This was VMI's first year with a Combat Dive club, though not recognized as a formal school club. Because of the success of the last year they had a large enough interest that the school will recognize as a bono fide club! One of the Cadets who graduated from the CDQC was the CIC last year and...

Was wondering if anyone has had any experience with what's referred to as an "Athletic Heart". It could be considered an "athletic cardiomyopathy", which in the Army cardiomyopathy would be a DQ, however in the Athletic Heart there are no medical consequences. This condition can happen with...

Reason for Question The reason I posted this question was because I felt that my son was not going to get a nomination or a sponsored prep nom because of his very weak SAT scores. I didn't know if there was any value in going to a prep year ( say at Valley Forge) or a military Jr. College as a...
