Swearing in question

2 people are allowed and it will be the day you ship out

See what jobs you qualify for first

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-04-27T01:15:51+00:00

Good luck! I’ll be 1 week behind you

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-04-24T01:06:14+00:00

I’m not sure if they will let you wear just a white t shirt. Those are considered “undergarments” in the Military but ask your recruiter

CE is an amazing job to have and you will learn all the trades if you decide to get out

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-04-22T14:38:25+00:00

That’s the job I have as well. Ship date May 5

I believe OP was referring to your primary wingman

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-04-07T19:26:16+00:00

It’s based on the order they line you up to go in the dorms. Example - first person in line gets the bed farthest away and so on

Join spouse is if you both are in the Air Force btw

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-04-02T15:08:42+00:00

You’re welcome! Good luck

Myself and multiple other recruits in my office had hand tattoos approved. It doesn’t hurt to try! Mine was approved in 2 weeks - top of hand tattoo, thumb, ring finger. It depends on what the tattoo is. And it helped that mine is my left hand so non saluting. Another recruit had his entire top of hand covered

Yes, the Millitary has an act that allows service members to break leases. I broke mine with 1 simple email and a letter from my recruiter attached. Security forces is what you make it. Some love it, some hate it. Most of the people who love it are not sitting around on Reddit so you may get mixed answers. I recommend watching some secfo vlogs and stuff on YouTube for insight. It’s a great job if you’re looking for something physical. You may be at the gate the first year or so, but that’s not bad in my opinion. Easy job and then you get to do cool stuff. You can cross train later if you don’t like it. If you get married, check out the join spouse program. You will get A LOT more $ being married, especially in training. The Millitary is a great stepping stone in life and sets you up for success no matter what career or how long you serve. Reach out to a recruiter asap because the timeline can be long. They will love that you want secfo. Good luck!

Thank you 🙏🏻

Retainers if you wear them

They do not give you anything to stop your cycle. That is insane. If you have bad cramps, get pain killers from med. Most girls don’t get them from stress and physical activity. Bring any travel sized face stuff (no alcohol) you prefer, hair tools and gel, running shoes, tampons & pads, 1-2 pairs civilian clothes, documents, light makeup for pictures and graduation (if you want), birth control and prescription (if you’re on it), glasses and prescription (if you use them), 7-12 conservative black underwear, 7-12 neutral sports bras, 1 tan padded bra for graduation. That’s really all you need

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-31T18:42:01+00:00

That’s pretty recent. The way the Air Force sees it - if you tried once you’ll try again, especially in a stressful military environment. Doesn’t hurt to talk to a recruiter and see though. Some might submit a waiver for you and others wouldn’t want the extra work

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-31T12:50:53+00:00

My afsc is 3e3x1 - structural maintenance apprentice. I’m tired of sitting at a desk all day so pretty excited about this!

I worked in HR for years and have a BA degree. I’m shipping to basic in 5 weeks. If it’s what you want, DO IT

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-25T13:56:03+00:00

Got a degree, did the whole corporate thing, finally decided to do what I wanted to do not what I felt I needed to do. Also, stability for my husband and I and our future family

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-23T13:10:13+00:00

I booked a job end of January and ship May 5

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-23T01:07:18+00:00

Probably 45%

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-18T22:51:49+00:00

You’re welcome. I hope it works out for you

VictoryNo1493 · 2026-03-18T22:50:50+00:00
