I agree. I am driving my son crazy, and my muscles are so tight, I am afraid of what my body will feel like when they all start to loosen up finally. I keep trying to just look the other way, while I am counting down the days. :frown:

Very well said and explained Bruno!:thumb:

HI anticipating the approach of "R"day myself. from PA

This is a what the Directorate of Communications"said in an email on the listserv and I quote "By now you should have received your Parent's Almanac. There was a letter with that document that alludes to another document -"Information for New Cadets". It has now been posted on the Candidate...

Ok, that makes a little more sense.. just trying to figure it all out, son is in the USAR right now, heading to WP come June 28th, he was just wondering how WP does it, so I needed a little clearer understanding to try and explain it to him!! Thanks everyone for trying to clear out the...

Ok, let me get this straight? So do they have the different grades of the ranking? such as: If plebes are Privates - are they Private (E-2) and PFC's (E3) or just Privates? and Yearlings (Yuks) are Corporals - SPC (specialist) and CPL (corporal) or just Corporals and the SPC falls in the...

Does anyone know if there is a link to the Ranking of the Cadets at USMA? ie... SGT, SSGT, SFC..... do they Rank exactly the same as the Regular Army but with Cadet in front, such as Cadet SGT???

Yeah! The 2nd Admissible Letters are posted to the Portal.

Now if they would update the portal about the shoes!! Checking everyday...

Of course my son only received a cover letter and the envelopes to mail the "admissible mailings" back in his large packet that was mailed to him. He had to download and print all the forms from online off of his portal.

don't remember where this was posted either the forum or on prospective-net listserv. But this question was raised before, and the answer was the forms are fine, they are just standard and have not been updated, to just fill them out and send them in by the correct time frame noted in the...

JAM-I will be sure to check out the map, I'm a sucker for maps... lists, ect... have to map out everything (i'm the person at the amusement parks, that the park map doesn't leave her hand until she's in the car going home). drives everyone nuts, and sometimes myself. Brain cannot function if...

Thank You m3b. Knowing my son, he probably will want to leave no later then 7:30. When we went there back in October, we entered thru Thayer gate, and it is basically a straight shot from the motel. I think that we are going to have to take a little drive around Sunday night to get familiar...
