Maybe one of the military academies? Don't forget the Coast Guard. They have one of their own, at least they did unless they have made that great branch part of the Post Office or something now days.

They say "Semper Paratus" .

I don't know what it means, I was just an Army Warrant. It's foreign or something, like that thing jarheads say.

LOL. I was USCG enlisted. Semper paratus = always ready, kinda like the boy scout motto. Pretty weak.

Yeah, both of my twins want to fly USCG helos. We live not far from USCG academy, but it’s the hardest to get into, so she’s open to settling for Annapolis, Hudson High (army) or that place out in ugly colorado.

This one is tough. she qualified for USSA nationals in swimming in the under-10 freestyle and backstroke, she’s a varsity cheerleader as a freashman, pitcher (captain) and third base on her school team as an 8th grader, we just need to work on grades.

She’s very focused. It makes my job as a single dad that much easier.

She also knows I’ll buy her a car if she gets a full ride scholarship, but she wants a military scholarship.

She wants to fly helos (one of her great uncles was top 10 flight hours in Viet nam), but wants to be a military attorney. I wish she could do both!
