Anyone watching this should know that each tech school is different. I just graduated security forces tech school on 14 March and it was 4 months in phase one for everyone. No going off base, no civilian clothes, no fast food on weekdays, Formation, details, and GI party(cleaning) every single night. We were smoked BMT style regularly, couldn’t have our phone during the day, and couldn’t have personal vehicles. It was basically BMT 2.0. However, not all tech schools are like this, and Security forces tech school has gotten worse over time. No matter what tech school you go to, no matter how bad or good, it will end and that’s all that matters!

[@AirmanVision]

Thanks for the update about Security Forces. I've pinned this comment so others can see it as well 👍🏼

[@brian72999]

How is it going so far now that you're out of tech school? Is it what you expected? Considering doing Security Forces as well.

[@jdavis6053]

Oh man. Where was your base?

[@victorcruz-olan2707]

That’s awful

[@lordwhatshisname3408]

I went through in 2016 and it was not as strict for us. The first couple weeks we could not leave base and had to be in at least PT gear off duty hours. Afterwards, depending on how your team performed all together, your MTI would place you into a different phase. Also, I was put into ITP, I believe its called, for failed room inspections so I personally was not allowed to leave at all through most of Tech School and needed room inspections every MON, WED, and FRI. Everybody's experience in the military is always going to be different.

Hey McKenna and Kyle. Thank you for the all the info. I watch your videos to keep ready and up to date on this new experience will be. I leave on April 19th and I'm looking forward to it.

[@EobardThawne-bk8jo]

I been watching your/these videos for a while. I’m leaving for BMT in a month or so, and I just was the Air Force BMT Prep Guide. At the end of it I was like YOOO I know that girl I watch her on KZbin!!! Glad y’all got together and been together for a long as you have. Congratulations and thanks for the information from both of you. Keep up the terrific work😊

[@ProjectWink]

Why does hearing you say "my uniform" give me the biggest smile. So silly, but it makes me so happy 😭😭😭😍

nice that your weekends are so relaxed.

While I was at Keesler Air Force Base, my fellow airmen and I waited a month before tech school, and we were on AFI (Awaiting Further Instruction) until the start of tech school. While on AFI status, we airmen were available for details and such. The base warehouse always needed warm bodies, but me and another airman got lucky. Squadron laundromat duty! And our hours were at night. And we in the 3392nd Student Squadron were off on weekends, we just had to be back in the dorm by Sunday night 2100 hours, after which the dorm was locked. Didn’t have to worry about the Student Training Advisors breathing down our necks on the weekends. The base chaplain ran a coffeehouse-type facility on Friday and Saturday nights, with free movies, popcorn and soft drinks, and I would go there once in a while. Where the coffeehouse was located was in the Triangle, which was where the students including yours truly lived. And among the movies I saw were FANTASTIC VOYAGE and DUEL. Also in the Triangle was a credit union, post office, shoppette, movie theater, and an Airman’s Club (I never went there). On the weekends I could be found at the Edgewater Mall in beautiful downtown Biloxi, Mississippi. One of the movies I saw at the mall was THE CONCORDE: AIRPORT ‘79, a corny flick if ever there was one. I also saw ALIEN while at Keesler, and if you and Kyle haven’t seen this 1979 thriller the both of you are in for a treat. Get ready for some scares. That’s been my recollection.

YAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS! Im going through security clearance this week and hopefully off to BMT and paralegal tech school. Loved seeing a fellow GK lady.

[@DeepPoeticSociety]

How do you go about traveling? Like do you take a bus, buy a vehicle, etc?

[@MannyVegaNieves]

This is putting a lot of people at ease. Thank you Makenna

[@k3h7d8u2]

Hey you should check out Patapsco State Park before you move out.

[@susanmcknight5738]

If I have family within driving distance (2.5 hrs), how often do they approve people to be able to go for an entire weekend? I’d love to be able to go home and see my family on weekends.

[@MsDeelio]

What time are you released on Fridays and what time are you required to return?

[@niyatv2115]

Did you join with college credits? I thought I saw a video that said you had some but when I went to look for it I couldn’t find it

[@jeremiahhaines5689]

can you dip in tech school

[@daustinrichards]

Thank you for the video. Can you talk about RAP too?

[@AirmanVision]

not sure if i'll be doing a video on RAP yet, but is a simple process. Reach out to your recruiter to ask, you sign a form, the recruiter signs it and then your MTL's at tech school sign it for approval

Can someone answer this question for me if you do security forces can you transition out to a different job completely later on that’s not SF?

[@notyourmomma7663]

Yeah once you're almost done with your contract. You can cross train into a different job . Das if you want to re enlist

Do they have a good sized gym you can workout at during tech school on base?

[@AirmanVision]

each base will be different, the one for us wasn't that great

[@photoshopusercudenve]

i know you recently went to BMT, but are we 100% sure they have implemented the new fitness standards, where the running part gives you more time, etc etc. thanks

[@poyo2800]

The mile and a half run for males under 25 is 13:35. Push ups is 32 minimum, and sit ups is 42, you will have one minute to complete each. Good luck if joining, basic is entertaining.

[@heyimreck]

did you go active duty or reserve? im trying to decide which one i want to go into

[@MegaMijit]

do guard/reserve if youre 20 or younger and/or have no travel experience. if you're already making over $50k interested in making more, then bet on yourself and go guard. a bird in the hand vs 2 in the bush. happy to answer any other questions you have

[@AirmanVision]

I am active duty

Does this start immediately or do you have to wait a certain amount of time before you can have visitors? Husband leaves for BMT April 12th.

[@greysheep54]

It depends on the tech school, and what phase of tech school he is in. (1, 2, or 3) She has a video explaining more about it, but basically it will just depend on the tech school. More than likely you’ll be able to see him regularly.

[@AirmanVision]

KZbin videos take hours to edit. We don't shoot a video and post it the next day. We forecast videos out so we post once a week. Makenna graduated Tech School 2 weeks ago. However we still have information she shot in Tech School that we are posting each week. Our KZbin videos aren't livestreams or instagram stories. They are not in real time.
