    Slightly Injured 2015 Appointee/Cadet

    I would be very surprised if you got turned back because of it. As long as there is no damage to your brain you should be fine. Try not to worry about it because I really don't think it will be an issue other than not looking pretty for the pics on I-Day.

    4*s Get New Squadron Assignments

    All squads are different. Some squads, like Mighty Mach 1, is considered super hard core so thats where the comment came from. It doesn't have anything to do with your career opportunities, but just how your life will be while you are here. As far as the life of an upperclassman, it can be...

    Is a summer seminar acceptance a good sign?

    Negativity at the USAFA?

    I think the negativity mostly starts after you get here. Before a cadet gets to the academy, they are almost all very excited to get there. The negativity is mostly because of the rules and the academics. I don't think most people have stopped trying altogether, but there is a lot of...
