    I’m excited to go into the Air Force, but I’ve always known I’ve wanted to be an author. I don’t want to give up on that. Still, I can’t stay where I’m at, working at food service and doing the same thing over and over and over.
    Sorry, just needed to rant. Your videos are very calming. I love how clear and concise your descriptions are. Thank you ❤

      When I did the Obstacle Course it was raining it was about 45 degrees we only had on our BDU’s with no field coats, gloves or snow cap. It was about six hours of hell. Sand in every crevasse soaking wet my face felt like it had been scraped off, when I was done it literally took me 15 minutes to unbuckle my belt because my fingers were frozen. I still have that video on VHS!
      When it gets cold I think back to that day and it is no longer too cold!
      Good job describing howBasic is and there are so many new things that you do or did that I didn’t do. My enlistment date Jan 30, 1996.

    Thanks for doing a great job detailing your experiences at basic. I went in 1988, when it was only 6 weeks. I happened on your videos when I was doing some research for my son who is looking into the Air Guard. I was curious as to the changes and if it got a little softer over the years. Your videos made me remember so many details about the experience that I had. It is such a great, life altering experience for someone to have. Best of luck with your career!!!

    Awesome video Airmen, watching your videos has opened my eyes I must say. Being in the Army and being Infantry I always had this belief that Air Force Basic was really easy and didn’t take much effort. Thank you for opening my eyes and showing me how wrong I was. Keep aiming high sister I have very high hopes for you in your Air Force career so don’t let me down. You got this sister you can take anything life throws at you so grab life by the belt and kick it in the ass and succeed beyond expectation.

    Airman Willis, what I TRULY appreciate about your vids is you don't try to make BMT something that it wasn't. The Marines have "beast week" it's called recruit training, 13 weeks worth.
    As for MREs, I think you would have hated C-Rations! Yes, I'm a way old guy, '75 - '81!

    @savanah5354 5 років тому

    If entering BMT as an e-1, can you leave as like an e-2 or something or does your rank HAVE to be determined with your recruiter beforehand? I took some college classes in high school and I was hoping that it would give me a higher rank. (Just graduated)

    • @Brittanylynnlewis
      @Brittanylynnlewis  5 років тому +1

      Your rank has to be determined with your recruiter beforehand. I believe you need 24 credit hours to enter as an E-2 but I could be wrong. A recruiter can answer that question better than I can. :)

      Cell phones are an earned luxury, usually allowed for a 5-15 min phone call on Sundays if, and only IF, your MTI(s) allows it. Work hard and do as your told, you get your phone for a call home.
      At least that's my understanding. I guess we'll find out how true that is when the time comes. 😅
