Current cadets:
The Inprocessing packet says that Appointees should bring running shoes and a pair of cleats (soccer style) to the Academy on June 25. At last week's Orientation, Appointees were told they would be issued running shoes (there was no mention of cleats). Appointees who purchased two pairs of boots at Orientation were told to wear one pair and carry the other to Inprocessing-- so it didn't sound like they even need/should bring a pair of running shoes and definitely didn't sound like they should go buy a new pair to break in before Inprocessing. We'd appreciate your thoughts, suggestions.
