You could try to gain admittance to the the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences the military medical school located in Bethesda, Maryland. I quote from their website: "As a USUHS student, you are commissioned as an active duty O-1 with all that entails. As such, you earn an income...

My son went to KP with the thought of going AD. His first sea year dissauded him from that. But during the way I asked him if he considered flight school His reply was that if he was on a ship and it started to sink, he could swim, but if he was on a plane that started to crash, he could...

I am sure it is up there on the list. There were kids being kicked out through my son's 4th year. No one is safe until they walk across the stage and are handed a diploma.

A few years ago during his second year my son asked me what i would think if he were to leave. I told him it was his life, that he had earned the right to make his decision and I would support whatever he decided. Then I held my breath until he returned to school for his third year. He...

Does this mean that the days of visiting federal officials will no longer be able to through all nite parties with the boys in the regiment?

Where do these rumors come from?

This is appalling. How can this possibly happen? How are these conditions allowed to exist? Prisoners in county jails get running water and urinals.

My son is now in 5th Company, and reported that in addition to no a/c, the hall is filthy and was not ready to be occupied. I really hate to see them starting a new academic year in less than equal circumstances to other members of 2014.

KBH Speaks So several day after this post the expected communication finally arrived. What a curious year it has been.

But after doing his homework and learning about the year at sea, as well as some problems at the USCGA, the balance is tipping to KP.

My son has received an appointment to the USMMA. He has been accepted to A&M and another school, has been offered a full ride at the other. He went to the recruiter office to do the NROTC application, and they were very excited about his app. But here we sit hearing zip from the NROTC; but I...

a curious event So out of the blue my son gets this letter from annapolis telling him he is academically qualified and to submit any supplemental materials by March 1. Can anyone read those tea leaves?

My older son is at A&M, so here is my view. Car: There is no need for a car on campus, especially for the first year of school. There are enough buses to get around. A car is just one more hassle to worry about and for the first year the less hassles the better. Sports pass: If your...

Silence of the Hutch My son also has not gotten any word. He had received a nomination from his congressman, so I anticipate that he will get a letter that tells him since he has gotten one from his MOC that she would not be giving him one. Nonetheless, the courtesy of a response would have...

Why not law school? I have practiced law for 28 years now and it is still a lot of fun. My friends who were in JAG tell me that was the best time of their lives.

JCAP Midnight yell-yes. Obstacle course, chance to work with fish drill team, anything the Corps does they will learn about.

Texas A&M JCAP/Aggie Eagle/etc. My son has attended both the Aggie Eagle Weekend & JCAP. He is set for a spend the night, but we will see what happens. JCAP is a good weekend. They have a seperate session for parents and will stay and answer every question if it takes 45 hours (it won't-...

kp v cga I know someone who graduated KP in the 60's and has done very well. My son went to AIM last summer and just really enjoyed it. But he is happy with his admission offer and we will go up soon. Although we are in tx, I am personally bemused since I grew up on LI.

Get your Eagle rank. It is a big deal.
