You may find that branching Aviation through AROTC may not be as competitive given that they will be extending to service obligation for Aviation from 6 years to 10 years starting last October. A 10 year plus obligation for Aviation in the other branches, Navy AF CG and Marines don't have the...

That letter just states that out of all the applications this year your son was in the top 1000 applicants, not that they only awarded 1000 scholarships.

I guess Los Angeles talked them into coming there instead.

One of those great ships are headed to our city (Seattle) soon. They will be a welcome relief for our hospitals.

I saw a notice that Cadet Command has cancelled the in person CyberPatriotXII Finals and moved it to virtual competition. It won't be long before they start setting the schedules for Cadet Summer Training, makes me wonder if they are putting any plans together in case they decide to cancel some...

I guess I should post one someone took of him to represent the Army.

Guess only one posted. Here’s the other one.

Son is over there now. Here’s a couple pictures the Marines here will like.

For me it was the best Submarine Movie ever made.

Pan's Labyrinth La Femme Nikita and Das Boot, close behind. Best absolutely stupidly crassly funny? National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Most memorable lines? "We're going to have the hap hap happiest time since Bing Crosby tap danced with Danny F*&#@ing Kaye" Clark Griswold. Scariest? The...

I was just curious, what was the reason for so many cadets contracting so late in the semester, were many of them on scholarship? I know the main reason for a delay in contracting is if the cadet has not passed their APFT or if all the paperwork has not been completed, I assume that some of...

I Love it...Can't be too careful, Haha

Well now I feel like a complete idiot that I used to attend my son’s sporting events and dropped them both off at college. I guess I was doing it all wrong, though I guess I am a helicopter parent...since they both flew helicopters in the Army. I hope I haven’t damaged them for life.

Exactly, I never said she would be required to to inform her Cadre of the exact procedure, my point is that Dodmerb requires they are informed of any medical procedure or change in medical history. Your correct that this information would be used by Dodmerb to determine qualification but would...

You would need to serve an additional 3 years to get your full GI Bill if you had a 4 year ROTC Scholarship or attended a Service Academy. This of course is if you are asking about once you leave the military. If your asking whether you can use it while you are on Active Duty then No, but you...

Not sure this is quite right, you may decide not to tell the Cadre and then simply tell them you had an undisclosed medical procedure at the time but that won't be the end of it. Before commissioning you'll be required to update your medical information, you will be required at this time to...

If your daughter decides to do SMP through AROTC she will be giving up the 3 year scholarship she has been awarded this year. Once she enlists in the NG she will have to participate in ROTC for the first full year before she is able to be considered for an AROTC Contract, that will/could happen...

The AROTC Scholarship does not become invalid until you decline it, If you receive an appointment to WP the AROTC Scholarship will remain valid until you decide to formally decline, many will hold that scholarship up to R-Day just as a safety net incase something happens between the appointment...
