    Work history for academy candidates

    I can't answer at the Academy level, but the BGO for DS spent a lot of time asking about his job, responsibilities, etc. His boss also wrote him a letter of recommendation for his Congressional nomination. Like you, DS makes his own car payments, covers expenses. Frankly, I would think that...

    No sport?

    I'm just a mom, but in going through this with my son, but I'm seeing numerous opportunities where he is asked about his family situation. My DS has a lot of extra responsibility since I'm a single-mom, and he's been asked about that at length. However, I agree that sports are important and...
