11 days till basic..
I'm shipping to Air Force basic training in less than two weeks...
I've been waiting 9 months for this day.. I'm all gung-ho for it, but now that the clock is ticking down, I can't lie that I'm not nervous!
Anyone else been there and done that? Any words of advice?

good luck man. I actually took the AFOQT 2 weeks ago (Air Force Officer Qualification Test for those who don't know). I go in front of the selection board in March.

What are the qualifications to be able to even take that test? I'm in the air force and im in school and don't wanna join rotc so i figured i would just go the other route but i haven't looked into it yet.
Ive been to army infantry basic training but it is waaaay different than air force basic training. jhadleyh on here has been to air force basic though.
good luck with it man, just remember that any abuse the instructors give you is all mental and dont volunteer for anything ever
you have to have a 4 year degree. And they will tell you that you have to have a 3.2 gpa in college, but I don't, but told them I wanted to take the test anyway. So with that, I had to do really well on the test, which I did. So now it's just up to the interview

ah ok so im already headed in the right path....cool. Thanks for the info.
officers can suck my dick!
J/K ,make that money if you can!
I bet you want say that to their face lol. No but whats wrong with officers?
no problem. It's actually pretty tough getting in right now as an officer because of the job market. The AF met all of their recruiting quotas last year, and filled every open officer job they had. The main positions they are looking for right now are pilots and navigators believe it or not.

thanks guys, the worst thing I think is gonna be the Christmas break.. I'll only be 5 days in when the training center shuts down. So I'm pretty sure that means I'm gonna be the lowest man on the totem pole for an extra two weeks.. lol. Oh well, my tech school will be in Monteray California, I'll just keep reminding myself...
fuck i don't wanna be a pilot I am in the medical field.
actually when I was in ft stewart doing some training over the summer, i was at the pool and I said it to a Lt because he was talking shit. He went and ratted on me and got me kicked out of the pool. Their is nothing wrong with officers, I was just kidding. Make all the money you can.
how long till you graduate?
nemesis950psi 1:47 pm : but id hit a tree with a hole if i was single
my dad is a retired AF Colonel, and the one thing he has stressed over and over is to take care of your NCO's. Going in thinking you are hot shit bc you have a shiny rank on your collar will make things very difficult for you.
nemesis950psi 1:47 pm : but id hit a tree with a hole if i was single
I have 70 credit hours left to obtain before i graduate.
oh well shit. you still have a while, I'm sure there will be some jobs opened up by then. Good thing about going in in the medical field is you can sometimes start out as a captain instead of Lt.

Yeah ive also heard this. Um i cant find a Officer pay chart and my fiance wants to see the difference in pay could you direct me to the most simple one to show her.

O-1 is 2nd Lt.
0-3 is Capt.
nemesis950psi 1:47 pm : but id hit a tree with a hole if i was single
you want the reserve scale?
thanks that one was alot easier to show her.
Na if I go officer I will go full time.
no problem
nemesis950psi 1:47 pm : but id hit a tree with a hole if i was single
if you go officer, I would suggest staying 20 years. Nobody can touch the retirement pay the military pays
nemesis950psi 1:47 pm : but id hit a tree with a hole if i was single
i think its either 25 or 27 years that gives you 100% of your pay and benefits, 20 years will only get you like 50%
20 years is 75% iirc
nemesis950psi 1:47 pm : but id hit a tree with a hole if i was single
either way, the longer past 20 you stay in the better
I will prolly do 20 then call it a day. I will be 46 or 47 when i retire so that sounds pretty good to me.
yeah, and you would still be young enough to get another job too if you wanted

Well, going to Chair Force boot camp is like taking a trip to a rehab clinic.
Words of advice are as follows.
1. Do EXACTLY what they tell you to do.
2. Don't sneak Porn into Boot Camp. If your friends or parent send you some, get rid of it.
3. Do your VERY best. ESPECIALLY in your secondary school. The better you do, the better your number will be to hand pick your orders following school. Do the best, you get the best pick of everything available. Least thats how it was when I went through Boot Camp.
4. Don't meet some bimbo and get married. Chicks look for patsies fresh out of boot camp to latch on to. You will go on deployment, come home and all your shit will be gone.
The Holy Grail of information I am about to bestow upon you. So read carefully.
5. When you get a prostitute (don't say you won't, EVERYONE does) ALWAYS!!!!! and I mean ALWAYS!!!!!! do her with your boots on. Here's the reason why. In most foreign countries, unless you go to an established brothel, Hookers are in league with bad people. Yes, I know, it's hard to believe but it's true. And with that being said, if you get attacked and try to run they will sprinkle broken glass outside the door. If you have no boots on, you run through the glass.....down, robbed, beaten and maybe kidnapped and killed. But......enterprising young GI that you are because you listened to Grandpa Glides, you kept your Whore Stomping boots on and are free to kick a little ass with your jimmy swinging. Because there is NO beatdown like a beatdown given from a man with no clothes on.
6. GO PLACES!!!!!. Don't screw up like I did. My first orders were to Japan, I turned them down for orders to Florida. Now, I did see 17 different countries, banged 7 prostitutes (using the Grocery Store theory, Double Bag the product to prevent breakage) hung out with Russian fisherman, attacked by Green Peace, picked up by the African Militia at gunpoint, had our boat taken by a team of 8 Navy Seals in less than 8 minutes and taken into custody in a Presidential Gun Scare. So my orders turned out to be great. But don't mess up and take orders close to home cause of this and that. Get the fuck out and see shit man. You will remember it for the rest of your life.
7. DO NOT GET INTO TROUBLE OVERSEAS!!!!!!
8. Had to add this. You will get a class on this most likely after getting there. But do not buy a car from the local Butt Rape car lots or Motorcycle dealers that are right around base. You will get hosed. high interest rates, low quality. It won't matter much to you since they will take it out of your pay and you never see it.....but don't do it. Trust me on this cause I got my ass opened up by one of em when I first got there over a Motorcycle. It takes years for your butt to close after that one.
There you have it. Go.....have fun.....get your shit on and live it up man.
