Back in the 80's at tech school we could do almost anything and go anywhere we wanted as long as we made class.

[@danmilosevich]

Went through 76 to 77. Same. No curfew, no nothing. Make formation is all and any detail. Rooms so different then and now.

[@cm1133]

In 1988, at Lowry AFB, we couldn’t leave base for the first two weeks. After those two weeks, we could do anything we wanted as long as we made morning formation. Getting caught drunk by CQ was a pretty big deal. Whatever you did, you never wanted to get a DUI (on base or off). A DUI would seriously fuck up your military career.

[@JosephDZaks]

1969. I stayed in WW2 open barracks at Keesler. No off base for weeks after arriving. We walked everywhere. Weekly inspections. Fallout every morning. KP rotation. 2nd stripe after about 18 months. 3rd after 30-36. Pay was like 300 a month. I see Msgt stripes on 25 year olds. Life sucked. You guys have it great. Enjoy.

[@itsamandanaomi]

I swore into MEPS April 17th and I received my job (Cyber Systems Operations) and my shipping date (July 25th). I am super pumped and I can't wait. Please keep the videos coming!

[@jammedfinga]

Ny'Jael Pearsall that's the job I'm looking into.. do you have any tips on the asvab? What did you have trouble with? How do they score the asvab for that specific job?

[@itsamandanaomi]

jammedfinga yes I do! If you go to my channel I have a video talking about the ASVAB. Also you would have to score a 64 on the general aptitude area of the ASVAB.

[@JustLipSyncin]

Ny'Jael Pearsall Were shipping out on the same day!! Just thought I'd mention that :)

[@MrBadoo]

Good Luck! I went in as a Comp/Net/Comm/Crypto/BlahBlah Blah in 2001. Basically you own my afsc and I really hope you kick some ass! Basic isn't fun, but worth it Tech is worse, so just graduate and go home Iraq (or deployment) is really an eye opener Family and being an NCO is what we suffer for.

[@Unknown-yq4dh]

Ny'Jael Pearsall Is that a good job, or do you regret it and/or wish you picked something else?

[@avirussell3499]

Congratulations! You are going to absolutely love this Job!!!! I started way back when we were mainframes but it evolved into your Job now and it is the Best Job! Translated to civilian too but Promotions are good, college courses on base to pursue - CCAF then Bachelors and then Masters! You cannot get cheap classes like this ever on the outside and the travel is the best in the Air Force. New Orleans is close and Florida good weekend get away too! No reason to hang around the dorms once you get to get out some!

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

Was stationed at the Marine Detachment there from January 1998 to March 1999. That place was like manna from heaven compared to most USMC facilities. So funny that all the airmen would shit on it. Wonderful place and so much awesome stuff in Biloxi nearby.

[@anthonynelson2167]

I got to thinkin' about my experience in the Air Force and tech school came to mind. Found your video on here. Been 30 years for me. Glad you threw this up for viewing. Interesting gettin' your perspective on the BMT and Tech School experience. Brings back a lot of memories for me, man. Crazy how some things do not change. Hope you're enjoying your active duty tour. Thanks for sharing. ✌

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Thanks for the reply! I appreciate it hope all is well.

[@achillesheel175]

leaving for basic in 3 days and will be going to Keesler for admin school. so excited!

[@Garbanzo884]

I stayed at Keesler in '78-'79 and the barracks in those days were pie hole cockroach filled cinder block molded concrete ceiling hell holes. You got it easy!

[@danmilosevich]

Right? Was there 1976. From like May to December. Communal showers/latrine. Was 2 to a room. Damn palmetto bugs and cockroaches. These dorms now are like wow...

[@Garbanzo884]

@@danmilosevich unbelievable. All that money spent to spruce up the place and give tons of classes on political correctness. Too bad AF Comms are the worst when they were the best 40 years ago.

[@BrynjaLives]

Thanks for the preview. My husband arrives there this coming Monday.

[@richardrump4926]

I was stationed at Keesler AFB in 1967 and my dorm was in the "Triangle" and it sure didn't look like this. Did not have a bathroom in the room. We had one central bathroom for each floor. The dorms look really nice. The USAF has come a long way. They still have 341's. That is one thing that hasn't changed....

[@rafting11]

When I was at Keesler, after arrival everyone had to stay in a holding barracks until a class was available, had to fall out every morning to be assigned to a detail. After a month was sent to Triangle area and assigned to a room, there was KP assigned for a week. Then we marched across the flight line to class.

