Feeling the time slip away
We are back in the states now and working our way towards New London. Time really flys by when road tripping. We are enjoying every moment we can with our cadet before the 28th creeps up on us. See you all soon!
Excellent. I may need a good cover story for watery eyes. As with most dads, any pollen irritations will be due to an overwhelming amount of pride rather than worry.

BM3 Miller,
Sorry it did not work out as soon as you would have liked. Many of us have been following your journey. Good things come to those who wait and especially to those who have your determination. I'd lay money that after nailing prep school, you'll be a lock for the class of 2015.
Great News!! Even though my son got his appointment during EA, I have been lurking on this site mainly to see if your son would get in. How exciting!! Check for a PM.

Did the package of goodies come after receiving the letter confirming the receipt of the acceptance papers or at the same time? Just curious. I'll beg my son for the key chain when it comes. :wink:
Both are great options. The determing factor for my son came down to the missions of both branches. That may be something else for you to study up on and consider which mission best fits your personality.
