There is a certain amount of shock to the transition from high school to USNA. And I can still remember that first day. But, you learn alot about yourself and about others. And, there are lots of interesting, clever, challenging and fun things that do go on. The education was fine and the subsequent training for operating a nuclear submarine kept me busy but was not at all out of reach. Between USNA and submarines though, you learn that things have to make sense and you can't run anything on hope. You have to understand your equipment, your coworkers and yourself. They all have limitations. I am glad I went there. In contrast to the feelings towards the social life... sure we couldn't drink, but there were so many social functions that I couldn't keep up. Consider USNA if you don't mind working and want more responsibility than you can ever imagine. Two final thoughts... Too often LEADERSHIP is overrated. Sure, it has its place, but TEAMWORK is as important or perhaps even more important. Being on a good team is fun, no matter what your position is. And, the navy, like most other organizations is a good outfit. It will be the people you work with... that will make it good or bad. Always look to make any effort: safe, effective and fun.
