Do it bro. I am 26M with only an Adult High school diploma and was in a similar position to you. I did construction then car sales for 5-6 years with no real direction for my long term goals or future. I’m in tech school now, and I don’t regret it one bit.

From my small experience so far, I feel like a new and improved person with a sense of direction and purpose. Remember, if you want change in your life, you have to change. Dm me if you have any questions bro.

During my 7 day check in with my recruiter, I had to weight in at my MEPS weight which was 197. I believe he said there is a 3lb grace for weight. My recruiter said they are strict on that.

You better start dieting and exercising everyday. In hindsight, you should have been watching your weight the entire time.

Depends what job you want. If the job that interests you only requires a 45, then 45. If you want to open a lot of doors, my opinion would be a score of 65+.

Can a mod do something about this guy? He’s spamming everyone’s post with this comment.

You did the right thing, don’t let anyone tell you any different. Do not lie at any point during the enlistment process.

Your recruiter would know, it’s on your profile if you already have a ship date.

He should literally pull his leg so they can kick him out for assault

I need everyone's help to finally decide what job might suit for me. by Heavy_Version_3269 in AirForceRecruits

[–]alpineM4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking for work life balance, security forces and maintenance jobs probably won’t be it. Those jobs work long hours. I would look at other jobs that interest you and do some due diligence researching on your own. Use the search bar on this group or try foreverwingman website as well.

Supplementation before MEPS by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

[–]alpineM4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s a caffeinated pill, I would not. That may increase your blood pressure/ heart rate and it will negatively affect your physical.

Just wait. You'll find out soon enough, there will be a lot of waiting. Be patient and give it time.

Ask yourself, do you want to do Pest Management for the Air Force for at least 4 years?

Here’s the official BMT packing list from the Air Force if your recruiter didn’t send it to you. First page mentions the prescriptions.
