    Regulations on Bed/Clothes Folding for NAPS

    I was wondering if anyone knows the SOP on how to make your bed at NAPS, as well as how to fold your clothes? I kinda want to practice now to make sure I know how to do it when I get there. I also started learning the Sailor's Creed and the 11 General Orders. Does anyone else suggest anything to...

    Texas A&M Class of 2015

    I got into the Naval Academy Prep School, but turned it down to take my scholarship at A&M. I turely did fall in love with A&M, and I don't think I could turn down an opportunity to be apart of amazing traditions.

    Congress asked to investigate NAPS

    I think if Congress wants to look into NAPS they should look into other prep schools and ROTC. Every single program has a quota or say to be met on how many minorities or how many of this major or how many people play this sport type deal so they can recieve funding. Its not only NAPS, it is...
