My recommendation: Don't if you don't want it taken away. Leave it at home for when you go home. Here, you don't need anything else besides what is already on the computer they issue you.

Wow, I can't believe it is that time of the year again. I can remember just about a year ago getting my LOA and being so excited about it. Well, be excited! You have every right; you earned something very rare. What I do want to add, though, is that you shouldn't start counting down the...

I'm a 4* at USAFA right now. 1252 of us made it to Acceptance Day.

Thanks for the quick response. That is exactly the answer I was looking for.

This is just a quick yes or no thread... As USAFA cadets, are we still required to sign up for selective service?

One pair of boots with socks cost $98.09 (plus 45 cents for the money order). I believe that if you bought two, it was somewhat cheaper... around $177 maybe.

So, overall, what are the benefits of obtaining a membership?

I know many people have asked, but I am hoping that I get a concrete answer out of this. I'm hoping many people contribute to this. My question is: What type of boots do we need for the Academy? What are all the possible avenues of obtaining a pair before BCT?

Just wondering, but I have some information in my packet from AFA that discusses joining the Association of Graduates with a fee of like $600 or something. It asks if you are interested, and, if so, to all the money to gradually be taken out of your cadet pay or do one lump sum. I was just...

All I can do is laugh so hard at the fact that this thread got off topic from the very first post. :shake:

"charged the Academy a $1590 service fee instead of a $15.90 service fee" WOW, talk about screwing up the records lol.

No one has been talking about it, so I figured I would bring it up. I received my 'government furnished' plane ticket to AFA about a week ago. Has anyone else gotten theirs yet?

Okay, so I am 17 and I have a part time job. I will be going to the Academy this summer, and my income will obviously increase from where it sits now. How does all that affect my parents, who claim me on their taxes every year? Will 2009 be the last year that they could claim me, or will...

Yeah, I looked at both of those articles that was ridiculous. The Academy isn't just a stepping stone... It's a foundation for the rest of your life and career.

I'm not trying to brag or anything... I just am posting so that, if you wish, you can know my story a little better. The article appeared on the front page of our city newspaper and is on the following website at this link...

I actually accepted my Air Force Academy appointment about 2 weeks ago. I will be joining the USAFA Class of '14 :D. I felt it was the best option for my desired carrier path, cargo pilot.
