Lackland Air Force Base, located in San Antonio, Texas is part of Joint Base San Antonio and functions as the primary entry point for enlisted members of the United States Air Force. It is the only location where Air Force Basic Military Training is conducted. Each year, thousands of recruits pass through a demanding training program lasting approximately seven and a half weeks, at the conclusion of which they earn the title of Airman. Many graduates remain at Lackland to continue into follow-on technical training in career fields such as cybersecurity, medical specialties, security forces, and other Air Force occupations.
