    C/O '26 parents - place to commiserate and share. Roller coaster for the next 3 years!

    Exams through Friday for mine. He is helping with sea trials, so no intercessional leave this year. He will spend half of his leave block in France with glee club for D-Day activities with a group of vets. Internship 2nd block and sub cruise 3rd block. Not much time at home.

    Navy-Army tickets

    Apparently they sold out in under 5 minutes. FedEx field holds 67,617 and Lincoln Financial holds 69,796. Not that big a difference. Where did all the tickets go??? No tickets for 3* and below unless you also have season tickets, barely any tickets for Mids. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Navy-Army tickets

    We did the same thing. Sure was a lot easier in 2022 when 1* got you access to 4 Army/Navy tickets

    USNA Class of 2028 Waiting and Speculating

    Interesting that they are now pulling people from WL. I would have thought that they would have doled out all decisions first, and then start filling from WL.

    USNA Class of 2028 Waiting and Speculating

    Don’t focus on where the appointments are from. There are other nominations sources that can be used to give appointments. Until you get notified that you are out, you are still in the ultra marathon running. You can accept other SA and decline if USNA comes through. It is not a commitment.
