[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in Arlington, within walking distance of Yorktown. Off the top of my head, I can name five guys who went to either West Point or The Naval Academy. Their families are/were old money and they probably leaned to the left politically. I'm not sure about two of the guys, but three had dads who were high ranked military officers. I am also left-leaning on most issues but would have no objections if my kids wanted to attend a service academy. Since this is an anonymous forum, I will say I'd be pissed if they decided to enlist right out of high school; there are obviously exceptions to this, but I think not having a degree is generally a big roadblock.