[@jondia4002]

Thanks for the video. It was great to see what has changed at Keesler. I went through Keesler in Jul 80 - Aug 80. We didn't have phases back then. There was in-processing squadron/dorms and once you moved to your assigned squadron/dorm you could were civvies and go off base. I came back to Keesler in Aug 82 as permanent party. One interesting story I have from back then is I was walking in the old triangle and this NCO comes up to me, yelling, and wants a 341. I kept my mouth shut and just pulled out my phase (?) card (they had them in 82) and asked him if he understood what the color of my card meant. He shut up real quick. Back when I went through Keesler, straight from BMT, we had through streets in front of the dorms, not marching pads. We had communal showers. We had wooden wall lockers with drawers at the bottom. No carpet. My how things have changed! I was checking your titles of your other videos and saw your AFSC. Funny story... my first AFSC was 702x0 (admin clerk). When I came up for retraining I retrained to computer operator (511x0) because I didn't want to be an admin clerk. The AFSC for computer operator changed over the years. Here is the funny part. When they merged AFSCs back a few years back they merged admin clerk with computer operator! Which, by the way, is what I would be if I hadn't retired in 2000. Have you mentioned what your assignment after Keesler is? Mine was RAF Lakenheath, UK. Good luck to you and thanks for the great videos. p.s. I hope you don't mind stories from an old timer but watching your videos (and others) bring back lots of memories.

[@Sk8Gnarley]

No problem! its great to hear about how much has changed how how blessed we now compared to then. That crazy about Admin Clerk we have been learning a bit about the merger in class. I don't have my assignment yet we are so curious as to what it is.

[@jasonwenzel3386]

Yeah, the dorms didn't change much from yours, Jon Dia, when I was there July 92-April 93 (Comm/Nav was a loooooong tech school). CJ's, tile floors (which had to be polished every week). They look great now. Much more comfortable and livable. Thanks for the little trip down memory lane at Keesler, Sk8. Good video

[@kenengland3700]

Keesler, 1980. Wow the dorms have changed. We had a community bathroom. The rooms had 2 bunks, plywood cabinets with padlocks on them and green tiled floors. No locks on your room door. That's almost like a hotel room.

[@dman9405]

Yep. Went thru there in 1984, Went to Jones Hall. Dorm was at the head of the triangle

[@LB-ty6ks]

I did my tech school at Greenville AFB, Miss in 1963. That base has long been closed. Our dorm (barracks) was a large open bay. One bath/shower room. Definitely old school, but have good memories of the place.

[@aprylhunter2274]

Hi, i am always on youtube watching diff ppl BMT and AF videos. Welcome back. Listening to you BMT experience bring back memeories. I miss tech school the most, you have you serious days and you have your fun, relax and hang out days. I went through BMT June 2016 and tech school August 2016. One piece of advise for ppl leaving for BMT between now and Sept, beware of San Antonio summer HEAT!!!!!!! If you are from the North like myself you will have to adjust quick.

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Yes this is true water water water, I saw way to many people pass out at bmt, it wasn't even summer yet and when we got there in February we were sweating like pigs from the heat

[@joshthompson2865]

cool, I'm at keesler, in the development flight awaiting bmt 😂. keesler is really nice

[@JRMcDowell]

Congrats on Graduation and being sent to Advance Training.. Good Luck Airman! I was watching due to my son going into the Air Force or Space Force they are duel enlisting him. You info was helpful. So Thank you.

This video is about a year old by now and i've been out of there for a while! I enjoyed Keesler looking back a lot of good memories.

[@Timbodadon]

@@Sk8Gnarley wow so where are you & what are you doing now if u don't mind me asking?

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Timothy Fisher now I’m at my assigned duty station Scott AFB and I do the job (3d0x2) I was at tech school for! Im not gonna get into it here but I have videos about my job!

[@daveriggle7729]

this is like a hotel room. damn, nothing like when i went through in 86. we had bunks and four to five to one bathroom.

[@KevinInPhoenix]

I was at Keesler in the fall of '76. My biggest shock was my first breakfast there when I was asked how I wanted my eggs. In BMT we had no choices and had to eat what we were served. There were no 341's after BMT and we had freedom of dress and movement from the first day. The Airman's Club was a major source of entertainment with live bands and all the drinking you could afford. Back then the drinking age was 18 on all bases and smoking was allowed anywhere. We had no required PT after BMT and our time was our own after duty hours. I never had a curfew during my 1976-1980 tour of duty. Modern military life seems much more luxurious with respect to housing but much more monastic in other respects.

