Transitioning from a civilian to an Airman can be an interesting experience, to say the least. Learning to make your bed, fold your shirts, dress, and shower how the Air Force wants you to all while saying "why the hell am I doing it this way"?!. The Ones Ready team will discuss their personal experiences all while discussing the hilarity of the transition and what they learned when they entered. This one also got a little deeper than we initially expected and which could give you some insight into what Special Warfare and the Air Force, in general, is like. You'll laugh, you'll cry, but you're probably be saying WTF even more so!
