[quote=Anonymous]These WP videos leave out that you're getting yelled at from day 1. But surviving in this environment requires resilience, which is important and seems to be lacking today at times. Reasons to go to a service academy: desire or willingness to be in the active military at least 5 years after graduation in exchange for cost-free tuition. For those wanting to be pilots, physicians, etc., and are willing to serve to pay back the education and training, they can graduate without paying tuition. Many stay in the reserves until much later in life while pursuing other careers and then have a military retirement. The academies are just one path, though. You can do college ROTC or even just join the reserves while a college student, or you can enter OCS without doing anything at all related to the military while in college.[/quote]
