      You also need a nomination from a source such as a member of congress , the president or vice president. Usually applicants get nominations from their state rep in congress to help them. The acceptance rate each year is very low so it is a huge deal to attend an academy .

      West Point is one of the world's premier civil engineering schools. The Naval Academy has one of the world's premier History programs. The Air force Academy has the world's only class that teaches you how to properly sit in a chair. I think that class is mandatory.

    You asked “so these are colleges;” the service academies are some of the finest universities in the world. They produce well educated commissioned officers with 4 year bachelor’s degrees, and upon graduation they become active duty officers. It is way beyond highly selective to be able to get into a service academy. The football is only secondary and all of the cadets and midshipmen are on “scholarship,” not just the football players.

    The Army-Navy Game is played by the military academy of West Pointe (Army) and the Naval Academy. Think of them as universities where ALL of the students have signed up to join the military, and once they graduate they go into the military or navy as officers. The universities are ran by the military, so the instructors are all military service members as well, and the curriculum combines military training and advanced university courses. The kids who go there are SMART, and they have A LOT of work - think of them as military versions of Harvard and Yale. There have been several presidents and other high profile leaders who graduated from these academies, especially West Pointe.

    I love the Army-Navy game. We give it a special place on the college football calendar, with the game being played the week after the conference championships so its the only game that day. There is so much tradition and pageantry in the game, but even more than that its just amazing to watch these guys who gave up having the fun athlete experience at a normal college to instead take a much harder path. During the game they show the service assignments of the seniors, and seeing that it really hits you that many of these guys playing on national TV in front of a crowd of 50,000+ will, in 6 months time, be sent to every far off corner of the world to defend our country. There really is nothing else like it.

    Applying to the military academies is the hardest college application that will ever be completed. The references and academic requirements are at the highest levels.

    Normal civilians can go because I got to go to this past year (which the second video was the intro for). The single coolest football game experience in the United States. I've been to multiple SEC football stadiums, the Rose Bowl, the Cotton Bowl, but absolutely nothing compares to going to the Army-Navy Game. There's nothing like it. One of those games everyone who can needs to go to. You hear the expression "Sing Second" because both teams gather after the game for the singing of both schools' alma mater songs, starting with the team who loses the game first, then the winner second. The excitement of the supporters for the winners is so great to be around. I sat with Navy supporters and their excitement to sing after losing the past three years was so great.

    The greatest rivalry in college football. Though it no longer has implications on the national championship game like it did in the past, it's still a big deal.
    Think of it like this... somewhere around the world there is a person who has no interest in American football. Doesn't care about or cheer for either Alabama or Auburn. Florida, Florida State, or Miami. Michigan or Ohio State. But this person's two grandfathers each served their country. One in the Army and the other in the Navy. This person likes one grandfather better than the other. That individual will cheer for the service of their favorite grandfather.
    Even someone in your situation for example, because of your engagement to a Marine, you may choose to root for Navy over Army. It's because of situations like those, there are more people interested in the outcome of the Army/Navy game than any state or regional rivalry.

    These are two of our five military academies. It is four years of college for very bright people who will be officers when they graduate. But it is miltary training and classwork and whatever rank you attain in your class is something that can follow a military officer for as long as he lives so it is highly competitive during those four years. The Army is at West Point, in West Point, NY. The Navy is at Annapolis in Annapolis, Maryland.

    I grew up in Arizona, and we are so proud of our Pat Tillman. He played college football here and then played pro in Arizona too. He is a national hero. Another notable arizonan with ties to the military is Lori Piestewa... no ties to football, but a true hero to us here in Arizona.

    As a U.S. Navy Veteran, on Navy-Army Game day it seems the world stops for 3 hours. Like Brian Braswell said in his post, "This is THE only game where everyone on the field is willing to fight for everyone in the stands". I would add and they fight for everyone watching on T.V. or listening on the radio or on the internet. We have a saying in the U.S. Military, "We are the few who chose to write a 'check' to the Citizens of the United States of America up to and including my life". I am so proud to call myself a United States Navy Veteran. The Greatest Navy in the World!! As John F. Kennedy once said "Ask not what your country can do for you, Ask what can you do for your country!" My paternal Grandfather and I and some of my cousins can say that "I served in This Country's Military Forces". To anyone who is thinking about enlisting into the Military in whatever country you are in, go and try and search for a veterans organization and ask them why did they join? If you do enlist, you will make friends to last a lifetime.
    GO NAVY!!!! BEAT ARMY!!!! FEAR THE GOAT!!!!

    What has me confused is the names of the Academies. We all accept the US Military Academy @ West Point, so why not the US Military Academy @ Annapolis; US Air Force Academy in Colorado; US Coast Guard Academy @ New London, CT.

