@@sorawisdom6516 I was enlisted from 1981-1987 Amn to SSgt - then had a break in service time - college & graduate school - civilian job - returned as an officer in 2004 retiring summer 2020.

Air Force: You matter, no matter the rank Also Air Force: You can't park here unless you're a chief Also Air Force: You're just an A1C, where's your supervisor Let's be real, all low tier enlisted gets treated like a 12 year old across all branch. But hey that's just the 'culture' right?
It is the culture, you learn to live with it, you are treated like you're worthless is BMT so at least it's not the same in tech school and when you're operational.
Plus, if you really want to not be treated like a 12 year old in any branch, just make sure you're following orders, doing everything correctly and almost perfect and even help and do more than just what you're required to do
Joseph Choi yeah but who crews them? who does maintenance on them? who loads the weapons systems, cargo, and fuel onto the them? oh that’s right, it’s enlistedmen.
Excellent video from an old retired USAF Master Sergeant. From working on F-105s in Kansas to loading bombs on Diamond Lil one of many a BUff at Utapao during Line Backer II. Some didn't come home those days, some came back full of holes. That hot flightline at Homestead and the Phantom II, Ready Eagle to Bitburg Germany and many war games and Combat Turns, to Seymour Johnson and humid days and freezing nights. Long flights to Ramstein on Crested Cap and Able Archer 83 where we came so close. The desert of Tucson loading 30mm on the Hog. I miss the camaraderie a lot of times. The Air Force gets in your blood and all those memories you made Aim High Airman.

So for the trolls.... the single thing I see people get wrong in their attitude when they come into the Air Force is be entitled to all the glory and glamour that you “believed” was there and yours to have. In reality you raised your right hand and signed the dotted line to SERVE! Many loose sight of that and believe when they are asked to do what they believe are menial tasks that the Air Force is less than what they expected and has somehow insulted their perceived high standing. What the man was trying to say about leading yourself is to remember what your ultimate purpose in the Air Force is to do and do it no matter what it is with quality and a good attitude. To not allow adversity or poor leaders to daunt /deter you from the service you took an oath to perform. “Lead yourself” means exactly that. Handle your responsibilities with an intensity that doesn’t allow the adversities to detract from accomplish the mission. Learn to get over yourself and make a difference. If you lead yourself in small tasks well, you will lead others well in greater more complex tasks. It’s the way it is whether you like it or not.
thats a nice thought up until you got friends who kill themselves because how disgusting the leaderships in this service is. now tie it to this president and everything else goin on...
@@philparnell757 yeah, this is an old post of mine and those days are quite gone for me too. I am disgusted with the state of leadership these days too.
"you aren't working at this place called the Air Force while you get your degree" That's exactly what I'm doing tho...I'm doing it to become a pilot for the USAF ...
25 years and counting as an enlisted member. I want to join the USAF this dude is talking about....because it's not the one I am in. The USAF is about officers first and foremost. If you can accept that basic fact, your career might go well.
Wish I would have seen something like this when I was in (Jun 63-dec 66, Nam). Never felt like I was really military till I volunteered for Flare drops out of DaNang. This is a great video, maybe if i had seen this then, I may have stayed in and done better.
I'm a bit surprised at the number of negative comments. At least for me it was a privilege to serve my country, and one of the more honorable things I have done with my life. Following a little over 3 1/2 years (received an early out, due less than 6 months remaining on initial enlistment upon returning from Vietnam), the training and experience provided by OUR United States Air Force provided me the opportunity for a 35 year career with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

It's in our DNA to lead and it stays there when we hang up those stripes for the last time. As a retired Airman, it's easy to spot another because we now hold ourselves to higher standards than our civilian counterparts and it shows. Fifteen years ago, I left behind the wonders of what the Air Force what've been like for myself and my family. Thanks to social media, I get to connect with some of those Airmen I led to see them now retired, CMSgt's, and running companies of their own. They like I still appreciate "what the Air Force has done for me." Good luck to those who chose this wonderful career choice, and thanks to all who serve this great nation 🇺🇲

Ask your recruiter what his/her AFSC is and remember, their is a reason they would rather be a recruiter. Favorite recruiter line "It's not a bad job, it's what you make it."
For some people, the reason is that they made NCO and encouraging others got into their blood. By your logic, there wouldn't be any 1st shirts either. You don't have to be so cynical.

I wish sometimes I would have joined the Airforce. I just got out last year as a 13B in thr Army. I tell you guys its been a privilege working with the Airforce. They have way better gear than the Army. It's hard to switch over to a new branch though because the only branch with my MOS is the Marines. Bummed out but its ok.

