Interesting discussion.........it strikes me as one of those "I had to walk to school in the snow, up hill, both ways" when I was your age kid.
I was a tweet IP at Willie in the early 80s, did a staff tour at Randolph and finished up at ENJJPT (Sheppard) in the mid 90s. I can't remember any class I was ever with (including my own) where we lost more than 2 or 3 guys. ENJJPT was a little different since guys there were hand selected, but as the US SNR it was rare for me to sit on a board. In fact, attrition was worse on the european side. Plus, to the amazement of the Germans, the US always took the big prizes at graduation.
Now, I took early retirement in 95 and don't know about the SNAPs......so I'll take your word for them
