Basic Drill Movements for BMT

NOTE: I am aware that my ribbons are indeed backwards. *slams forehead into table* Somehow I must have put them on upside down and never noticed during the 10 hours of preparing my uniform, recording and editing. And I have no idea how I managed to let this slip, as I always take my uniform very seriously. But please enjoy the video!

At BMT you're going to have to drill on a daily basis. This video describes the basic drill movements that you'll use in BMT

I have been watching your videos religiously and you truly are the best on YouTube that I have seen. Thank you for your dedication and your service. I hope that I am accepted and as good as you one day. Thank you again!

From an old Master Sergeant, I gotta say you're the most squared away airman I've seen. Even calling commands is respectable.. I know you're moving along, having seen your other videos. Just make sure you always remember where you came from, take care of others, and maintain your bearing. I've been retired many years, and that has helped me endlessly.

All of your videos have been EXTREMELY helpful to me. You and Kyle Gott are my all time favorite YouTubers Ever, Keep the videos coming!!!

WildBlueYonder, Great job and keep up the effort to promote the Air Force in a positive environment. I am a retired Aircrew Flight Equip. Superintendent with 29 years of service and was a Acting First Sergeant. I am involved with the Civil Air Patrol and I use some of your videos to show to the young cadets that are considering serving in the Air Force on what it is like currently. Keep up the great work and know that your efforts have reflected positively about the Air Force core values of Service before self and are impacting young people into making a decision to serve this great country of ours. I am proud that your my fellow "Airman" blue suiter

0 week-wall locker lock wouldn't budge
1 week- missing blousing strap
2 week- moving leg unnecessarily during fest
4 week- almost blacked out on PT pad, Messing up EC (didn't let him in though), crap shave, and sister flight MTI made me jump when she slammed the door
5 week- simple drill, broke bearing 
8 week- missing PT jacket from BEAST.
Including the instructor change out during 4WOT, I'm still surprised I was never Recycled.

Ahh thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm about to take the asvab in about two weeks and have been looking for videos that teach the commands and things like that, so that I won't go in completely dumbfounded. Your videos are super helpful and I think I now have a feel for how basic is going to be.

Just want to let you know that your videos have helped me prepare for BMT. I am currently in the process of joining and these videos have helped to answer many questions I've had. (and calmed many nerves) So thank you so much man!

This is outstanding. Better than my drill sergeant in basic.

This is one thing it would have been great to have this airman to inform me of these drills in 1962.

[Renram]

I was hoping I'd run into a video like this, I'm indeed a very happy camper now.

[lissayou]

Hello, I just became a freshmen and I am doing JROTC, thank you for teaching people these commands

[eriathdien]

Thank you for this video. I'm teaching English at a Colombian Airforce Base and, being a civilian, it's difficult to find interesting activities for my students. I'm going to use this video in class and I know they're going to love it.

[oldjaguar]

You would make a great MTI, you have a commanding voice when you give the orders.

[marciem]

Great video. I already knew how to do these moves I had AFJROTC and then graduated BMT as an E-3/A1C in 1985....Keep up the good work

[cassieamaya]

Thank you for this! I'm trying to use my time wisely while stuck at home.

[acrazysheepdog]

Finally! Someone did their ribbons right. No one puts the national defense ribbon after the training ribbon. Just saying, and this video gave me great info for AFJROTC and the actual Air Force, thanks for reading.

[cynthiaward]

Great tutorial. I was practicing while I was watching.

[Hollowkillz]

You always have great detail in your videos, thanks for all the helpful tips!

[jmob]

This is the best instructional video I've seen this was great. Definitely helpful.
