Us ROTC grads like to rag on the Academy guys for various reasons, but in the end we know what it takes to get into the Academy and to get through it and we respect that.
Respect it yes, but could respect it more. Was there for a visit 20 years ago. It was Feb or Mar and couldn't believe how the freshmen could sit on all of their seat during meals and not only got second portions before offering more to an active duty officer at the table, but got a salad and dessert as well! Felt like I was at a football players' table.
