Answer:
U.S Air Force boot camp is called BMT, "summer camp," and a few other things depending on company. Whatever you call it, get ready for six weeks that will turn you, at the very least, into a well trained and ready Airman. By graduation, you'll meet the fitness requirements that make airmen physically durable in almost any situation.
Prior to reporting for duty, you should begin your training at home. Following a recommended workout schedule, 3-5 times per week for at least the six weeks before you attend BMT will help you get ready for the challenges you'll face in basic training and beyond.
Basic Military Training will challenge you physically and mentally. You'll learn to follow instructions, help others and work as a team. You will grow with each success, and you'll gain confidence in your ability to achieve all of your dreams and goals.
On your assigned departure date, you will return to the Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) for a review of your enlistment papers and your physical testing results. You will be sworn into the active-duty Air Force during a special enlistment ceremony.
The Air Force will arrange and pay for your trip to San Antonio, Texas, where you'll be met and transported to Lackland Air Force Base. This is where you will enter Basic Military Training (BMT) and get your first real taste of life as a member of the taste of life as a member of the Air Force.
You will join about 45 other new airmen in a group called a Training Flight. You will meet your Military Training Instructor (MTI) who will take you to your dormitory and help you get settled in. The first few days are spent completing paperwork, receiving equipment and uniforms and gaining a clear understanding of the basic rules everyone follows in the Air Force.
When you arrive at Lackland, you will be referred to as "trainee." Your reporting statement will be, "Sir/Ma'am, Trainee XXXXX, reports as ordered." After completion of the 5th week of training, you will be referred to as "Airman." It's a good idea to rehearse your reporting statement before you arrive. You will be assigned to a "flight," a group of 30-60 trainees within a "Squadron." Each flight will have several TI's assigned to guide the trainees through BMT. The first few days (Zero week) will be spent getting haircuts, issuing equipment and clothing, and explaining the basics of dorm life. Most days begin at 0445 (4:45 a.m.) and end at 2100 (9:00 p.m.). You will receive three meals per day.
