Yes. 99.9999% of men should just leave those at home.

Good sign from the Universe that we should probably hop off this forum for a few minutes and get in the gym.

I think I’ve forgotten too much History to be influenced by the implications of a Puritanical culture; just saying that most dudes in Speedos are straight up nasty on the eye. I’ll echo that shout out to Jim Palmer. He was getting it done in his Jockeys.

About 1/10000 of 1% of the Adult Male population should ever be allowed to don a Speedo in public. For any reason. Ever. And that does apply to you too Greece and the province of Quebec.

Sorry, there are no high schools in the US with 9,000+ students. An extremely large school would be in the 5,000 student range.

Capt MJ has some skeletons in her seabags :D

Seems like you have the right attitude and approach. Good luck Squid!

Fair point Helms and DSL. My comments were only appropriate for truly unfit plebes.

This is very disappointing to hear. These Plebes have the opportunity of a lifetime and a large number of them don’t even have the discipline to show up in shape? 56% fail the PRT on Day 3? Unacceptable. Hate to say this, but as a taxpayer and former Naval Officer it makes you question the...

Wow Ders, can’t believe those schools rejected your DS, he sounds pretty awesome. Great advice, ED/EA does seem to significantly increase your chances of getting in - at least that was the case with my DS and all his buds.

Even if it’s a murmur, it still may be nothing. All depends on the etiology. DS DQ’d for Asthma but not his murmur. ven

Damn Brew, I’m a former Navy Man and would join you in a red hot second for that drink (or three), but DS didn’t make the cut, so that honor is reserved solely for Mid Dads and and Moms. Best of luck to you and your Mid!

and also, not sure if this is you, but never underestimate the power of being a candidate that USNA needs to meet strategic appointee objectives (e g recruited athlete, prior enlisted, college reapplicant, diversity candidate). Mountains can move if you help them complete their puzzle in...

Dream, Great job, you are super fit and USNA will appreciate that. However, that and a few quarters will get you a metered parking spot for an hour in DTA. These boards (and the admissions room floor) are littered with 36 ACT, AP everything, Team Captain, Eagle Scouts that got TWEs. The...

An additional perspective here. I don’t think there is a right answer. It’s a giant puzzle and there’s just no way to know if your piece will fit. DS was 1560 SAT single sitting, 4.0 unweighted, 4.whatever weighted, all the APs, 2 year Director of HS service club, NHS, team captaincy, All...

The crowd roars! God Bless your son and 18D. It will take every bit of his skill, intelligence, and courage to crush the program and all that comes after. Count this American 100% in his corner. That is truly God’s work. Good job mama, you raised a great one!

He sounds absolutely fantastic. USNA admissions is a very peculiar thing if your DS doesn’t make the cut. Best of luck with whatever the future holds!

Boxers are the best!!! Anyone who has not met one should try to ASAP. Another example of Capt MJ wisdom.
