Here’s a link to the High Power Rifle and Pistol Team. DD is the current team captain. Message me if you need more information. https://www.usna.edu/HPRT/index.php

Here’s one for all today... HT as of Happy Thanksgiving.

Howdy. My DD is also a Youngster. She was session 1 in 2016 and her detailer recommended her for an award. IMHO, it did make a difference. NASS sealed the deal for her. Hope to run into you at 2/C weekend.

DD is a current Youngster, getting 7 hrs, but 5 or less during exam weeks.

Your stats are very similar to my DD's. You look extremely competitive in my opinion which really means nothing here. Don't worry about all that Asian stuff. You can't help being who you are. Apply and if you get in, do your very best to prove to "yourself" that you belong there. My DD is...

Dude, my DD is 29 days from Plebes No More. You’re still wondering if you can survive Beast. Life sucks if you just barely twist an ankle. Best wishes. BTW, you mentioned the ship collisions and such... Real sailors did die in case you didn’t know.

My DD graduated from the Devil Pups program back in 2013. I’m not sure if it added anything to her application, but it certainly opened her eyes to how much she loves the military. She enjoyed the experience.

I'd like to share with you my experience as a dad of a Plebe '21. I have no idea and won't pretend to know what you're going through. A week before I-Day, my wife and I sensed some hesitation on DD's part follow by tears. I sensed fear of the unknown during our many conversations up to the...

My late father was also a Viet Minh, born in Hanoi 1921. He too fought the French, Japanese, and French again. Mom and Dad left Hanoi in 1954 and he served with the ARVN until his retirement in 1973. My oldest brother was 2d Vietnamese Airborne (68-75) and was wounded three times. I couldn’t go...

The U.S. Naval Academy Parent Community FB page posted this video today. Big brother created a video to honor his little sister, class of 2021. Thought you might enjoy the journey up to I-Day.

DD is currently shooting for the high power rifle and pistol team. This is a club and you do have to have prior experience to tryout. If your DD is interested, please go to YouTube and search for high power rifle competitions. They shoot national match AR-15’s at 200, 300, and 600 yards with...

Here’s one that you can apply to. Just search for it: USNA Class of 2022 BLB Parents. I belong to the 2021 page. Best wishes.

We kept it extremely simple for our DD on I-Day. With just a few minutes to say goodbye, I’m glad it was just us and her older brother. PPW was fun for family and friends.

That's incredible for a small school. DD attended a small town public HS. This past May, we had one graduated from West Point and one from the USNA. We still have a 2/C at the USNA and a junior at West Point. DD is now a Plebe at the USNA and one of her classmates is a freshman at the USAFA...

It was an amazing time for my wife and I. DD walked a bit straighter and a bit taller. She shared amazing stories with us and look forward to the academic year. As great as it was, I was having a tough time giving her back on Sunday afternoon. I can't say enough about the wonderful parents we...

You're not late at all. Thank you so much, 697biling.

Thank you for the tips, Hoops. I downloaded the schedule from last year. We'll just follow that for now.

I was on the Plebe Summer section of the USNA website looking for the I-Day schedule. Nothing listed there. Can I assume it will be similar to previous years? - Nervous parents.

Midwestdad, optics became a reality in the service rifle class last year at Camp Perry. It is extremely unfortunate IMHO.
