Things you might like about the Air Force | Elora Jean

[@moonphantisy]

I don’t see your videos as complaining I think they’re pretty helpful. I do think you say cons to which I appreciate a lot because I know you’re being honest and it’s much more helpful than just giving me positives things! Love your videos! Hope you’re recovering well!

[@EloraJean]

Thank you so much! I love to hear your thoughts on how I'm doing. So happy I can be here to help :) I'm doing great btw! Still blurry vision lol but normal otherwise.

[@fabiolaescarsega1997]

I just want to find myself.

[@MerrickVisuals]

Joined in 2016. Definitely has more pros than cons in my opinion. Stationed in Germany, getting to travel so much, currently deployed in Greece and loving it. I got pretty lucky though.. You've got my dream AFSC, hoping to cross train to photojournalism someday :D

[@navinahilson7537]

[@salvadorsalas533]

What's your afsc

[@jessicaterry2594]

I’m 26 and my next step is going to MEPS. I am so nervous but I am excited about this journey. And I appreciate your channel so much. You cover the entire experience and your goals are the same as mine. I just appreciate you girl. I come away feeling informed and aware. Anything worth having is worth fighting and sacrificing for and I believe this is a sacrifice that has soooooooooo many benefits behind it. Thank you for your service. 🙏🏾💙

[@EloraJean]

I wish you luck on your journey!

[@jessicaterry2594]

Elora Jean thank you ☺️

[@ajattara7243]

My boyfriend is in the air force, currently going through BMT and your videos make me feel a lot better about his career choices, knowing he's gone into a good field. Also fun fact, I came across your channel through watching your AF BMT videos and subbed for those along with your amazing makeup tutorials.

[@Lydia-Roe]

Thank you Elora! You are not a complainer at all. H8ers gonna h8 . I am a single momma of 3 boys. I have worked in healthcare for 18 years in admin. I was tired of working and not making a difference, along with the stresses of losing projects or hospitals cutting budgets and instability in the job market. I am going into one of the branches for reserve duty, helping with education and a much needed life-pivot. Your videos are incredibly helpful in dealing with the realities of of military life. Hope you are doing well. Keep the videos coming.

[@sirimartinez2457]

I just started watching your videos and I think they're so helpful. I'm still in High School but I've been think about joining the Air Force for a while now. Hearing a females perspective is so great! And you talking about the pros and the cons really help me decide if I'll do it or not. So keep up the good work, love watching your videos!

[@EloraJean]

I really appreciate your feedback!

[@LagosNancy]

I really want to join but I’m afraid to talk to a recruiter.

[@sierrabrooks11]

Nancy Lagos same!

[@slurfie1234]

asking a girl to grow a sack lol

[@Druetroblox]

Nancy Lagos they want you to join and are friendly. They're people like us. Just be wary and do your research to avoid them pressuring you into a career field you don't want

[@chloencars]

Nancy Lagos recruiter can be scary, mine was at first but if they are it’s to make sure this is something you’re determined for and really want. Once he knows that, y’all are good!!

[@way-of-the-gun]

think big picture and it will help you overcome your fears

[@ariannarios-velazquez8609]

You are my favorite youtuber on advice for the Air Force. You explain things in an honest and positive perspective. I've never seen it as you complaining. If anything your videos have helped prepare me mentally for BMT and the Air Force in general. So thank you very much, and please keep doing what you are doing. I swore into the DEP Program two weeks ago. And everytime I feel anxious about BMT I watch your videos. I hope you are recovering well. Don't push yourself too much. 💙💙💙

[@manddyflowers]

Thank you so much for this video! I’m currently 22 and I’ve done 4 years of college and got nowhere. I’m really considering joining the AF and have been in contact with a recruiter, but I’m so worried about being away from my family. We’re very close and I’ve never been away from them really..so I don’t even know how I’d handle that. And the running part for BMT. Ya girl can’t run. I feel like it’s a great option for me at this point in my life but it’s such a scary decision especially since I’m (a little older? gonna be 23 this year so when I’m out I’ll be 27) where time is such a factor. But anyway, I’ve been watching you religiously bc wow your makeup and wow you’re just an awesome person! 😊

[@angelcastillo3100]

Amanda Escalera do it! If not your just gonna regret it! There is so many benefits and your gonna grow as a person. You have to get out of your comfort zone in order to grow! Most people are scared and afraid and have every excuse in the world. But if You want your life to truly change and be the person you want to be. Do it. There’s an urge in you person for a reason. Act on it!

