    Wisdom Teeth Wisdom?

    Our Plebe to be son had his removed on a Friday & went back to school on Monday. Wisdom teeth were not bothering him yet but I wanted him to have the surgery with a good oral surgeon under my care & supervision. With so much work & activities at USNA, I didn’t want him to get surgery there.

    Social media post resulted in my DQ from AFROTC

    My MIDN son has friends who are avid hunters and I have seen few of his friends post pics with guns, some are in the rifle & pistol club. Maybe your pic was inappropriate or very concerning? Whatever the case, you may need a good attorney to get your records cleared.

    Newaly elected congressman nomination

    Hello, I would not worry to much. If your son has a nomination and is qualified scholastically, medically, & physically then he has a very high chance of getting in. If The Navy wants him, they will find him a slate;)

    Is it too late to Apply?

    I am confused? You can change your rotc scholarship to a different college. I’m thinking competitive colleges will not accept applications after the deadline. However, the rotc college recruiter can speak to admissions or you can ask?
