2nd Lt

Congratulations Blade you are making a wise choice the Air Force is a great way of life.  I've been in the Air Force for almost a year now and its been one of the best years of my life.  You are going to meet some people in the military that are going to be flat out asses but don't let that get you down because there's always ten nice people for every ass hole, there will always be someone there to help yeah when you really need it in the Air Force were like a big family.  Hears the only three things you need to know about BMT at Lackland. 
1.) Don't speak in less asked a question by a “TI”  an then you answer back with “Sir trainee (so in so) reports as ordered” YES sir, NO sir, YES mama, NO mama...
2.)  “Don't drawl attention to your self” by doing something dumb like leavening water in your canteen at night wile you are sleeping because someone will give you a free bath with some really cold water wile your sleeping.
3.)  Eat soft foods in the chow hall because your not going to get very long to eat (5min if your lucky).

Hears some bad news for yeah we do exercise a lot in basis so start doing push ups now and start going out running two miles every day  they want to know how far they can push you before you brake an believe me you  an your body can put up with a lot of shit.  My flight did 800 push ups one day because the “TI” was trying to get the point across that he was going to be our O mighty God for the next six weeks of our life.  BMT isn't hard so keep your chin up and an just let the BS go in one ear an out the other.   

As for jobs sine up for one at MEPS or you will get the jobs that no one else wanted if you go in open general.  Get everything in writing an ask as many questions as you can when you go meet with the job counselor at MEPS ask about bones an what's the wash out rate of the Tec school an how long it is.  I went to Tec school in Pensacola, FL an had a blast it was great but you cant play around an not study the Air Force is known for having the smartest military members an there's a reason for that, our jobs are so high Tec that is not even funny.  My job is Aircraft Structural Maintenance an I have so much responsibility word cant even describe it, I am what makes that aircraft fly with out me the aircraft are paper weights.  I live in the dorms on base so if you want I can take a pic of my room so you can see what one of the dorm rooms look like, an yes the air force does have a higher livening standard than the rest of the military meaning we got nice rooms an every thing else.  If you have any questions fell free to ask me I wont feed you any BS I know everything your going to need to know to make it throe Basic.  P.S. I build aircraft I SUCK AT SPELLING!!!!!!
