I know the main topic is the Prep school and I had my say. I checked with a former Naval Admission's officer and my DD's AOL. As much as some of you have made your points on grad school after graduating from the Academy, LineInTheSand is correct. The AFA and Naval Academy do in fact pay for your...

I am so sick of hearing from you non-military pukes who never served in the military! Don't know an MOS from an M-16! Here there is a rumor of closing the USAFA Prep School and your talking about your tax dollars being wasted in this school! I never went to the Prep school, but I worked with...

USAFA10s is right on! My DD is 5'3 with average hands for a girl her size. She started tossing an over sized softball and slowly moved up to a ball a little bigger each time in size. Of course she did not max out on the BB throw, but she improved an awful lot. Its all about balance and mechanics.

Most Club sports (Baseball, Softball, Soccer, track, etc) are sanctioned events. In our state, a Club sport is know as a travel team. Its where you travel around the state or country and play other teams in sanctioned events.

Christcorp, I realize NOW what you mean. My reaction was wrong.

Christcorp, you contradict what you have said in other Threads,

Christcorp, You give bad information. My DD was also allowed to substitute a Chemistry teacher for a math teacher. I question that your an ALO. You want everyone to believe your something special, but you give out false information.

You will have some posters who will question what you say. I have had it done to me. It does get under your skin at times. All in all this class (2017) did well. Its time for care packages and soon to be classes. Good Luck Class of 2017.

Wow, I got my info from someone who was on the Admission board. I guess both of you were on the Admission board too. You seem to question what I was told. Why should anyone else post messages on these boards? You both seem to know everything!

Let me give you a little advice. My daughter is at the USAFA doing her BCT. I know a pilot who once worked for the Naval Academy on the Admissions board. He told me that once they had a person who took the SAT and scored a 2200. While another person scored an 1800. They gave an appointment to...

I was reading on my DD USAFA website for incoming 2017 cadets. There were a few future 2017 CC who stated that they have done none, nothing, zero of the paperwork that USAFA has sent them. They plan on doing it all on in processing day and was wondering if the cadre will be ticked off that they...

I have a question? My DD will be attending the USAFA this June 27th. She is the athletic type, but she had a setback in November and could not exercise for 4 months. This past summer she took her CFA and did 70 pushups, 88 situps , 12 pullups, ran in just over 7 minutes. Due to her setback, She...

When I was at the AFA as an enlisted, we called the the Cadets Sir or Ma'am. They referred to us in the same manner. Of course you have some enlisted idiots who had no respect for the Cadets and Officers as well and showed them no respect. Those are the few, most enlisted are not this way...

I am a new member. My DD will be in the class of 2017. I myself was stationed at the Air Force Academy from 1981-1984 as an enlisted working at Farrish Memorial, the Field House and the Community Center Gym.
