    BCT T-Shirt Size

    The shirts are very large. Shorts, however, are very small. My recommendation for PC shorts is to get the largest size available unless you like having shorts mid-way up your thigh or higher. Mine started off at an alright length but it feels as if they shrink every time I wash them, and...

    Ask a Cadet Anything

    No, you don't get to submit preferences for ops. Yes, USAFA will foot your bill for CSLIP.

    I have no clue, but I'm not particularly happy that they are taking away several days of thanksgiving break to have it... FF

    Homeschool to Cadet: Was the process difficult?

    Hello! I wasn't technically "home schooled," but I did all of my schooling at home starting in the 8th grade (it was an online public charter school). The key thing is that you are going to have to push yourself to show that your curriculum and other activities have prepared you for the...

    2017 Recognition

    Perhaps that was a poor choice of words- obviously it's not THE end goal, but it was definitely the end of a trial by fire (and pushups!). :smile:

    2017 Recognition

    I concur. My body is so beat up and sore right now, but having those prop and wings pinned on was a feeling like no other. Don't lose sight of the end goal 2018.

    USAFA Questions

    Hi there, 1. You need to graduate near the top of your class. I don't know that there are any specific requirements beyond that but I would think that a biology major with a pre-med track (I think there is a track for pre-med) would be helpful. 2. I can't really help you hear. 3. I...

    NMMI

    You can learn good life skills at home, and millions of people have been quite alright adjusting to college without needing to use their senior year of high school to prepare for how to live without their family. Why, specifically, do you want to spend your last year at NMMI? If it is just...

    GoPro and Airmanship

    I was referring to the academy's course, but I take it from your tone that the answer is going to be no.

    GoPro and Airmanship

    Does anyone happen to know, if I have a GoPro and do jump this summer, would I be allowed to wear the GoPro while jumping or is that forbidden? I've seen the Wings of Blue wearing cameras when jumping into the football games but I don't know if it's allowed for AM-490. Thanks! FF

    C4C AMA: Ask me anything!

    Yes, there is a minimum weight requirement (I know because I was .4 lbs. from busting it when I weighed in). I also met or exceeded all of the averages on the CFA. What they did for people who couldn't afford to lose weight during BCT was they gave them supplements (Boost) in order to help...

    Mandatory Boxing

    This year the first lesson was only bag work, every other lesson featured working and boxing against cadets. I, for one, did not like that class at all but I did gain an appreciation for boxing as a sport which I never had before.

    Government shutdown is over.

    Firsties will likely have to wait until at least the end of the month because most of the people who determine the AFSCs were civilians who will need to catch up on their work and make sure everything is ready to go before the jobs can be sent out.

    C4C AMA: Ask me anything!

    For me personally, there were two hardest parts. One was the first week of BCT and that inital period of shock and adjustment, the second was the first time on the Assault Course.

    Checklist before BCT

    That's the address I have been using. I keep getting this bounced back at me: "Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups: 10mdg.sgoma@us.af.mil The recipient's mailbox is full and can't accept messages now. Please try resending this message later, or contact the recipient directly."

    Checklist before BCT

    Has anybody else been having trouble sending the immunization forms to the email? I made sure to use the .mil ending at the bottom of the page, but I keep getting the message that the email can't be accepted because the mailbox is full. When I tried to call I was told the whole office is shut...
