Thank you for watching!!! Don't forget to subscribe :)
Your videos are WAY better then all the guys one I’ve watched. Thank you for planning ahead and writing everything down to inform us nervous wrecks! And I have slight OCD so I like to know what to expect to mentally prepare as well as prepare in general like what to bring what to look out for etc...
Try not to overthink things and don't let your nervousness show or get the better of you. It actually makes the situation worse
This was so helpful, also girl you should drop a skincare routine, because your skin is literally goals. 🤩
ANY TIME... ANY PLACE... MUSTANGS!!! I actually just graduated basic through the 323 and am at tech school now. Your videos are very accurate. I can look back at basic and realize it wasn’t so bad and after 4th week it really flew. I always told people “I wouldn’t say it gets easier, you just get better at knowing what to do.”
It's crazy to know 9 yrs later everything is exactly.the.same. except Disneyland
Same. also 323 flight 317 back in '96.
If you run into Abby McDonald in school, tell her Dad say's hi LOL! Congrats on your decision to join the AF. So many doors will open for you guys, should you choose to take advantage off them all!
Two videos almost back to back!! I’m so happy rn ❤️😂
I'm glad your back and how you're giving a fresh update on basic!
I'm so excited. I have an eye consultation this Wednesday that MEPS is having me do. My ASVAB score qualified me for everything but my vision needs to get checked before I am able to completely swear in. Thankfully I won't have to do the complete MEPs once I go back. Thanks for the info!
Update! Eye consultation was cleared for me, as well as I am now enlisted in the DEP program and I ship June 25th! My first DEP call is this Saturday. I'm excited 😁
Congratulations
Like watching your videos sister they are awesome and I love hearing about how life is for you in the US Air Force, it’s not 100% different from Army life but it’s interesting for sure. Glad you graduated BMT now go kick ass at Tech School. I have no doubt you’ll do amazing there to. By the way I can see your not only a strong determined person but also intelligent so I hope you use that talent and be a TI one day. I think you’d do amazing at that.
Just here waiting... thank you Brittany for making these. I’m sure you’re busy with tech but still making time to make these for us!
Yes THANK YOU!!!!!
Loving these updates and your enthusiasm when talking !! Thank you. I feel I’m getting the most and best info from your channel. ☺️
im currently a sophmore and ive been in jrotc for 2 years .. i have 3 more years before i can finally join the air force.. cant wait ! amazing video and thank your for your service!
Join the army or marines don’t be like every other female and join the airforce
@@dalastmag1929 why would I do that? my GPA is close to a 4.0 I got the brain, mindset, determination that the air Force needs .
I went to basic training in 2012 and we did 8 1/2 weeks, but you're stories seem a lot more relaxed and easier then when I went. We did PT at 4:45 right after we woke up, got screamed at and PT'd all day long for stupid stuff. After PT we did our shower and shaved. They drilled us all the time, especially at the beginning of Basic. We had only had a call after the 2st 2 week and then we got 10 minutes on the phone once a week. We were in the old dorms too which we're old..., the new dorms were being built. Nice to hear the differences over time.
PT is still in the morning for summer schedule. I went during the winter schedule.
I know the people I met that went to during the winter did PT in the afternoon. I was there from april to june so we just did it in the mornings.
Another vlog ... YESSSSS! Appreciate your detailed vlogs!
ur vids are very helpful i wish i could serve my country but i was denied about 2 yrs ago from the airforce and then again from the army but i still watch all the vids like im leaving for basic bc its all i want to do still. have a great career and thank you !!!!
I ship out March 26th and I’m a slow runner and my endurance SUCKS! Lol that’s the only thing I’m worried about. It makes me wish I did this when I was younger lol. I’m 26.
Run as much as you can now and stay as hydrated as possible! I'd also start taking a prenatal vitamin and/or iron supplement up until you leave!
Very helpful and informative, definitely excited to eventually experience bmt myself.
This is awesome that you are making these vids rn. I leave for basic on the 19th of this month 🙌🏻
Me too I leave march 19
GIRL ME TOO! Brittany is saving lives here!
Cant agree more!❤Wishing you the best at basic!!!
How was it guys?
What was your experience like?
Anytime, Anyplace, Mustang's! Excellence Always! No Excuses!
This is super helpful! Had no idea they changed up basic training like that. Looking forward to future videos, especially since I just swore into DEP yesterday
I love these videos sooo much, thank you 😌
this makes me sooo excited!! than you!! i may be leaving Nov. 5th!!!
