<p>Sacto Mom - The Parents club that we belong to (USMA - Long Island) has several families that have multiple children attending or graduated from service academies. I spoke to one mother recently who has a son USMA - 2008, and a son USMMA - 2007. I will be attending a graduation party May 27 for a USMA cadet who has a brother that graduated (I believe USMA 02). There are currently 2 brothers (I believe are twins) from LI on the football team. I met a USMA cadet that graduated last year who has a sister currently in the USAFA. The former president of our club has 2 sons that graduated from the USMA. On Sunday I took the ride up to West Point after work to take my son out to dinner with one of his class mates (WP-2008). This other cadet had a brother and 2 sisters that graduated from the USMA. Interesting that the father was a graduate of the USAFA. He had no explanation for this. </p>
<p>I also have an opinion (no evidence-just an opinion) that having a sibling or parent in a service academy or graduate is a factor for determing admissions.</p>
