What is the new plan that is advertised? How will it be different?It was a great documentary. All of the BCT portion will still be accurate. The doolie year portions will be very different from what is depicted in the documentary if the new plan is implemented as advertised for next year.
Doolies are not treated as harshly under the "new plan"....and apparently you can't even call the Doolies anymore.What is the new plan that is advertised? How will it be different?
What is changing with doolie year?It was a great documentary. All of the BCT portion will still be accurate. The doolie year portions will be very different from what is depicted in the documentary if the new plan is implemented as advertised for next year.
To quote the com. General Marks, he wants to make USAFA "a four year program and not a fourTH year program," essentially spreading out privileges that were earned / received after Recognition over the remaining three years in addition to changing some of the training aspects. Every new leader makes changes- this isn't unique to USAFA or even the other service academies, it's any institution!What is changing with doolie year?
Absolutely a great video to show them.
A year in the blue...
Can anyone with experience say if this was a good depiction?
As parents with little military background, it was very informative for us.
Is it recommended to show to an aspiring high school student?
Wasn’t it filmed in 2014 for the class of 2018? Weren’t they RTBs?A Year in the Blue follows the Class of 2014 through their first year at the Academy.
Obviously, there have been changes since this was filmed but it gives you a good idea of what to expect as a cadet.