[@UltimusEvil]

o good old 341's , i remember the day in the school house when they took like 3 of them in less than 10 mins....we used to keep the 341 on our beds though in 2002-2003

[@Sk8Gnarley]

UltimusEvil i cant wait to toss this baggie and never look back

[@bradderousse3440]

Good call on the coffee setup. I, too, appreciate good quality small batch roasted coffee. I got into coffee in college and really got into it in the past few years. I also make coffee for my dad so I'm still using a coffee pot, but as soon as I move back into an apartment on my own again, I'll be investing in a pour over setup as well. I'm big on light roasts and brewing with a Hario V60 brewer. Also big on having a good grinder. I hear a good burr grinder is best. Looks like you've got a good setup.

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Thanks man I appreciate it! Its not often you find other people who have a crazy love for real coffee!

[@bradderousse3440]

Sk8Gnarley I know what you mean. Ha. It's good stuff.

[@unplugged301]

congrats! i ship out may 2nd

[@Sterba70]

That looks just like my Barksdale AFB dorm room in 1989

[@roadscholar9323]

If you want a faster stream of water from the sink faucet, unscrew the screen cap, and remove or bore a hole in the screen. Works better. Consider yourself lucky. You have it easy there. When I was stationed at Keesler (90250 Med Service Specialist, '73-'75) we lived in the WW2 barracks on 2nd Street, and had a community bathroom. As dorm chief, I either assigned someone to clean the barracks (most of the time) or did it myself because someone (usually on a Saturday or Sunday morning) forgot to do it, and the daily Inspection Team (do you still have those?) would call me at my duty station and ream my backside about a dirty floor or shower stall, etc. Then I'd ream out the airman who forgot, or if he was my buddy, we'd do the cleaning together, while being armed with lots of Jax or Pearl or Budweiser beer. :}

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Sounds hard but fun! Its nothing like that anymore haha

[@anthonyfoutch3152]

I was in a barracks at Eglin in 73 and I woke up at 4 AM with smoke in the room. I got up and pulled the fire alarm. I went next door with CQ and kicked the door down and my neighbor was passed out with a empty 5th of jack in one hand and a lit cigarette in other hand with flames 4 ft high on his bed. I sprayed him with extinguisher and he got up and tried to punch me but I ducked. He got in lots of trouble.Out of the whole barracks only the CQ got up when I pulled the fire alarm.

How long into tech school at keesler before you could go off base?

[@Nightbiird]

I will be at Keesler for 7 months this September, and I was curious if they have WiFi there or if you have to buy a plan or something. Also, what is the process like for buying stuff online and having it shipped to the base, or receiving packages from your family. Thanks.

[@Sk8Gnarley]

They have wifi its 50 bucks a month for the good internet I get about 30 up and 30 down and 3 devices, It connected straight to the dorm you'll see when you get here. You get a po box here and they just ship the stuff to you and you get a little slip and just pick it up its easy, dont stress to much you will be briefed so many times!

[@Sk8Gnarley]

When you are off duty yes you can be in your dorm. When you are on duty you have to ask an MTL if its okay to go to grab something or whatever you need to do. But on weekends and stuff I mean yeah that's where you live lol

[@zenues]

I'm a Marine and I'm going to Kessler AFB as a 6842 metoc forecaster, will I have a dorm like that or do we get segregated?

[@Sk8Gnarley]

When I was there (and I'm pretty sure its still like this) you and the navy share a dorm in the triangle, its right across from the gym you'll see when you get there. I think it looks just like these, idk how many people they pack into the rooms but the dorm buildings are all the same. Good luck over there

[@JoeyP322]

Already swore in at MEPS under the junior program. Senior in HS now. Anyone with info on “Radio Frequency (RF) Transmission Systems” - start basic in early September 2020... when do you normally find out your first duty station assignment? How are the classes at tech school ? Thanks!

[@HassanMatan]

I’m in tech school right now for rf trans. And you find out your first duty station when you finish the first block of Jones hall. Which is the second school house you go to BUT, it’s going to change for you because a lot of the course is outdated and is being cut out. Classes are from 6:45 to 3:45. And 8:15 to 3:45 for pt days. Classes in the first school house is powerpoints and some labs. I’m going to be in tech school for 6 months but you’ll be here for far less than me.

[@JoeyP322]

Thank you so much for the info and your feedback... that is for my son. I enlisted in the Air Force back when Reagan was president lol - looking back I’m telling you now, the Air Force opened up a lot of doors for me after I got out... Smartest move you’ll ever make. Thank you for your service and stay safe.

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Good luck! You find out where you get stationed sometime in tech school, just depends on your situation.

