And there's been a few appointees sent home after the results of the urine and blood test results for illicit drug use.

I don't see that the information for this year's PW has been posted yet.. https://www.academyadmissions.com/parents-and-mentors/opportunities-for-families/parents-weekend/

Thanks for the warning, BTCS.. I have two daughters.. please pray for me..
