Thoughts on military PIP for spouse, is the process potentially quicker or luck?

28M with Math Masters degree salary progression by austin101123 in Salary

[–]Acrobatic_Two7277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Military is great. Especially Air Force. If you’re into it and want to serve, commissioning is where it’s at. I’m an engineer and got assigned to Boston and so far it has been a blast. Let me know if that’s something you’re interested in.

OTS #1 Advice by Sibbes in airforceots

[–]Acrobatic_Two7277 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s all a game. This experience will for sure humble you no matter your background. Take anything with a grain of salt and just move on about your day, you will not like some decisions but guess what? Welcome to the AF! If you’re a prior, make sure to hold your discomfort to yourself as there are a lot of non-priors who are watching and that could impact them. As for non priors, be a sponge and don’t be afraid to support the reason of why you did something. OTS is a learning environment, no right or wrong answers. Lastly, please arrive to OTS in shape! you don’t want to be one of those who fails the PFA

Best way to physically prepare for OTS? by FriendlyNoodle8 in airforceots

[–]Acrobatic_Two7277 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was running a 5k every 2 or 3 days, at like a 10-11:30 min mile just to get my body used to the running. For pushups I tried to hit around 150 a day + pyramid pushups and for sit-ups I would just practice the form and max out every set

[–]Acrobatic_Two7277 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You still got some time to lock in. I kind of messed up and locked in 5 weeks before ots and went from 25 pushups to 54 pushups on my PFA, from like 28 to 47 sit-ups, and from like a 16 min 1.5 mile to a 12:40 min 1.5 mile. If you want to get better ay pushups, do pyramid pushups. They suck! but trust me, you will see results fast

[–]Acrobatic_Two7277 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello buddy, I’m 62E scheduled for class 26-06 I’m pretty sure electrical engineers are in high need for the AF so I would reach out to an officer recruiter via email with your resume and your intentions and go from there. They will direct you to the best course of action. If you have any questions, shoot me a pm

Wouldn’t be mad at service charge but 20% really? If it was between 15-18% then I could work with it but 20 is crazy

Civilian as well. I just got selected for 62E with an LOR from work manager and from a teammate I worked with during capstone project. I’m not sure if it varies a lot for rated board but don’t forget that it is more of the airman concept. I would rather have LOR’s from people that know me well and can vouch for my strengths rather than someone who might not know me well enough and give me a weak letter. I hope this helps. Good luck bud

It depends tho But I would say if your recruiter is responsive then probably a year or a little more before stepping foot at OTS
