    Letters During Buckner?

    Discouraging to hear that they were not able or want say they will be able to work that out to make it possible at a time that it could make a difference. Same as where is the laundry?? If we are all equal and believe we all have the same need. However, It's not a controversial complex issue to...

    Beast Laundry Problems at USMA

    Good Point. This can turn into a learning experience for the Cadet. The challenge to learn how to improvise; for some the first time to ever wash their own clothes in a sink/shower(kind of laughing about that) and to step up to solve a problem. Guessing my real concern is, after spending X...

    I heard that some are having problems with getting their laundry back. Is it just delayed due to delivery backed up?

    Cell Provider for Device Preference

    So there is personal wifi access for non-government devices like their personal cell phone? How much does it cost? And does anyone know how much or how cellular service is added on the iPad. Is it a separate phone service from your parents cell phone service?

    R-day? carry a backpack??

    Has it ever been stated like that in the past as it's stated on the CBT 2017 Memorandum about R-day luggage? If mandatory, it sounds like you would have to tie your shoes on the outside and/or wear your boots until required to change to low quarters. Would this be advisable to wear your boots...

    Local Admissions Event

    My DS wore a suit & tie, however there were others that did not at the college. The RC walked over and introduced himself to my DS and the only time my DS got a chance to meet him face to face. And my DS did get an appointment to USMA. So I guess my point is, it want hurt to be the only one...

    Purchasing Boots On-Post

    Same for my DS, he went down a size, it fit tighter, walked around the neighborhood but the toe was too short for comfort. Not sure if insoles would help with fit? (which I believe is allowed from another post) My DS seems to be fine with the slightly larger now after climbing on a rainy muddy mtn.

    Purchasing Boots On-Post

    Also, for my DS, (the slightly large T 8 Bifida boot) he tried to break in his boots by climbing Kings Mtn in NC and is still satisfied with the size and boot.

    Purchasing Boots On-Post

    My DS also had trouble with the boots. He settled on a pair slightly large. We did end up buying them at a US Patriot store outside of Ft Bragg because we were told cheaper. Our experience getting on Ft Bragg, NC, my DS had his "shoe letter" which states permission. You will still need the...

    Wisdom Teeth?

    Does this mean that you did not have to pay for another panarama? The dentist just put an "x" on the original (meaning removed) and stated "full healing" and it was accepted? That would same me money on getting another panorex, I think after extraction we will max out on dental insurance.

    Wisdom Teeth?

    My DS was quoted $416 per tooth times 4, plus three 15 mins of deep sedation or general anesthesia (not sure why only 3 not 4 on the anesthesia) Anyway, total $2234, after insurance $734 out of pocket.
