I couldn't believe it when I read it a couple of years ago... http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2014/10/25/report-west-point-recruited-football-players-with-booze-women/17910497/ http://abc7news.com/sports/west-point-rocked-by-football-recruiting-scandal/368623/ Here's LTG Caslen's...

By no means am I an expert either, but I thought I read somewhere that 6 pullups was the "unadvertised" minimum; 9 is the published average on the CFA instructions. Can anyone else chime in?

More like INSANELY tough for Corps Squad athletes...especially for a plebe. Your average CS 4C is also required to do his/her share of duties..they're constantly sensitive about how they're perceived by their peers and upperclass. Let's not forget adjusting to the crazy academics during the...

Reminds me of how some old grads call the place, "the other Federal Penitentiary on the Hudson"....north of Sing Sing...

The best damn response on this entire thread! My compliments, sir... :rockon:

A huge surprise this year indeed...Hoping Coach Monken is the real deal... I could have sworn that I heard the following in the stands a while back :jump1::bounce1::groupwave: --------------------- The Army team's the pride and dream Of every heart in gray. The Army line you'll ever find A...

Reveille ...I meant to say "Retreat."

As your son is "very turned off by reflexive patriotism and nationalism," does this mean your son won't be saluting the flag at Reveille and Taps?

Back in the "old" days, wasn't the PT test administered on some military base by an officer? If there is such "lack of faith" by USMA, why not go back to doing it on the bases? I'm assuming it's a logistical issue (ie. not as many army/military bases, how to adhere to the time/interval/rest...

Congrats Brovol & Tug Boat and to your young cadets! Apparently, they went through one of the toughest Beast Barracks in a long, long time...see CBT section below: Statistics Quoted by Supe: Files Opened Class of 2020: Applications: 14, 830 Women: 3,966; African American 1,859; Hispanic...

Just a recommendation...I would have used the following titles/verbiage to alleviate the other 2 responders' confusion: Little known facts/secrets of the Army The Army you didn't know... The Army's hole in the wall... The Army's best kept secrets... (comment: maybe this one's a stretch) By the...

Nice...Such a helpful response... I found a slightly older one to share with everyone: http://www.usma.edu/classes/SiteAssets/SitePages/2015/rday_supply_list.pdf

Happened upon this site/page the other day and wanted to share... http://www.west-point.org/academy/malo-wa/educators/faqs.html The first third to half of the site is admissions related. The rest is related to entry prep. Also note that this must be an older FAQ (circa early 2000's) as...

Academics: 60% of your whole candidate score (WCS) Source (page 9): http://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/research_reports/RR700/RR723/RAND_RR723.pdf You ask a rather broad question...Try doing a comparison of yourself with recent class profiles: LINK HERE

Are you serious? You won't respond if I don't identify myself??? What if I'd just like to keep my status anonymous? Have you considered that any fool can come on this board and fabricate a story about themselves?

Was your grad able to keep the rank patch on his/her full dress uniform? Perhaps you can't keep non-standard (other than the 3 chevron) 1st class ranks (ie. co/bat/reg/brig command or staff)?

Cadet store only appears to sell the plume only; no mention of the tarbucket. http://www.usma.edu/dca/SiteAssets/SitePages/Academy Stores/CadetGrad.pdf I would recommend contacting the Cadet Store to see whether they sell the tarbucket also. Doesn't your hubby still have his tarbucket? They...