Currently shipping out second week of October. Mos-Securiy forces like my father before me. We took an oath and signed a blank check payable to up to and including our lives for the air force and our freedom. This journey for the jedt 6 years of my life will be well worth. Having a 6 month old daughter to step away from for times on deployment or duty stations will be tough but it's all worth it. AIM HIGH. 🇺🇸💯
Oct is a good time to be at Lackland it's not as hot. I was there 24 Oct 72 then for 8 weeks. BMT was just 6 weeks but I stayed 2 more weeks waiting for opening at tech school.
All I want to ask is where is the army’s version.... nothing fake or over the top here just straight honesty... maybe the army could learn a thing or two
While you are still too young to enlist into the Air Force, it is never too early to start preparing. There are a few things you can do now to prepare for once you reach the require age. First study hard and graduate from high school. Get the best grades you can in all subjects especially English, Math and Science. This will help you improve your score on the ASVAB test which is required for enlistment. Say no to drugs and get an early start on physical conditioning are important steps in the right direction. And stay out of trouble. Law violations can delay and in some cases will disqualify you from joining the Air Force and taking advantage of the opportunities available. Starting early and being prepared are your best shot. Stay in contact with your Guidance Counselor and maybe we will see you in a few years. Don Air Force and Space Force Recruiting Service
Hey! someone said enlisted is the lowest rank? For me, it doesn't matter whether it is a non-commissioned officer or enlisted, the important thing is the army
My dad was security forces and I was born and raised airforce but I'm getting to the age and I cant decide between going army and trying to become a nightstalker or going airforce and either trying for pararescue or security forces can yall help me or give me tips
I’m in security forces and love it, all through I wish I went TACP or PJ. If you decide to chose Security Forces and it isn’t your forte, you have the opportunity to retrain into a different career later in your enlistment. If you have questions feel free to ask me!
I am going to work on joining. Rn, I'm a High School freshman. I'm 2 years, I can apply, and that's what I'll do. I won't be there for 18 mo. tho. I will be a missionary for my religion for that time, then I'll be in the USAF with all my might.
Hopefully, I be able to join in a year or so. Need to be off meds from a possible misdiagnosis of ADHD. It has always been my dream to Aim High! #USAIRMAN IN THE WORKS 😎
Garland, unfortunately, this is a (potentially) medically disqualifying condition. If you have been diagnosed by a doctor as having ADD/ADHD, you must meet the following requirements in order to apply: - Must be off medication for a minimum of 15 months. (You must be removed off of the medication by a doctor and it is written in your medical records. An applicant cannot just stop taking prescribed medications on their own.) - You must have a current note from primary care provider validating stable status with condition, must summarize the diagnosis, history of treatment, and should rule out any residual of ADD/ADHD - Show evidence of successful academic and work endeavors while off medication - Show evidence that applicant was not provided classroom aids such as private study area, special tutors, additional time to complete assignments or tests. Candidates who do not meet the standard of never having taken more than a single daily dosage of medication or not having been prescribed medication for their condition for more than 24 cumulative months after the age of 14 will be processed for a waiver if they have demonstrated at least 15 months of performance stability (academic or vocational) off medication. Waiver approval is not guaranteed. Please contact an Air Force recruiter for more details. Ray U.S. Air Force and Space Force Recruiting
@@USAirForceRecruiting, when did this change? I have ADD and I served from '94 to '98. No one ever required any kind of documentation regarding treatment or anything else relating to my condition during the enlistment process or afterward.
A C they aren’t allowed to shoot? Do you know what your talking about lol... you know airmen carry m4 in bagram right? And practice rifle drills in BMT
How to become a military pilot? After graduation, will I have an intermediate or higher education? I understand that I must have a PPL to enter the Air Force? Do I need to additionally have secondary or higher education for admission or is high school enough? Until how old can you become a military pilot and start studying to be a military pilot?
FlightAirline Pilot, To be eligible to apply for Officer Training School (OTS)/Pilot, one must be a US citizen, be within 365 days of graduating or have ANY baccalaureate degree, you must have earned a minimum GPA of 2.5 or higher to be eligible to apply. Rated (flying Careers) must be able to complete the selection process and attend training prior to age 33 (applications must be submitted to the Selection Board prior to age 32). The maximum age for those interested in applying as a Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) pilot is prior to age 40.

