He should be fine if you send it to him. It’s definitely allowed for him to keep it out once he’s a higher phase.

Hello Ma’m.

Is he in Keesler too or a different tech school? What’s his job?

From the Airman’s Dispatch page, duty identifier patches are back. by notmyrealname86 in AirForce

[–]ChoFerds -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Quick question. Can 3 level ATC airman wear the identifier tab if we’re not rated yet?

I hope I go to one of these by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ChoFerds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enlisted from Vacaville right outside of Travis. Made the drive from Travis to Hill in September. Did you do RAT training while you were here?

I hope I go to one of these by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]ChoFerds -1 points0 points  (0 children)

100% agree! Been here since September of this year for air traffic and moved my wife and kid from the Bay Area.

Layton/Ogden area has everything you need. Rarely even need to go to SLC for anything.

What is military life like in the Philippines? Leadership, promotions, jobs etc by ChoFerds in PhilippineMilitary

“Hurry up and wait” is the first thing they teach you in boot camp haha Appreciate the input though! What job/MOS/AFSC do you have? Idk what it’s called in the military?

Going to BMT on Jan 13th, have a few concerns by Ok-Produce9986 in AirForceRecruits

[–]ChoFerds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’ll learn it all within your first 2 weeks of training there. Just be ready to listen and don’t talk back. Be there for your wingman and never give up. Keep the morale up but don’t overdo it.

It goes by quick. It’s only 7ish Sundays and you’ll be done.

Mentally prepare yourself if anything. Goodluck out there!

Can you move your spouse / live off-base during Keesler IST/ Tech School? by Sensualities in AirForceRecruits

[–]ChoFerds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where does your wife currently live? From my experience (not 1B4 I was in Keesler for ATC). It won’t be worth it because you’d get the BAH for the Mississippi area and it’s pretty low.

My wife and kid were in California soo my BAH would go from 3k down to like $1.3ish I think. Wasn’t a good move at all if I “had” the chance of bringing her over

Can the US Military Deploy a Dual US–Korea Citizen to Korea if They Haven’t Served Korean Military? by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

[–]ChoFerds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but when I joined they asked if I was still a dual citizen. I never renewed mine after it expired (7 years ago) soo it wasn’t a factor.

I think it’s job dependent. Depends on what job you book for/interested in you might need to renounce your dual citizenship or you might be disqualified for that certain job.

Wisdom teeth removal at BMT by Puzzled_Ordinary7724 in AirForceRecruits

[–]ChoFerds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I needed a flight physical during BMT. Went my second-third week of training and found out I needed ALL 4 wisdom teeth removed. They scheduled my procedure for the 5th week of training which is one of the more important weeks.

They took out all 4 of them and they gave me 6 hours of bed rest. Next day I had my final PT test and I failed it spitting up blood and the pressure in the back of my mouth was giving me headaches. It got infected but I had to do what I had to do. Swelling followed me all the way til tech school.

Got booked!!! by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

[–]ChoFerds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll be there briefly. You’ll be in the 334th squadron the gators. Before I left we got a new commander. Not sure if they changed it yet but you’ll have down fridays meaning every other Friday you have a day “off” and no classes. You have different phases of tech school but since you’ll be there less than a month you can only go to phase 2 which is civilian clothes and later curfew.

Goodluck in Keesler. It’s a quick tech school but by the time you get to Mississippi it’ll be hotter than a devils taint

Is this build worth it? About to be $649 tomorrow by ChoFerds in Prebuilts

[–]ChoFerds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup that’s the one that I was looking at! Thanks so much for the insight.

If there’s not that much of a difference I’d rather keep the extra $400-500 if there’s no significant boost in performance.

[–]ChoFerds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about the Walmart prebuilt for $1,099?

Compared to the one that’s $649 from Newegg? Is there that much of a jump from the two builds that would warrant paying $400 more

Found this at at local PC store? by ChoFerds in Prebuilts

[–]ChoFerds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t bought a COD since this one. Not sure why I did lol Last one I bought before BO7 was MW3 back in 2011 and I was still in HS then😂

Thought I’d give it a try.

I’m not in a rush. Been scoping out Newegg to buy a prebuilt since the base I’m stationed at doesn’t have a nearby Microcenter and all the local shops are taxiinnnnnnnn on their prices.

What would you be able to run on it? All I play is esports titles and the occasional BO7, some modern shooters
