When I was in the USAF (76-80) there was not much emphasis on PT. We only had to qualify with a timed run once per year. The modern military seems to be more of a monastic life. We could purchase and consume alcohol on base at 18, smoking was not discourage, and homosexuality was a court-martial and dischargeable offence. Now there is no drinking under 21, smoking is virtually forbidden, and homosexuality is permitted. Strange times.

@thelifewithkev
2 жыл бұрын
Hey man, thanks for watching! To answer your question, yes there are times when the Air Force/military life feels lonely. You leave your home town family and friends, and you and the friends you make when you first get in often go your separate ways because of different assignments. It can be tiring, always having to fork new friends, and it can be hard to tell who is temporary and in your life to stay. For this, I would say don’t give up on forming those relationships. Find those people that you connect with, and enjoy all of your time together, no matter how short or long you know it will be. You may end up living in different places, but those friendships will always last if they’re real. Some of my best buddies live on the other side of the planet. For everyday life, keep putting yourself out there. Get involved, put yourself in places to meet new people, whether it’s a class, a trip, or just starting a conversation in your shop. You never who you will meet, and what opportunities can come from it. Hope this helps.

@thelifewithkev
2 жыл бұрын
Hey, man. Thanks for your support💪🏽. For me, I like what I do, and the adventure brings, and the people I’ve met have made the Air Force a great experience for me. For you, the benefits are definitely there. Especially if you use your degree to commission as an officer. The technical and leadership skills you gain are definitely up there. Will you be a minority? The AF is about 15% black. The Army is about 29% for comparison. I used to ask myself the same question before I came in: “Does a black man belong in the military?” I see it like this: My race is who I am, you see it as soon as I walk through the door. You will remember me because I carry myself with confidence and will always look to excel at whatever I’m doing. I know there’s another kid looking to follow whatever path I carve. I want them to know to know that they belong wherever they know they can succeed. Yes, this country hasn’t had the best history with our people, including veterans of color, but the longer I’ve been in and met different people, the more I’ve realized that were all on the same team. Yes, the military is run by a government that once considered us less than a person, but this is still my country too. My people, my family back home, just like everyone else’s family, calls this country home. Though I pray for peace, I will always be willing to do my part to keep my family, and everyone else’s around me, safe. Also, now that I’m here, I figure at some point I can see firsthand where these issues come from, and will find the opportunity to improve them. I can never complain about a situation if I’m not looking for the solution. I hope this answers your question and helps with your decision. If your thinking about it, I’d say keep doing your research, if you keep finding things thsy interest you, give it a chance. I think you’ll be surprised when you see how many different opportunities it can really bring. I talk about all of this in my first video: “Why I Joined the Military in 2021”. If you check it out, let me know that you think. Take care bro.

Yes, Sec+ is required for all cyber fields now, including RF. I’m still pretty sure it’s not a part of our tech school yet. Since it’s still a pretty new requirement, all of us having been getting it once we got to our duty station. For preparing for tech school, I would say just go in ready to learn. The information isn’t too hard, but if you master it, you’ll set yourself ahead and it’ll help you at your first base, just from remembering radio/satcom theory. For Preparing for Sec +, check out my “How I Passed Sec+” video👇🏽. Get involved in the squadron, it’s a great way to get leadership experiment and meet ew people.

Id also recommend examcompass.com for practice tests, and listening to the “Cyber Wire Daily” and “Darknet Diaries” podcasts. They’ll help you get familiar with a lot of lingo and with the cyber security field in general, plus they’re interesting. It’s a very detailed test, so I think taking the time to start learning about things early will give you a huge advantage. I’ll make a video about how the test went for me for you guys. I take the test next month.

Hey, cable and antenna systems is pretty similar to what I do as an RF or SATCOM technician. Telecommunications is a big field, dealing with how we communication using using satellites, radio waves or cable for television, internet, 5G service, and lots of other things. There are plenty of jobs out there for this field. Of course, starting out enlisted, you will be on more of the maintenance side of the equipment, but you’ll learn the fundamentals and hardware behind worldwide communications, which translate well into a lot of other tech or IT fields. A lot of the guys in my job go to school for computer science, cybersecurity, or IT management. There’s countless jobs out there for these fields. I would just keep doing more research if you’re into these kinds of things. Hope this helps.

I noticed the guys have a beard. I’m joining the Airforce Reserve. Is it okay to have a beard as long as it’s low? Secondly, how long is tech school for cybersecurity?
@thelifewithkev

After basic, if your able to show the doctor that you have any kind of shaving bumps, you can get a shaving waiver, and keep a short beard. Tech school for cyber surety should usually be about 3 months long.

You will get to put your top bases you want to go to on your “Dreamsheet” that you’ll make at the end of basic, but the Air Force will still put you where they need you most. They will work your way down your preferred list to find an opening that needs to be filled. I would start looking at what job you’ll have and where you can be stationed to have an idea of where you’d like to go. I actually just filled a video with some of my friends that will help you out with this. I hope to have it up by the end of this week.

Can I be a tower climber in rf transmissions? Can I also apply for cct after receiving a job after BMT and accepting my job whatever it may be if it can’t be rf transmission???
@thelifewithkev
Жыл бұрын
Yes, tower climbing is a part of RF, my shop is actually getting certified againin a few months. It isn’t at every base though, if you were base Comm, you are more likely to be climbing towers that expeditionary units. You can cross train into CCT or any other job, but not immediately after BMT. The Air Force has invested money in you once you have accepted a job, so there is a 3 year time in service requirement to cross train. For special warfare, including CCT, the time requirement is 2 years in the Air Force. You would just have to decide if you would like to go straight into CCT, or wait a couple years after being in the AF.

@@iguzzlehenny616 No problem bro, I completely understand. Yes there is a minimum ASVAB score for RF, specifically in the electronics section. Check out this link foreverwingman.com/career_fields/3d1x3-rf-transmission-systems/. The AFSC is outdated, but the content should still be the same. If you check out my video “How to Choose Your Job in the AF” I talk about this process a bit more there too.

It depends on the job. Some career fields such as maintenance or security forces, or any jobs with 24/7 ops will have weekend shifts. If you don’t work this type of job, you’ll usually have weekends off, or at least days off throughout the week to make up for it.
