AF decisions

once more. If you stand in front of 350 people that is a verbal contract and we will soon be in court. You can't stand in front fo 350 people and say one one thing and then say another. To all the Cadets. Do you see what he is saying. They don't care. It's all about fine print. NOT what they said in recruiting or graduation. BAD LOOK for the AF. And he just admitted this.
Can you imagine how long that poor USAF dude would be standing in front of that group of 350 people...if he had to read every word on every page of the contract? NOT a nail-biter ceremony...by any stretch.

Could it be.....could it possibly be...that the USAF made a presentation to publicly celebrate your son's achievement, as a favor to your family...while simultaneously having the audacity to expect him to actually READ said contract, before he signed it?

Dare one to dream...that somebody would actually know what they were agreeing to...before they agreed to it?
 
my last comment because I know people responding just fuels the fire. Let's say someone had told you that it's not a guaranteed scholarship. Then what would have you have done? Not accept it? I would assume you would have asked if it has ever one bad before and they would have told you that in the past there have been issues but in the last 5-10 years there hasn't been any issues at all and based on the fact that the Air Force still needs another 2000 pilots, there shouldn't be a problem for a long time. And that would have been 100% the truth. What they and you didn't know was Covid was going to hit and retention was going to go sky-high because of it
Holy crap we are on the same wavelength!
 
WOW can you believe the AF ROTC wants to have this individual representing them? WOW WOW WOW. SOG-SA? WOW
Who said anything about me representing AF ROTC????

I do nothing of the sort.

I represent sunshine, Skittles, rainbows, and unicorns around here.

A glimmering sliver of hope, for all of God's children...no matter how oblivious to reality they may be.

no you should actually be honest with 18 year olds and not lie to them if the make perfect straight A's and wake up at 6 am that they will still get kicked out. If I had known there were people like you I would have told him to run. You are the most repulsive person I have ever met. My son ins the most capable person but that is incompatible with people like you that are entitled.
 
You have issues. You just suggested your mom. This is the same person giving advice to youth. Bye Bye
 
Can we get back to the younger son who has to work at Walmart because he didn't get the AFROTC scholarship to Notre Dame and doesn't want to use the full ride at Rutgers?
yep we are working on how we pay for ND. We have an idiot however offering his mom
 
to be clear, the guy offering his mom and deleting posts is the one that needs a time out
 
I thought for sure you were coming back with this one:

Here is what kids need to know that "NO ONE" told my family. 1) Be a stem major to be safer 2) Select Type Rating For my son with straight A's it was not enough after two years and good performance in the unit. He was above 50% but a military history major and he got bounced. So if you fit the first two it's a good gamble. If you don't it's a roll of the dice. It's sad to see a A student kicked to the curb and that's what they just did.

His detachment also did not make cadets aware of what their ranking in their detachment might be. He showed up for everything, volunteered for extra, had good (though not perfect) grades in a tough major (engineering).
Is he a double major with engineering and military history? Could he try joining NROTC or AROTC as a college programmer for the final two years?