I'm currently getting into shape so I can join the alaska air guard. I would love to be a pj someday. 🤞🤞🤞
Watch the movie "The Last Full Measure".
Brave and honest air force officers of America ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Currently shipping out second week of October. Mos-Securiy forces like my father before me. We took an oath and signed a blank check payable to up to and including our lives for the air force and our freedom. This journey for the jedt 6 years of my life will be well worth. Having a 6 month old daughter to step away from for times on deployment or duty stations will be tough but it's all worth it. AIM HIGH. 🇺🇸💯
Oct is a good time to be at Lackland
it's not as hot. I was there 24 Oct 72 then for 8 weeks. BMT was just 6 weeks but I stayed 2 more weeks waiting for opening at tech school.
Don't know who tells civilians that our job is like the outside.
I think without saying it, the narrator was trying to say thats what the Army, Navy, and Marines say about the Air Force to civilians.
MPF, Finance, and all the other jobs that have airmen working with civilians
The recruiters tell civilians that. Airmen tell civilians that
Your job is comfy and easy just like the civilians 🤣🤣
Probably recruiters
I can’t wait to enlist. I’m so afraid that I won’t make the cut. I talk to a recruiter sometime in the next 2 weeks.
Hard to enjoy the USAF when 'service before self' is your leaderships go-to response to all your problems
I can't even join because I'm allergic to peanuts.
Hulu Cat lie
Pretty sure people have lied about being mentally retarded. Trust me, you'll be fine
how bad is it and how old are you?
willie417 I’m 19 and am supposed to be severely allergic but I have never had to use my epi pens
I know plenty of Airmen with peanut allergies. Try again!
All I want to ask is where is the army’s version.... nothing fake or over the top here just straight honesty... maybe the army could learn a thing or two
Z Thrawn good question.
I hear you. Stay safe.
🚄
I am a twelve year old kid and this was very inspirational and I will want to join the Air Force in the future
While you are still too young to enlist into the Air Force, it is never too early to start preparing. There are a few things you can do now to prepare for once you reach the require age. First study hard and graduate from high school. Get the best grades you can in all subjects especially English, Math and Science. This will help you improve your score on the ASVAB test which is required for enlistment. Say no to drugs and get an early start on physical conditioning are important steps in the right direction. And stay out of trouble. Law violations can delay and in some cases will disqualify you from joining the Air Force and taking advantage of the opportunities available. Starting early and being prepared are your best shot. Stay in contact with your Guidance Counselor and maybe we will see you in a few years.

Hey! someone said enlisted is the lowest rank? For me, it doesn't matter whether it is a non-commissioned officer or enlisted, the important thing is the army
What up m🎉 American eagles and I have a safe journey and think for everything you did for us bein you are my hero to get r done
My dad was security forces and I was born and raised airforce but I'm getting to the age and I cant decide between going army and trying to become a nightstalker or going airforce and either trying for pararescue or security forces can yall help me or give me tips
skrapcella hows was your dad life in security froces
@@Ikefilmzz he was almost always gone
I’m in security forces and love it, all through I wish I went TACP or PJ. If you decide to chose Security Forces and it isn’t your forte, you have the opportunity to retrain into a different career later in your enlistment. If you have questions feel free to ask me!
@@BBA-Csavv thank you for your service. And what would I have to do to become a k9 handler
Just go where you feel at home. You can do any job. But find the one you can excel at.
Wow!!! Nice video now show us how you treat maintenance and who you tricked into ammo 😂
IYAAYAS!
I am going to work on joining. Rn, I'm a High School freshman. I'm 2 years, I can apply, and that's what I'll do. I won't be there for 18 mo. tho. I will be a missionary for my religion for that time, then I'll be in the USAF with all my might.
[ A +] Good job. Good luck
Hey army, this is how you make an add
I know it sounds crazy but after six years of retirement I'd gladly go back in for a couple of years to fill a needed position.
Hopefully, I be able to join in a year or so. Need to be off meds from a possible misdiagnosis of ADHD. It has always been my dream to Aim High! #USAIRMAN IN THE WORKS 😎
Garland, unfortunately, this is a (potentially) medically disqualifying condition. If you have been diagnosed by a doctor as having ADD/ADHD, you must meet the following requirements in order to apply:
- Must be off medication for a minimum of 15 months. (You must be removed off of the medication by a doctor and it is written in your medical records. An applicant cannot just stop taking prescribed medications on their own.)
- You must have a current note from primary care provider validating stable status with condition, must summarize the diagnosis, history of treatment, and should rule out any residual of ADD/ADHD
- Show evidence of successful academic and work endeavors while off medication
- Show evidence that applicant was not provided classroom aids such as private study area, special tutors, additional time to complete assignments or tests.
Candidates who do not meet the standard of never having taken more than a single daily dosage of medication or not having been prescribed medication for their condition for more than 24 cumulative months after the age of 14 will be processed for a waiver if they have demonstrated at least 15 months of performance stability (academic or vocational) off medication. Waiver approval is not guaranteed. Please contact an Air Force recruiter for more details.

@@USAirForceRecruiting, when did this change? I have ADD and I served from '94 to '98. No one ever required any kind of documentation regarding treatment or anything else relating to my condition during the enlistment process or afterward.

