Noted that the items listed, all of which are good things to bring, were mainly of the common sense items (body glide, etc.). One thing I wish we or DS had boiught on Day 1 that is available was USAA Renter's Insurance (~41/year) for Midn'.
He has it now but it would have paid for itself 30+ times over when he inadvertantly left his computer oin the Amtrak train when he was returning to KP from a spring weekend liberty at home here in DC. It covers their computers and several other things that could come in handy and it's was only $41.00/year when we bought it the first time last year. If it went up, it can't have been all that much since DS paid for the renewal and if it went up too much he might have reconsidered "betting against himself."
This quote was taken from a thread on USMMA. However my question deals specifically with West Point. Can anyone give me any thoughts, suggestion, or opinions with respect to Renter's Insurance (we use USAA for all our insurance needs)?
Do we need to buy enough coverage for the laptop computer daughter will get from West Point or will WP replace it if it gets lost or stolen? Are the cadets offered to buy a policy on R-day/A-day or should we secure it before reporting on the 27th of June?
Thank you!
