End of the road for me?

My son has two noms for MMA that you can have.

That really isn't helpful, here.

I don't think it works like that, as far as I know, you need to have a nom by a congressman or senator. The nom source will notify USMMA directly. I was in a similar situation as you [23candidate], I was refused an interview by a congressman from a neighboring district, so I applied to my senator and congressman. I have heard that if you are competitive and can't get a nomination that you can reach out to USMMA and they will get you a nomination from another source that didn't use all of theirs. For example, I live in PA, and if I wasn't able to get a nom, but a congressman in, say, Montana didn't use all 10 of their nominations, I could get one from him. I suggest reaching out to LTCDR Watson to see if this is an option for you. Best of luck, hopefully, we will end up being classmates next year!

I'm pretty sure @A1Janitor 's comment was meant to be tongue in cheek.

You’re wrong.

As I told someone in PM - USMMA was my son’s second choice. They do not give waivers for colorblindness.

So ... a little feeling sorry for my kid with the realization that he is tops in everything he can control ... along with having two noms available that we can’t use.

My son was the only nom from our district.

Understand. I guess I meant that you know that the nominations could not be used by someone else. That's what I meant by tongue in cheek (if your comment was aimed at me).

Jan 31st? I thought the deadline was Feb 1st and later moved to Feb 8th.

You are correct Armadillo.
