    I discussed both situations with my ALO yesterday, and he said that unless it was something permanently disqualifying, I would receive a medical deferment.

    Plan B

    I spoke with my ALO earlier this evening. He said that if I was to get injured before I day, I would be issued a medical deferment, where I would be admitted the following fall, following a complete healing.

    Compression Shorts

    Doesn't the appointee packet say white only? "Men MUST bring twelve pair of plain white underwear (boxer briefs must not extend below mid-thigh) and eight plain white V-neck t-shirts." I don't see where I'd be able to get away with grey or black....?

    What does no LOA mean? Wouldn't everyone that got accepted receive an LOA in some form?

    TV Commercial

    On a more serious note, I don't think it really matters who produces the advertisements, as long as it gets the desired result. If professional actors can more effectively convey the message that the Air Force wants to send to the public than current cadets, then who are we to question that? I...

    TV Commercial

    Going all the way back to the OP, my belief is completely independent of the talks about diversity; I think it is much simpler than that. Although it is clear that the commercial itself is promoting diversity, the presence of the ad is not a reach out to all Americans. That would be a horrible...

    Clubs and sports

    I've been looking around at the different extracurriculars offered at usafa, and I'm pretty impressed with the wide range of opportunities. That being said, how many clubs/sports are realistically possible at a time? Since everyone plays a sport, how much time is left over for clubs? I am...

    Boot Info

    I don't know, but the instructions to appointees booklet says that "it is highly recommended" that you bring a pair, and I pretty much take that as a demand.

    Boot Info

    Can someone with the Belleville 690 on hand weigh them for me please? I am trying to compare weights, and can't find anything on the weight of the 690. I'll probably be a 10, but I just need a ballpark, so anything works. Thanks!