[@alyssax115]

Agree! I’m in the same exact boat.

[@way-of-the-gun]

i'm not a recruiter but I do know that you can meet the minimum age requirements to become an officer and if you wait longer it will be harder. Like I told another girl here - your fear is only due to the fact that your big picture thinking is overshadowing your big picture rewards. Do it for your future self and you'll not be sorry.

[@MidnightXAlchemy]

You’re well spoken :) ignore the haters

[@sugarplumaliscious]

I’m 18 right, have an associates degree and I want to join the AF. It is my biggest goal in life right now, but I need to lose a few pounds before I can get both my feet in. I can’t wait to see where I am in a year. Also Elora, I love that you mention possible cons. It gives me a more realistic idea of what the AF is like, most people I’ve watched don’t ever mention anything bad.

[@EloraJean]

Thank you for the feedback! I really hope you accomplish what you set out to achieve, you got it! :)

[@sugarplumaliscious]

How?

[@way-of-the-gun]

Rachel Edwards start doing marathon runs and fun runs...get yourself active and motivated to run because you will be running plenty in bootcamp. Find friends that are motivated to work out and help you achieve your weight goals. You have to make some life changes and try your best not to get injured while training.

[@Sheenyhbk]

Rachel Edwards you’re 18 with an associates degree that’s 🧢

[@keandreaanderson3650]

Slimpify the Plugg Not if she completed college courses in high school. Plenty of high schools provide the opportunity to do dual enrollment where you take college and hs courses simultaneously.

[@ashleycalderon7150]

i don’t think you complain, i like how you’re always honest with us, honesty is something i really appreciate. thank you for always giving us these amazing videos 💗

[@YfnK2000]

Can’t wait to join the Air Force... struggling with math and arithmetic sections but working on it.. hoping to get dental assistant, I just started watching u I really love your videos. Thanks a lot

[@macburger5026]

MoneyMan K Go for it bra, the Air Force just has it so much better than the Army, and I say this as someone who's a soldier in the Army.

[@lavaniadelrey2807]

Yfn K did u get in

[@kelseydion4334]

Let's please be honest about the harassment and drama involved with being in the military as a young woman. Why doesn't anyone talk about this? Sidenote, I actually do believe that joining the military is a great "jumping off" point. I joined, got out and got contracted as a civilian. Because of my training (and because I chose a career field that doesn't have very many women) I now earn over 100k a year, get to travel, and do much less work/hours than that what I had to do in the military.

[@EloraJean]

Kelsey Dion I can’t comment on that topic because I nor any of my friends have experienced anything like that.

[@shelbynicole948]

Which career field was that?

[@chloencars]

Kelsey Dion I know that the harassment and drama could be annoying to most and even hurtful to some but I think Respect automatically comes to those who are in the military, ESPECIALLY women because it’s still unexpected. Yes they’re lots of women in the military but still much much more men so when a male veteran or just a regular civilian woman hears that you were in are in or sees it, it’s a great surprise that puts a smile on their face. That’s my opinion. I’m sure they’re is definitely mean people about it but I’ve yet to cross that bridge and when I do I know exactly what to say!

[@kelseydion4334]

I'm speaking on the immense amount of sexual harassment and awful behaviour in the military from men to women that goes unnoticed or ignored. I'm talking about the large amount of rapes or sexual charges that get swept under the rug even to this day. I myself worked as a crew chief in the air force (if you're not familiar that's aircraft mechanic). But much like my career field, many trades have a high ratio of men to women (unless you're medical or personnel) and these instances happen frequently with little to no care to these young women. No mentorship, no support and continuous harassment that causes these women to feel isolated and afraid. If we want to ignore this ugly side that's your prerogative. Just because it didn't happen to you doesn't mean it doesn't happen to others. So if you're not filled in enough to even speak on this a little bit, I don't think your much of an "expert " on what to look out for in the military. bottom line is this is an important subject that shouldn't be ignored. A message to young women thinking of joining the military: watch out for yourselves. Look after your fellow female teammates. Report things you see and don't be afraid to stand up for yourselves. People will try to tear you down the more you become weak so make sure you stand tall and strong. Also, try not to go to a lot of "outside" events with your male co-workers. They get bored and WILL talk about you, even if you are just going out to enjoy your life. This can ruin you, so just stick with the women or find civilian friends to go out with. That's the most I can say.