Hello dear
How are you?
See you in November 💯
Houston Lambert nov 19?
A C you didn’t even spell weak right 😂😩
A C why make yourself purposely look stupid on the internet? Every branch is challenging in their own way.
A C they aren’t allowed to shoot? Do you know what your talking about lol... you know airmen carry m4 in bagram right? And practice rifle drills in BMT
How to become a military pilot? After graduation, will I have an intermediate or higher education? I understand that I must have a PPL to enter the Air Force? Do I need to additionally have secondary or higher education for admission or is high school enough? Until how old can you become a military pilot and start studying to be a military pilot?
FlightAirline Pilot, To be eligible to apply for Officer Training School (OTS)/Pilot, one must be a US citizen, be within 365 days of graduating or have ANY baccalaureate degree, you must have earned a minimum GPA of 2.5 or higher to be eligible to apply.
Rated (flying Careers) must be able to complete the selection process and attend training prior to age 33 (applications must be submitted to the Selection Board prior to age 32). The maximum age for those interested in applying as a Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) pilot is prior to age 40.
Yes, having a Private Pilot’s License will raise the chances of getting a pilot’s slot, but it is not required.

@@USAirForceRecruiting Can a civil aviation pilot or military pilot / engineer / cosmonaut work in parallel as a test pilot? Or, on the contrary, is a civil aviation pilot sometimes a military pilot, or an astronaut to combine other work? Thanks if you answer! There is no such thing in Russia.
@@flightpilotgroup3062 USAF test pilots are chosen from the pilots who have the most experience, and typically engineering degrees. Civilan test pilots are usually hired from former military ranks.
@@WootTootZoot Is there a part-time schedule or on-call, reserve? Does have part-time work? How long is it given? Can a novice part-time? and is it possible for a novice pilot to fly on a part-time basis? Thank you
Does the air force SF get deployed? Boring to just guard the bases at home.
You see once it was service before self now it's self before service!
To all the veterans, and retired out there question, am I the only one that wish I were going back?
From a Combat Vet Of The FMF ...
That was very well done ...MOTO
From former USAF, much respect to the Marines.
Soon❤️
Great video! Sometimes a legacy can be only created by yourself with the air force help.
Ready, Steady.
Funny how at the end there was an army Apache!
Jeremie Valle yeah but the dudes standing in the foreground were Air Force, Air Force guys frequently work with other services airframes.
Salute to my fellow airmen
Even this is better than Emma and her two moms

I got to bed every night with my blues jacket hanging over my head. Greatest achievement I've ever made in my life that nobody believed that I could, not even my family. Miss serving with the finest men and women that I've came across in my entire life.
I know what you mean, if I could go back I'll be on my way tomorrow
Aim High Airman!
I have a question what is the orange packages for when u go to the Air Force for bmt training on the first day
Desirae Jefferson I never got an orange package when I went to bmt. I left July of last year so maybe it changed but we were only given a backpack
Frosty thanks so much I thought they was gone need ur birthdate and ur security number and all that thanks for your support 💕
Desirae Jefferson take your social security card with you. I didnt have mine so it isnt a huge deal, but before you leave there should be a checklist of everything you should bring. Pretty sure drivers license and social security card are things that are on that list
Desirae Jefferson and no problem 👍
Frosty thanks so much I needed that cause when I go am need that ❤️
I ship out to BMT tomorrow. I cannot wait to earn the title of officially becoming an Airman. #aimhigh 🇺🇸
GOOD FOR YOU! Ignore these idiots talking a bunch of crap about what they don't know, the Air Force is great, I loved it wish I could go back, veteran United States Air Force
Dont pay attention to the idiots who say the ****they say, I want to go Pararescue. and I'm 11. Aim high and keep up the good work. Do what you do best be a proud soldier of the USAF. And love to all the other soldiers who are serving and who have served
@@willisix2554 why can't you?
@@kermly87 age, we got the youngsters like you to pick up where I left off hahaha..
@@willisix2554 Well according to most youngsters I am considered 👵 😆 but that will not stop me from joining the USAF.
2 and a half years of working out and reviewing math and sciences I’ve finally decided which branch to join. Daamn this is a good video.
But I’m gonna join the Marines lmao gtfooo
You're gonna regret that bruh
Yeah, joining the marines makes you look tougher but trust me, I've talked to veterans from all other branches, they all told me to join Air Force
Most people go in for the uniform and cos they think they’re going to be tougher, but I did my research my man so I’ll find it out myself. 2 and a half years you’d think I would go to airforce cos it’s easy or the army cos there’s more money.
@@vcrazy_diamond only because it's easy but someone that's actually brave needs to do the tough jobs don't be a hater because u can't be part of the nation's pride
@@IdentifyAsTheyDontKnowMeSon well good luck then. Oorah