  • @RubyGB
    @RubyGB Год назад

    The service academies are federal institutions that provide an undergraduate education and train future commissioned officers for service in the U, S. Armed Forces. Applying to a Military Service Academy is a rigorous, highly competitive, and lengthy process only for the most determined and qualified candidates. They are the U.S. Military Academy at West Point (Army) at West Point NY, the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis MD, the U.S. Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs CO, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy at New London CT, and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point NY. To apply prospective students must obtain an official nomination from a United States Congressperson (except Coast Guard). Students (cadets) receive free tuition, books, room and board, medical and dental care, along with a monthly stipend to cover any other living expenses IN EXCHANGE FOR AN ACTIVE DUTY OBLIGATION (after graduation they are commissioned as the lowest rank of commissioned officer in their branch of service). The service obligation is 8 years currently with at least 5 years on active duty and the remaining 3 in the inactive reserve. Different careers in the military may require different time commitments after graduation, however.
    As for the academy lifestyle, you can expect to have a pretty structured schedule that is strict, conservative, and requires lots of discipline. Cadets are often not able to leave campus unless permission is granted and there are also strict rules in place. Students must participate in mandatory activities from 6 in the morning to 8 in the evening, then finish homework and study after those hours. In addition, cadets must stay on top of their physical endurance and participate in intramural or varsity sports.

    Hi Coutney! I'm the person (or at least one of) that sent those two videos to you. I have posted my recommendations for follow-up on your web page. In the description, I forgot to post a small glossary of terms that you might need to know.
    "March On" - Each academy's entire student body (Corp of Cadets = Army, Brigade of Midshipmen = Navy)
    "Prisoner Exchange" Those who attended the opposing academy as Exchange Students are ceremoniously sent back to their respective home academy prior to the game.
    "Singing Second" Refers to the Alma Maters. At the end of the game, the players of both schools stand before each of the student bodies, in turn and sing that school's Alma Mater. The losing team sings first. The winning team sings second.
    "Naptown" = Annapolis, home of the Naval Academy.

  • @michaelevans1193

    Each branch of the military has their own academy. Navy/Marine Corps is in Annapolis Maryland. Army is in West Point New York. Air Force is in Colorado Springs Colorado. The Coast Guard is in New London Connecticut. The Merchant Marine is in Kings Point New York. The Coast Guard and Merchant Marines are not military academies, since neither service falls under Department of Defense (DOD), but both are service academies.
    Each academy is a university with requirements similar to a normal university, but they have additional requirements both academically and otherwise as well as post-graduation requirements as well. Applicants must receive a nomination from a member of Congress, who only get one per year. It is truly the best of the best at each academy.
    For football, Air Force, Army and Navy compete for the Commander-in-Chief’s trophy. Note, the President is also the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. While both Army and Navy play Air Force each year, the Army-Navy game is unique. It is typically played in Philadelphia (about 1/2 way between the two campuses) and is the last regular season game played.
    Many believe that it is the perfect college football game because the teams are usually evenly matched; fundamentals and disciplined play are emphasized (naturally); few, if any players will play professionally; and at the end of the game both teams line up to salute the Alma Mater (school song) of first the winning team and then the other as a show of respect.

    • @FUBAR956

      You were so close in your summary. The team that loses has their Alma Mater played first. If you watch the broadcast everyone makes a big deal about "singing second". But this doesn't just happen for Army Navy football. The Alma Maters get played after every single sporting event between Army and Navy throughout the year.

    As a 20 year military veteran, I offer this information: The vetting process for entry in to any US Military Academy has to be of the highest standards (Not everyone who applies is accepted), Army is at West Point, New York (Called the US Military Academy at West Point), The Naval Academy is in Annapolis, Maryland. Army graduates are commissioned officers at the grade on Second Lieutenant,
    Naval Academy graduates are Commissioned Officers as US Navy Ensigns and US Marine Second Lieutenants, a four year active duty commitment is required upon graduation/commissioning. You should consider watching the "March On" of the men and women from both academies, which takes place prior to the game that is played in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It's very impressive.

The academies are where most of the officers are trained and educated to serve and lead the enlisted.

    The Army/Navy game is always held in Philadelphia in December. There is usually snow and freezing temperatures.

      It doesn't take connections to get a congressional nomination. You have to interview in front of a panel and they evaluate you based on your resume and ability to answer questions during that environment. Army is the Black Knights, the Golden Knights is UCF. Army's mascot is a mule named Black Jack; Navy's is a Goat named Bill. The game is most often played in Philadelphia, but it has been played in DC, New York, Boston, Baltimore.

    The Army and Navy academies are free money-wise, in fact you are actually paid a small stipend. Instead of paying for tuition you pay with years of service. Other colleges give scholarships to athletes, a free education for your sacrifice on the field. The game is so rich with tradition. Like the prisoner exchange ruclips.net/video/A48A4zUzezk/видео.html , Singing their fight songs (winner sings second) ruclips.net/video/rrsMc9AyLoU/видео.html, the game ball marathon relays, mascots, bonfires, and pushups every score.

    You have to have a congressional nomination to even be considered for entry to these schools (Air Force Academy too BTW). Without a 30 on your ACT you basically have no chance (slight exceptions are made for football recruits). These schools are realistically just as hard or harder to get into than Harvard or Yale.
