Hahaha, good call Luigi.
Truth is, cadets and midshipmen do use "Annapolis" and once you attend an academy "The Academy" is "your academy". When we say "the Academy" we're talking about our academy, never Air Force....I do understand much of the country might refer to AFA as "The Academy" though, but you won't hear non-AFA cadet/midshipmen using "the academy" to describe AFA.
