<p>OK, so what? That is no reason NOT to choose Air Force. Every academy has its die-hard supporters and they show up regularly on these forums.</p>
<p>Each of the academies has pros and cons. If you have to choose, (and what a position to be in) then ask yourself, what will make you the happiest? Air Force is a great route to go, even if you don’t fly. Our nephew loved it, and he’s not a pilot. West Point is great if you want to be in the Army. The school’s rather isolated from the world, you have to drive an hour to get anywhere, or so it seems. Air Force is right in Colorado Springs, lots to do for a quick getaway. But those are small things that won’t mean too much later on in life. What do you see yourself doing? An impossible question for any teenager to accurately answer. Go with your heart’s desire and you won’t have second thoughts.</p>
