Yes, those items will be on the list you will get in the Appointee Packet. You have lots of paperwork to go yet, and you will receive all info needed to Report. However I will caution you with the perspective of a current Doolie, take what they tell you, and not much else if anything. Keep it...

This is the 2nd son of 3 son's the family has lost. DS didn't know him, but as a fellow 2018'er it hits home. The Cadets and the family's are pulling together to hold each other up. To date the focus was on BCT survival, academic survival, and so far this semester survival till Recognition...

My son's fitness was high going into BCT, but it didn't feel like it at the start. No matter you're level it's still terribly hard, they push till it gets hard enough to suit them, the Cadre! They're in the business of pushing, not making it comfortable. Altitude is the wild card, and takes...

What you received it what is most likely found in their Recruitment file available to the public on the football website. The Coaches cannot contact you overtly unless you are a certain age and grade and time of year other than Recruit Info form. They will not compromise that. But, by filling...

An addl take on the Blue Chip v Recruited IC athlete. It has been said to me that a Blue Chip athlete in certain sports, or maybe most, falls within the group of Recruits that the Head Coach gives the Golden Ticket into the Academy, all Admissions requirements met. The non-Blue Chip athletes...

Is it praying they reference really?

I don't think it a profit-thing as much as a funding support-thing in these times. At least I'd hope as much as I'll be one paying it also, albeit gladly to see my DS in the Cadet Section with his new friends living it up.

I kept waiting for a question to a C4C. Guess this was what the young folks call a 'speech'. I always like to hear/read/see youth interact with youth. I call that the good old days and something fond to remember from my halcyon days.

What about the Colonel's and General Officers, getting to them also?

I'll retract my qualifier and add that the Stat doesn't indicate if athletics is the only demographic that I can see. Might be also include something else. My DS was told in person, with me standing right there, that a 26 was necessary for him, and he was considered a special athlete by all...
