I'm Back... Basic Training was easy, waiting for tech school classes t

It really was... I mean they tell you everything you have to do, every little step... how can people find basic hard? I just don't understand... All I did for 6 1/2 weeks was what I was told to do, nothing more or less, and I made honor grad... if that's what it takes to get it, anyone who enters BMT is capable of getting it, yet you have people getting recycled for stupid stuff, like breaking into civilian luggage for their cellphones and junk like that... what is wrong with some people?

 

Anyways.... now that my mini-rant is over, how's everyone doing? It looks like I missed a few things, I'll have to check out this DIY-Street Store, and catch up on some reading... All I have down here is my wife's laptop so I won't be doing much "playing" for the time being, it'll have to wait for my first duty assignment.

 

I'm here at Lackland still for tech school, I start next week. Should graduate around mid January from here... and I'll be in Michigan for Christmas with my wife and her family. I put down Guam, Yakota Japan, Okinawa, Aviano Italy, Kaiserslautern Germany and Hawaii as my dream sheet... Guam because it'd cover my remote assignment, and I can take my wife with me, plus they do a good job of getting you one of your top two choices for your next assignment.

 

Well, just stopped by to say hi, I'll catch up reading at the library cause I'm paying a lot for this time I'm spending here in the mini-mall ^^

 

by the way, any of you in the Air Force that went to BMT at the 326th TRS?

Hmmm was there in 1977 and can't remember the flights number.

 

Will have to dig up my book from back then.

 

Why does you location say Germany when the last I looked Lackland was in Texas?

Yeah, some people have no self control. Be good and the Lt shud let you at that . any way :tooth:

lol, the squadrons change every few years, some come and go so probably those squadrons aren't around anymore...

 

I still live in germany, I'm just down here for training. I actually just found out today that I'm headed to Japan for my first assignment. That was my first choice, so I lucked out! I'll update my location when I'm somewhere on a more permanent basis.

 

Haha congrats on the easy trip. Glad you had fun (you did right?)

 

I did have fun, quite a bit of fun actually (not expected!)

 

So you lucked out of Tech Training at Keesler AFB.

 

How were the Birth Control glasses during Basic?

 

lol, I didn't have to wear them, wish i had a pair though, they're hot, lol

 

Yeah, Tech's at Lackland for all the logistics stuff...

 

WB AUS, and good luck.

 

Thanks Reel! I'm glad to be back, even if it is just on and off til I get to Japan. Okinawa here I come!

Welcome back AUS!

Your knowledge and your helpfulness were missed by all.

 

Japan is a great place! Lucky Dog!

Thank God you weren't sent to Iraq.

 

So glad Basic went well for you.

I remember our first smoke break.

Everyone smoked a cigarette in about a minute and we were all dizzy as hale :)

They don't let cigarettes anywhere near Basic or tech school anymore...

 

Security Forces are still trained here too... I actually enlisted from Ramstein ...
