    Wow..only 15! The year my son (c/o 2014) received his, I heard 48 were given out. This low number just goes to show how incredibly competitive this application year will be. As a mom of a previous LOA recipient, I know just how happy, proud, and excited they are. CONGRATULATIONS!!! Proud Mom...

    LOA's this year?

    I too am wondering this same question. Anyone hear any word whether USCGA will be issuing any LOAs this year or not? And if so, do you know if/when they will go (or gone) out? Good Luck to all!!! Proud Mom to CGA c/o 2014 & CGA c/o 2017 Hopeful

    Cadet for a Day... help?

    As the mom of a 2/C Cadet (and 2017 hopeful...), I've read there is a Base-wide planned power outage from 0600-1600 today. No power anywhere on Base. Not sure if this has anything to do with the server being down or not. Anyone hear anything else about this? My advice... keep trying...
