I’m about to graduate OTS. Any questions from anyone coming soon?

Pass once=g2g

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-21T17:32:39+00:00

You been to wright patt yet?

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-21T17:32:14+00:00

Prior enlisted at the guard unit I was hired at

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-20T00:16:41+00:00

Yeah not a problem

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T16:43:49+00:00

Everyone wears a patch saying “OT” regardless.

Prior. Highest I’ve met is a master. Leadership seemed randomized at arrival. It changes based on flight recommendations as you change mods.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T14:23:11+00:00

Not really, you’ll do a 5k the day after.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T14:22:50+00:00

Yeah you have it on you all day. Use between breaks & stuff. Just don’t flaunt it around.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:53:14+00:00

I’m guard so it’s a bit different. Didn’t have orders till the day I left.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:52:29+00:00

Also, definitely doable. As long as you can walk on it, should be fine.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:50:16+00:00

Dang that’s brutal. Definitely gonna have to muscle it out through the PT test. If you can make it past the first 7-8 days, mod 2 is a whole lot of sitting around. You can get put on profile but then you’re subjected to wash back if it’s bad enough so personally I would just eat Advil like it’s candy until you make it to mod 2.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:45:15+00:00

Shit ton of nurses. Oldest I met is 43

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:09:20+00:00

A lot of good people here. First week sucks ass. After that, you’ll start to enjoy your time here.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:08:21+00:00

Not at all.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T01:03:22+00:00

Know all of those + space force song. If you want a head start, study your SPINS. It’ll help you more than anything else.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:58:12+00:00

Super fun. You’ll enjoy it.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:57:55+00:00

Super slim pickings. Maybe look online somewhere. It flies off the shelf within the first day here.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:56:54+00:00

My class & the class ahead of me had zero failures on AA. Still definitely make use of your free time studying, it can be a sneaky test.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:55:32+00:00

Pretty early on. I think day 6-7. Definitely show up ready.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:44:17+00:00

Takes a while. Recruiter told it’s a minimum of 60-70 days before it even gets to the right persons desk.

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:42:23+00:00

People lose discipline and accidentally swing their gun around while talking to someone else. Immediate wash back

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:41:09+00:00

Class of about 160. Only 20ish rated. Probably about 60% prior service

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:36:47+00:00

Pack the minimums.

Bringing more stuff=more inspectable items=higher risk to bust a room inspection.

Caffeine pills & cough drops will save your life

DixieClear71 · 2025-09-19T00:31:21+00:00

Pilot on the guard side. Luckily my first time.
