I am the Bobby McBride that wrote “Everything I ever needed to know I learned as a helicopter crewman in Vietnam”. The submitter of this article did not contact me to obtain permission to use it, nor did she request permission to change the wording.

I wrote this to honor the Vietnam Helicopter Veterans. They, and only they, can truly appreciate what I was saying.

- My apologies. It was copied by one of our bloggers from a different website years ago (about a decade), definitely with the intention of being respectful. I will delete it. Thanks for letting me know, Bobby.

What’s in this blog

You absolutely gotta get into the Naval Academy? Start here. Find out why you should want to attend USNA, how to get in, what's the lifestyle, how to get started, problem-solving if you're stalled. Post questions for your unique situation.

A personal note:
When my daughter wanted a book on how to get into the Naval Academy, all she could find were books that told her how hard it was, how selective they were, how very few could achieve it. My daughter brushed them off, but I wondered how many kids would be discouraged by that approach and decided to write a book explaining how to achieve the goal, not why kids couldn’t. I stressed how teens can solve the problems that stood in their way rather than why they couldn’t, how they could get where they wanted to go rather than why they couldn’t get there. That worked for my daughter and I had no doubt it would work for others. From what I hear from readers, it’s true.
