Off to the Academy

**ncelectric** · 06-24-2012, 11:55 AM

It has been great being on the forum, but wednesday I am off to the Air Force Academy! I took one year of college with one semester in Cali and another here in Ohio and it was fun, but it's time to get serious. The next four years will go by fast, and I intend on checking in every now and again.
Thanks for the good times on here; I will be back on here full time when I'm graduated.

Grats dude!!!!

There are some forum bros on here from the Springs and I still know many musicians from there. Feel free to hit me up anytime.

**Bastardo** · 06-24-2012, 12:27 PM

Best of luck dude...

**sprocket226** · 06-24-2012, 12:37 PM

Have fun man, stay safe...
I did 4 years in the USAF, in hindsight, wish I did more.
Hope you get shipped to Lackland to spend some time with the airman recuits!

If you want, I'll PM you my address, so I can keep and eye on a Kramer or two!
What are you going after?

**KickstartMyHeart** · 06-24-2012, 12:37 PM

All the best for you, sir!

**ncelectric** · 06-24-2012, 12:51 PM

Thanks guys! I am leaning toward majoring in electrical engineering, and then perusing my masters afterward. Education these days pays off. I am quite excited.
If anyone in the springs area would like to swap contact info please send me a pm, because it's great to have contacts!

All the best buddy

Yeah he's going to see the Eagle, not the Tom-Cat.

I'd say Raptor, but the Eagle is more battle tested.
Plus I've had a F-15 fly over my head in full afterburner, and every freakin' hair on my body stood right up!

You're like "Holy shit, I'm glad that's on my side"
One bad-ass plane right there!

good for you! we'll be here when you check back in. see you later, dude:

**fett** · 06-24-2012, 05:25 PM

Just because he's going to be a Junior Birdman, doesn't mean he can't check in here. Congrats. It's nice to see a young pup who knows where he is going.

**amerturk** · 06-24-2012, 05:38 PM

...and not an easy task to do. One just doesn't say he is going to go to school there. It's a long process to include congressional approval for each student candidate.

One hell of a thing to be accepted in to. Congrats.

...and Spocket...."Whynot Minot"?....everyone's worst nightmare.

Freezin's the reason!

Read somewhere that ND has the most millionaires per capita than any other state in the US now, oil I guess.

With a population of 249 people and one millionaire, I guess that's pretty cool.

I knew a chick from there. She was from the "slapahoe" tribe....meaner than hell!

Last day gents! Guitars their cases...until they can come out to CO! Grandparents are building a house 1hr from the Academy and my sponsor family has musicians (plays a 50's fender esquire!) they will be a nice escape on a free weekend! Cheers

That´s correct, sir. Just like that tune so much and couldn´t think of a proper thing that is Air Force related

**mrwhipper** · 06-26-2012, 02:14 PM

I am sorry that I missed this thread earlier. CONGRATS and I wish you the best of luck! What an honor to get accepted there. Thank you for your future service. Please pop back on here every now and then to let us know how you are making out.

**ncelectric** · 07-15-2012, 09:09 AM

It's doolie day out! Finished with 1st BCT and have the day off base to spend time with my family. Maybe to some surprise I actually enjoyed it...now looking forward to Jacks Valley tomorrow and for the next 2 weeks. I will be back on here after that. Hopefully you all here are doing well! I sure am.

**Full Crib** · 07-15-2012, 09:13 AM

Go get'm Tiger! and congratulations on making the grade to get there.

**KenHeartsKramer** · 07-15-2012, 07:15 PM

Sorry I missed this thread earlier. Congrats and best of luck at the Academy!

**ncelectric** · 08-06-2012, 04:48 PM

Made it through BCT. Was acturally fun, especially Jack's Valley. Anyway, I won't be spending much time here as academics will be top priority; but I will be in from time to time saying hi and throwing in my 2cents. Maybe also buying/selling things. Cheers guys, I hope everyone is doing well!

**warbrill** · 08-06-2012, 05:54 PM

Lots of Colorado folks on this forum ... keep in touch. Thanks for all you do and stay safe.

**dodkrone** · 08-06-2012, 06:12 PM
