DS has only heard from McCaskill so far. Nomination for USNA. Nothing from Rep Hartzler (MO-4) or Blunt as of yet.

Same here. DS has received a nom from McCaskill but I haven’t heard of anyone getting one from Hartzler or Blunt yet. MO-04 as well here.
Keep me posted if you hear anything and I’ll do the same. Merry Christmas!
 
Anyone else heard from Cornyn or Cruz? My DS received USAFA Principle and USNA alternate from MOC but nothing from state, not even 'thanks but no thanks' letter. Fingers crossed for USMA from either of them.
 
DD now has noms from Senator Tillis and Congressman McHenry for USNA. I almost didnt want to post this as I know it means “great, but don’t get too excited.” I imagine NC is pretty competitive for USNA so wishful waiting on my DD part. She has an excellent plan B in place but is holding out for USNA, like thousands of others on this forum.
 
DS received Principal Nomination from Hartzler (MO-4) today to USMA and a Nomination to USNA as well from her. Already has a USNA from McCaskill as well. No word from Blunt yet. His preferences were USNA, USMA and then USAFA. It’s an exciting day around here! Best of luck to all going forward!

DS got an e-mail today from Burr (NC). Interviews are Jan 5th. Was told letters would go out next week. Fingers crossed.

@BBQ-Devil does DS already have 1 nom?

No. He was not selected by Tillis for USNA He received an LOA from the USAFA last Saturday and asked Burr to switch his #1 choice from USNA to USAFA. He got confirmation of the change and the notification of the interview yesterday.
 
Unless something has changed Burr will send out the congrats nom letter by Tuesday after the interview, so you will know really quickly after the board meets.

He also does not interview a million candidates. Basically for a slate of 10 he may interview 18 candidates.
 
Son got a nomination from the USNA from Don Beyer (VA-08). Informed via US Mail yesterday.

We are trying to keep expectations in check - but - given how very competitive Northern Virginia is - we take it as a positive sign.
 
Greetings Nomination fans!

I've got a peculiar question for you people of knowledge & wisdom. This morning DS did his daily check of his candidate portals and noticed a change in his USMA Nominations section. It reads like this:

WI06 Dec 6, 2018
WI62 Dec 20, 2018
WI62 Dec 20, 2018

The first nomination is from our Congressman Glenn Grothman (Wisconsin 6th District). Back on December 1st DS received a letter from Senator Ron Johnson congratulating him on his nominations to all four SAs from Congressman Glenn Grothman, then it said this "The Wisconsin congressional delegation works collaboratively to give all qualified applicants from Wisconsin the greatest opportunity to compete for a limited number of service academy nominations. We make every effort to avoid duplicate nominations to any academy." DS hasn't heard anything yet from Senator Tammy Baldwin's office. But now it looks like he's received two more nominations from the same source, on the same day.......which doesn't make any sense to us.

Is this a typo? Is there any way to figure out the source of WI62? At this point we're guessing it's Senator Baldwin.

Thanks for your help.
