Does anyone know where i can get the boots and shoes required by west point in New Jersey? Otherwise my other option is to go up to West Point and buy them from the cadet store. I know you can buy them online, but i would like to try them out in person before i buy.

I was just curious about the experiences of those who have served in the military:

Greetings!
I am interested in the Medical Corps branch, can anyone give me any feedback on the branch, what classes are required, and how competitive it is? Also does anyone have first-hand experience in this branch? What is it like??
Just thought I would introduce myself after being on this forum for about a month now. I'm a HS senior applying the USMA, and so far I have an LOA- just waiting for the nomination from my congressman! Good luck to all applying, and Happy Holidays!
