What state and local should be claimed by cadets?

Our cadet is a freshman. Is there anything about the "40 days" mark that would explain why he hasn't called or emailed us since last week? He always makes some kind of contact over the weekend, so this is a first for him.

I know I'm am not alone in my appreciation for Christcorp's excellent contribution to this forum. He helped my son during the application process as he is helping the class of 2014 these days. My son is less than a week away from Acceptance Day and he is really bummed out. He doesn't feel like...

Our cadet was on bed rest (after isolation) until today. Does that mean he did not march out of Jack's Valley with his squad?

Well, we got the call yesterday from our son that he is in isolation with flu symptoms. He was ordered to the medical tent because of pink-eye, then sent on the hill due to a fever of 103. He called my wife and she asked if he had any prayer requests (beyond the obvious). He said to pray that he...

Any news on how field day went? Such as which squad won?

We were pleasantly surprised yesterday with a phone call from our basic. :thumb: At first, I was like, "oh no.. he's gonna tell us that he's washed out for whatever reason" but it was only to fill in some blanks on the security form. I am positive we filled it out completely. Does this mean...

How many cadets take advantage of the "spiritual opportunities" offered at the Academy? Is it usually a choice between that and studying?

I found this article: http://www2.afsoc.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123013177 The most striking thing about the training is that if you wash out, your Air Force career is over.

How does BCT compare with the enlisted version?

I see a pattern in the past 2 weeks of a flurry of new appointments posted here from Thu-Sat. I assume the next 3 days are do or die for those candidates still waiting to be informed of their destiny. Its really difficult to sit here and wait for a process several years in the making of which we...
