To fully maximize training effectiveness and space utilization to mitigate COVID-19, the U.S. Air Force Basic Military Training will accelerate BMT from eight and a half weeks to seven weeks. This will allow BMT to restructure and enhance social-distancing requirements across the training campus to ensure the safety and security not just for trainees, but for Military Training Instructors, other active-duty members, civilians and contractors that support the BMT mission.
