    USAFA Diversity Visit

    I'm the daughter of onlyplaying who went on the visit and for me it was actually the deciding factor between USNA and USAFA. It was a great experience.

    Summer Seminar Advice?

    I think this was already gone over on another thread but from what I remember you get PT shorts, PT shirts, a waterbottle, a hat, notepad, polo, backpack, and towel. I can't remember what else it might be on that other thread.

    June 23 Plane Ticket

    Orientation Clothes

    Preparing for BCT

    Can't believe I forgot about Austin. There's always something fun going on there. 6th street is one of the best places if you're a fan of music. And yes that's music in general not any specific kind.

    Preparing for BCT

    Fiesta Texas is pretty cool too. And the zoo can be fun. There's usually a lot of AF people walking around in their uniforms on weekends.