[@thatonevlogger4949]

Kelsey Dion what do you do now?

[@derrickguerrero7704]

bruh your makeup is so beautiful tffffffffffffff

[@alivebutnotliving7084]

You are very helpful. The whole reason why I got back into the military.

[@MrClassiccountrymusi]

I was stationed at Grand Forks and really enjoyed my time there, although I will say I have never had a bad assignment. Mainly because I have always went someplace with the attitude that I was going to be there awhile and I might as well enjoy it. There is plenty to do there all you have to do is find it. You should have a car by now travel site see. You have missile sites that you can visit, the pyramids up around Langdon, the peace gardens. Do hope that you will enjoy the base. Its mission has changed. I was there when the missile field was active and we had the bomb wing. Thank you for your service.

[@kenyabrown3954]

You can't do anything but appreciate your honesty. With how the world is today, no one gets to experience what it means to be a true, heartfelt individual. I sat here and watched the entire video without reaching for my phone, thinking about what I wanted to eat or anything else. I was locked in because you were truly giving your perspective from a place of love and honesty. I've gone back and forth with idea of the military for almost 7 years. I've gotten my bachelor's and now I teach. I'm currently applying to medical school. The choice to join shouldn't be taken lightly and it shows through how you speak about your own experiences. In all, it can be beneficial no matter what. I really hope your experience in the AF continues to help you grow for the better. You are a beautiful person, inside and out.

[@EloraJean]

Thank you so much for taking the time to write that comment, it really meant a lot to me :) Reading it made me all warm and fuzzy hahaha

[@judyrose6358]

I have never seen your videos as negative complaining in an unprofessional manner. I admire your passion for what you want for yourself and the goals you want for your life. We are all entitled to have our complaining days and the things we need to improve on and things we love and not love about something, etc. You are amazing Elora and I thank you for helping us better understand things!

[@lexipasquale541]

I love your videos. I'm 21 and working a full time job at an animal shelter. I love my job believe me but I'm not happy with where I'm at. I guess I can say I'm looking for something more intense out of life that I can't get as a civilian. I decided to join the Air Force and I'm reaching out to a recruiter. I've watched A LOT of your videos and have gotten a ton of good information. Thank you so much!

[@xSkysplitter777]

I started watching your videos to find out information about the air force but I stayed because of your personality and how BEAUTIFUL you are😍🥰

[@itskaniyaj]

I'm a new subscriber but i really appreciate you for making these videos because before I had no clue what I was going to be in for but now I have a brief understanding even though it's from your point of view I still have an idea of what to expect so thank youuuuu💛

[@kamalgurung2246]

I feel like I need to say this, “don’t worry about other people criticism, I’m very happy about al the info that you’re sharing because I’m considering joining AF, and I’m thankful for you and your personal thoughts”. Keep going 💪👍👏

[@fabiolaescarsega1997]

To me your videos have been great. I am currently 21 and I'm at a time of my life where I want to do something for myself. I have been through some tough times so I think joining would be helpful. I want to find my passion and just make new memories. I want to be more independent.

[@mirandabeckwith5277]

I have always had a feeling that I should join the military since my freshman/sophomore year. I do know that I was struggling back and forth between the Army and Air Force but I feel like your videos and some research have helped me make up my decision. I am 21 right now. I have tried college, I am still at the same job that I had before graduating high school and feel like I haven't done anything with my life whatsoever so I am quite thankful for your videos helping me make my decision to join the military. Thank you so much.

[@danaenielsen6092]

Your videos are REALLY helpful; I ship out August 14th and my sister ships out August 21st. Thank you for answering questions in comments and making these awesome videos. Keep being awesome!

[@samanthacole9191]

I ship out August 14th too!

