One proud Dad!

I know this is a little off topic but I have to share this with you all. Yesterday we completed my oldest son's (Cody) Eagle project:D We have been active in the Scouts for 11 years and now the end is in sight! Cody also wants to go to West Point so we are working like crazy to get one of the coveted nominations. So if anyone has some advice or can pull some strings, I'm all ears:D

One very proud Dad[^]

Clay, I got your email.http://www.uniquecobra.com/uploaded/...8eagle (2).jpghttp://www.uniquecobra.com/uploaded/...8eagle (2).jpg

Well, I had a picture to post but something here in this forum will not let me post it:( I posted the same picture on a different forum[xx(]

Kelly - Congrats to your son! As an Eagle Scout and USMA grad myself, I know you are very proud! Where do you live? I might be able to lend some direction on nominations, info, etc.

We are in Texas below Houston. Any and all help is appreciated!

Bitten,

I don't know much about Eagle Scouts, let alone West Point..... but you have to be one proud papa.

Aren't kids grand - Congratulations!

Kelly, congratulations to your son Cody and your family!

My brother (also an Eagle Scout and USMA grad) just left the Army from Ft. Hood to join the FBI. He and I followed a slightly different path than most - we enlisted at age 17 and both received Dept of the Army nominations. A GREAT place for you to start is with the local West Point Parents Club to get information about how they received nominations, learn about the Academy, etc..

Congragulations Kelly to you, your son and the whole family. I know how much work is involved from both sides. It is definetly a full effort from everyone in the family. I am also an Eagle Scout and in the middle of trying to get my son through to his. Great job and good luck on getting him a nomination to West Point.

Thanks everyone! I'm going to try again to post a pic.http://www.uniquecobra.com/uploaded/...8eagle (2).jpg

Kelly, e-mail me the picture, and I'll check the size, modify it if necessary, and post it for you.

Wow! Eagle scout and going to the academy. Are you sure this is YOUR offspring;)

I was in scouts and was going to the Air force academy. Then latter portion of puberty hit hard and all that was out the door!

You have got to be proud! I would be pleased if I could get my son to bathe on a regular basis[V]

Clay, you have mail.

Looks like a fine-looking future U.S. Army officer to me!
