Not the home of record of the military parent, not the state where they may be gonig to high school, they are only allowed to be nominated from within the state of THEIR legal residence (the candidate's). Further, any son/daughter of career military is eligible for a presidential nomination. I have been a blue and gold officer for 20 yrs and have seen a lot of noms be applied for. <br />And living in an area of Northern NJ where there are many great high schools, I can tell you that it takes around 700's to be really competitiveOldRetSWOnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-85829968898780856382010-09-14T19:58:26.000-04:002010-09-14T19:58:26.000-04:00Another part of your post bothered me - "<...Another part of your post bothered me - "<span>We make them drink the cool aid that our way is the right way" While I agree Liberty and the principles that make up Western Civilization are truly they way everyone should live, I don't think "make them drink the cool aid" is the answer. That is just another form of Tyranny. Like I said before, if the people in a nation want freedom we support them completely. If the people want to be communist, we isolate them and support the dissidents. But going in there to force them to drink the cool aid is once again an overreach and will only foster hate of America.

How do you fight that? I mean they are just sending some money for a cause they support even though they are living in western country. And what about the underwear bomber? He was living in a million dollar flat in London, he had a roof over his head, three squares a day and still wanted to blow us up. I am not really concerned about the goat herder in Iran that is just trying to survive. I am more worried about the German who wants some of that old time religion and Sharia law. That person doesn't give a hoot that we are stabilizing regions around the world. I personnally would like a lot more stabilization in our country too - like end entitlements, cuts taxes, reduce the size of government and let me live my life and raise my family my way. Let us be an example to the world by having freedom in America and stop sending foreign aid that is wasted. Foreign aid should be from American charities and not tools of the American ruling elites.<br />What is our strategic mission? That is what we need to decide.Skully96noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-1136547178619967142010-09-14T08:00:56.000-04:002010-09-14T08:00:56.000-04:00I'll make it real simple for you: doing a huma...I'll make it real simple for you: doing a humanitarian mission makes us the good guys. One we have established ourselves as the good guys we send in guys in black pajamas to quietly and effectively deal with rising problems. We send in training teams of guys of guys with big guns to teach them how to do it themselves next time. We make them drink the cool aid that our way is the right way. We stabilize a region before it hits critical breakdown levels and keep insurgencies to a minimum because people with a roof and three squares are on the whole not interested in blowing themselves up for Allah. We are no longer in the age of sovereign satate vs so sovereign state warfare. We are fighting subgroups and humanitarian efforts and hearts and minds campaigns have a direct impact on our strategic missions.

Are you working for Darfur against the Islamists that are killing there? Are you working for Tibet as the Chinese work to displace and replace the Tibetans? Are you working for Burma and against the military government there?<br />I do think we should support those that rise up for freedom in their own country and we should support them fully with anything they need. We should have support the people of Iran when they struggle against their leaders, but I do not think we need to bail our every country. Why don't we let the UN try to do it?<br />Our long term interests would be better served by letting Europe pay for its own defense and letting the world see the UN for the failure it is.<br />I also think we need to defend our country first, such as the southern border, we need to stop ceding land to the drug lords there.Skully96noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-1466170254623706002010-09-12T21:47:40.000-04:002010-09-12T21:47:40.000-04:00Mass genocide tends not to go over as well in the ...Mass genocide tends not to go over as well in the age of global media.

I used to think we should go out and confront the world's problems, but I think now we would be better off supporting our true allies, bring the Army home to guard our borders and strengthen the Navy to meet the threats overseas. Tell our enemies "you attack Americans, the Navy will be pulling up to reduce your country to rubble and then we will help you rebuild." Not saying oh let us throw all this aid your way for nothing and then you can stab us in the back in a few years.

USNA Mids should be (and generally are) held accountable for the performance of the people in their squads, platoons, companies, etc. like officer trainees are in every other training command. A few years back one of my former DHs was a Battalion Officer there and that's how he ran his Battalion. I got the impression that he wasn't the only one doing things that way. I will grant you that decision making has tended to migrate upward, as last year's color guard fiasco demonstrated, but now would be a perfect time to force it back downwards where it belongs.<br /><br />Even if you are correct, so what? The 3-star responsible for overruling the Honor Board is gone as are the past two Commandants, and the Call Girl FSO. The new Supe has a mandate to fix the Honor Program and, I'd bet, many other things as well. The fact that his predecessor was fired will tend to focus his mind. My point is that the new leadership has an opportunity to set the standards, communicate them, and hold the midshipmen accountable. Again it's part of their training. If I was able to do it at an NROTC unit, I suspect they'll be able to do it at USNA.C-dore 14noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-352424852798115902010-09-12T01:11:15.000-04:002010-09-12T01:11:15.000-04:00no no, that's the EOD det. :)no no, that's the EOD det. :)Curtisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-1343286932757331232010-09-12T01:07:19.000-04:002010-09-12T01:07:19.000-04:00Sir,

The only ones running the zoo these days are the flag officer and every single soul knows that to be true there. My experience there is limited to sailing against them and observing the continuing decline of their skill, character and leadership over the last 30 years. The Food Officer was a Call Girl!!!!<br /><br />Yes, at one time the Brigade ruled on honor, duty and conviction but that hasn't been true since Vietnam. Every single lot of them ruled to shunt the last bastard out and the 3 star set it all aside until the football coach decided enough was enough with that dirtbag, kicked him off the team and he was then left to the tender mercies of the smoochies at the naval academy.<br /><br />There's something to be said about an institution when it becomes known mostly for accomodating dirtbags, rapists, call girls and the kind of officers that tolerate such.Curtisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-63876903648779880782010-09-12T00:56:29.000-04:002010-09-12T00:56:29.000-04:00Hard to believe you weren't ever Fleet.

I understand a "Global Force for Good" is the new PR line, but when did the Navy become more concerned about the world's issues than our national interests? I think we should be more concerned about showing the flag and power projection ashore when we are threatened. The Navy should be "Flying the American Flag where ever needed" and not bailing out every third world country. Unless of course ithe goal is turn us into a third world Navy, and that goal is being acheived with our current status.Skully96noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-88425711053538324012010-09-11T21:11:23.000-04:002010-09-11T21:11:23.000-04:00Curtis, that is not idealism; it is the bare minim...Curtis, that is not idealism; it is the bare minimum required for an ensign.
