I've heard that each of these acadamies are very interested in what color you truly want to wear, ie blue and gold, blue and silver, etc. I don't know why, but my son would rather go to West Point than Annapolis. Amazing to me, but he's a sharp kid and knows what he wants. There's more to it than flying for him. He studies military history (war generals, weapons and tactics), so he's in for the long run and wants to accomplish flying and more. I think that's the desire for West Point over Annapolis. He quotes Patton on his fb page, so you get the picture.

Your statement about your heart not being into it, was probably a tough decision knowing how hard it is to get an acceptance to any academy. Congrats and thanks for the info.
