To all recent/former parents, current/former plebes, midshipmen who do remember and have a word of advice - for example if I could go back I could have done this etc. or before my indoc an event happened that I could have prevented if... etc.:
I am asking for sharing experiences/do's/don'ts -what is the sequence of events after you or your DD/DS has accepted appointment. I know it is early, but better prepared and safe than sorry.
So far this has been done on my DS's side:
1. applied for TWIC card
2. wisdom teeth (has 2 only) - one is out, another more complicated extraction is scheduled for end of March
3. he is working out anyway everyday since he is a swimmer; going to the gym twice weekly. maybe needs to include some running
4. watching weight
We plan to go to Europe during May/June after high school graduation. I need to roughly know what to expect and when from USMMA as documents exchange back/forth to plan accordingly. One option is to go for a shorter vacation of 2-3 weeks or go for two months and land in NY before indoc. DS needs to visit grandparents before going to USMMA.
Thank you for sharing!