[@maggiedarnell5261]

I LOVE your videos!! It's so great to see someone give not only the good things, but the bad as well! I also think that you are a great example of how a female service member can be good at what she does while also not losing the feminine side of herself! I have been contemplating joining for awhile, but your videos are really helping!! I can't thank you enough!!

[@shamecalouis]

im curently 18 and done with highschool and plan on joining for 4 years , and after my time is done i would like to go to college and pursue a degree , you think that would be a great idea?

I think that's up to you!

[@anxiouslyupliftingly]

I really appreciate your insight and your channel as a whole :’)

[@jenniferwylde1111]

You are amazing through and through and I have found all of your videos to be so helpful and informative!!! You really care about people and your role. I am currently sitting in my hotel room near MEPS for the Air Force and will be doing my complete physical tomorrow. I'm so nervous but I'm thinking positive. Thank you Elora. ❤

[@kelseyhines7821]

I’m in the process of joining the Canadian airforce . So it’s definitely a different process, but I love how honest you are about YOUR process and feelings. People need to understand that this is your opinion on your life. Most people don’t have the balls to join, their opinions on your life are irrelevant ! Keep doing you girl 😊💕

[@victoria9460]

I'm glad I came across ur yt channel, u def give a different & positive look for the military

[@kickzlive6595]

Im only 14 and after watching this video ive made all my life choices. Thnk you!

[@whoknows4001]

Thank you for your videos, you are great. We all need to know the advantages AND disadvantages so that we know if the military is for us.

I just enlisted at 22 and I’m off to bmt in April! Love your videos!

I’m joining the military and I really appreciate this video! Very helpful in my opinion and I think your videos really take the nerves away about leaving after high school💕

[@sydneyford6248]

You can join at 17 if you finished highschool. It's for the younger teens who graduated that year.

[@clarissar.8788]

Your videos are very helpful! Thank you for the advice and sharing your personal experiences!

[@ezaboladida1849]

I agree with most of the others, I don't think you are complaining. You are sharing your personal experience and providing an insight to the service, which is more than what is currently available out there. BTW that lip color is gorgeous! Mind adding the make you are wearing in this video to the description? Ta

[@shannon4ful]

I’m so obsessed with your AF videos!! I’m from the UK and looking to join RAF, obviously it would be slightly different but very similar field! I would love a video on the fitness aspect of things, that worries me quite a lot but I know it’s something you can work on if you want it hard enough! x

[@EloraJean]

That's super cool! I plan on doing a fitness video pretty soon here:)

[@salvadorsalas533]

The way you deliver all information is very attractive and easy to understand. Your videos are pleasant to watch and listen to. (:

Can you do a video on how it is being in DEP

[@kitgaskins92]

As a single man, I've been trying to go into the military for the past seven years now. In addition to going into the military, the only thing that has stopped me was a big fear of not making a higher score on my ASVAB test. I now have a college degree and was wondering with my college degree can I move up into higher ranks while serving.

[@daniellacardoza780]

i've been thinking about it for a while I'm nervous about the process like how long will it take for me to join also lol so funny watching this video you mentioned you did retail and was a lifeguard so was I and honestly the personal information you gave out helped me when you said you tried college for a year and didn't enjoy it and didn't enjoy the lifeguard job bc it gets boring going back i get that but honestly thanks for the information and i guess advice it really helped me think about things

[@kamilaibragimova8230]

eyyy so am I

[@Krismunguia1996]

These are the reasons why I want to enlist. Now I’m just focusing on getting physically fit for BMT. Question: so after enlisting and such, would it be easy to request time off? I have a concert ticket that was postponed cause of COVID and I don’t want to enlist yet because I don’t want to miss it (hard getting tickets and probably my only chance to see the band).

[@jessicaguerrero8971]

A question that it been in my mind. During ya vacation time, are you allow to travel to any country.? I do have family in another country, I heard that during ya period of ya contract an airmen isn’t allow to travel, not even to another state? Please can you clarify this for me!!

[@EloraJean]

You are absolutely allowed to travel! You can go outside of the United States as well. There are countries or provinces you're not allowed to go to but you can go to like 90% of the world haha.

