Young man, please make a career from your Service. I’m a 32 year retired E-9 aircraft maintenance. Truly enjoyed all my deployments and growing up with everyone. Deployments are great growing experience. Y’all stay safe and God Bless for serving. I’m 65 and would do it all over again. Go Air Force……
Would you recommend your job? I was originally going to the army but my friends little brother recommended the Air Force so I’m trying get into avionic work
Yes sir, Avionics is a great career field. Long schools but you learn a wealth of knowledge especially in today’s technology updated aircraft and drones. Whatever you choose, always do your best and you’ll make it. You seem pretty sharp, maybe look at an Officer career, Pilot. Good luck and safe days to you and your Unit.
love the part where you said you'll get purpose and fulfillment from just being in the mindset of I'm helping someone. as a man, that's real af and currently looking for purpose rn
Have fun. I got a lot of school done while I was on deployments and got in some of the best shape of my life. Take advantage of the opportunities that you will not get stateside. I was enlisted aircrew, now a pilot. Did 6 years enlisted and commissioned through OTS in 2022. Keep up doing these videos.
perfect! just the person i was looking for. aircrew wise, do you have a lot of time to do school work on non fly days? debating on signing up for classes but i don’t want to overload myself between the long ass days and cramming school in
@@cantthinkofaname7525 you will be busy. When I was enlisted I sacrificed a lot to get my degree done and not be enlisted any longer than I wanted to be. Glad it all paid off, got me my commission and eventually pilot wings.
Man this takes me back a minute. Deployed life is something else and it definitively varies per location and leadership. I deployed 7 of my 8 years in the Air Force doing 6 in and 6 out. Missed a lot of birthdays and Anniversaries but gained a world of knowledge. We use to work 6 days 12 hrs shifts and that at times gets under your skin specially when the work is hard and you literally have to grind it out. The friendships you forge will last a lifetime. Love the positive mind set, dont let the deployment take it away. Seems like negativity surrounds most deployments I was involved. Keep at it brother and stay safe out there.
@@superdome8102 What I meant to say is that I deployed for 7 years of my 8 years in the military,. I was not away for 7 years. I was in a deployment for 6 months and then 6 months at my home base. I did that for 7 years.
@@superdome8102 It all depends on your job. I was part of an unit that deployed a lot. That was my choosing. Honestly you can possibly do an AF without deploying, you just have to be in career fields that are less likely to deploy. I wanted to deploy so I got into a career field that deploys a lot.
Been there done that with 2 tours, learned a lot about myself, met some good friends and never take things for granted. True of what was said that it is what you make out of it, thank you for what you do
Get used to being yelled at lol basic isn't like the marines or army but still annoying asf. Ppl forgot most who enlist are a bunch of kids and it's their first time out of mommy and daddy's warm home. But it's only a few weeks of depending on kids to get you through basic.
I appreciate all the videos you’ve made about Air Force! I’m shipping out for basic on Jan. 2nd and going in for Fire Protection. Hope to see you out there one day. 👍🏻
Love the video! I loved my time in the service. I didn’t have any intention of making a career out of The Air Force, all of sudden I looked up & twenty years went by. It went so fast! I left with three college degrees & several certifications (debt free). I tell anyone that goes in to take advantage of everything The Air Force has to offer. There is no reason to come out without a college degree. You should come out debt free & have a nice healthy investment portfolio (especially if you make a career out of it). Enjoy your time Young Man.
Hey Kev Thanks for your service 🫡 I’m currently still in the process of joining the Air Force my paperwork has already been sent off to MEPS just waiting to get the all clear. So I can take my test and my examination by the Military doctors. It took along time to get this far but it been worth the wait.
Harris terminal, one time I redirected a mission away from one squadron to my squardon by Social Engineering the DISA bros. I was mainly routers, switches, sipr, etc. etc.
You and I had vastly different experiences in the Military. In the Marines it was PT 0530 and go like hell till 2100 or sleep in the field. On deployment I lived in a mud hut, on patrol every day, and didn't shower for months. No hot chow either. Of course I was an 0311 Rifleman. The AF seems real nice and to think I was initially looking at being a radio guy in the AF lol.
Maybe you knew this, but 40 years ago or so, when I was in, your rank was the first level of NCO...aka... Sergeant or Buck Sergeant. Also 40 some years ago, there were zero deployments. Only a week to maybe 4 week TDY's. Great video though. Great content! I just subscribed.
I was deployed to San Vito air base Italy for 4 months back in 99. I leveled up big time in my career. Learned so much. No distractions. Pure bliss. TDY/ Deployment is definitely awesome for that. its actually the best part about being in Air Force. Except over the holidays. Great video bro.
@@user-nc5zf4dq3w nice just study exactly what you answered on the picat and you will be solid. I did the picat followed by the verification and still qualified for every job with my end score.
