    NROTC process this year

    Thank you desk jockey! I had not thought of it that way. It was just hard for us to watch, and indeed frustrating. However, I am not the future midshipman and hopefully my son will have learned something from this experience that will better help him navigate that bureaucracy as an...

    An Odd Scenario for ADHD- Help prior-enlisted!

    "Honesty is the best policy" even if it seems to be an obstacle to what you want. You seem to have a lot of potential and talent. Others with less have overcome such obstacles while maintaining their honor. I urge you to follow their example. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

    Pulling the "insanity" card

    I initially thought the same thing. Also, if you know you have PTSD (often accompanied by hearing voices, hallucinations), the numbing effects of whiskey are understandable, but not that PCP laced marijuana. That is guaranteed to send you off that cliff. However, I was mentioning this to my...
