that policy
Pyramid pushups were the bain of my existence!
I feel like they dont do to much haha

336 !! we were at keesler at the same time in the same squadron but I never saw you. or actually you might have left right before I left. pretty cool your doing these videos to help others. remember 336 runs this triangle.
Thank you! There was always so many people at Keesler so that makes sense lol
What does Charforce mean?
armida loya Chairforce is just a joke and kind of stereotype. Its because the air force has a lot of desk jobs so we sit in “chairs”.
I'm currently studying the asvab really want to go to the Air Force AIM HIGH.
lawrence N just stay driven!
Shipping November 14, 2017
Krystian Cruz thats coming up you ready? Good luck!
I’m praying I am. I’m just worried about the PT but other than that I’m excited!
Dont stress about pt, you will do it so much and you will have so much time to perfect it! Stay positive and keep praying!
Already been out of bmt for 14 months. 1A8X1 here and almost done with tech school. Sometimes I miss the fun of BMT and especially the mall bx.
JRandWRownyou damn what a job! Thats crazy congrats on that man

Yoooo, I'm in Keesler for Tech School. Knowledge ops man. 336th. What squadron you in?
We just ate dinner together lol
Oh shit I knew you looked familiar hahaha! Just so you know, Airmen Kelly saw these videos and shes been telling a lot of us about you.
Thats awesome! I have no idea who that is lol but thank you haha
Nov 12
Goodluck!
Angel Guzman I ship nov 14
how was the MRE's?
pretty good at first and not my favorite at the end, fun experience though
Sk8Gnarley yeah I bet, I'm planning on joining, I just need to graduate first and then take the ASVAB
You can take the asvab now its good for 2 years, just study study
I have a huge book I've been studying, and doing questions online, so I should almost be ready
Did you need to bring all that stuff you packed?
Look at Jesus Valdez's comment I said down there haha
Don't be a crew chief!
Don't do anything flight line related!
I recently passed my ASVAB a couple of weeks ago, and I am currently waiting to get notified on when I go to take my physical. I am super excited to be joining the Air Force. I just hope that I can make it passed BMT.
BMT is easy just follow directions and thats about it! Good job on the ASVAB!
Do they still do the PB SHOT AND what's FEST about?
angel wiley they do the pb shot, a lot of the time they "run out" and give away the pills which is what we got. Fest stands for "field expeditionary skills training" its when you learn all of the stuff you will need for beast. Certain procedures and it ties in with some first aid stuff as well
Sk8Gnarley can you say if you're allergic to it at meps or do you need to say you're allergic when youre at basic? I know things have changed this year and many more ppl are posting videos which is great but do you think you could do a coping video like mentally and how to get around the mind games and how to set your mind?

I ship October 10th! Anyone else?
Nice! Good luck out there
Hey I ship out June 12th. Questions before I leave. What was your detail?
I was on utility crew, we just maintained a closet it was awesome. It was annoying making sure brushes, brooms and mops were 100% clean all the time but while everyone else is doing the details we just keep inventory and make sure our room is clean and stocked! 10/10 would recommend
Good luck in tech school man
Thanks Seth!
Whats the final pt requirements and time limits?
Males:
- 30 y/o: 1.5 Mile Run: 11:57, Push Ups: 33, Sit Ups: 42, Ab Circumference: 35"
30 + y/o: 1.5 Mile Run: 11:57, Push Ups: 27, Sit Ups: 39, Ab Circumference: 35"
These aren't the actual Graduation requirements, these are the bmt requirements, you can still graduate with the regular standards - www.military.com/media/military-fitness/air-force-fitness-charts.pdf they just try to scare ya
Sk8Gnarley I saw something else thats alot harder somewhere and got worried. This i can already do😁
Yeah seriously its not bad lol, Texas weather is just hot!
Sk8Gnarley Heard it was humid too? normal heat ill be fine but humid will be a challenge.
Thanks bro! I can do the regular requirements just didn't want to get recycled , im only at 40 push-ups in one min. Lifted a big weight off my shoulders thanks again!
The bag/luggage/gym-bag that you take with you to Air Force BMT, after the zero night can you keep it with you or does it go to common storage?
I never met a man I didn't like W.R. You keep it with you for the next few days while you get all of your uniforms etc. after you have everything you will wash all of your civilian clothes and pack them away again and then store everyones civilian luggage in a stack in a closet. Thanks for the comment!
Yghhh I missed the videos!!!
Thank you! Means so much!
Hey bro, can the people coming at your graduation bring you stuff like your laptop, camera or any electronics stuff ?
No they cant unfortunately it kind of sucks, its hard for them to keep track of everything and its to easy to sneak stuff in, also you get issued enough stuff! the duffel bag ends up weighing about 50 pounds + your civilian luggage and your issued backpack and you carry all of it at the same time theres no room for anything haha just expedite that stuff to tech school.
I ship out July 24th!
What’s the asvab requirement for that MOS you got cyber system operations?
General 64 OR General 54 and Cyber-test 60
I ship August 28th!!
How long are you enlisted for?
I leave November 21
Good luck!
I watched your packing list video. Do you feel like you over packed or under packed for BMT?
I feel like my packing list is perfect, I used all the travel sized stuff up until we went to the bx, everyone ended up buying a duffel bag anyways because you get so much stuff so that was awesome, you dont need to bring shower shoes because they supply you, they supply with pretty much everything but this stuff just kind of helps because its the stuff your used to. bring running shoes that you will wear in tech school and only bring those shoes, also you dont need fancy civilian clothes like I brought because you wear ABUs when you travel. only alcatraz has pay phones but eventually you will be able to use them at airman's week and base lib etc.
Awesome! Appreciate the response. I leave May 23rd!

You will definitely be one of the older people. We had a couple guys around 26 and two guys between 30-39, one actually was 39. It was good for our flight to have them!
I leave May 23rd as well! :D Good Luck brother
Awesome bro! Maybe we'll be in the same flight!
