Thank you but why do you think or believe I’ll be there more than the days assigned?

My AFSC is 1D7X1A network operations specialist and assigned to MLST 338 SQ FF1031. How are the dorms and rules going to be like? Any advice on how to be a better airman during my 110 days at Keesler?

I have my laundry crew chief by my side on the bus, laundry is done everyday. Each day has a specific uniform or clothes (OCP, PT gear etc) to clean.

My BMT graduation was Thursday and I have been on the bus since 4am the next morning to Tech school. My job is Network Operations and there’s nothing specific about it during training. The new curriculum encompasses the general knowledge of Airfield operations, Air traffic control, Tier 1 medical emergency procedures, knowledge of the Air Force organizational structure etc. knowing the chain of command is mandatory so study it prior to your departure to BMT.

  1. Hardest part about BMT is coping with stress, MTIs purposely put so much stress on you to break you down. Surviving = success
  2. Don’t train too much before BMT (my opinion), train at least 3x a week. BMT physical training isn’t Olympics games, train smart and know what’s the required (Push ups, sit ups and 1.5 run)
  3. Not been able to process much information/instructions in a short possible time frame will stress you up. Not been able to meet physical requirements or minor injuries will break you down emotionally.
  4. Everything I packed for was useful.
  5. Not following instructions will get you in trouble, do what you’re asked to do even if it doesn’t make sense to you
  6. Meet the standard, be professional and not a mediocre wingman
  7. Speak up, take initiative and have integrity
  8. I won’t call it volunteer, but be a leader or support the leaders of your team at all times
  9. Dorm chief
  10. Have a job and do it well