[@darlenegardner6845]

I’ve always wondered for meals during BMT, can you socialize then with people at your table or no? I feel like there is no down time during BMT so was curious hahhaha

[@EloraJean]

Most definitely NOT lol you can't speak to anyone during meals. You get time to socialize elsewhere don't worry haha

[@mischievousmuffins913]

[@ultronixgrant2434]

Thank you for your videos I have been watching your videos since the year started I am about to go to MEPS.

[@EloraJean]

Ahh that's crazy you've been with me for half a year! Good luck at MEPS!

[@myracarrasquillo7166]

Thank you for this video. I’m currently cutting weight to join. I’ve been thinking about it since I was in high school and now 10+ years later I am in a place in my life that I can do something about it. What is something you suggest that would help me on this new adventure? I have the motivation and drive I’m just scared of failing myself.

[@EloraJean]

The thing I suggest is just ensuring you're considering ALL pros and cons! I think a mistake people make going in is assuming they'll have the best experience, get stationed overseas, have an exciting job, etc. If you go in with a realistic view, I think you will be less likely to be disappointed and more likely to enjoy your time. Especially when you realize it's such a short period of your life if you only sign for four years! Confidence is key!

[@busybody214]

I plan on joining the Army , but I loveeeeee your Air Force videos

[@savannahbambico5171]

So here's the thing; I know I want to join the air force, but when I get out I still wanna get my law degree. My question is would they pay for my college, and what do you think about some one who hates authority figures joining the air force?

[@JLiiFE]

Great video Elora!! I’m really considering joining the USAF. I’m currently 21, got my associates degree, but right now I’m stuck. Not sure what to do now. College is ok, but I don’t believe it’s worth the money. I’m thinking about doing fire protection or a dental assistant. Those two, are things I think I’ll be able to do as a civilian, after active duty service.

[@EloraJean]

That sounds like a pretty good idea to me. A lot of people use the Air Force as an option to get a head start on life, which I think is super smart! Sounds like you have that goin on.

[@karissacallier6726]

I saw your video on your eye surgery that was kind of provided by the AF, did you get the option for laser or do they just offer PRK?

[@EloraJean]

When they do your eye exams they compare LASIK and PRK, and based off of my situation they said PRK would be best for me. It was paid for by the Air Force, yes.

[@StephyMichYT]

Thanks for this video. I'm sure I'll enjoy it! Edit - I definitely enjoyed it & followed you on Instagram ❤

[@ThatQueenBee._.12]

This might be a dumb question but what if you dont have a car? Is there busses on base to get to work?

[@aimeeorozco5072]

Im surprised you didn't talk about the living conditions, I hear from other branches that the Air Force has the best..!

[@KCKarebearr]

People didn’t like you in bmt, and on KZbin.... b/c they are JEALOUS OF YOU! You are pretty, confident, successful, and your personality is strong. When you are this type of person , miserable people will try to bring you down. F them !

[@ThruNatashasEyes]

To get photo journalism in the AF did you have to apply for general admin ? Or how did you even come across that job ? Also I really enjoy your honesty about the AF it’s giving good insight. Complains or not they’re valid and may be useful to someone else.

[@EloraJean]

I applied specifically for photojournalism! I recommend you do the same if you're interested in the position.

[@alexandriareynolds5530]

Hey Elora! I've been watching your videos and find them very enjoyable and informational. Although I am curious about how fast you achieved your rank due to the fact that I would like to have my animal with me ASAP. I know this isn't possible until you live out of the dorms, and to do that you need to be in a higher rank? I'm not in the AF but very interested and I would like to know how you achieved getting an animal as quickly as you did. Thank you and I love everything that you're doing!

[@EloraJean]

I received Senior Airman at my 2.5 year mark, which is about average for people who need to rank up before moving out of the dorms. There are cases where you can move out early due to overcrowded dorms though, or other unusual circumstances. But on average, it takes about three years.

[@caitlynnnisbett4662]

Hi! I'm 18 and recently I've been thinking about joining the military but I was wondering with all of the different branches, how did you choose the air force rather than say the army?

[@allysongaytan1105]

Thank you for all your helpful videos!!!

[@toniamcgovern188]

Do you have any tips on the Asvab and study tips for ways to pass? Also are you able to go to school during active duty and if so how would you be able to accomplish this?

