Dropped son off at O'Hare for I Day. Fast forward to Parent's Weekend. Almost didn't recognize him. He had grown into a man.

VRBO.com! We have had such good luck. Clean. Convenient.

There will be squadmates that can help get your sons/daughters to the airport.

One word of caution. We received few letters from our son during BCT. The first was upbeat. The second was dreadful. I obsessed about it for weeks. The final letter? Much better. So, remember, it's a roller coaster ride. Try not to get too caught up in the down times.

I echo the razor. At the graduation party, I prepared postcards prelabeled with his BCT address. Family and friends filled these out, and I sent one or two to him a day (in an envelope - wouldn't want any unnecessary attention). It provided a taste of home and words of encouragement during BCT...

Please don't panic. My son (C2C) sent us one letter for both BCTs. And when it did arrive, it was not filled with happiness and sunshine. When he was allowed to call, he told us that he was exhausted. Sleep was more important than family contact. Hang in there. We lived for that Doolie Day phone...

Model UN I believe this is a class NOT a club.

Thanks to all. One less thing to fret over.

Sponsor Family DS leaves Wednesday. Heard from B&B sponsor but not from sponsor family. Any one else in similar circumstances?

Does anyone know how many cadets go onto become battlefield airmen? (ex. Tactical Air Control Parties or Joint Terminal Attack Controllers)

Hello everyone. I am trying staying on track with the Academy running plan. However, I find it difficult to judge the distances and my pace. I am currently using an app that tracks my run through GPS, but the readings are very inconsistent. I was wondering if anyone had found a good way to...

Son just received appointment packet with tons of information. Little concerned about the paragraph or two about wisdom teeth. How necessary is it for wisdom teeth to be removed if not causing any problems? Our dentist stated that there are no eruptions or impactions at this time and did not see...

Should son get injured (God forbid!) before or during BCT and not be able to attend USAFA Class of 2014, should he also accept admission to another college in conjunction with appt?

I am not sure if this is the right area to ask this question, but here goes... What happens after LOA and nomination are received? How long after will son be notified of an appointment? In addition, there seems to be some sort of orientation that takes place in April. What is that and when...
