It wasn’t long ago when I was scouring this page trying to get all the information about USAFA that I could gather. Here we are years later he has graduated c/o 2023, turned 24 today, moved on to pilot training and this Friday gets his AF wings. Time flies. Here’s to hoping he gets tracked to...

The wing pays for their tickets, they are definitely not free as it comes from their pay.

Hopefully they only take one game out of their pay then. Also, it already doesn’t ever look full enough on tv so this won’t help that at all.

He is absolutely a Doolie !! Doesn’t matter what they are supposed to be called 😜

FWIW my ‘23 was told they would here before parents weekend and they actually DID the week before so there is hope but, I still wouldn’t hold my breath.

ENJJPT is still very backlogged but other 3 bases seem to not be any more than usual. Casual is still the norm for 2d Lt going to UPT

Definitely isn’t the case

Don’t hold your breath

I’d say excel in both. Have a sit down talk with the crew coach and the JROTC staff. You may only be second team crew but still better to do both. This is my take I’m sure others will disagree

Food, dogs, and just a comfortable space to hang out, relax, sleep , talk on phone. Thank you for your service and thanks for willing to be a comfortable source for the new doolies.

No undergraduate degree should cost that. Definitely not worth it. A doctorate, maybe.

Not bad advice but getting one of those minimal slots is going to be extremely difficult. If he really wanted pilot USAFA was the way to go but he clearly chose a different route because of wrestling (which is fine) but he will just have to play the hand he’s dealt when the time comes.

If my daughter boyfriends parents can’t come in for their sons 5th regiment graduation because they live many states away I will probably go with her to support him. May wear my AF shirt 😝

I would have went to USNA and cross commissioned at graduation.

Provide some context to the question, I mean seriously. You have provided zero information that you had on your initial application so how in the world would anyone be able to tell you what to improve on?

You’re missing the main indicator and that is an ACT or SAT score.

Traditionally the incoming classes hover at over 80% of appointees played at least 1 if not more Varsity sports during HS. If that number doesn’t give you an idea of how important it is then that’s on you. Join the track team or cross country team. Those are usually no cut sports and then you...

Very competitive just like everything there. They just won Club Nationals a few weeks ago.

USPS for BCT letters. Just remember you won’t get them everyday and you may not even get them in order so I suggest all parents or friends etc number the envelopes on the outside of the letter so the basic cadet knows if something is out of sorts.

No Guts, No Glory !!