[@cm1133]

In 1989, at Lowry AFB in Aurora Colorado, we had 3 people to a room. All three of us had different school shifts. I never got a good night of sleep. We had communal bathrooms and showers. Refrigerators and microwaves were not in the room. If you wanted anything to eat, you either had pizza delivered or went to the Chow Hall (DFAC). We had inspections every day because two dumb ass airmen on my floor were caught distributing LSD. That truly sucked. Denver was a great town though. I had a great time going snow boarding every weekend. Snow boarding was just getting started back then. If you leave active duty, join the Air Guard. Do your remaining time to get your retirement. You will thank yourself when you start receiving pension payments.

[@dominicculmoni6987]

How did you do with no coffee at bmt? Nervous for that...

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Its fine theres to much going on anyways, if you end up at Alcatraz we had coffee it was just the matter of are you willing to get some because the rule is no carbonated drinks or caffeine but after one of us took the L and attempted we found out the Ti's didnt really care and then we all started getting some. Mind you the bmt coffee taste like hot water its better than nothing, and when you are on kp (kitchen patrol) you get to drink coffee all day essentially. Couple headaches the first couple days but if you start leaning off it before you go that last week youll be fine

[@xokiki233]

Can you go out and buy a laptop when you get to tech school

[@pchangrak]

First congrats for your graduation. I got few questions if you don't mind. Thanks in advance. 1. do we get the bag pack initiative at the first night there? 2. From your experience what were the things that I should really bring and what were the things you brought but didn't needed it for the bmt? 3. Can the family bring stuff for the tech school during the graduation week? 4. Did the MTI let you call your family the day you got there?

[@williammartin8963]

Hey Passang Dolma I was at BMT with Sk8Gnarley I'll try and help you with these questions in case he doesn't see your message! 1. Yes, you do get the back pack and the items but I suggest bringing a few things of your own such as shaving supplies, shower shoes (black rubber 5 dollar ones at walmart) and spandex underwear for PT. 2. Do not bring a whole bunch of clothes maybe 2 pairs of jeans a collard shirt and a t shirt and some gym shorts to sleep in. you will get your uniform very soon. BRING YOUR OWN GOOD PAIR OF RUNNING SHOES. I suggest the Nike Flyknits. best shoes for PT thats what I had or you'll end up with the BMT asics shoes which were terrible. Bring a decent BLACK watch. 3. No they can not. they have to ship it to you upon arrival at your tech school nothing will be allowed from the outside world even after basic. Wait until tech school. 4. You will get a phone call stating you arrived at the San Antonio Airport and thats that. You may receive a phone call the 3rd day for like 3 minutes at BMT saying your address and you are okay, after that no phone for 2 months. Hope That Helps!

Hey I'm from MS where Kessler is

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Nice! Its not to bad here actually

[@oceangarnette5860]

when are you able to go to a barber shop and get a fresh line

[@Sk8Gnarley]

The only time you have to be bald is at bmt. You get 3 hair cuts there. After that you can start growing your hair out again but obviously it has to be up to par with military standard which you can find in AFI 36-2903, just google that. I might make a video about hair in the future if you are interested.

[@Sk8Gnarley]

Nice you will be right here back at home that is awesome! Good luck!

[@roadscholar9323]

Congrats on joining the best branch of the military service, the US Air Force. Good to hear you're getting stationed in your home town. I was at Keesler 1973-1975 at the Medical Center as a medic. Different place back then! I was from California when I arrived at New Orleans airport, but a couple of guys (airmen) from Keesler saw me and gave me a lift, and a beer to boot. I had a fellow airman I worked with, Rafael Landraneux (sp?) who volunteered USAF/medic, and got stationed in Biloxi. He was from New Orleans. Needless to say we'd take Ray ANYWHERE he wanted to go! It was great having a local guy show us both NO and Baton Rouge.

[@enriquepenanieto3569]

[@Sk8Gnarley]

There are bars and whatever else is off base.

I just want a base that doesnt have a roomate

[@Jodywithawhy]

Heavenly Angel the tech schools all have a roommate. But when you make it to your final duty location, you’ll get your own room. Unless you go to certain overseas locations.

[@cindyknows9220]

[@jahstar92jackson20]

[@jrhockey5550]

[@ari-zhanelynch693]

@jrhockey55 how did you go about losing your weight ?

[@rickylopez3511]

Ari-zhane Lynch It is a lot easier than you think, caloric deficit and a simple cardio/weight training program and you're set. For food, eat reasonably, if you want faster results eat as healthy as possible. There are plenty of resources, showing the what you should be eating. For cardio, you only have to run 2 or 3 days a week for like 30 minutes at a time. For weightlifting start light, reps over weight. Weightlifting seems scary but is very simple and easy if you're focusing on your form. Plenty of videos on workouts. Weight training is a big deal when it comes to healthy weight loss. More muscles = better metabolism and an easier time trimming the fat. Good luck
