    Church Services

    Does anyone know what time the plebes are at the chapel on Sundays - I think they get a couple of hours with the Chaplain, but I wasn't sure what time they were actually in the chapel.

    Just got off with DS (O-27) - a positive phone call. Said they all switched roommates last week - Said the detailers are being really nice, since they only have a couples of days left. They've been told that when the new detailers come in, it will be the worst 3 days of their lived :)...

    Plebe Summer - Second Phone Call on Sunday July 25th

    Last time our phone call was 30 minutes - so I'm hoping that this one is as well - I guess it depending on the company and what they were up to that day.

    Care package USNA Clothing Contract.

    Sent my son with two white and two gray compressions shorts in his lacrosse bag - he wrote and asked that we send black compression shorts - saying that they (meaning the academy) likes black compression shorts better. Not sure the same rules are true for the girls or her company - but son...

    Call from Annapolis

    Our thoughts are with you, your son, and your family! He will be fine in the end, but it's still very troubling to have to go through this. Know that the academy will take good care of your son (we all have to have faith in that!) and if you can't get there now, PPW is soon. Best of luck...

    First call home!

    We also had a great call - Son sounded better than I've ever heard him! Said the days are long but full, lacrosse is starting three times a week, his roommates are great, his leaders are great... all good stuff. Received the care packages and they should hold him for a while. Yes, sleep...

    First Letters Home

    Received a letter from DS yesterday - what a boost that was for everyone! Said they had crabcakes for lunch on the 4th and donuts from 10-12 on Sunday (guessing that was the religious service?) He said PEP was his favorite, and that it was getting alittle better everyday :) He also said...

    Plebe Summer Question

    Does anyone know if the info on the Central Florida site is still correct regarding plebe summer - just wondering if this will be another stressful time for the plebes.... Plebe Summer Detailers (the upperclassmen who are in charge of training the Plebes) work in 3 week blocks (the summer is...

    Watch and I-Day

    Just re-read the PTR packet - looks like they discourage plebes from bringing a watch - but I thought I read somewhere that they should bring a watch to I-day... any thoughts? one post suggested putting it in a care package?

    Count Down to I-Day

    Had DS graduation party on Sunday - our neighbors son also went to the Academy and as a gift they passed down his lacrosse helmet to our son - he made a great speech. Son had a great time - all his buds were there. There isn't enough time left and I'm starting to panic :) Friends...

    Parent Weekend in August

    We rented a house for PPW because we were going to need sleeping arrangements for 6. So while not cheap, having a kitchen and everyone in one place made it worthwhile for us. Son was looking forward to a couple of home cooked meals. There are a couple of places you can look. We rented...
