I believe the question was, will it look bad (not good), as if the person was doing it to check off a square. Does anyone have an answer to the question? Would the powers that be read into the recent involvement as a negative?

What type of time travel can I expect from leaving a hotel near the Colorado Springs Airport on Friday morning. I need to be at the cadet airport 6 AM. After some time I'll be traveling back to the Hotel to pick up the family to arrive at the fields house at 9:15am. What kind of time can I...

This was somewhat started with the Swine Flu Class of 2013. That year Doolie Day Out became Doolie Day In and it became a hit because the Basic's were able to chill and relax with their classmates. For the Class of 2014 it became both, a Doolie Day in and a Doolie Day Out. The Doolie Day Out...

You asked for opinions....so here is my short one. Do Cross Country in the fall and Drama the rest of the time. Become a leader in both. Run all year, be dedicated (join a club team and lead there). Do what you love, love what you do.

A comment from Facebook stated that the young man's t-shirt stated "I eat upper classmen for breakfast" (oh no he didn't) hence why his shirt is covered by a light jacket. If true that t-shirt should provide 9 months of personal training.

Well said. I never quite understood it when my DS would try to explain it.:redface:

My DS, if I'm not mistaken, mentioned that all wall clocks are covered up during BCT.

Till recognition you may wish to call it a hand bag:shake: First year Chem. classes will give that left arm some nice definition.

Buffalo, good job on answering the question completly. This thread is now complete.:thumb: Opinion: If the Academy feels you need supplements, they will issue them to you. Leave yours at home or wait till BCT is over. Now to educate others - Hornetguy, what have you heard about O'3's?

Sorry, but it seems to me that your response is the only post that does not add, postive or negative, to the original theme. When is reponding to someones response become "squashing the topic". Stay around for a year or two and you'll begin to see patterns that develop at this time of...

Mike, what a crazy year. It went by so slow, it went by so fast. Your comments regarding the day your son received his appointment in front of other students reminded me of what an amazing year it has been. Tyler has declared his major, Civil Engineering. Will be in Squadron 15 and says he...

So what your saying is that you're willing to take a few cheap shots at this kid and the Air Force Academy for what an article did not choose to cover? It appears to me that the article was written from a sports point of view. It did not state what else he was involved in. So it would be...

Do not wear them! If you do so you will draw alot of extra attention from the cadre. Try to wear a collared shirt and tie your boots together by the laces and wear them over your shoulder. This of course is my opinion. Others who have been there and done that will soon chime in.

IMO - When you join, let the Cadet Commander know that you want to Fast Track. Fast Track is not a CAP term, but it is to say that you want to promote as quickly as possible. Which is every 8 weeks. Study in such a way as to ACE each exam. Being a good leader early will show others that you...

Wait a minute....are you guys saying that there are other Military Academies other than the Air Force Academy. Get out of here.:eek:

If your goal is the Air Force Academy get used to negative feedback. The first year is full of it.

Don't be this guy. Taken from the Webguy blog One Class of 2014 slept over night on the sidewalk in front of where Appointees sign-in. WebGuy's Blog 1st Appointee on the Scene Submitted by WebGuy on June 24, 2010 - 5:24am "Well, haven't seen this before. When I arrived, there was...

The problem occurs when you realize (right after taking a GR) that you can only choose one of the three.:eek:

Thank you Flieger and Raimius.

If chosen for UPT, what is the order from start to airplane assignment? Does your grades from the Academy affect what you get or is it how you do during the training?
