    New KP Flag Available

    I think you answered your own question rather succinctly - your MARAD doc pretty much assures you have the officially sanctioned flag! :) Nice work.

    Shameless Plug....

    I'll take it for granted that they now have paddles securely lashed aboard the trailing dinghy...after rescue at sea earlier this season and being forced to paddle with a PFD!:yllol:

    Hurricane/parents weekend

    Back to issue of badges...sorry... So, after much deliberation, we decided to purchase badged for Friday events only, under the auspice that the actual swearing in ceremony was a "free" event. If hurricane Earl pushes everything inside, will we still be able to attend the swearing in?:confused:

    On the Need for Badges

    My husband had the same concerns - he contacted the Academy directly via email (not the parents association) and received reply w/i 24hrs...Basically, you may attend the Acceptance Day parade and ceremony - watch the swearing in at no cost. Then you retrieve your Plebe after the football game...
