When my plebe pulled up grades over break, I thought I saw a class size of around 1057 or something like that noted somewhere on his portal. But I could be wrong. That type was very small and he didn't linger long on any of the tabs....:-)

I can't seem to find anything on the USNA site, though I suspect I know the answer...my mid is still on my insurance and I just want to get him antibiotics for something that has lingered far too long. Over 6 weeks with negative tests for strep and mono while on the Yard but definitely not...

Can mids get a discount if they are buying a ticket for a guest? Or just go to the online site like everyone else :-)

My Dad is an ND grad (with a grandson Mid) and he says this is the year Navy is going to take ND!

What does extending a Beat Army weekend mean?

Let her go. How can her fellow sailors, marines, and soldiers--regardless of race or ethnicity--have confidence she has their back, in harms way, with those comments?

He's a 4/C so half it is!! Does anyone know what is at the Blue and Gold tent? Worth going at the half? Can we bring our Mid? Sorry for all the questions!!!

Considering options for tomorrow...Captain's BBQ (hot but on the field) or Akerson Tower (up high, air conditioned but inside). This will be our only game at Annapolis so we want to experience it all! Best place to watch march-on, fly-over etc? Also, do you get to see your Mid much before or...

What are the must-do activities for a Navy football weekend? I know there is a march on the field the day of, but a friend just asked me if there is still a parade the day before the game? I'm the daughter of an ND grad so I have seen how storied programs like ND or Navy have a lot going on...

My son received an NROTC scholarship and also reapplied to USNA. He went in to his first year at College all-in, giving 100% to his academic, rowing, and Battalion commitments. Loved the school and was well respected by his leaders and peers. Had he known how much he loved where he landed, I...

I'm wondering if I throw $20 in his next letter, if he'll get in trouble for having money (if others have theirs in storage with their wallets etc). I doubt there is any cash in his. We took the "you can show up with the clothes on your back literally" so the kid didn't have a calculator for...

I saw a mom another forum mention her son asked for money for the baseball game the plebes attend at the end of the summer. Are they allowed to receive money?

We are fortunate to only be an hour from Baltimore by plane so we are hoping to bring our plebe home for Thanksgiving. Anyone have thoughts on best and fastest way from Annapolis to BWI? Would 3 hours between leaving yard and flight be enough time? Any sense of when they need to be back on...

Great phone call for us as well. Loves squaring meals but is tiring of sitting on the edge of his seat! Said that detailers are tough but fair and that you can tell how much time and effort has gone into training them to be great leaders. Squared his fruit snacks I sent him when sitting alone...

Received a positive letter in CT yesterday, but of course, that was written just 3 days in! Biggest surprise for us is that he told us he auditioned for the Drum and Bugle Corp -- he didn't want to (and didn't) bring his trumpet! If he makes it, I'm hoping that he can do that and play his...

GF is coming to our house so we can share the call...I wasn't risking it!!!

I know this has been covered before but I've read so many different things in different places...I understand DS could arrive with "just the clothes on his back" and plans to wear his broken in sneakers (which a current mid told him at the Welcome Aboard did not have to be "nearly all white" --...

Just FYI if anyone is pursuing -- I did find at a Walgreen's (if you are in CT, the only Walgreens in the state that has it is Glastonbury!) and they will fill a prescription from your physician that can then be brought to your physician to be administered (holy hoops!)

Our primary dr. does not offer and we have to jump through hoops to get at local university hospital. Has anyone had luck with finding at pharmacy "minute clinics?"

Is it advisable to send the final college transcript and if so, would you send through admission? I note that some of the validation requirements include test and transcript (or syllabus) so just wondering where to send the documents.
