“Am I alone in being concerned that a lot of us middle-aged nobodies are going to pull through from social distancing but our nations pool of future military leaders are this fragile?”
I with you 1000%! How the HELL do people like this get into the AF Acadamy? Aren’t they screened for these sorts of things?
Back in my day, what was more important for service academies was not a high GPA or participation in certain clubs but an endorsement letter from a congressman or senator. I kid you not. Someone in my HS graduating class wanted to get into the AFA but first needed to get the endorsement of his congressman which I understand was very difficult and why he gave up on the idea eventually.
