Well, I'm taking a cue from Riddller and doing a blog about IFS (and hopefully UPT). I know he put a lot of great information in his so i'll try to do the same. Hopefully I'll be adding a different perspective on things.

So far, everything Riddller has in his opening remarks of his IFS blog holds true...i'll find out for sure when I get there. Also, my supervisor and a Major in my squadron have been trying to help prepare me for this by imitating standup EPs...I am given a situation and I have to bring it to a logical conclusion. Even in a non-stressful environment in my squadron, these are extremely tough. Not trying to discourage anyone, but I can just imagine how it will be at IFS and UPT.

My buddy and I are driving up there in two days and are staying in Colorado Springs for the night so we can be ready to hit the ground running. I'll admit, driving with my buddy may not end up so well in the end as one of us may go home quicker than the other, but i'm really not worried about it. I'll get reimbursed either way!

About me: I spent 6 years in the Marine Corps as a KC-130 flight mechanic...basically a flying crew chief. Went through part of USMC OCS and decided that the best thing for and my family was to join the Air Force. So, I enrolled in ROTC and commissioned this past December. So far, it's been a great decision.

I am going to try to post as much information as I possibly can to help out the guys and gals after me, so if there is anything that anyone wants to know, ask and i'll try to provide some answers!

Talk to you guys in a couple days when I get there!

Please keep the blog going as you can. I have been following Riddller's blog since I stumble upon it a couple months ago. By the way what unit are you with?

I too have been following his blog, awesome stuff! Like I said, i'll be posting as much as I can...Riddller's blog was invaluable when studying for IFS and to know how things went on there and I hope mine will be as good as his is.

I have been following it too... J/J....... not really. I love all your blogs, but Riddler is the true IFS/UPT blogging pioneer, but he could always use a sidekick.

Yeah, he has left big shoes to fill, but it's all pretty much the same information, just from different perspectives.
