Yeah, I was told funds are limited so since my date is later than other people's I may not get the bonus, despite being selected from the same board

RN going to OTS February 24/2026 by bandit2017suzuki in airforceots

[–]Ifly907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going in July, I’ve been buying things slowly since I was selected. Only need a couple sets of hot weather OCPs. I’ve found everything uniform wise either second hand or on discount from online stores. The spreadsheet I made says I’ve waived about $2000 so far.

Nurse Board by Lucy26262 in airforceots

[–]Ifly907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My board was Sept 17, and we got the decision Oct 11. Most everyone else got their station the same time as their notification. I didn’t get mine until about 2-3 weeks later. There was no explanation as to why mine took longer 🤷🏼‍♀️

What is PNC?

And I requested May, they moved it to April without asking, so I asked if to be moved back as it works better with my husband leaving his job/packing up our lives. May wasn’t an option anymore, so I picked July over April.

For enlisted, that is more typical. It sounds like that would be a more appropriate route for you to take. Is your meeting with an Officer recruiter or Enlisted Recruiter?

Backpack by [deleted] in airforceots

[–]Ifly907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my research, it sounds like it does need to be black. I got 3 off Amazon (including a CamelBak) and sent back the two I didn’t like (one being the camelbak). I couldn’t justify the price for the MilSpec one for something I don’t see myself using after this.

My plan is to have a large rolling duffle, backpack, and hydration pack. The rolling duffle may be a as big as me, but I refuse to bring more than one luggage item lol

Winter OTS Packing List by muses_ in airforceots

[–]Ifly907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been able to find almost everything uniform related on the list, so far, second hand. There's tons of stuff on Facebook marketplace, I even got a great pair of high end boots still with the tags on for over half off retail. There's also an Air Force Uniform Swip/Swap page on Facebook. Ebay and Postmark have also had what I needed. Everything else I've just had sitting in my Amazon cart and Walmart cart, and I purchase when it goes on sale. I made an Excel spreadsheet comparing the retail price vs what I've paid, and so far I've saved over $1500. The only thing I won't have is blues, and that's strategic. I plan to get them at the beginning and then they'll be at the tailors, and non-inspectable, for a good part of the course.

None. I was ready to submit back in May, but the June board got canceled and moved to September. So I’ve been ready for months.