[@EloraJean]

Sooo I personally didn't study for the ASVAB, I took the practice test and was happy enough with the score I received so I was like whatevs lol. And you are able to go to school while active duty, you can totally get an online degree or sometimes even take classes in person that the base or local colleges offer.

[@ashw7961]

I failed my asvab twice :( do you have any tips that you can give me?? 😭😭🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@EloraJean]

If you get the chance to take it again I would recommend seeing the areas you failed or didn't do so well in, and hammer those out with studying! Seeing which parts you were a bit weaker on and strengthening them is probably the best idea. I didn't personally do any studying so I don't have any tips regarding that!

[@stormthelost]

Really considering joining the Air Force but I’m afraid I’ll be away from my 2 year old for a long time. 😩

[@joshuatreetop8025]

your very pleasant to watch. easy watch

[@TPaynecupcakekid]

I LOVE your channel and how honest you are about your thoughts! Keep doing you girl, cuz you've helped me out a lot. I'm going to be graduating with 2 bachelors degrees soon, and have been thinking about doing law school and joining JAG Corps, and it seems like the air force would be the branch I'm most interested in. Do you know anything about what its like doing that and being on base, and if there are any youtubers that talk about it? So far, I can't find anyone. Anyways, thanks so much :)

[@EloraJean]

Hey! I'm super glad you watch my channel and like my stuff :) I'm not sure what it's like being in legal, I do have a friend who works in the Airmen Defense Counsel, which I think is down the same path you'd be interested in. Living on base isn't my preference, especially where I live, but I know it's super convenient for other people! As for other KZbinrs...I don't really know!

[@YouAreStarDust]

I think I said this but I dont remember it seems like it's hard to make you mad

[@fernandoenriquez1504]

How’s school and service like ? I feel like it’s too much stress

[@EloraJean]

I think it depends what base you're at, whether the operations pace is fast or not. At the base I'm at now, I have time to complete school and work. I know friends who really don't have time though.

What’s ur stand on ROTC and going in as an officer. Like pros cons. Things recruiters may leave out. I don’t know how much u know but anything is helpful 😊

[@EloraJean]

I don't know anything about ROTC, but I've heard going in officer is a great idea especially if you have a degree under your belt. From my understanding, officers are typically in a more managerial position or assistant position compared to enlisted individuals, who do the "dirty work." I don't know anything other than that though honestly

[@amber_depewpew7821]

How do u feel about men/women in other branches discriminating the air force bc its "easy" bc I personally hate it and it makes no sense to me at all. Although I do absolutely hate marines so I'm kind of a hypocrite lol

[@EloraJean]

It's annoying to get shit on but at the end of the day none of the branches could operate as efficiently without each other's help. I don't think it's right for you to say you hate one branch for whatever reason, because unless you're in it and understand how it works, you really don't know what you're saying. I think every branch should be appreciated equally.

[@amber_depewpew7821]

Elora Jean agreed it was just planted into my head that way from my childhood bc my dads in the navy and he also hates marines

[@chandrahoutsma1414]

Are there any jobs you would not recommend at the air force?

[@EloraJean]

That's a bit of a hard question, as I'm not the most knowledgeable on every job there is in the Air Force...I've of course heard people complaining about their jobs, and pointing out negative things, but then again who doesn't do that? I think being a finance technician is probably one of the most stressful, because you're working in customer service with people who are coming to you with their problems with you to blame (even though it's not your fault). I have some friends in finance who say they go home miserable every day just because of the people they deal with. Of course, there's high-tempo jobs like air traffic control, which at some bases is probably super stressful. I feel like it really just depends on who you ask! There's something out there for everyone.

Crew chief as a woman. Based on my own experience.

[@Druetroblox]

Chandra Houtsma maintenance jobs (crew chief like above) you will be overworked and it will hurt your body/ security forces

[@way-of-the-gun]

talk to a recruiter about the jobs that are in demand because they usually come with a bonus. I know AGE is pretty popular or medical with the females. Maintenance does not have a lot of females but you can change that if you decided to enter in those fields. I was a former Jet Mechanic with USAF for 6 years and got out 2016 but re-enlisting to cross train into Ammo or Security Forces.
