His mother said his patriotism started early, when as a young kid the family visited Hawaii and she explained to him how Japan had attacked Pearl Harbor.

He should be proud to be eligible for entry into four schools that Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch would not qualify even as a waiter in the dining halls.

When I saw the name "Park", my first inclination was to wonder if he was of Korean descent.

Methinks, yup !

Waitin' for you to be part of our team, young man.

What a wonderful story. We hear so much about the 19 and 20 year olds who are living off Welfare while they attend anarchist riots and trash property, its good to be reminded of kids like this.

“It’s about one percent, if not less,” Park said. “Of the whole country.”

Ya think?

Hope he continues with his excellent choices in life and..

Amazing. My guess is his parents took an active role in his schooling. Unlike parents who couldn’t care less.

Doesn't this require a congressional appointment? So did the Congressman appoint him for all four academies?

Either way, there are obviously four first alternate candidates who are all hoping that he chooses to attend the academy that they weren't applying for.

Four Service Academies? That’s one hell of a commute. :-)

[Ouchthatonehurt]

Bravo!
Great example for all of us. I’m guessing good parents too.

"Wherever the teen decides to attend, his tuition will be free..."

During my Plebe Summer at the Naval Academy, it was framed somewhat differently ...

"Here at Annapolis, we're getting free tuition worth $20,000 per year ... shoved one nickel after another up our @$$."

Last year, our kid’s school had a graduate get three appointments. He decided to go Air Force.

Technically - it would be more correct to say that this individual RECEIVED FOUR OFFERS OF APPOINTMENT - one to each of the 4 service academies.

The OFFER of APPOINTMENT is NOT ‘effective’ unless the offer is accepted. He can’t accept 4 appointments, only 1. So - he will be appointed to 1 service academy....West Point appears to be his first choice.

A better title would be “VA Teen offered Appointments to all 4 US Military Academies.”

Tough decision!