ANY TIME, ANY PLACE MUSTANGS! That was my squadron as well
Your videos are so helpful thanks so much
Can you do a video for the pt tests for both male and female, the min/max of each test in order to pass?
you’re back!!! i seriously check your channel everyday waiting for you to finally post hahaha. great videos keep them up
❤️ ur videos they are so informative!!
Your videos are awesome ! I’m waiting on a date for MEPs.
My daughter will be doing a job in the intelligence department too. When will her special classes start, how many/often will they be and what is she missing with her flight while she is at those classes?
Thank you for your videos. New sub here. Currently in DEP. You mentioned vending machines in your video. How much cash do you recommend bringing? I’ve heard you have to account for every bill by serial number so just wondering what’s best.
I didn’t bring cash. My money list was always empty and it’s easier that way.
Brittany Willis gotcha. Cool thank you
Who did you have for MTIs? I was in the 323 also, but I went through last year in June
Never make eye contact, burst out laughing when you started that story
I ship out April 2nd and I’m really nervous with the rifle part, I’m so glad you mentioned it here. I can do 25 push-ups, a pull up, 25 sit-ups (i need to work more on this one) and 16-17 min 1.5 mile run which i also need to work on more. I really hate having short legs bcs I’m only 4’11 so running faster is really much more work for me. I’ve been in DEP for 2 years and I’ve finally gotten my shipping date so I’m trying to get the best out of it and work hard. Do you get much time to improve more? So it is 8.5 weeks till graduation then there will be no more airman’s week after?
Francesca Parguian I leave April 2nd also!
Wishing you ladies the best at basic!!!❤💪
Tiny Lo omg really? That’s nice! See you there! May I know how you’re getting ready for it?
Breauna Hall thank you, ma’am! :)
@@francescaparguian6446 Anytime,of course!❤
I really like your videos...keep it up 😊
RAF here wishing you well on your journey. BTW we are better but I still like you guys lol
You said they took away airman’s week!? What did they replace it with or is it just 8.5 weeks of actual bmt now?
8.5 weeks of BMT
Callie May 8.5 weeks of bmt and airmen’s time is spread out throughout the weeks of training
So MTIs yell at you a lot. Do they require you to yell back when answering them? How much trouble would you get in if you always had a calm voice...no matter what
Most of the time, no. Sometimes when I was chow runner, yes lol.
Sounds like a vacation
I love your Videos
With all the classes that you go to in BMT are there written tests that you have to pass in order to make it through? What about the classes in tech school? Are these all training classes or will you have to pass tests in order to graduate both tech an bmt ?
Trey
Treyvon Sanchez you just take an EOC your sixth week of training
Thank you!
Loved it 💕
Did you end up needing those compression shorts? Even if just for the inspections? What did you need that you had to buy yourself for that?
No they aren’t required but I wore them under ABUs sometimes because they’re kind of a rough material!
Did you lose any weight when you left boot camp and did you build muscle?
I lost 2 lbs lol but I definitely gained muscle so I probably lost fat too
Very helpful videos Brittany, I’m leaving for bmt May 7th as an E3. I heard from a friend that recommend me to take a lighter for burning the streams from my clothes, is that acceptable, won’t they take it in the airport?. Another questions, I been more focused on improving my pt times that I haven’t really study much of the ranks... should I get to it urgently or I should be ok learning that in bmt?. Thank you, and thank you for the videos.
You can’t take a lighter on an airplane lol you can use scissors or nail clippers for the strings on your uniform. And you’ll have plenty of time to learn the ranks when you get to BMT but it’s better to know them before you get there! :)
Brittany Willis that’s good to know haha. I’ll start reviewing everything in this next few days I have left. Thank you. If you can answer one more question.. how is it being a little be older than the rest in there, I’m 31 yo.
It was hard to relate to the rest of my flight most of the time but it’s only 8 weeks so it’s worth it!
Brittany Willis thank you, I’m shipping today!. At meps right now.
DORM TOUR Please!
I would like to know what is your best advice for someone who is trying to study for the asvab to get into the air force because I have tried everything to take this asvab and get in my recruiter hasn't contacted me and I dont know what is the best thing to do?
Go to a different recruiter 😊
@@kristastevens6442 Thank you Krista I definitely will speak to another recruiter!
When do you get your first phone call? I ship pretty soon
We got ours the second day
Heyyyyy I was also a mustang ❤️
What gel do you recommend using? Also how often did you get phone calls home to your family?
I liked tresemme or the green gel in a tub you get at the BX lol I think we got 3-4 phone calls
i have a few questions .; okay first
so when u graduate u have your own dorm and everything changes right? u have enough time for everything and like free time , since u are recording .. also
im a fast runner like i can run fast but not for a long period of time.. what would u recommend for me to do to get better?
