What's with the teal rope and sexual harassment

[@sunflowerallie5180]

Rebecca Ingram I’d like to know too

[@Samantharoot]

So there is a program called SASH at Goodfellow (Students against sexual harassment) and it is a program tech school students can be a part of to help with the SAPR office (sexual assault prevent/response) All bases will have some sort of SAPR program in place and I know a lot of tech schools have the SASH program. Reporting sexual assault can be very difficult for some and a lot of people do not feel comfortable going directly to the SAPR office. So as a teal rope, people can go to you to report indecent or they could simply talk to you to find out more about who they need to talk to report an incident or you could even go to a teal rope just because you need someone to talk to. its a great program and I love being a part of it :)

[@sunflowerallie5180]

From a childhood sexual abuse survivor I think this is incredibly amazing ❣️

[@specialopsdes4192]

My techschool is in Sheppard TX, can I still be part of this program to help people.

[@ybntz6642]

Samantha Hill this should be everywhere

[@Dom-ox9gw]

Still impressed how different women look when they put on civilians after wearing the uniforms

[@seharhassan8315]

That's the whole point isn't it ... everyone has to look the same in the army 👌

[@IncredibleStan]

They do that on purpose

[@Cia_ann]

Also if you want your hair to look even better I suggest using a smoothing brush along with your regular one. Then you won’t have any bump and less fly always :)

[@Samantharoot]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

[@saradanger568]

facts, i learned this in boot camp for the marine corps with a nail brush

[@hannahd2458]

Im Army MI at Goodfellow. I see you around base a lot and thats cool, youre the first KZbinr I have seen in person. I love your videos, Ive been watching them since before I left for Basic.

[@Samantharoot]

Oh my gosh that is awesome, you should totally say hi next time!!

[@johnreed9050]

@@Samantharoot what is your mos?

[@s.ez.a.7651]

I was at Goodfellow in early 08, the dorms were so different. Crazy to see it now.

[@smiley5818]

I like the real rope and I’m glad you wear one for SASH

[@serenasmalley332]

I just got to goodfellow yesterday for my school and its so surreal being here after watching your videos! They're so inspiring and i love watching them!

[@Samantharoot]

that is so exciting you just got here!! I am so glad these videos were helpful, good luck :)

[@dianaperez5384]

My boyfriend was a teal rope and wing lead at his tech school! Love your channel!

[@Samantharoot]

HOW COOL!! being a teal rope is awesome, and thank you for the support :)

[@mickeybeahl3664]

Lmao, you Airforce personnel are so nice. I guess all the years of being Army Infantry, it's a change of pace.

[@darenab2618]

I lived in Germany and if she goes to Ramstein she's going to love her time there. Travel every chance you can get. It's worth it I promise.

[@Samantharoot]

I am so jealous!! she got a passport so I think she plans on traveling as much as she can :)

[@kmbdbz]

Make sure she knows about Ryanair! Im stationed at ROB :) which is about a 20 minute drive from Ramstein.

[@kwbaker28]

Was stationed at Ramstein for 8 years. I have a follow on to Spangdahlem after my short tour is done. Germany is amazing.

[@squidcatcosplay9374]

I leave tomorrow for BMT! Your videos have been so so useful in calming my nerves!

GOOD LUCK!! YOU ARE GONNA KILL IT!

[@prakritimahajan88]

Good Luck! You'll be great!

[@imanhernandez2905]

What branch?

[@cantthinkofaname7525]

iman hernandez bmt is air force

[@Karineydiaz]

Thinking about joining the marines once I get my braces off🤔🤷🏽‍♀️

[@rheannaoconnor2049]

I've been a geospatial intelligence imagery analyst in the Army for about 5 1/2 years now. Great pick! I worked up at Beale, AFB as a civilian. I really wish I had gone Air Force after seeing how much better they get treated lol.

[@Samantharoot]

HOW COOL!!! I haven't worked operationally yet and I already love it. I have a friend going to Beale next week :)

[@AnahiAislinn]

Watching your blogs make me so excited to enlist I just want it to come so quickly ps aspen looks hella bomb! So pretty

[@Samantharoot]

aspen is SO PRETTY, glad you agree 💕 good luck with enlisting :)

[@alexisbattle9308]

Hair standards are so much higher in the Marine Corps. That bun would NEVER do.

[@brendan8356]

What's the difference

[@lxly7644]

I know it’s really hard to get a bun to marine corps standards

[@alexisbattle9308]

The difference is it has to look flawless. There can’t be any stray hairs. The part has to be super clean.

