Experiences at United States Air Force

My current assigment is to manage air crews that are responsible for brining home wounded arriors.

This is an assignment for 365 days of acitve duty service.

Speaking to your local recruiter, passing physical tests/drug tests/mental exams etc.

The three best things about my time in the Air force are easy to think of. The satisfaction I got from working hard and the fact that it did not go unnoticed. Achievements are greatly rewarded both by leadership, and personally. The second thing is the friends. I made the best friends of my life in there. Under difficult situations, people tend to stick together and bond strongly. i love my friends i made in there to this day and we will aways remain close at heart. GREAT TIMES!!!!!!, if you were in the military, you know exactly what i mean..! And third. Plain and simple. The experience itself. By far the best job I could ever have. Great learning experience about both knowledge and my own self. I learned a lot about what i can and cannot do. But, most of all, i had a confidence i could never match anywhere else. I miss it everyday... well, not all of it....haha....

I would say the most challenging part of the job in the Air force would be the fact that The service always comes before self. There are no set hours. I have been on duty for days at a time with little rest. Family comes after service which means holidays can be spent away from loved ones, especially if one or both parents are deployed. That is part of the reason I got out. I just couldn't see leaving my son for 6 months at a time....

My job in the United States Air Force was Security Forces. Also known as Security Police. My job there was more on the Security side, though it caters to security and Law enforcement.
My job was to provide Security for the United States Nuclear Weapon Systems. I held a secret Clearance and helped Maintanence workers gain access to the Nuclear weapons so that they could perform their maintenance Duties. I also provided Surveillance for the area when the alarms were inopperable....

There is no secret. Just the desire to want to put your needs behind your loved ones and all of America. Integrity first, Service before self, and Excellence in all we do. Simple as that. It's the 'easiest" hard job in the world, and One of the most rewarding. Oh and it helps to have a clean background and a Highschool diploma and a positive attitude and willingness to learn. And thick skin......

It is easy to be hired by the Air Force. The challenge comes in being sucessful after joining. It takes leadership skills, integrity, dedication and never exepting anything less than the best to be sucessful.

To become a good leader, you must learn to follow. This was the main principle I learned. You cannot tell anyone to do something you've never done or go anywhere you've never gone.

Having a clean record and wanting to serve and protect your country.
