I have a shoulder held gym duffel bag & also a gym backpack. I was wondering which one would be more suitable to carry on I-Day. Thank you Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

That's correct. I knew a guy that was on a rival XC & track school team to my team, and when he got recruited to go to a D1 school, his times were in that range. If I have not forgotten, all of his 800 meter (not relay splits) times were under 1:57. Sent using the Service Academy Forums®...

When I visited the academy a few months ago as a drag, the plebes in the room I was in had dual screen setups. So we'll probably be able to have dual screens. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

I'm a soon to be plebe of USNA class of 2018. For those that have gone through plebe summer, I was wondering how much of a change did you notice in your performance in the IST (initial strength test) compared to your first graded PRT at the end of plebe summer. If possible, you can include...

It's great to have goals of being a senior Air Force officer, but you have to take everything one step at a time so that you won't look down on yourself/performance. Your first goal should be getting to USAFA, so you should put all of your thoughts and efforts to that. Then at USAFA, you should...

That's correct. Looking back at history, you can see that Patton was weak in academics when he first arrived at USMA but he worked hard to improve himself, so he wasn't "born a General". Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

Don't also forget the USNA grads that become Navy officers, then successfully become Naval Special Warfare officers, and take part in various direct fire combat situations and are in combat zones. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

Yes. An example of this would be lieutenant MICHAEL MCGREEVY (rip). He started out as a SWO, then went to BUDs and graduated as an honor man (class 230).

Haha… that statement describes who I am, except I have a 14 inch neck size. It`s very hard for me to buy what I like because It takes time to find 27 inch waist pants in the men’s department.

I am sure that a few pounds will not disqualify you, as some people posted on here. However, if you want to be under 145lbs by the medical exam date (January 20th) just to be sure, you can follow what I`m about to tell you to have a near guaranteed weight loss within a couple or more days. 7-10...

Thanks to everyone who posted on this thread, I am now not worried about the CVW. In about six months from now I will have taken all of the swimming lessons, up to the advanced level, so I should be a decent swimmer by the time I arrive for plebe summer.

I was recently invited to attend a CVW at USNA, from January 23-25. When I was looking at what to bring to this event I noticed that I have to bring swim gear. The problem is, as of right now, my swimming abilities are not up to par. Throughout high school I've been a track & cross country...

I have an LOA and a congressional nomination to USNA so the only thing I have left to do is be medically qualified by Dodmerb. All of my medical records and tests have been received by Dodmerb on 1/7/14. After my files were received by Dodmerb, I emailed the help desk wanting to know if my...

On the back it had an area that said copy to, and had the names of my representative and 2 senators. I just didn't know if I was supposed to personally notify them. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

When I opened my email a few minutes ago, they all notified me that they've received a copy of my LOA. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app
