<p>Unless your cadet/mid has a really good reason why you should not, if you are a parent and you can swing it—go. For my wife and I it will be a day we will always remember. We were even lucky enough to stumble upon the sight of our “new cadet” reporting to the cadet in the red sash through a sally port and get some pics/videos of her receiving “proper instruction”. A one in a million shot that most won’t get, but being there was so important for us.</p>
