Title: Got recruiting orders
Post by: rb30dett on December 21, 2011, 02:23:54 PM
Well as some of you know, I'm in the Marines and I have recruiting orders.  Right now I,m in southern California which has been a blast; great for those anytime rides down the 5, in the mountains, or cruizing the PCH.  I don't know where I'll end up. I should find out in April.  Wish me luck. Maybe some of us social guys can get together for a ride sometime.

I'm too much of a pain in the ass. Even the Marines wouldn't want me. ;D

Naw I spent the years of my youth giving Marines rides in airplanes. I'm too old now. Recruitment duty sounds nice though.

Sorry, Annapolis missed their shot at me @ 27 years ago and I ended up going to the better school. ;D

After a break, Nat'l Guard caught up to me a few years ago and reeled me back in.

If football is any indication, then the cadets are about 10 years behind the best school.

Loyola Chicago #395

Can't put too much stock in that list... for some reason they think that Annapolis MD is in the south.

But if football isn't a good enough measure... http://www.usna.edu/admissions/Notables/Astronauts/index.htm (http://www.usna.edu/admissions/Notables/Astronauts/index.htm)

I can see Purdue at #311 overall considering some of the degrees we offer... but when you look at the STEM disciplines, we rank way up there.
