<p>^^^^ it doesn’t.</p>
<p>Candidates-
take a lesson here and move on.
Open a thread with some questions that we can help you with.
Believe it or not, you can find very valuable information on here.
As long as you don’t get caught up in all the flotsam.</p>
<p>USNA84- you get an “A” for effort.</p>
<p>Luigi- can we drop this now-
granted, I will be the first to support entering into academy- ANY academy- with “eyes wide open”… but the Academy of yesteryear is not the academy of today. Perfect? No- no one makes that claim. But the objective remains that.
Bad apples? yup- some. Most get found before commissioning, seems the few that might slip through get found somewhere along the line. Still a lot of great folks graduating from this place, doing a lot of really good work to protect the rest of us who snear and smirk when ONE goes astray. And you are right- it is embarrassing, and it is a shame, no matter what perspective you look at it from. For every one of those, however, I would say, are THOUSANDS of others that have held up their end of the bargain. </p>
<p>Lets turn this forum back to the candidates, what do you think? Truce???</p>
