A second cadet has been found dead at the U.S. Air Force Academy, days after officials reported that a “firstie” who was due to graduate in May had died.
Cadets and staff were told in an online briefing on Saturday of the latest death at the Colorado Springs, Colo.-based academy, several members of the institution’s community told Stars and Stripes, asking not to be named because they were not authorized to comment on the incident.

A “senior”, in the collegiate sense, is my understanding. Graduation year.

What’s odd is there still in those dormitories. I know at the naval academy they are cramped old and probably not safe for a virus. Air Force buildings are younger but still 1948 it was open.

The story says they sent years 1 thru 3 home and kept year 4 students one per room plus online classes only.

Were they being tested?
If so they might have been worried about what other things the tests might have shown.

I would suspect speed & caffeine drinks. Studying can get rather intense at the academies as finals approach. Any other reason and they’d probably report to the infirmary.

The Academy’s mission is to train officers and warfighters to protect this country.No, the current mission of the Air Force Academy is to promote diversity and inclusion particularly in the area of sexual practices.

Yes, the first mission is under the same attack by those that totally destroyed the boy scouts of America.
These were women, girls, and homosexuals. And do throw in commies, socialists, radical feminists and their war against males and manhood.
