I tried and tried to put a solid story together about my experience at basic in under 20 minutes and couldn’t do it, so here’s our first two-part episode.

I knew it was going to be a challenge, so I did a bit of research and talked to friends who had served before signing the dotted line. Even with that knowledge I came pretty close to failing to learn how to be an Airman because I came very close to thinking my college education made me better than the Airmen around me.
