    Yes, it replaced Jump, its not in addition to. The rest of the time is Support. Whatever that means. Hopefully on the posititve side, this will give him lots of down time to rest and relax after the tough first year. He was partly upset because his rankings were lower than they should have...

    Checklist before BCT

    Thank you for this tread. My DS missed the email from the cadet clinic on June 3, since it was in his junk folder. Thanks to seeing this thread he was able to find it and get the rest of the forms he needed to take with him. He left today, a few days early, to try to acclimate to the climate...

    My DS got his rejection in early March. When he received his appointment to West Point a few weeks later, he accepted it knowing it was his only chance left for a SA. So he received his AFA appointment now and is having a hard time deciding which to accept since WP accepted him early and...
