    Only applying to one Academy

    I'm sure he was. He had various reasons. I would ask him for you but during Plebe summer we won't have contact - sorry. In everything honesty is the best and only policy and it is a pillar at the Academy. We met several at a nomination ceremony that only applied to one SA. Maybe a BGO will...

    120 Self-Reported Appointments... Almost Full?

    We were at a ceremony Saturday recognizing nominees for all SAs in our district. A board member (connected somehow with the NA) stated he believes only about 50% of appointments have gone out. That's his speculation but I wouldn't try to guess by this forum.
