Hello to everyone on this site! I have been reading these forums religiously for the past two years to gather as much information as possible on the Academies as I am seriously considering going that route -- thank you all for the valuable insight you share on here every day.
I reached out to my BGO (a senior officer) today via email and accidentally referred to him as mister instead of sir. He corrected me in his reply and I proceeded to then call him and profusely apologize for the slip. He told me not to worry about it, but I then proceeded to slip up once more and end the call with "Beat Navy" instead of "Beat Army" as my family is Army and I have grown up saying the former.
I know that the second reason is somewhat silly for me to freak out so much over, but at the same time I'm terrified that I made a horrible first impression. I was a nervous wreck and did not know what I was saying. Is this enough for him to put me in his 'no' pile?
