USAFA and Sam, Day 1



At least once a week, more if not too busy, I'll make a post for all to read, view pictures and other interesting bits of information for all to gander at.

Samantha departed BWI for Colorado Springs, CO and the Air Force Academy on 06-25-08.

1,373 apponities were in route to the Academy in total.

Sams first day of training, (BCT) Basic Cadet Training started on 06-26-08.

On the second day of training the incoming Basics or Beasts, depending on who you talked to, took the oath of allegence in a massive swearing in ceremony. By this time 1,348 Cadets took that oath to Protect and Defend you and I. Thanks Sam!!!!!!!!

Sam getting ready to hydrate on her arrival at the Academy. She spent her first night with a host family prior to checking in. Looks like she's happy for the moment. Oh the fun shall begin.

I shall attempt to improve on this as the year goes by.



Marching to the dorms. Watching the feet in front of them to keep in step.










OK, that's it for my first attempt. Enjoy, I'll try to get better.
