Ep 170: Ones Ready: What's The Day To Day Like In AFSPECWAR?

You asked. And asked. And ASKED- so here you go. The Ones Ready team sits down and tries their best to answer the question we get more than any other question- "What is the day-to-day like in AFSPECWAR?"
Actually, we did you all one better- we looked at the day-to-day in every single phase of your pipeline. From the delayed entry program (DEP) to Basic Military Training (BMT), to the Special Warfare Candidate Course (SWCC), to Assessment and Selection (A&S), pre-dive, the pipeline- all the way through your first unit.
We would like to think that this is the one- the one podcast that deads the whole question- but we know better.

This really put into perspective when people say "the pipeline is just to get you competent enough to work on your teams and when you get to there the training really starts." I just chopped it as "They'll get you up to speed with how the team works." But no, it's how to do the job.

[@OnesReady]

Exactly, well said. - A

[@jarradphillips2218]

Dropped a review on Apple Podcast Ones ready channel. Took a moment to figure out, but got it done.

[@OnesReady]

Thank you!

[@mysterymayhem7020]

Many retired military do Uber Eats and use there base access to deliver. (16:30)

[@Andrade_USA]

For a cross trainee who goes straight into A&S what’s the best way to prepare on those critical skills (setting up pool etc) so that you’re not hindering the team ? Thank you as always ✊🏼 Aaron, the Star-Bangled Banner should of played with that closing note, solid work.

[@OnesReady]

So, you’ll got to SWCC first. And that will prepare you for your A&S role. And the words are appreciated!!! - A

[@Andrade_USA]

I was told no SWCC since I’m on the O side of the house. I’m used to more with less so Full-send regardless lol. Appreciate your time !

[@OnesReady]

@@Andrade_USA Oh ok tracking now; lean on your NCOs and guys/gals that went through SWCC… they’ll get you there.

[@danguilfoyle1736]

I think I’m crying real tears… y’all are funny AF… stop it 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@saggymcsaggerson9033]

Imagine being the uber eats guy just there to deliver food, And a bunch of cadre just smoke you in the dorms.

[@OnesReady]

Best day of his life. -T

@@OnesReady will do just need a contact for you or I can give his number and email to you guys

[@nikog2575]

Would LOVE a developer interview.

[@amadexmilby7309]

So, what you guys are saying is, if the government gives you a credit card don't ever use it. Ok, got it. I'll just pay the loan sharks in Panama city with cold hard cash.

[@OnesReady]

Bold of you to assume you’ll make it to Dive, you should have used San Antonio as your city. Statistically much more likely. -A

[@bixcs2]

Awesome episode. I am not somebody who's asked this cause I always figured the day to day is whatever pursues the mission of the job and that was enough for me. But this episode did get my hyped. The funniest part of the episode had to be when Aaron thought that maybe after this they'll stop getting the question.

[@OnesReady]

A FELLA CAN DREAM CANT HE?!? - A

[@BigDallupinyoface]

Can we please get a creepy clown picture of Trent.

[@OnesReady]

Absolutely. We are on it. - A

[@JuanGarcia-dj2tt]

When is the kev fischetto podcast dropping?

[@OnesReady]

Soon. -A

[@jamminjeff37]

What's a strap hanger?

[@OnesReady]

It’s a colloquialism for people on a plane that aren’t part of the mission, like people catching a ride to another base or something. -A

[@skycat1458]

Have there been any females in the pipeline yet? How have they been doing?

[@OnesReady]

Yep, and none have been selected for any 1Z career fields. One STO graduated earlier this year. -A

[@skycat1458]

So you can graduate, but not get selected? If someone is not selected for a team, where do they go?

[@OnesReady]

Yes. They go to a different job. -A

[@mountaingem6]

That "benign" condition has killed more than 1,000,000 Americans including my high school girlfriend and my college roommate. That same condition put my my 27 y/o daughter w/o comorbidities in the hospital x 6 wks. and killed many of my patients. It had also killed a close family friend who was blind, never left his home and was only exposed to his two children in their 20s who didn't believe in vaccination or wearing masks. Wonder where he got that benign condition???

[@OnesReady]

Sorry that was mean. I just assumed this was trolling because of the absolute ridiculousness of the entire comment. -A

[@mountaingem6]

@@OnesReady A. Ridiculousness of which comment?

[@amadexmilby7309]

This comment probably isn't going to be read by anybody but, eff it. I have two points that I would like to make 1) gain of function research was used unethically to make COVID slightly more dangerous to people that had "comorbidities". However, every new variant became less transmissible and easier on people's immune system. 2) Two just because you're a health professional that doesn't mean because you claim that one solution is better than others, a patient should be obligated to use that one solution. To scare them into it is not the play either. If you cared about your patients, in which case, hopefully you do... I'd say more options for them is better, right?

[@Nathan.Velasquez]

Lol yeah. Getting OC’ed sucks 🥲.

[@OnesReady]

Hahah OC’ed. nice. - A
