      @@rudy9607 tech school was a breeze man! I had a few prior enlisted in my class, staff and tech sergeants retraining. I think it’s a lot better for you guys because you don’t have to deal with all the rules we have to deal with as nps coming straight out of bmt, living in the dorms, forming up for chow, stuff like that. The classroom stuff is mainly what you have to worry ab, which isn’t bad at all

    My biggest piece of advice for new Airman or anyone joining the military would be to have the meaning and purpose as to why you’re joining solidified. If you don’t have those two fundamentals set in stone for yourself you’ll find yourself lost more often than not.
    Make the most out of every situation and don’t let yourself become isolated from everything around you. Make new friends and build connections. Don’t give up on any dreams you have and never let opportunities pass you.
    Aim High 🙌

    Looks like Wingnuts to me🤣I did Army basic training there in 1980, & was permanent party there bro, 1984-1987! I loved the place back then & know it's changed a whole lot since. Looked like Specker Barracks back there to me, I spent about 1 year there too. Good video too by the way. SGT R. Hell

    I went to Basic Training and AIT at Fort Leonard Wood in 97. When I was in AIT we share some of our training with the Marines and Air Force. The Army and Marines ruck march to and from our training area. We saw the Air Force pulling up and getting out of an Air Conditioned Bus. That moment I said to myself Why in the Hell did I join the Army...hehehe!

    I am joining air force this year but I am a bit nervous and shy because I am a Filipino and I was in US now for 3 years. I have a 4 year college degree. I don't know if I can socialize like you do because I am an introvert maybe if that's the word because i never leave my computer I only talk in discord with my friends haha. And also I am scared because what if they make fun of my accent. I am currently working out and reviewing for ASVAB now. I hope I will meet some good people out there. Thank you for your service Mr joe and for the nice videos! I kept watching you because you're the one I saw updating everything in the airforce right now.
