So my DS texted me a summary while he was waiting for his plane to come home. These were the takeaway:
-AIM was awesome.
-Out of the four summer SA seminars (SLE, NASS, AFASS, AIM) he attended this summer, AIM was by far the most rigorous but most rewarding.
-AIM solidified his desire to apply to the USCGA and become an officer in the USCG.
-He was told that daily PT was not as tough as previous years, but it was the toughest out of all the SA summer seminars.
-SWAB Wednesday was tough. His legs are still sore from the running. Bear in mind, he's a varsity cross country runner and has been running all spring to train for this. A couple of AIMsters' knees gave out due to all the running and standing at attentioin.
-The First Day, after the Swearing-In Ceremony, he got "yelled at" like he's never been "yelled at" in his life.
-There was an AAR time when he got really great and constructive feedback from the cadre about his performance.
-He was very happy with his PFE score which is a record/official score.
-He was told that they will ramp up the PT for the next session, fyi
