    You guys are going to have to make a decision with the incoming Trump administration. Those people lack good moral character and have zero respect for military service or ethics. Glad I am retired from military service now. Working with those people would be a huge challenge. As officers, I expect you both to remember what is important. Which is your oath. Remember the words you spoke and the document you swore to support and defend against all enemies, both foreign and DOMESTIC. The American people, both Trump voters and non Trump voters, are watching you. Do not fail us!

    People are much more capable of performing under artificial stress than we realize. It is real life stress that truly separates the real performers from the rest. OTS was just a pressure cooker when I went through and the one thing I took away with me was that anything worth having will never come easily. Some of the officer instructors were just complete jerks while others were very professional. The only enlisted guy there was the MTI who taught drill and ceremonies. Our upper class to the man and woman were living in their own little world. Most of our lower class hated them. When we became the Upper Class, we helped our Lower Class get ahead. We taught them secrets to success at OTS. The standards are set to make one fail so one can be trained. In the "real AF" (whatever that is), one must learn what it takes to pass major inspections (ORI, MEI, NSI etc.) If you don't know what those are then you are fortunate. Each day as an officer, you must accomplish and record those accomplishments. You can not be a wall flower. People must know who you are and why YOU are important to the mission. If you fly, you can not just fly, you do other things to get recognition. If you are non-rated, then success depends on how well your airmen and NCOs perform. Do things for people, not to them. Defend people, do not persecute. You may need them one day (and you will). OTS is just something one must suffer through. Remember, one day at a time is sometimes the best do we can get but tomorrow will come, one way or the other. What goes around, comes around. None of those OTS instructor or MTIs will ever have a person come back to them and say: thank you.

    Job satisfaction has always been and always will always be the prime motivation for anyone to stay in the service. The pay is horrible and the promotion system changes every time there is an overage in the enlisted or officer ranks. Then is when the lies come out and careers are ruined all in an effort to curb inflation. In all actuality, the AF is just down sizing or right sizing or what ever lie they can used to hoodwink the masses.

    Michael Quijano, has a child with a black woman. They lived overseas Clark Airforce Based and attempted to murder the child during a medical procedure while living overseas so FBI CIA using inner ear communication to murder me as a child. Now they used years of surveillance to choose what information personal details they can use to paint their target as criminal when U.S Goverment intelligence wanted to homicide the test subject/ target before internet was created. U.S intelligence FBI hackers wanted to murder a child before the internet was even created. Federal intelligence refers to the target as a N-word then isolates the victim to inflict mental triggers because they had an issue with blacks before the internet was ever created.

    In 1984 the Marine Corps used TRASH CANS for wake up calls. My bunky cried the first three days and the first morning one man jumped on line with an erection and I am sure he still has ED today (for an hour (I'm sure it was seconds) they SCREAMED "DO YOU LIKE ME" to him. We had one guy try to JUMP from the 3rd floor ladder well and the drill instructors PLOWED through everyone, snatched him by the belt and carried him like a helpless animal back inside, dropped him on the floor and turned to us and yelled, "I DIDN'T GIVE ANYONE PERMISSION TO DIE. YET!" Many dropped to their knees balling their eyes out at that point.

    I have seen perfectly good officers passed over to Captain the first time. Reason? Poor supervisors. I have seen people get picked above the zone to Major and LtCol. That pigeon holes their career. I have seen people in "Operations" (pilots, Missiles) get BTZ promotions and have no idea that Enlisted people beyond maintenance actually existed. The AF has made it so hard to get into the Officer Corp from the enlisted ranks. Nothing is automatic.

    • @airforceofficerpodcast
      @airforceofficerpodcast 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Regular Air Force (aka Active Duty) is the default but you can commission straight into the Guard or Reserve if they have a spot for you. you’ll need to contact the unit directly and ask if they have an opening and are willing to hold it for you until you have completed your training.
