AIR FORCE TECH SCHOOL DORM TOUR (PHASE 3) | GOODFELLOW AFB

[@D_Castillo793]

Looks like all this has been upgraded since I was there in 2007... good for you guys 👍🏽

[@lucasm7177]

Like seriously beats the hell out of staying at the marine/navy squadron that we called the love boat at keesler and having to go to T Shift Classes at night...

[@haileylandis239]

It’s also kind of creepy sleeping in front of the mirror. Imagine waking up and your reflection scares you

[@AirmanNick]

Haha yeah it was a bit weird not gonna lie

[@Mustang6971]

I just graduated BMT on Thursday now I'm a Sheppard for awhile, this is great information to have I might hit phase 3 before I graduate

[@luiscastilla3553]

Really appreciate content my tech school is going to be In Goodfellow thank you for the information

[@AirmanNick]

You’re welcome, happy the videos are helping out!

[@ChampNike]

Been on and off with the idea of joining. Def enjoy watching your videos and getting an inside look at Air Force life.

[@AirmanNick]

Thanks for watching!!

[@nadial3238]

I literally ship out next Tuesday I’m so excited! Also this video and the video where you explained the phases were very helpful. Thanks!

[@AirmanNick]

Awesome best of luck, glad the vids helped out!

[@dr.bright1342]

For a person like me, it looks like you live in a Mansion. Be very grateful for what you have.

[@bethsojourner6798]

Boy have things changed since the 70's! Goodfellow was not an ATC base, it was part of security service, a command that no longer exists. There was no marching to class, no formations, it was show up for class and pass dorm inspections. Oh, yeah, there was a commander's call once a month. The entire 6 months I was in the same dorm, 2 people per room, 6 rooms per unit with a dayroom and bath. There's a lot more amenities now, but I did play racquet ball.

[@mdmarko]

Same here. Was also at Goodbuddy during the first tour when it was a USAFSS base. Very laid back, we were treated like adults. Lived in a 2-man room in one of the old dorms. I liked it. Came back a few years later, now under ATC, but lived in the Visiting Officers' Quarters during school. Very nice. The last PCS tour at Goodfellow, lived off base.

[@bethsojourner6798]

@@mdmarko The old dorm? Like in the WWll wooden dorms that had a burn estimate of around 90 seconds? Yes, it sounds very much as if trainees are treated like children.

[@senddeee1451]

I’ll be leaving for basic pretty soon

[@AirmanNick]

Good luck! 💪🏽

[@NBHRaven]

Your videos are solid man. I’m still in the weight loss phase before I can start paperwork but I’m getting there. Super excited to enlist.

[@EPICGAMER-xb7xl]

im on my way of weight loss too hows it going

[@NBHRaven]

@@EPICGAMER-xb7xl I was 10 pounds away by end of 2020. Had life happen so I have to start over again. 40 pounds to go. 🙃

[@EPICGAMER-xb7xl]

@@NBHRaven im back on the gring same thing happened to me last year i was around 200 im 6.2 btw and i wa ready and everything and then life like u said, but now im 217 and im grinding every day to do this. i believe you got this too u can do it maybe we will enlist same time 😂

[@NBHRaven]

@@EPICGAMER-xb7xl maybe so! Though 40 pounds is a lot! I’m also looking into the ROTC route.

[@TipCounter4You]

Just an FYI for all of you watching; this is a Goodfellow AFB thing, not an AF tech school thing. If you go to Sheppard or Keesler, (most of you will) phase 3 isnt a thing. Its split between ITP and ATP. The only major difference between the phases is wearing civilian clothes off duty and on the weekends. You dont get different dorms or your own room at ANY point during tech school.

[@angelofdeath0203]

Great content, anxiously awaiting my BMT leave date November 10th!

[@OzemiGN]

U leave the 10th too lmao

[@angelofdeath0203]

@@OzemiGN yep, anxiety is really high because of how close the date is

[@HeavyReign12]

How was it, friend? I leave February 16th, and I'm pretty nervous, but in a way not really? It's like I've stressed so much that now I'm just like, "fuck it" haha

[@jayjon3s194]

i saw that protein, is there a gym on base? i'm supposed to be leaving for bmt in a few months and this is the least amount of muscle i've had in years, so im tryna build it back up when I can.

[@AirmanNick]

Hey Jay, there is actually 2 gyms on my base open right now a really nice big inside gym just re opened and then there’s an outside gym.

[@jayjon3s194]

oh cool my sister went thru this before corona and they had a gym and everything but i didnt know the situation with it due to covid. thank you

[@5HoH5520]

Yes, they have gyms. Ramstein south side ghetto gym. Good times.

