I think it was one of the most rewarding things I've ever done and now I'm over a major hurdle towards becoming a 2d Lt. Just two more years until I get my butterbars and my Z! I know that there's a good number of USAF people on the forum, so does anyone have any advice for a brand new POC?

Wow, they have FTX at Maxwell now?? I went to Lackland back and it was for 6 hellish weeks in hot summer...and I was a prior lol. My advices are:

- Listen to your SNCOs and enlisted. Please do not have this I am an "O" and u need to obey me even though I have no experience in this field attitude. They will make or break u!
- Find your Flt CC or higher and learn about your organization from the top down, (big picture to your role)
- Be proactive, don't wait for your boss to find you something to do.
- Take a chance to do Exec...I know it blows..but....you do an outstanding job (at GP/WG level and above) you will have a Col/BG pull.
- Play GOLF!
- Be friendly to your enlisted..but understand, but know when you need to be stern. <--especially hard for me being a prior!

There are a lot of more, but I'd rather not fill up long pages of advices. You have any questions, feel free to ask me or PM
