A Year In The Blue
“The most realistic portrayal of the cadet journey ever filmed.”
- Association of Graduates
"Realistic, hopeful, and very informative... I highly recommend it for all who are pursuing one of the academies whether it is the Air Force or not. There is much rigor that goes into getting in the Air Force Academy and it would serve a candidate well to see the documentary before they have made their final decision about college."
- Susan Chritton, Executive Career Coach and Author, "Personal Branding for Dummies
"An eye-opener...If you're interested in the inner workings of the military's most elite academy...then you should absolutely check ["A Year in the Blue"] out."

Synopsis: A Year in the Blue portrays the life inside the Academy - the heartbreaks and triumphs of balancing military training, a rigorous four-year college education, mandatory athletics, and more. This 105-minute documentary dives inside the lives of a small group of freshman cadets at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado and witnesses the tough challenges these cadets must endure to make it through their grueling first year. They dreamed of becoming pilots and officers, but find themselves slogging through mud and barbed wire on the assault course and chasing through the sweltering summer heat in combat exercises. |
