    It might be helpful to listen to the update posted on Sept. 11th at 12:33 on the USMMA FB page. Towards the middle to end they talked about this question.

    Midshipman 1/C Sam Monella 2020

    I just don't understand why this continues to be a problem. Midshipman Wellness includes proper nutrition. There's a difference between food that's not great but edible and unsafe food.

    Auto Insurance Premium adjustment now that kid has left the nest for KP?

    How to explain USMMA

    Thanks for the wonderful insight. I will always be grateful for the KP alumni who attended a college fair last year, and spoke to my son at length. DS might have missed this amazing opportunity. I can't wait to see where his journey takes him.
