[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes very Honestly [b]I'd consider them up there with Harvard and Yale too[/b]. In addition to needing great grades, you need the athletic ability to be there. Plus the commitment to a service career, risk of going to war, etc. There's a reason why a lot of future politicians come from the academies.[/quote] LOL. You are FUNNY! They don't want independent thinkers. They want kids who follow orders without questions. Certain types of kids. [/quote] I'm not a gung-ho military booster, but this is just ignorant. They are training the future leaders - the last thing they want in mindless drones. They want young men and women who have the aptitude to be trained in strategy, tactics, history, politics, technology, and leadership, so they can be the ones giving orders down the road. [/quote]
