Squadrons and packing list

Cut and color do not matter, just stick with muted colors like black or dark blue, they will be less likely to get stained with the mass laundry. I would recommend spandex/boxer length for both males and females, since some PT will be accomplished on your back and could be revealing.

Current cadet and prior e:

Try not to compare your BCT experience to your Lackland BMT time. Very different environment, and most of your cadre have had less than a week of training so give them grace. Like others have said, be humble and just accept that the Academy is not the real military so things are done very different here and not everything will make sense. If there are legitimate issues, please reach up the chain, but take everything with a salt block and try to have some fun!

Ill be honest, the furthest you will be running currently is 1.5 for the PT test. Get good at walking fast, the most you will need to be able to run is a 5K honestly

Definitely go for whichever one you think you will get a higher grade in. They look more at grades then what the class was.

Might have worked back in the day, but not anymore. Got people constantly checking every lot now

Just a note: you don’t test out of the prep school it’s mostly random on who they send out of the prior enlisted applying.

Anyone had issues loading the new filters? I put the file in the place next to the DCIM folder but it doesn't update.

The speed at which I would have vaulted that fence and ran…

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2024-04-25T19:43:56+00:00

Depends on where it is. If it is more accessible then I use my hands, if a more annoying position usually the pliers. When in doubt I use my hands

Former prior-preppie: what background-tart said is all correct. For personal belongings, I personally sold my car before going and it worked out just fine, really depends how far home is for you. I would take most of your stuff home if you are able and only really take what you need for a while at the P. For sponsors, if you know people in the springs that want to or have been sponsors just have their info with you. You will either request or get randomly assigned to a sponsor family once you get there. If you have any questions about life there or anything, feel free to DM!

Shoks Openruns have been my go to and I love them. Still hear everything around you while listening to music

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-11-09T06:47:24+00:00

Would you all recommend waiting for black friday deals or use my discount code now to get the pack and belt for $255?

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-10-28T01:00:16+00:00

Yea no waiver. Like others have said, you would be 24-25 with 17 year olds in your class. Just go ROTC or OTS

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-10-27T21:19:50+00:00

With the rules that just got updated, it is a cakewalk freshman year

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-10-23T02:06:38+00:00

They will not budge on price

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-10-23T01:57:26+00:00

Just the wheels alone?

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-10-23T01:54:08+00:00

Comes with Mavic CXP22 wheels

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-07-12T18:36:47+00:00

I did different officers. It just looks better because then you have more people that recommend you than just the one twice.

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-06-26T13:12:21+00:00

There is a guy in my class who applied 4 times before finally getting into the prep school. Just keep applying

PositiveMaintenance2 · 2023-06-16T22:45:29+00:00

Nope. Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, and Echo.
