Official USAFA Class of 2017 Appointment thread

I'm one of the happiest people alive right now. [/QUOTE]

I've been lurking here nearly every day since my son began the application process back in 2011. Through all the ups and downs of the application process and his doolie year, I have never ever posted. But today I HAD to register, just so I could personally congratulate LFry94. I've been following you and HaleyM almost as long as I've been following my son! I'm glad for both of you. I'll leave you with my son's facebook post today, as he wraps up his 4dig year. Before you know it, you'll be saying the same.


With just two more classes to go, I will have finished the most difficult, challenging year of my life. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

CONGRATS LFry!!!!!!!!!!
Beware, it's very different on the hill but you'll love it.
