I think its funny how every service academy always tells the cadets that they are the top and most prestigious service academy and that no other academy comes close
Minimegamovies what kind of Nonner are you? What are they supposed to say? “The Air Force Academy is okay, but the others are good too.” It’s called inter service rivalry, which is competitive, and competition breeds excellence.
Now, on a more serious note, As I watch the Cadets addressing the student, it occurred to me that if you look back at Y/T vids of the 1st. day at the USAF in 2011, the cadets doing the barking were the basic cadets who were sitting in those buses.
I chose the AFROTC route in college, still loving it. I went to Field Training this past summer. This was posted the day after I left for Field Training. Oh boy, brings back so many memories on the bus on TD 0.
I went the AFROTC route to. Did my field training at Tyndall AFB. The next year I was given the privilege to be a CTO and that was the most fun ever. We were much harsher and stringent then these Academy Rats. Good luck in obtaining your commission cadet and stay safe.
too funny - I remember our bus driving up to the "Bring Me Men" ramp and the cadre jumped on the bus and the party began. Walking the strips on the terrazzo - a lot of memories. Thanks.
+ink layer , walking? There was no walking for the class of '94. Just running the marble strips, in blues with our "terrazo tennis" . The only exception was right after meals. Also, unlike these more modern videos of life at USAFA, we couldn't carry our book bags on our shoulders either. Back in the brown shoe days...... :-)
7 basic responses: 1. Yes, sir. 2. No, sir. 3. No excuse, sir. 4. Sir, I do not understand. 5. Sir, I do not know. 6. Sir, may I make a statement? 7. Sir, may I ask a question?
haha, I'm sorry my voice isn't to your liking, and no I haven't made any decisions that impacted someone's life, but lets face it, I'm just a college student right now. Many cadets do go on to make choices that someone's life depends on.
Well I think you did a good job. I worked at the cadet area during the in-processing for the class of 2014. It was really awkward hearing all the yelling and walking down the hall when they were forced to line up and wait and all they had to say Good Afternoon ma'am. Considering I was 18 at the time and had only been called ma'am back in ROTC.
I was on that bus; you did your job in making me anxious well enough. You were great. Don't listen to douchebags like sere0321. They'll never understand the situation until they've been put in it.
Sean Smith Anxious? And what situation don't I understand? Being on a bus with some guy yelling at you? Not knowing what you got yourself into? My bus ride was 15 years ago pumpkin and it was to a Recruit Depot not an Academy.You have all missed the war enjoy accomplishing nothing but graduating college. And also, using your real name while you talk shit on youtube? I don't live that far away from you turds, if you sit down and talk about this.
Damn, as an enlisted, if I were to do the lead program, I'm very sure I would find their yelling more annoying than anything. I wouldn't talk back, I would comply, but I would get pretty pissed when they're yelling at me for not knowing something they mentioned once a few minutes ago. Even MTIs aren't that ridiculous, they make sure the rule is known, then they enforce it. Enforcing a rule without making sure it is known, I.E. yelling when someone doesn't know all the basic responses 2 minutes after it was mentioned once and not giving them the chance to let it sink in their heads is a sign of bad leadership. I know they're only following their predecessors example, but shock and awe isn't a good way to make sure something is known.
At that point, it’s mostly meant to just shock them, get them used to the military, and see if they have what it takes, not necessarily just to teach them
That might explain why Air Force Academy students miss out on the latest juicy gossip!! Could you imagine having your hair done by Lt. Adrian, or Capt. Ramone??;o)
Could you imagine the discussions at the Pentagon?? "General, the stakes are high and we don't have much time. As of 05:56hrs. GMT, the moon entered the fourth house and Saturn is rising. Venus and Mars will be chasing each other around the sky on Friday, Jupiter will exit the house of Sagittarius at precisely 10:47 hrs. GMT If we don't attack within the next 48hrs. the cusp of Mars will eclipse Venus, and then, we'll REALLY be screwed!!"
I was hoping to become a space cadet for NASA some day, but then I found that the Air Force Academy doesn't even offer a degree program in Astrology!! As far as listening to that young lady screeching?? I get plenty of that from my wife!!
I went through navy boot and I've seen videos from all the other branches boots and service academies. Something about the air force people just annoys the fuck out of me.
Cosmology?? You mean the Air Force Academy teaches students to be hair stylists?? Oh, yeah!! @ 2:02: Look at the 'doo that guy's getting. Some kind of Mowhawk?? @ 2:20: This young lady must have had her hair done by a student who was just starting out.
world's greatest air and space force? uhhhh no. That belongs to the Navy. And 'THE' service academy? Get out of here.....they're all challenging and have their pros and cons. knocking other service academies goes nowhere
I think its funny how every service academy always tells the cadets that they are the top and most prestigious service academy and that no other academy comes close
Rose dowling The grammar skills are astounding
Minimegamovies what kind of Nonner are you? What are they supposed to say? “The Air Force Academy is okay, but the others are good too.” It’s called inter service rivalry, which is competitive, and competition breeds excellence.
Yesterday, these same cadets stood on Falcon field with one major difference, a bar on their shoulders. Congratulations to the class of 2017!
So intense and intimidating, yet I still hope to be on that bus when my time comes.

