Congratulations Blade you are making a wise choice the Air Force is a great way of life.  I've been in the Air Force for almost a year now and its been one of the best years of my life.  You are going to meet some people in the military that are going to be flat out asses but don't let that get you down because there's always ten nice people for every ass hole, there will always be someone there to help yeah when you really need it in the Air Force were like a big family.  Hears the only three things you need to know about BMT at Lackland.  
1.) Don't speak in less asked a question by a

Forgot another question... When you're in Pipeline Housing how long do you stay there before moving to the Permanent Housing?

Pipeline?  This is how it works BMT you will live in open bays, then at tec school well most of them will be dormitorys not open bays where you will share a room with 2 or three people with a bathroom that is connected with the room next to it, when you get to your 1st base if your not marred you will move into the dorms on base(that is what my pic's are of) if you are really lucky you can get a room with your own bathroom like me ;D or as a even better plus your own bathroom with a really big room( I have a small room but its bigger than a dorm room at any college)...  Enjoy this is half of what the AF is known for...
