My daughter left about a week ago to boot camp and she never called to let me know she arrived and I heard she was supposed to have a 30 sec. call to let me know she arrived safely.

Yes usually that is how it goes, maybe her phone was dead or they didn’t let them call so I would expect her address in the mail until they allow her another call.

When did you get your head shaved and how many haircuts did you get? Are you allowed to go to doctors appointments during the 2 week quarantine. Can you bring your glasses without your prescription?

[@AirmanNick]

They will prescribe you glasses if you wear them most likely, and we got 2 haircuts ur supposed to get 3 but we skipped out on the last one. And during first week there you will receive your brand new shaved head lol

[@wb871]

Airman Nick That’s sounds good wish we had the gas chamber and graduation I ship out on September 22 😂. Did you end up using a lot of money to buy necessities on the credit card they give you? I think it’s like $400.

@@Quinnmcwhorter in the dormitory they weren’t strict on us as much with the masks. So we had them off from time to time after the quarantine period since we all came out negative.

Awesome I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Some tips would be too not overthink and worry about getting screamed at it will get better after 2 weeks in, study your memory work as much as possible you’re gonna get quizzed on it, and just make friends and try to stay off your MTI radar if you can!

Happy the videos are helping out, I’m almost done with my training here everything’s so far so good almost done! Best of luck to your son!

4. 2 are auto given upon completion. Dont start ribbon hunting and medal chasing. The ones u get in basic are for show only not point value anyways.

[@cheekywombat3319]

Thanks man! My recruiter didn’t have much information on bmt during Covid so this is a big help. I’m just waiting for my job contact so hopefully I’ll be leaving sometime in January. Not sure if these restrictions will still be up by that time.

[@AirmanNick]

glad the videos helped out man, and yes the Covid restrictions will hopefully all be done with by the time you go through and you will get to have a graduation!

[@Agreen-iw6ix]

Hey man, thanks for the great videos! Quick question. Do they still allow the airmen to spend the weekend with family in San Antonio after graduating BMT? I live near Lackland and the river walk used to always be flooded with new graduates. Do they still allow that liberty during the pandemic after graduating?

[@AirmanNick]

When I went through basic training it was taken out due to the pandemic unsure if it has been reinstated but if I had to guess right now it would be a no. Eventually it will come back.

[@Agreen-iw6ix]

@@AirmanNick Thanks for the quick reply! I am joining the guard and going TACP. I’ll shipping to BMT later this summer! Thanks for the all info!

[@AirmanNick]

Yes they will also take this at your final out day at meps right before going to BMT!

[@cnote91]

Is beast week 5 or 6?

[@AirmanNick]

We did it our 6th week there. Since bmt is shorter than the average because of the current pandemic.

[@US_Florida]

Can you become marksman certified outside of bmt? Also, what happens if you don't meet requirements for graduation. Do you get more time or you just don't graduate at all?

[@AirmanNick]

Yes you can always shoot again and try to get marksman certified. And depends what requirements for graduation?

[@US_Florida]

@@AirmanNick drill, rank, weapon, pt, uniform, reporting exams pretty much all of it. Like if you don't meet the requirements yet do you get more time before like the final week or not at all?

[@AirmanNick]

@@US_Florida you will a redo on all of those and if u fail it again or multiple times you get washed back two weeks into another flight and eventually will try again but you will pass all of those easily.

[@US_Florida]

@@AirmanNick thank you for the info and answering my questions and sharing these videos, I thought about joining the air force next year in either January or February as one of my last career options and cause I had like 2 options left air force security forces or become an electrician. I'll make sure to subscribe and if I have more questions I know what channel to come to for new info on air force.

@@US_Florida awesome bro sounds good and best of luck deciding on what path to take! Thanks for watching!

[@charmon861]

Do you get tested when you first get there? How do they handle if anyone test positive for covid?

[@AirmanNick]

No you are first placed in a 2 week quarantine process and then tested. If you test positive the entire flight gets delayed sadly and back to quarantine y’all go.

Good question, I do not know off the top of my head but I did put out a video talking about PT at basic military training it’s on the channel, check it out! It will answer all of your questions.

[@ernestosanchez163]

Just Graduated Last week and for the Final P.T test the minimum amount of push ups is 33 and for the sit ups is 42

[@madmanvlogs4957]

i have a question. if you by any chance could answer. would they be doing the PT test before, during, or after bmt? or how would that work?

[@AirmanNick]

MadMan Vlogs I have a PT video out on my channel, you do a PT test at BMT and then eventually will have to be tested for your PT scores again. Either 6 months or 1 year later based on your previous score.