Best of luck in your career.
Me too. I remember the MTI coming on the bus, Scared the shit out of me. They make cadets look silly.
I went the AFROTC route to. Did my field training at Tyndall AFB. The next year I was given the privilege to be a CTO and that was the most fun ever. We were much harsher and stringent then these Academy Rats. Good luck in obtaining your commission cadet and stay safe.
+masterjedi89 true, but then again: they really like to make this place look like a summer camp.
Im going to field training next summer, im in my freshman year of rotc
class of 2019 here i come!
too funny - I remember our bus driving up to the "Bring Me Men" ramp and the cadre jumped on the bus and the party began. Walking the strips on the terrazzo - a lot of memories. Thanks.
+ink layer Glad that you enjoyed it. :-)

You're right - running the strips.
This about sums up why I chose to do ROTC instead of going to the AFA.
Nathan Savage cuz your afraid of indoc?
your crazy man
your racist man
cuz your talking shit about me
im sorry i should not have brough race into this i am sorry about that.......
I might go here after doing my undergrad, but I'd honestly laugh the fuck out loud.
That is one young Drill Instructor.
Talk about fucking inspirational. Nice power trip.
Glad that you made it. How'd you hold up for the Acceptance Parade?
Well this precious.
"Oh, I think I just fucked up by coming here."
7 basic responses:
1. Yes, sir.
2. No, sir.
3. No excuse, sir.
4. Sir, I do not understand.
5. Sir, I do not know.
6. Sir, may I make a statement?
7. Sir, may I ask a question?
i would probably be smirking at the fact that...the speech the female cadet gave was similar to a recent class...I hope they make it :)
cosmology is the study of the universe through physics,astronomy, and mathematics. Cosmo is the prefix of stars,universe.
Even after seeing this I still wanna be on that bus.
They get there head shaved a helluva lot nicer than enlisted basic training.
gosh....my nephew will be the next batch class of 2018...hope he is doing well n hope there is a facilities and food for muslim ..
i mean halal food...:)
I will be on that bus one day.
Is it because we always remember it as being terrifying? Or is it truly getting weaker?
I wish they inspired me on the bus to Army BCT. As soon as we got off the bus they told us we fucked up and probably aren't gonna make it.
Abel Alvarez lol
lol, dang, that's me.
I guess the Air Force doesn't issue bass for your voice?
And when was the last time you made a decision that someones life depended on?
haha, I'm sorry my voice isn't to your liking, and no I haven't made any decisions that impacted someone's life, but lets face it, I'm just a college student right now. Many cadets do go on to make choices that someone's life depends on.

any tips into getting into the academy?
0:27 "WHAT ARE YOU LOOKIN AT BASIC?"
So, who needs a bus?? Hell, I've been listening to my wife for almost 30 years!!

did he mean astronomy, or cosmology.
dont you mean astronomy?
Civil air patrol encampment seems more harsh than this…
That might explain why Air Force Academy students miss out on the latest juicy gossip!!
Could you imagine having your hair done by Lt. Adrian, or Capt. Ramone??;o)
Astrology? I don't think NASA needs tarot card readers. ;-)
Be smart and start early
its pretty scary, but you laugh about it when its over. Beleive it or not, they are real people after basic.
Could you imagine the discussions at the Pentagon??
"General, the stakes are high and we don't have much time.

As far as listening to that young lady screeching?? I get plenty of that from my wife!!
Thanks!! BTW, I was joking!! :o)
im pretty sure the Academy is not going to let you in for hair degree lol.
I thought space cadets studied astrology!! :o)
I went through navy boot and I've seen videos from all the other branches boots and service academies. Something about the air force people just annoys the fuck out of me.
They could have picked a more masculine, less-douchy guy for the inprocessing.
Thats how they are supposed to act
lol, thanks
+religulous420 That is what Second Beast is for.
These cadets on the bus.. Trolololololol enlisted side baby
Why insult each other when we all end up serving the same country...?
christian munoz This is training bud 😂
blah blah blah.. gotta love the "I'm better than you" attitude..
They aren't even yelling. This is embarrassing for the Firsties.
This looks like a cool joke
At 0:16 The girl on our far right is super hot.
Brandon Wood yes so true
Claims that Air Force is "the only academy"
Forgets to name the fifth academy: Kings Point
I'm not impressed
Kings point isn't a military academy it's a service Academy.
Why are women on the bus
Smokey Dawg wow that was literally the gayest and most ignorant thing I've ever read...EVER. take a nap junior.
Cosmology?? You mean the Air Force Academy teaches students to be hair stylists??
Oh, yeah!!
@ 2:02: Look at the 'doo that guy's getting. Some kind of Mowhawk??
@ 2:20: This young lady must have had her hair done by a student who was just starting out.
lol space cadets, astrology is people think they can predict future events. Astronomy is study of space,planets, stars,,,etc.
This is nothing compared to BMT.
My god there is always one
world's greatest air and space force? uhhhh no. That belongs to the Navy. And 'THE' service academy? Get out of here.....they're all challenging and have their pros and cons. knocking other service academies goes nowhere
IL Diavolo I agree with the last part, but you're an idiot to think the navy is a stronger air force than US Air Force.
That's the way it should be. What self respecting enlisted man would want to have his head shaved by some fruit-loop named Adrian or Ramon??
