I think he said that he met Westmoreland (confirmed) who told him to apply, or made an offer (unconfirmed), however you want to phrase it.

I remember receiving a letter from West Point when I was graduating which I interpreted as an offer of a full scholarship, which isn’t exactly true, since everyone who goes doesn’t have to pay.

I believe your right, but to the larger point why does anyone think it important at all? I don't really think I like Carson much at all as a candidate and will not vote for him in a primary.

Unless they compare his "lies" to Obama's or Hillary's, it dang sure isn't important.
