I graduated 8 months ago, MSgt Linder wasn’t my flight MTI. if sergeant Linder told me to do a doble backflip I would’ve attempted to do it.

Went through Air Force BMT in "83" Being the chow runner was the worst job one could have. In my flight the chow runner was a really short dude with size 9 feet and size 12 boots (reminded me of Snuffy Smith). When the TI called "chow runner go!" All we heard was "flopp flopp flopp" as he marched to the door. Nobody could hold back the laughter even the TI's. This is permanently ingrained in my mind even to this day. If I feel that I need a little chuckle all I do is think "chow runner go".

Hey, USAF Vet here too! Went through BMT in 2006. Chow Runner was definitely the worst job in Basic. I was INSANELY thankful I didn't have to be it. I was 'Hallway Crew Chief'. As far as the 'Detail' assignments go, that one was a cake!

That is none other than, at the time, MSgt Ceracano (sara-saun-o). He was my Section Supervisor when I went through in 2010. This was conducted at the 321st, the PREDATORS! I saw a glimpse MSgt Manuel, my MTI, in there as well. I remember TSgt Linder (the “trainee”) challenging everyone to push-ups. The only time I’ve ever seen 100 perfect push-ups pumped out in under a minute. Impressive stuff!! I’m actually back at BMT now to push some flights myself. Sgt Linder, thanks for the memories!

This is not "Old School" one bit. I went through Basic Training almost 30 years ago. And I don't even call my self "Old School" Our MTI's smoked us and rode us all day, but it wasn't as rough as the crews before us.

Is he freaking crying? I went through Navy boot camp in 1992. My company commanders would have consumed him.

As someone who went through and graduated BMT in 2017, I can promise you that USAF MTIs can and will fucking destroy you if given the opportunity. God help you if you do something like failing to bring black socks the day you and your flight get fitted for dress blues or losing your canteen cap during BEAST week. Just because it's not USMC or Army basic doesn't mean that these dudes won't make your life a living hell if you fuck up badly enough.
