Excuse my ignorance - but my son is "applying" ( is a candidate) to USNA, USMA & USMMA. I want to provide helpful advice as a parent but I am not familiar with the difference in "service assignments" respective to each of these three academies which I feel is a very important. Where can I find information detailing USMMA "service assignments" and what the differences are between the academies? Again, I don't know enough to be helpful to him, but realize the significance of these choices. What I do know is my son is a D1 wrestling prospect who has multiple opportunities outside of the academies ( we have 5 - D1 opportunities+20 D2,D3), but he is set on this path from what I can tell . So far the USMMA coach (D3) has had a positive influence on him and he appears to be more inclined to join a service academy than a "traditional" college. I don't know what to make of this, am not opposed at all, just wish I was a little more informed of what he could be getting into. Any links, insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
