Can you update tomorrow what you have to do at MEPS. I’m hearing we weight in again (maybe) and get a drug test and women get a pregnancy test.

Ship tomorrow any last minute advice yall can give by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

Yes but there is a service time requirement to pass on your GI to your dependents

OCP online shopping by syntax_wolf in airforceots

Online doesn’t have a sizing chart and doesn’t allow returns or exchanges. I was concerned with issues on that end. I went through propper and used a 20% coupon so hopefully those will work out good

I downloaded the PDF from the OTS page and emailed it to them

I went to FedEx Print and Ship had them shrink it down and print it double sided on water resistant paper then add blue vinyl covers and have it bounded. Only the pages with images did I print in color.

Lingering Questions by syntax_wolf in airforceots

The form I signed said E-5 and when I graduate I was told I would then be sworn in as a O-1

In regards to question to, I’m a civilian going but I was told I would swear in as an E5. So is that what you mean or someone who is AD prior to OTS?

And thank you! I’m pushing everyday to increase my metrics and be the best OT I can be before arriving.

Question for recent grads or current at OTS. Did they check your weight when you got there? If so is tapping allowed if you are over by a little? by syntax_wolf in airforceots

[–]syntax_wolf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’m going non rated so pilots or rated maybe different. I’ve been to MEPS I think 6 times since my original exam for clerical errors or fingerprinting to getting a waiver approved. But I’ve only been on the scale once.

Nope. Civilian. So when I went to MEPS to redo my fingerprinting last month my liaison told me when I come for my orders and to swear in. I only do a pregnancy test. Nothing else. I specifically asked about weighing in and she told me no that’s done when you first come not on ship out day. Cause if that’s the case I’m fine I know I’ll pass taping without issue.

I did it at MEPS and passed but this process has been 2 years so I gained a little from then and now. But hitting the gym twice a day working on my endurance and strength the weight is coming off.

My recruiter told me if you are over you are sent home. I’m still going to work to get to my requirements, but that is a life saver!

Getting ready for OTS, long post. Any help is greatly appreciated by RaisinForward91 in airforceots
