[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not do it with the current commander in chief. But if you want to, sure. It's a lifestyle. If one is okay with a command and control approach, go for it. My parent wanted me to attend one of these. It was not for me but it's great for those who are okay with the approach. When we visited USNA, they tried to persuade my kid to apply by saying there was no longer "hand to hand combat." That, honestly, was a turn off.[/quote] IME, WP does not sugarcoat the infantry and combat aspect. Everyone is required to take boxing and combat skills, which includes hand to hand combat. Being an athlete at an academy would not be easy bc of everything else the cadets have to do. Also, no transfer portal or NIL money, if your kid is that good. I wonder if being a college athlete and having an ROTC scholarship is possible. Would you have time to do both?[/quote]
