My daughter is graduating in 2016. I was told that you can rent out houses for graduation. Does anyone have any ideas about how to go about locating these houses? Any ideas of cost?

I know that our DD is covered medically at the Academy. But what happens if she is injured or needs care when on a break and at home? Looking to drop traditional coverage on her and want to know what to do just in case when she is home.

Already received a phone call this morning right at 8:00. Great to hear her voice and we will get to Skype later....yahoo!

Received eight letters from our DD after we returned home from our week long vacation today. She wanted to feel, in some small way, feminine during BCT so she had a pedicure on the Tuesday prior to I day painting her toenails bright orange. For some reason, she thought her toenails would be...

Looking at the pix from today's download, there has been a discernible change in the faces of our BCT's. They all look like they are on the edge of exhaustion, no smiles or bright faces. Just a series of downcast and beaten expressions. I went on Facebook and saw my DD's classmates having fun...

Got to love Bratka...looks like he came out of central casting.

I have to admit, I am addicted to the Webguy. So when there has been a dearth of photos today, like none, I need my fix. Webguy said in an early blog there were thousands of pictures waiting to be loaded onto the site. C'mon man, give me my stuff!:mad:

DD is an Aggressor and on the first bus out this morning. She was nervous at breakfast but after the AOG welcoming speech and the process started moving, she got right into the flow. I held it together and am so proud of all of the new BCT Cadets. The usage of the field house was very...

The day always seemed so far away, now it is here. We always had more time, now we don't. Over the past month or so, we have been consumed with graduation, awards, parties and all of the other activities that distracted us from the harsh reality that our daughter is going to leave us. Never...

Thanksgiving leave begins November 20th LMD...what does LMD mean? Flights are already booking up.

In twenty days, I will be dropping my daughter off at the Academy to begin her new life. I want to give her some fatherly advice on how to handle her interaction with the male cadets. We have been connected with current and former female cadets and all of them have relayed some form, mild or...

I apologize up front for the redundancy of my question but I can't seem to find an official calendar that shows August 7th as the date for the Acceptance parade. Does someone have a link to such a calendar? Also, I assume that it is being held in the morning...what is the actual time? Thanks...

Relatives are asking about graduation gifts for our DD and she needs a watch. What style is best, digital or analog? Is the G shock popular, is there a regulation about color or is white Ok for a female? Just want to make sure we get the most practical form of time piece without drawing...

My DD was told by her summer seminar cadre to make sure she bought her boots early in an effort to get used to them prior to BCT. I have seen conflicting recommendations and was wondering if anyone had an experienced opinion on whether to buy them now or simply wait until I-day. Thanks

My DD will be 17 until late October. Will I need to sign for her on all of the enrollment paperwork, etc.? Or is she legally able to sign her own legal paperwork even though she hasn't reached 18?

DD received a call from our MOC informing her that she has an appointment. This was after she received an LOA and a nomination. Went to check her application this morning and her application status has changed from "Letter of Assurance" to "Complete". Seems like a step backward...anybody else...

Very concerned about my DD attending the USAFA. What can be done to insure her safety in an apparently dangerous place for women? I fear that she will be constantly looking over her back...and well she probably should...

DD received a call from our MOC informing her that since she already has an LOA and her GPA, SAT's and recommendations are strong, no interview is necessary...she has her nomination. She will be ranked last, #10, on the slate so others can have a chance at admittance. So nice to have this...

Ok...I have waited long enough and no one else wants to bring it up...How about the big rumor of the football team only going to the Big East? Talk about a money grab. Or is AF taking advantage of filling the vacuum of a rapidly evaporating Big East which has an automatic BCS bowl bid...

Coach said first boards were already held in early October but nothing has materialized as of yet. I see that both Navy and Army have already sent out LOA's. When do you think the first round of LOA's will be sent?
