For someone who recently graduated from BMT Dec 29, 2021. I approve of this video 10000% everything mentioned is spot on and the memory work is definitely going to help alleviate some of the stress you won’t have to go through while at BMT as well as your PT.
As someone who graduated a couple months ago and still in tech school the best advice I can give is that bmt is a mental game. The MTIs will do their job to yell and do everything for discipline but it’s to help you, not to hurt you.
@@tmikkelsen8066 what do you mean volunteer for nothing?? I’m just scared because my recruiter said they’ll try to disqualify me for any little thing. I’m a healthy 17 year old and have never been to the hospital for anything in my life. I just don’t want anything bad to happen.
One of the best things my father taught me was the fives p's (prior preparation prevents poor performance). If you take advantage of the resources and advice available it will make your time at any basic training that much easier. Just noticed just got a new rank here on Airman Vision.
When I went through BMT this past May/June my whole mindset was “be the best you can be- and don’t take what they yell at you as personal attacks.” Those would be the top things I would recommend to anyone going through or about to go through. Also- I think the new reporting statement, even though it seems simple, would trip up A LOT of people since we’ve always been used to the old one 😂 Kyle, when did they change that? 😂 Must’ve been recent. Also- really enjoyed this video. Awesome job!
They started it when I went through in early October. It was a bit difficult at first since I had spent a bunch of time practicing the original so I tripped up a couple of times
I’ve known JC for a while we usually go to the same gym together and he bought a lifting bar from me! He’s a super chill and nice guy I knew he was in the air force but had no idea he was a MTI until fairly recently! That’s awesome!
TSgt. Santos was absolutely the best instructor I ever had and is still my main motivator today! Pushed me harder and made me realize how much I can actually do and not second guess myself. cant wait to be able to thank him in person.
I am an Airman and a soldier, I attended both kinds of training. If you get out of your comfort zone, learning takes place. And the instructor's job is to give you mental and physical skills to survive when it counts.
Hey my MTI ! Technical Sergeant Santos definitely formed/changed me to be the best Airman I can be ! I’m still in Tech school and I still hold on to all the advise he told me. Best MTI by far ! Still waiting for the 6 month after Tech School mark so I can contact him and tell him thank you !
If anyone is going in for Security Forces, I got here to tech school a little over a week ago so I'm able to answer some questions about the early part of tech
@@eddyhunter75 I first talked to my recruiter in May, did MEPS in June, and got called about my job in August. So about 2 months, and then shipped out 2 months later on Oct 19
Great new haircut! You no longer look homeless, but rather like an AF vet! It impresses a good example to young HS kids who want to learn/prep for USAF testing/pre-training. (I didn't see need to re-do the Reporting Statement, but oh well)
I wish I had this video before I joined it would of helped me out a lot. Wish I could’ve waited until all these changes were made I went in the middle of all of this and didn’t have time to prepare physically and I really struggled.
Yeah I know sgt santos I could tell he’s a real stand up guy, or at least he was until I saw another trainee swing a door open and hit his with it on accident. I think you should touch on the fact of what kind of people the mti’s actually are, they’re usually the best of the Air Force and super motivated and dedicated people.
I would recommend if you don't have leadership qualities going into BMT...I would recommend not to volunteer for anything...unless you have to...the downside of not volunteering for anything...you won't see a stripe..when u graduate.
I would just keep in mind that MTI's cannot and will not hurt you and bmt has basically (no pun intended) no effect on your Air Force career whatsoever so don't stress too much on the bs you come across in training.
First y’all March to the chow hall, say chow runners go, you go with a wingman up to the table, look at them and say whatever there rank and name is , trainee____ reports as ordered, flight ___ is prepared to enter the dining facility from the (west, north,east,etc) side. They’ll say seat them or whatever they feel like saying that say, make sure to repeat them so say , seat them yes sergeant thank you sergeant then March back out
I got so pissed when i went to lackland in 19. I went through basic in 01. I heard some trainees, at the shopette, on a weekday, complaining about things. Smh b
Of course, If this video contained everything it would be 4,387,287 hours long. However. we make videos that are focused on a subject or topic. However, if you have more information you would like to add you are more than free to do so in the comments or you can make videos of information you would like to share as well!
@@AirmanVision that was actually a very blue, passive aggressive response. I’m not sure why this video was recommended to me since I only use RU-vid for workout videos, but this was my opinion. There are 4,387,287 videos explaining the same information. Why not open your platforms to discussing things that kids who join out of high school may not have had exposure to. I’ve used my website to discuss things like this as well as racial bias, unprofessional work environments/cultures, etc; Granted, there’s a reason certain content creators wouldn’t have that on the list if they aren’t likely to be exposed to it, so it makes sense. But there are greater barriers to prepare for in any military environment that should be discussed before an incident happens…. That’s all I’m saying.
@@YanaLfiana hmmm… 3 subscribers and no videos. I understand what you’re saying, but Kyle has his own focus on what he wants to put out and sticking straight to the point and to the facts that won’t change are working out for him pretty good
@@YanaLfiana hey I mean if you don’t know what you’re talking about then you don’t know what you’re talking about- I can’t help that. But I suggest you learn before telling someone else how to do their job
