Phase 1

>I am a Medical Lab Tech in the USAF. That means one of the longest Tech. Schools in the Air Force and the longest in the medical field. We have 13 months of training, the first is 4 months at Sheppard AFB in Wichita Falls Texas. for me it was 5 1/2 months(I got sick and was not in training for a month) GO CQ!!! haha This training is mostly class work and tests. We have 3 phases back at the dorms, phase 1 is about 2 weeks it is where you must be in uniform whenever you are outside(i had this 2 times, Phase back) The 2nd phase is where you can wear civies(civilian clothes) outside of the dorms but to go off base you have to be in your blues(i had this one 3 times) and the 3rd phase is where you do not have a curfew on the weekends, and you can wear civies off base. A phase back is where you do something wrong and the MTL's can put you back a phase. i was phased back from phase 3 to phase 2 and then two days after i hit phase 3 i was phased back to phase 1, then i had to go through the phase up process again. It sucked!! 
>I met a lot of really great people in my phase one including my two best friends Kaitlyn and Natalie. Without them i don't know where i would be.  We didn't become friend until phase 2.

This Phase back thing, does that mean they are testing your endurance as a woman in the AF? It is good to find close friends, they will help you through all the tough times, and help you enjoy the good times.
