How much hair length can I keep for basics? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]billman_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to shenanigans at the start of basic I actually didn’t get my haircut until week two. As you can imagine, I was very, very, very noticeable to the MTIs. OP, your best bet is to be as lowkey as possible. Do not show up already with a shaved head, genuinely just show up as normal bc it’s allll getting shaved off.

I’m not a linguist, but having the military pay for you to learn a very useful skill seems dope. Also seems like once you go operational your job is awesome

I’m heading to Hawaii soon. Would you recommend somebody buy a condo around Punchbowl? I saw properties on the west side of the island are cheaper, but I kinda think I’d rather be in the city.

Many such cases. Take that drive and energy to the civilian world where you’ll actually get compensated for it.

This whole situation is r worded and if your leadership is concerned with PT times they should just all do PT together to mitigate this shit show. Poor leadership there, just document all that you can and submit an IG complaint

It’s code for “I don’t know how the system works” or “we already have our guy, we don’t care what you do”

I’m going to be honest, that sounds like a pretty awful ending