[@alexisbattle9308]

BeingAmora if it’s not hard they why doesn’t every female in every branch do it?

[@Liaxlifts]

Amora Rose Please show me how to do one! I have crazy curly thick frizzy hair and I am joining the Air Force soon, I NEVER wear buns my hair is always down or in a ponytail . So I could use the tips!

[@abbypowers981]

My sister is in USAF and she got stationed in Guam for four months and then Australia and she will be there for two months and then home for 30 days❤️

[@ErickaBernie]

Awesome video Military sister 👌🏻🇺🇸

[@Samantharoot]

Thank you!!! :)

[@tinicoleofficial]

Joining soon. Glad I stumbled across your channel🤟🏾

[@kimberlyolson99]

I've always wondered what you would do with your hair if it's not long enough to go in a bun, but too long to leave down. My hair is extremely damaged, and a lot of split ends that don't go away even after getting it cut, would you just use gel to keep it down, bobby pins etc?

[@amyjudith4473]

You can also use a clip to put your hair up if you don’t want to cut it

[@TheWhitehammy]

Always a good day when I get the notification that you uploaded. ✌

[@Samantharoot]

AHH YOU ARE AWESOME, thank you for the support 💛

[@TheWhitehammy]

Samantha Hill You deserve it! ❤️

[@samanthaschafer2519]

It is so crazy that I ran into your channel! I recently left Goodfellow from the 344th MI BN for the Army!

[@Mellissaruizpa]

No curfew and having dinner with permanent party? Wowwww my tech school experience was way different. Glad you had more freedom though! :)

[@Jubayer982]

Yes..you re right...can we friend!

[@rebeccap5464]

Some advice for a smoother bun at the back is using a brush before you put it in a ponytail.

[@earlarthur9378]

Goodfellow. Probably my 2nd favorite base. I sure miss the Zero-One cheddar blanket burger!!!

[@faithlewis4258]

Are you enlisted or an officer? Don't know much about the Air force. Been looking into the Marines and Army but starting to consider Air Force. Great Video!

[@Samantharoot]

Thank you!! and I am enlisted :)

[@Sully125Jenn]

I left Goodfellow in March of 2018 and was a teal rope before I left :) My best friend became the liaison until she left in June for the 316th. Small world- hope you’re loving it!

[@plainjane497]

Wow that glowing skin. What do u use

[@inniehyun3554]

If you have short hair like your friend aspen do you have to put it in a bun or can it just be in a pony

[@Samantharoot]

It can be in a pony as long as it doesn't go past your collar!

[@inniehyun3554]

Okay thanks

[@Panda-nq3ko]

I want to join the military I've been thinking about Air Force , Army and Marines but your in the Air Force I just want help with my decision, because my mom wants me to join the Air Force but I've been thinking about the army and marines as my option. But what made you choose Air Force. Hopefully you see this :)

[@Samantharoot]

the Air Force just seemed like the best branch for me and I wanted to be in the guard and I live really close to an air national guard base!

[@johnreed9050]

If you're a female go air force. Don't even think of army or marines. You will be seen as a walking mattress whether you're like that or not.

[@kmbdbz]

I'm a female and I'm in the Army. Ignore John's comment about being a mattress. We're not objects and many desperate males will see you as that. I have dignity and you more than likely do too. Let me know if you have questions about Army. :)

[@johnreed9050]

@@kmbdbz I w just relating how the males stereotype females in the military. I was a platoon Sgt and had females in my unit. When I became plt Sgt I had a meeting with the males and one with the females. I told them what was expected from them and what to expect from me. I told the females that you will have to do twice as much to be seen as equal to males. I told them that how theyconduct themselves is how they will be treated. I told them they will not be allowed to get out of anything and will be required to do everything the males do. I told them they will not be targeted nor will I give them special treatment because they are females. I told both groups that if they can't get with this ill transfer you out of the unit. 4 males decided they couldn't get with the program and transferred them out. All females stayed and performed up to standards and not one brought the girl drama . They were all appreciative of how I treated them and I believe that's the only way it should be.

