While I don't disagree with you, respect runs both ways. Because someone disagrees with severns position does not give him the right to simply dismiss it with REMF comments, followed by the condescending "Google it".

Uh, sir? Excuse me? Where would you like me to put my sax while I report to the Cadet in the Red Sash?.... What could possibly go wrong? seems like a reasonable question.............:p :p

I was always curious how DD would make out, on those rare occasions when they did have to march. Few and far between, for sure. 4 years at USMA, never did march on at A/N. (she never complained!!)

My DD was a four year member of the Spirit band. Went to auditions, they had a sax there for her to use. Once she made the band, we sent her sax to her from home. While it is nice to have your own instrument to play at tryouts, it was not necessary (this was 2018. She had enough stuff to...

Seems like when DD did her overnight, we took a parents tour, after her escort came and they started their day. Pretty sure we walked through the cadet area, and saw Washington Hall. Went into Thayer as well, as I recall. That was a while ago, so my memory could be wrong.

On point. DD was reconsidering, stayed for the second semester of Plebe year, and took the advice of a Firstie which was to come back for the first semester as a Yuk. It's still hard, but different then being a Plebe. She did, and was a 22 grad last May. Speak with some Firsties.

Just keep your nose clean, and don't do anything stupid!!! AND, enjoy your last few months of HS! WP will be waiting in July.

STAY OUT OF TROUBLE!!! I'm not saying bubble wrap, but..............Congrats.!!

Your NC may be in a down mood. Please do not take this as fact that their life is miserable and they are incredibly unhappy. They may have just had a really bad day or two. etc. WP is a long series of ups and downs. "I want out" one day could be followed the next day by "I got...

My family had one

Dating yourself Dad. I didn't think so either, until my older daughter showed up with one a few months ago. Still actually cool

DD had 2 year BF when she reported to R day. He had graduated HS the year before and was in the AF reserve and attending college. They decided to take it month to month and see. We loved this kid, and thought they were great together. Didn't make it to Thanksgiving. That's how it goes...

Depends on what you are doing. If celebrating something, I recommend Table 9 over the Bear Mountain Bridge. A bit pricey for me, but were able to celebrate a birthday last year with our Firstie there. Loved it. Taking it down the scale, love American Burrito. Schades and Park are more of an...

Stewart has never made $$ sense from my home, so we have never flown there. When HPN makes sense, we fly there, that has been the best. Small airport, quick to rental cars, and the ride up is the best, IMHO. Most times, though, we have to fly into Newark. The ride isn't too bad, but getting...

With the ABNB, you have the flexibility of hitting a grocery store, and cooking in, which takes the crowd hassle out. Helps to have a nice place away from Post, but with the added bonus of not being in a hotel 45 minutes from Post. Our experience was always that for big events, while the Thayer...
