Graduated college and I’m finally enlisting at 24! I’ve been wanting to join since high school but I wanted to get my degree over with first!

[@AirmanNick]

Awesome you going down the enlisted path or officer?

[@iEatMunsters]

Airman Nick enlisting for now, I want to get out of my hometown and go for another degree or a masters degree. Hopefully the enlisted route isn’t as terrible as people make it seem like In other branches.

[@MannyGonzalezDigital]

Excellent story man! Congrats for thinking outside the box and taking action. I enlisted for 4 years in the Air Force, now trying to join the AF Reserve or Air National Guard after a 13 years break. Best of luck!

[@vincentcuneo2]

Decided to join at 25. Free college and travel and benefits. To hard to pass up. Leaving in April

[@phxmaster9684]

I have really started looking into military after covid closed up everything up but can’t decide on a branch and the parents aren’t the biggest fans, I decided I’d give college a try but it’s just not fun with all the restrictions and I hate school to begin with so I’m strongly considering changing it up and leaving college to go military

[@AirmanNick]

Your parents will come around too it, If you were to join the military you could hustle and knock out college on the side and based on whatever job you are assaigned you can receive college credits in training for it to get you started.

[@phxmaster9684]

@@AirmanNick yeah doesn’t the Air Force give you an associates degree for your training through CC of the Air Force?

[@AirmanNick]

@@phxmaster9684 yes which is pretty sweet and there’s other educational benefits you can take advantage of

[@phxmaster9684]

@@AirmanNick That is what has intrigued me to lean Air Force (that and Luke AFB is near my home here in Arizona and I've visited it a few times as a child)

[@catanazman]

I’m past a year at my community college right now. I’m trying to finish up 45 college credits to enlist as an E3! I’m 19 bouta be 20 and hearing your story really made me feel not so alone during this time in my life. Thanks for sharing.

[@AirmanNick]

That’s awesome I’m happy you were able to connect, best of luck on your journey!

I am 31 and went to talk to my recruiter at 29. I need to still lose a bit of weight (have been so far and am almost to my goal) and get more physically fit.

[@AirmanNick]

Awesome keep on striving towards your goals!

[@Nathan_Lara]

I just turned 21 and plan on enlisting for all the reasons you stated. This is only the 2nd video I've watched of yours but of everything I've heard the thing I'm most scared of is having to pee while people stare at me😂😂

[@isaacrodriguez1975]

Great vid bro, I want to join the Air Force as well I’m going to meps next week😬 I’ve actually already done emt school and a firefighter academy in my town so I’m hoping on getting fire protection lol. Thanks for the meps vids they’re really helpful keep up the good work:)

[@AirmanNick]

Appreciate it Isaac, i'm sure you can get fire protection it was on my job list as an option and seems to be a popular job in demand at the moment! Please Like & Subscribe for more videos on the way!!

[@nightslasher6928]

I've thought about joining the military. thought of going army since my buddies went army. parents arnt supportive of me going. my mom wants me to go to AF. I'm kinda in the same situation with being in a small town. friends are pretty much all gone or getting married, I've finish high school in 2016. finished trade school in 2018 and been jumping job to job since 2019-20 and every time i think about going to a recruiter i get anxiety from the fact of not going cause of family

[@AirmanNick]

That’s a tough situation at the end of the day just gotta do what you think is gonna be a better future for you, I went Air Force because I knew I would get my bachelors degree in here, save money and have a great career when I got out based on the job I chose when enlisting. If you really wanna join and think it’s best for you talk to your fam and see what they have to say. Give it some big thought because it’s a huge step.

[@soiceygang6649]

I enlisted at 22 but turned 23 a couple of months ago

[@AirmanNick]

That’s awesome man!

[@soiceygang6649]

Airman Nick yea I did 3 years of college, got 70 credits but receiving my Associates once I get to my first duty station 🤞🏾

[@AirmanNick]

Not Chris that’s good bro should be E3? Where are you stationed at right now?

[@soiceygang6649]

Airman Nick yes I’ll be coming in E-3 with a 4 year contract & currently in dep right now waiting for a job n ship date. Been waiting for 6 months now but my recruiter told me that they are booking jobs based off length of time in dep so I’ll be hearing some soon

[@AirmanNick]

Not Chris wow that’s awhile! I believe my entire process from start to finish lasted 2 months before getting my ship out date and 4 months all together before actually shipping out! Hopefully you hear something soon! Best of luck 💪🏽

[@Nahknow_]

Hey man just came across your channel and I’ve been debating on enlisting! Was there any advice your uncle’s friend who did 20 years gave you? Any tips on how he managed to be in the Air Force for 20 years?

[@AirmanNick]

Honestly what happened was he knew I was debating on joining the military he brought me down to the base showed me the living conditions and how the day to day Operational Air Force took place and that made me choose the Air Force but all he said about what made him stay in is what any other 20 + year retired vet will say, they had an amazing time met amazing people and traveled the world and just made so many experiences which kept them in. They say it’s a job and everybody needs a job and this one isn’t to bad, my uncles friend only planned on doing 4 years and then fell in love with the military and loves the country.

[@stevejobs3496]

What’s ur military job?

[@scootie3089]

That’s what I’m wondering too
