BMT Air Force bootcamp 2009

A short video of my journey to and through basic training for the Air Force at Lackland AFB TX.

Boot camp was a very rewarding experience but it also wasn't a trip to the park. AirForce bmt has really stepped it up physically, mentally and they focus on war tactics and self aid buddy care..
If anyone has any questions on the new 8.5 week program let me know, especially if any females have any questions... I someone would have given me some pointers BEFORE i went!

To the people who are shipping out soon:

1) learn your chain of command!! know who all the important people are in the air force like chief of staff, secretary etc...

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
----------------------------- ----------- -------------------------------
Q: how often do you get to eat?
A:3 times per day. When you first get there, you will eat breakfast chow at like 05:45, lunch 10:30 or so, then dinner chow is always around 1700.

Q: Gas chamber?
A:Its tolerable.. but the worst part of it, is JUST BEFORE you go in.. the anticipation KILLS YOU!! lol... It takes a minute to really set in though, you take off your mask..and youre like.."this isnt so bad..wow... then BAM!!! it hits you like a brick.. and your eyes feel like they're burning out of your face... its hard to open them, but if you shut them, you have to stay longer. Have you ever dealt with pepper spray or mase? I have, its VERY similar... Theres nothing I can really compare it to... I guess in the slightest way, its kinda like when onions make your eyes burn..but 90% worse, because it burns your skin too.

Q: Calling and writing home:
A:You might get maybe.. 3 chances to call home.. but they are VERY short lived, because most of the stupid pay phones are broken, and there are like 50 of you trying to make a call home in 30 mins.. on 6 pay phones... Our T.I didnt let us write many letters.. I got to write my first letter home after 30 days!.. then after that.. they only give you like 5 minutes.. to READ, and WRITE.. so.. there is hardly anytime.. that sucked big time...But you just may get more time that I did... it all depends ...

Q: Showering: sorry.. its bad news. Try cramming 25+ girls under 6 shower heads... haha.. (you shower 1 bay at a time) 2 bays 40 to 50 total.
I hated shower time.. you get like 3 mins to wash and clean everything.. and you are always bumping buts, or boobs with the next girl... TIP FOR FEMALES: Dont wash your hair every day. Leave it up in your sock bun, if you have long hair. You dont hair the TIME to do it. Youll see