You'll have a roommate or two in the dorms at tech school. We're off on weekends unlike in basic. Try practicing sprints/opening up your stride to get faster. It's something I need to continue working on too.
Auribel B many recruiters have told me that running is more about consistency than speed. It’s great if you can run 1 and half miles in 10 minutes but it’s important to be able to remain at a constant pace for 30 minutes. Running is a mental challenge as much as physical, remember to control your breathing (try breathing with your stomach 3-2 ratio) and to remind yourself when you’re getting tired that the pain is temporary and will be worth it in the long run
Also where do you get all your airforce attire from ??? Do they issue everything ? Like that airforce hoodie you had on your last video before BMT
That one was from my recruiter! This one I bought at BMT
What materials did you use to study for the asvab
It’s in my asvab video :)
I saw the backpack they issue has a DIYed name tape but because my spouse is active duty I have an official name tape, can I use my own or not? It’s a very specific circumstance but just wondering if anyone has advice on that
I'm a guy do they give you disposable razors and shaveing cream or should I buy it when we go to the bx or should I bring it to bmt?
I’m not sure how it works for guys. I just brought my own.
What was a typical day like ? Did y'all have coffee ? Lol
MirAguirre there’s coffee at the dfac but you don’t really have to actually get the coffee bc MTIs are always yelling at you
Is acne a disqualification? Trying to get through meps next week.
It can be
Nah I went through MEPS with acne, they'll give you a sheet that you fill out with all your medical conditions you just have to list it then they don't care
Nah I went through MEPS with acne, they'll give you a sheet that you fill out with all your medical conditions you just have to list it then they don't care
@@MorganHowell-Kastner Did you need to get a waiver for it?
jim ammor no I didn’t I asked the guy that gave us our medical papers and stuff and he said unless you have extreme cystic acne that you don’t have to worry. I just have normal teenage breakouts and acne scars and it was totally okay
Question in bmt if you have really bad cavities some that can be filled and one that needs to be pulled would they disqualify you or will they pull and fill them?
Your videos are my favorite. I ship out in a month and this has been the most helpful information so far! Can you tell me what your final PT score was when you graduated? I was feeling confident until I looked at the dep call app and saw that the minimum for situps is like 50 something 😭
n00nar i leave in a month too! When is your ship date?
@@katelyn4291 April 9th, but I'm coming from Okinawa so I'll be there super late on the 10th or so :) what about you??
I ship out April 16th, so just behind you! I’m coming from Arizona
@@katelyn4291 right on! What job are you? I'm open mech so I wont know until much later
Oh sweet I’m doing intel :-)
This is a random question, but what beverages were offered for breakfast? Did they have coffee? lol.
Milk, chocolate milk, water, a few different juices, and yes coffee
@@Brittanylynnlewis that's comforting to hear lol
What they ask during inspection
Also what are the minimum amount of pushups needed to pass pt? I had rotator cuff surgery on my shoulder a year ago and am trying to building up the strength now!
18!
Brittany Willis thank you!!!
What tech school are you at?
what happens if you cant pass the 18 push ups for pt?
Are men and women integrated?
We sleep in separate dorms but those dorms are in the same building. We PT together, eat together, go to BEAST together, etc.
What was the cell phone policy ?
What did you use to purchase stuff at the Bx
You get a $400.00 visa
So you don’t go home for Christmas in the AF ?
It’s not an option in BMT
What’s your AFSC again?
I ship out April 30th, and I know you have an intel job I sadly got stuck with intel 😩
Don't be sad about Intel. There are harder jobs out there.
I think she said she was going to be an 1NO.
Reaghan Stringfellow I leave April 30 as well! Open mechanical though
@@reaghan13 isn't Intel a good job?
so like do you guys not ever shower in basic training 😷
Every day
Weak 3 weak 3!!!!
...did you get the new OCP uniform?
No they were still issuing ABUs
Ocp? Is that the new camis that are coming out for airforce ?
MirAguirre Yes. Similar to the Army’s uniform. They’ll begin issuing them during October of this year at basic training.
Oh okay. So glad you made it through !
So you will have to pay again for uniforms (uniforms came out of your first check, right?) ... or will they switch them out?
How do you fit in washing ur clothes with all the training??
Everyone gets assigned jobs so there’s a few people who do laundry for the flight
@@Brittanylynnlewis thank you for answering my question I appreciate it. I hope you are enjoying the air Force.
Where you able to make a romantic connection there?
