I know it's ironic that someone from a landlocked country wants to go to a Naval Academy haha.
But the main reason for me is that for most of my life, I looked up to United States Marines. They are loyal and ferocious, much like our own military that even I was surprised about how alike we are. Both the Mongolian Army and the USMC have great lineages spanning centuries and will stop at nothing to uphold their duties.
I have contacted a 1st class Midshipmen from Mongolia, and he spoke about going through Leatherneck, training with the USMC and it got me excited.
The USMC was in during GWOT, in Afghanistan, a landlocked country and we Mongolians had the honor to serve with the US.
I personally wish to bring some of this expertise back to my home country and be a part of the long line of warriors who defend our nations sovereignty.
Oorah devil dog, luck pays off!
