Why This Exists

I remember my graduation day. After months of being pushed past every limit I thought I had, I finally saw my family in the crowd.

But I also remember the trainees who stood at parade rest with no one there. Some families couldn't afford the trip. Others couldn't get the time off. And some just couldn't figure out the logistics of getting to a military base across the country they'd never been to.

I can't make any of that easier.

I can make sure no family misses their Airman's graduation just because the logistics were too confusing.

I come from a military family. One grandfather Air Force, the other Navy, uncles who served, and my mom was Air Force too. I build digital products for a living, right here in San Antonio.

I built BMT Grad Week because BMT is hard enough for your Airman. The week you get to see them shouldn't be hard for you.
