A few questions about letters of recommendation from MOCs:
1. If not specified in the MOC's application instructions, is it improper to have the person writing a letter of recommendation (LOC) first submit the LOC to the applicant, and then the applicant submit the LOCs with the rest of his/her nomination application to the MOC (as opposed to having the person writing the LOC send it directly to the MOC)?
2. Does anyone have advice on what to ask the person writing the LOC to include/emphasize? E.g., an English teacher in Chicago may have no idea what's important in an LOC for a USNA applicant, as opposed to one for a civilian institution.
Thank you in advance,