[@M1mye]

I went Marines and 2 weeks into bootcamp I regretted it and wanted to quit, but that feeling you get when you make it through the crucible and you're singing alongside your brother platoons is something you'll never feel again. MCT is what you thought bootcamp was going to be. Some girls thought it was tough, I thought it was a lot of fun. You shoot the M240 and do night shooting, etc, just loads of physical activities that you do alongside your brothers. One thing I don't recommend is being rowguard during the hikes at MCT, oooh boy, that 15k nearly killed me due to all that running with our packs. The first 4 months of nothing but physical training is tough but it does get easier when your body adapts. Keep in mind to train before you go, we dropped 20ish females in my platoon and over 50 in my series. Most are from broken bones or not getting high enough pt scores. I recommend being able to do at least 60 crunches, 2 pullups, and a 14 minute runtime on a mile and a half. You will be sleep deprived, hungry and sore when you do the initial pft test and if you don't pass, you get dropped. We lost 4 girls that day and I almost went with them. Push through the IT, work harder on your PT and get stronger. Do that and then you just have the school house to worry about😄

[@amazinglats6020]

Wow your friend got pretty lucky. My tech school was in Texas then I got stationed in Idaho, I’ve been here for over two years. Haven’t even gotten to deploy yet. Probably gonna be here for my full 6 years😭

[@jeallen7]

Curious the Goodfellow Airforce base in Texas? I graduated High School in that town and I swear about 1/2 my class joined the airforce ended up spending a lot of time chilling from the base. I also had family that worked on base.

[@Samantharoot]

Yes!! How cool :)

[@tracee16]

My husband is going to school at goodfellow!! Your videos have been helping me a lot with my decision on joining!

[@kionnacoward4062]

She’ll love the area Hurlburt AFB is located by. It’s so beautiful and not to mention I live about 10 minutes away from the base.

Thanks♥️✌🏼now I know what I’m Gonna do when I get in

[@DestinyVintage]

Army here that was at Goodfellow, it’s so rare finding people who have gone through there. I miss the flight line runs they were so easy, just down and back! Also Air Force having to wear camel backs at all time during the duty day is pretty new bc we use to envy y’all for not having to wear them.

[@Samantharoot]

How cool!! The flight line run were so much better than running around a track. Running down and back once just makes it feel so much shorter 😂

[@morganwindland43]

Damn Aspen !! Lol, I love your videos super motivational. Thank you for all you do and your service

Lunika Luna I was there for about 6 hours. I’m going in as a reservist so I did my asvab one day and my physical exam the next week. For those who are going active duty they do it all in one day so they were there a lot longer than I was.

Hi Samantha! I am 15 years old and thinking about joinign the airforce. Am I to young to start planning going into the airforce?

[@oldgergg]

Haley Logan 15 is kinda young to start the actual recruitment process but talk to your parents or whoever about it. When you’re 17 I’d say you could start talking to the recruiter but I’m the meantime, you’ll have a lot of time to do more research and become physically ready for it

[@musicmix6939]

It’s never too early to plan for your future.

[@sydney9]

this seems so cool and makes me want to join even more

[@s.t.jensen198]

I went to Goodfellow for Army AIT!

[@caitlinmoran639]

Not all tech schools are like this and most of them actually suck a lot 😬 I was at Keesler for 8 months and everyone hated their life there. If you make friends it’s bearable but there’s sooo many rules and everyone gets in trouble for one person. Idk it was terrible 🤷🏼‍♀️

So random question, I noticed Aspen has short hair and it’s in a pony tail. Does she wear it like that all the time? Does she have to create a small bun? I am curious because I am about to donate my hair before the military and was curious if having my hair short and in a pony tail like hers is within regulations. Thanks!!

[@Liaxlifts]

Hey! Do you know if mild eczema is allowed when enlisting for the Air Force?

[@autumnrohde367]

lia Lynnx I believe minor medical conditions are allowed as long as you have a large stock of any medications that you need, and that your condition will not affect the way you work at all as a soldier. So as long as you’re not distracted by it, I’d say you’re safe to enlist. Though I’d definitely take it up with a recruiting officer to make sure of it

[@oscare.3343]

Haha I left Goodfellow last year in September! Have fun do you know your next duty station?

[@Samantharoot]

Intel or fire?? I am in the guard so I am going back to Kansas :)

[@axethetic1516]

After tech school in the guard can you live on base or will you have to pay for housing after?

[@Samantharoot]

you will have to pay for housing unless you are on full time orders, than you getting a housing allowance!

[@chloereel9447]

I have a question about the hair, I shaved the back of my head when I was like 12🙄 and I kept doing it until about age 16 what do I have to do with my hair for things like this

[@autumnrohde367]

chloe long from what I know you’ll have to grow it out. I was considering a sort of undercut, but I’m close to applying for the Army so I can’t do that I have to grow my hair out and keep it as is. You can always wait a bit to apply but your hair has to be completely slicked back for female hair standards