[@acorn_tree6545]

amazing content but i found it funny how you said they even gave us a ceiling fan

[@joemilleriv]

Can you do a video on weekend life at tech school?

[@AirmanNick]

Yes I have been thinking about it, but because of the pandemic there’s isn’t a bunch of stuff going on but I will see what I can put together.

[@LauderdaleJoeM]

Really nice layout for 4 Airmen, 2 on each side...lot better than early phase housing! My tech school was 1 month, so I never got past Phase 1 at Keesler. What job title are u training for? & which base?

[@AirmanNick]

1N1A only will be in phase 3 housing for about 1.5 months total.

[@LauderdaleJoeM]

@@AirmanNick 1N1X1A - Geospatial Intelligence. cool.

[@jpeart]

This is so cool. Air force well taken care of I see. Do you know if someone coming from active duty to ait would get their own room? Something similar to this would be perfect for me

[@coletrick8748]

The exterior looks identical to Lackland Afb Security Forces tech school dorms. Interior is completely different

[@Ash_Vulpine]

Leaving for BMT tomorrow, currently at the hotel getting myself hyped up

[@AirmanNick]

Awesome!! Best of luck!

[@Ash_Vulpine]

@@AirmanNick thanks man, absolutely love your videos!

[@Pellinore]

I dont know how this ended up in my recommended videos, but here I am watching this sitting in my broken, run down, bug infested shitty barracks, in a room the size of your living room with another roommate. You know what I had to live in at my MOS school? a cockroach infested room with no AC in the NC summer with four other Marines stacked in the same small room. Air Force must be nice, they really take care of their people unlike the USMC. I wish the USMC would follow the example of the Air Force when it comes to living conditions. Your "overall living conditions" are like living in a 5 star hotel compared to other branches, don't ever take what you have for granted.

[@AirmanNick]

Damn that must of been horrible, I was living in another dorm with a roomate and did have 3 to a room at one point but now I moved into this dorm and it’s much nicer lol. Thanks for your story man appreciate it, hopefully the living conditions over there get better or you are able to move off base one day!

[@TheRandomSqueak]

Honestly this is way better than what I had when I went to tech school. I had 2 other people with me (3 people total) in a room made for 2. We had worms in the shower and the water from the sink was yellow. Back in the ol’ shepherd shaft. We had marines in my tech school and they said the barracks in 29 palms were better lol

[@cramerfb]

You must be at camp Lejeune

[@zxch3682]

Did all the things you packed from your first bmt packing video come in handy ? I leave 11/17 still sorta unsure on what to bring.

[@AirmanNick]

Yes everything worked out, everything I ended up not wearing or needing travels with me to tech school

[@nicolaskidd1507]

Do you have any tips on how to land a job while in the dep program?

[@AirmanNick]

It’s easy to land a job in dep, it all depends on how many jobs you are putting on your list. I recommend only putting the jobs you want and not letting the recruiter pressure you into choosing anything.

my flight is in quarantine at lackland rn and a lot of us have questions about tech school. my flight graduates the day before thanksgiving and departs after so we’ll be in tech school before christmas. is goodfellow allowing tech school students to go home over the holidays?

Yes we have something called exodus allowing people to go home for the holidays.

@@AirmanNick how does the process of it work and like are there requirements for it? honestly that’d make a good video explaining it if that helps you explain it better lol

[@khalilleeson4128]

Tomorrow is day #1 studying for my asvab any advice

[@AirmanNick]

I would recommend studying the section you wish to score highest in based on the exact jobs you want, aka general, mechanical, electrical whatever it is you wish to do in the Air Force.

[@angelofdeath0203]

Also, if you score low don't get discouraged. Study study study and if you don't like the score you got I would suggest retaking since that will determine your military career. Just keep in mind they don't keep your highest score, only your most recent.

[@tonycrockett]

Fernando’s class took me from a 35 to a 92. Look him up on Facebook. He’s from Puerto Rico and he’s legit

[@Nick-bo3yq]

Tony Crockett Hi how long did it take you to study to get that score?

[@tonycrockett]

@@Nick-bo3yq I studied for 6 months in Fernandos class. It’s possible to study in 2 but since I had taken the test twice already I had to wait 6 months cause I wanted to go Air Force. My background with the Asvab was I got a 54 on the High School written version. Then took the CAT-Asvab at Meps and got a 45. Studied again and got a 35. Then studied in that class and got a 92 and qualified for all the jobs in the Air Force. Still glory to God for that score
