Recommendations for someone going into the academy.

So im unsure if this is the correct place to ask, but I thought its worth a try. My younger brother is going to the naval academy/prep school after his graduation. I was wondering what would be some recommendations of things he might appreciate while he is going though the prep school/academy? I know there is limitations on what he can and cant have, but is there anything that he can have that would be beneficial?

Thank you in advance to anyone with any insight or help!

Is he bringing a car or no car? Car can be loaded with whatever. Couple things I bought for my kid that made life easier was a laptop and a kindle notepad.

As far as I know he will be if he can, he needs a way to get there. Thats a good idea.