I remember being stationed at Yokota during Christmas in 88' with the AF Band and missing my stateside wife and family.... so I grabbed three of my single squadron mates and we got clearance to go up and down the flightline to all the shops and play Christmas carols for all those taking duty that night. We ended the night by heading over to the NCO club at midnight for a little Silent Night... not a dry eye in the house... and boy did the beer flow in after that! lol Best Christmas I can remember. Thanks for serving and wearing the blue!
Ali Al Salem. I was just there last year before i got out with dd214. Hope u enjoy it man, shit was easy but co workers & daily bs is what got tiring after 2nd/3rd month. Jan-Aug1st rotation 2022. 🇰🇼
Great video and great key points for deployment I feel like some people forget that there is some growth that comes from being deployed, because on my deployment a lot of people were negative and weren't taking the positive that come with the deployment experience.
Hey! thank you for your service, a insight into your daily life, and amazing motivational quotes. I'm actually looking into enlisting into the Air Force as well so this has been very helpful!
I’m trying to join the AirForce but I keep failing the ASVAB. I failed it twice so far. My next attempt will be in February. I’m 37 years old and currently deployed in Jordan as a contractor with the Army.
Look up "ASVAB" on the App Store or Google Play. There should be a free app with a star logo. Study each section and go over the practice questions. This should prepare you.
video we met last month in another deployment location probably i would say last month. Everything you said was great about deployments and there are tones of activities. I would like to add to new deployers set your goals and enjoy your time in the desert 🐪
Can't see your face on here brother but I'm pretty sure I remember you. Thanks for the support as always. It was great meeting you, that meant a lot. Stay safe out there brother!
My bro.... Good looking a true professional. By the way my man..... Are you guys tactical comm? I literally built the network at The "Deid" during OEF/OIF. Seriously, dude do your thing become a SNCO, but use that rank, don't be a self-serving politician. Seriously man this is good.
I'm 38 leaving for BMT very soon & my AFSC is 3E331 coming in as a A1C wish me luck I'll need it‼️🇺🇸 😂👴 (Just edited due to ofsec as u said in the end 💯)
Thank you Brother in Christ for sharing your thoughts, and ideas on deployment. You're also such a handsome young man who takes his duties seriously, which is really nice. I pray that Our Heavenly Father will protect you, and bless you throughout your day's on deployment. I look forward to watching more of your videos in the future my dear brother, and friend. Please take care of yourself, and stay safe in Jesus name. Amen 🙏 😊🇺🇸
Man! I’m not sure it is a compliment or you just being an i********* , his job is important too and besides it’s his first deployment. I’m sure in the future he has more to offer.
I wonder how long it took everyone in the military to change from chow or dining hall to DFAC? For an old timer, it sounds so strange, but I'm getting more used to it.
Cool Channel.....just subscribed......from Tampa.....Go Bucs!! I was an Air Force SP back in the day (1985-1997). I was at MacDill and was deployed to the first Gulf War (90-91). Amazing a lot hasn't changed ("Civis" and positioning shoes at the foot of the bed, Trailer bathrooms) and some things have (Taco Tuesdays). Question......can Airmen now grow Beards?
If it’s not sensitive, may I just ask which country it is (I know you guys cant say anything about locations, but it has an aspect which narrows it down to very few countries)
That's dopeee. I watched your channel for a while but thought you were a 1d7(more cyber based). I have the same afsc. How is it? What can you compare it to on the Civilian side? Are you taking college classes? If so, what major, and how does it connect with your afsc? Any advice i need to know for tech school?
Hey, so I am a 1D751R, or 1D751W with the new shreds. I've had a great time with it. Radio is lesser known, but a very interesting field. You'll do something different at almost every base you work at. It really shows its importance in deployed or tactical comm environments. On the civilian side, a lot of guys go to work on similar equipment as RF or SATCOM technicians/engineers with companies like Raytheon, Motorola and others. With our general IT knowledge, some guys get other IT certification or degrees and go to work in other IT fields as well. If you were thinking about a more cyber-based AFSC, you are probably thinking of 1B4, Cyber-warfare. I'm not sure how it is now, but it used to be a cross-train only field, meaning you couldn't enlist with that job. All 1D7 are related to Comm and maintaining Comm infrastructure in garrison or deployed. I am taking classes, studying Cybersecurity Technology. All 1D7 fields are currently merging, so taking classes such as Computer Troubleshooting, Network Fundamentals and Security, Linux, VMs and more have been very useful as I look to expand my overall IT knowledgebase outside of radio, as we all are preparing to do each other's job in the 1D7 field. For tech school, just take the time to learn the material. It's not super hard, as long as you take some of your own free time to study the material to fully understand the concepts. Things such as radio and SATCOM theory will really come in handy one you start working at your duty station. The labs are pretty fun as when, when you're troubleshooting "broken" equipment. Enjoy yourself out there. Tech school is a great time. Hope this all helps.
@thelifewithkev it for sure does help. Thank you. Also, I highly respect your personality and the way you carry yourself. Very humble and kinda like a big brother to your subscribers spreading positivity. Wish you the best!
