Howdy,
I know there may be a few USNA grads on this site, and I would like to know how you benefited from your academy experiance at any time in your life( if at all). Does it give you an "edge" at flight school and the fleet( nfo or pilot) ? I'm not asking if you would "do it again" or if its "a bad place to be, a good place to be from."
Also, for everybody in general, how are academy grads looked at in the fleet? I am assuming most assimilate into the mix easily, but I have heard rumors that some have gained a bad rep in one way or another.
Thanks for your input, I hope you don't flame on me too much. This is a great compendium of Naval Aviation knowledge.
