Peers

<p>I'm the first one in 15+ years. But I think we will have more soon... after I got in, a lot of younger people who knew me decided they wanted to apply. Nice to know you inspired your younger peers :) I'm now getting flooded with emails and discussions in the hallways from curious younger people who want to apply in the next couple of years.</p>

<p>My high school has a class of around 500. We don't usually have students going to the academies, so I had multiple interviews from the yearbook. When prospective students have questions about the academies and the counselors doesn't know the answer (most of the time), they will tell them to ask me and they just randomly appear.</p>

<p>We have about 250 in my senior class. Three of us are going to USAFA this year and we had one go to West Point last year, and one go to West Point two years before that, I'm not sure of the exact history before that, but I am pretty sure we have one go every couple of years.</p>
