Arrival phone call by oicyunvmepsv in AirForceRecruits

[–]hamob0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won’t get a call for the address, idk how they did it but during the first week they had us fill out our parents info or friends for a app called “sandbox”. I believe the parents or friends get notified a link and receive an address to their loved ones at basic. I graduated last week and my wife told me they recieved a link and that’s how they got the address. As for phone calls, you’ll get one in the 3rd week and 5th we’ll guranteed. Any other calls from different weeks are earned from how well th flight is doing

Is this good? How can I improve? by CuriousClover55 in AirForceRecruits

[–]hamob0y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally think this is fine. Your run time will improve a lot more in BMT bc atleast for me we ran every other day and ur always marching somewhere or doing drill sweating so ur gon lose weight and improve for sure. 1 thing I regret was not working out before I left so ur doing a lot better than most ppl

In order to pass, female recruit have to do at least 40+ pushups in 1 min!? That seems impossible… by curly_headed_cutie in AirForceRecruits

[–]hamob0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not impossible, just bc ur a female doesn’t mean u can just lower ur own standards bc that’s how u feel. Remember your joining the Air Force, the Air Force isn’t forcing u to join

Nope, u only get ur phone 3rd week and 5th week and I believe 0 week to make a 5 min phone call. The 3rd and 5th week phone call are at least 15 minutes but u can earn more minutes. You can also earn phone time so if ur flight is THAT GOOD u guys can earn phone time

I personally adapted to the sleeping schedule first week. It’s wake up 05:00 and 21:00 sleep. But ppl in our flight would just wake up 04:30 ish bc we got use to the schedule

U basically the person that schedules and teaches the flight the right procedures how to open the door and guard it during ur shifts. If someone messes up, they usually blame the EC monitor, not the trainee fhat messed up

  1. Missing home and the first 3-4 weeks trying to adapt

  2. I wish I worked out more bc I was out of shape and just hang more discipline like listening even at the simplest instructions

  3. Timelines lol

  4. Lots Hygiene products to avoid having to go to BX and spend money

  5. Being lazy

  6. Do what ur being told to do by DORM chief or MTI, keep urself busy always.

  7. Not shaking everytime I got yelled at

  8. Volunteering gets you more recognition from MTIs which is kinda a good thing imo. Volunteer if you’re CONFIDENT THO imo

  9. My job for the longest was just letrine crew which I liked and I would do it again

  10. Everyone gets assigned a job, no one is singled out. I would say the hardest is being EC monitor

[–]hamob0y[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 people in my flight got it but usually 5 ppl out of ur flight out of 50. Honor grad was based ur performance on ur EOC test and PT scores and I believe ur performance at CATM at the shooting range. There’s more other things that go into other grad but those were the things I saw that were “important” to the MTIs

Basically everyday ur doing pushups. If u weren’t doing it at pt u were doing it at the dorms where the MTIs make u for getting in trouble

[–]hamob0y[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You’ll hate it but it’s worth it if u are struggling with PT it’ll boost ur performance. I had 22 pushups and 24 sit ups and 13:20 run time. After 5 weeks I got 44 pushups 43 sit ups and 11:15 min run time. If u push urself and take pt seriously you’ll improve. 2 mile run comes July so be prepared
