They are not the only ones...neither has 2022.I have real concerns about 2023 not getting to experience PROTRAMID.

I would be curious if anyone has done a study evaluating the impact that Protramid has on Midshipman development and Service Selection. As a sample of one, I would say it was fun and I had some good memories, but it had zero impact on my service selection. I knew I wanted to fly, and after I got glasses, NFO was first choice all the way.I have real concerns about 2023 not getting to experience PROTRAMID.
I think knowing you want to fly is probably the best case scenario as far as not being affected. Most people are familiar with flying.I would be curious if anyone has done a study evaluating the impact that Protramid has on Midshipman development and Service Selection.

Find a parent who will be your mail buddy for the remainder. Best thing ever. And many of those locals would LOVE to help. And often offer! Doesn’t have to be an ‘official’ sponsor.How’s the mail situation these days? We overnighted a new phone to our DS (his died and since he can’t leave the Yard he asked us to buy him a replacement). Tracking indicated it arrived FedEx last week but it’s somewhere in the Bancroft post office.
Long lines to get packages. Very long lines.......again.How’s the mail situation these days?

Great offer. Hope he gets appointed.My parents live in Annapolis (retired USN CPT), and we are only about 30 minutes away. If my son gets in for c/o '25, he can be everyone's hook up.
Wow! I just got an email from my son and his FedEx package is STILL sitting somewhere in the bowels of the Bancroft post office.Our son picked up some V8 juice I shipped via walmart. It arrived quickly, but yesterday was his first day out of ROM to get it. He said it wasn't bad in terms of lines or time.
My suggestion for getting a full picture of sub life: Watch “Crimson Tide” but put it on mute and play the Beatles’ “Yellow Submarine” on continuous loop in the background, all while eating a gourmet meal in a dimly lit room. I’ve been told that this is a reasonable facsimile.He envisions it as "Das Boot" or "Hunt for Red October".
To be fair, it shipped on January 12 when he flew out to ROM.Wow! I just got an email from my son and his FedEx package is STILL sitting somewhere in the bowels of the Bancroft post office.
