Talk:Airman basic

All Airmen are "Basic" in basic training?
Should the article mention that all airmen, even those that have stripes coming due to their enlistment contract, are ABs during Basic and do not put on their ranks until after graduation? Kelly hi! 00:40, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Mayhaps, but I didn't have any reliable sourcing for that available during my initial writing binge. I'll keep it in mind for data to look for when I work on expanding the article.  —   pd_THOR  undefined | 16:57, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
