I began at Lackland AFB in April 1970. Much has changed, but the Form-341 lives on. [grin]. One of my fellow trainees was from San Antonio, and thanks to him, we had dates for our day of town leave. Thanks Tommy.

Congrats to your son 👍😁🇺🇸. Our son graduated in Sept 2017 currently stationed in Germany. Hard seeing them leave but so very proud.

Although this was two years ago, congrats to you and your family. This experience will be with you the rest of your life. The exercise has grown since my graduation in December of 1964. I made a career of the Air Force and retired in May, 1985. Be safe out there.

I never get tired of watching these, I love it. I was there 12/30 for my baby girl. Congratulations Airman I & thank you for being so brave!

Congratulations and thank you for your service

Damn, I would start crying if i heard "America the beautiful" by Ray Charles in person. 😢

Everything is earned! I agree

I graduated from basic training decades ago in December of 1971 . Belated Congratulations Gavin . Hope your doing well in the Air Force & like being an Airman . I wish I could've of had family at my Basic Training Graduation .

I did five (5) weeks at Lackland then they put on a bus at 0600hrs and shipped us off to Tech School, no graduation events in those days. Nice they do it now..

Thanks for the video. My boy is waiting for a date to leave. Just watching this video made me cry a little. Ha Just trying to prepare my heart and mind to be without my son.

So very Proud of you!

Something to be proud of Ron! And he chose wisely, out of all the branches of armed service, the airforce has the prettiest women! Where is he stationed, and what is his job?

This is awesome

This is awesome. My son just graduated last month as well.

Thanks Guys.

Awesome video! I leave for BMT in 2 weeks

John Hill ill be soon there myself, i take meps on march 16 and 17. i hope i pass👍🇺🇸 Good luck to yall during BMT💪 God be with you all and thank you for enlisting👍🇺🇸

Not that it matters. But @ 7:34min it is a strange sight to see a coed flight ✈️ 🤔 passing in review? Perhaps it was a "one of" formation to showcase some extremely high achievement airmen? Just a thought. Sometimes circumstances dictate such things. I'm proud of these young men and women!

As long as I'm noting odd things, this has absolutely nothing to do with this video 📹 but @8:40min the airmen are taking their oaths of enlistment and the captions were playing and the text was really funny and not a word was what they said! Once again thank 🙏 all of you for your service!

I saw my brother and my dad and my brother is in and I expect to grow up in the air force

I leave in 3 days o.o

You join after meeting certain requirements, not everyone is qualified, and not everyone can make it through the basic training.

a anybody can make it thru air force basic training....

Thomas Myers not everyone, just because “you think it’s easy” doesn’t mean it’s easy for everyone especially if they haven’t been prepared
