West Point Class of 2024 Armor Post Night
USMA Class of 2024 Armor cadets choose their U.S. Army posts during Post Night at the U.S. Military Academy, February 28, 2024. Cadets will report to their chosen posts after commissioning and graduating from the Basic Officer Leaders Course.
The U.S. Military Academy at West Point's mission is "to educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the Nation as an officer in the United States Army."

Why is the armor branch rep wearing combat jump wings and the screaming eagles unit patch? Shouldn't he be armor not infantry/airborne.
Still baffled by so many people sleeping on Bliss as their first duty station and opting for Fort Cavazos instead. I notice this trend every year. I know why I chose 2/1CD as a 2LT, but that was because we were all chasing deployments to Afghanistan during GWOT. Why do so many Armor LTs today prefer Fort Cav to Fort Bliss?

Same goes for Riley. It's a great post, good unit, and Manhattan, KS is a nice college town (certainly leaps and bounds above Highland Falls). Everyone will have the same OPTEMPO and deployments regardless of unit, so I'm just curious what the thought process is.

Bliss is pretty bad. Hood is way worse. I don't understand why the Germany assignments didn't get snatched up. Or the Airborne assignments. ACR assignments too.
talk about a bad comb over!

From what I’ve seen it seems like it’s only the combat arms folks that they broadcast
Look at the Seal Database 😊 when shaving
I am German; do graduates choose their first job there? And if so, is this linked to the performance achieved during training? Germany would need a system like that -
T90 Crew: 3 + 1 Commander, He - Projectiles
T90 Soviet 6 inch steel frame, 57mm 12 foot bore
Friend, how can a Latino enter West-Point?❤

Be from communist Venezuela or Cuba. West Point transitioned to Marxist ideology.
What is PASDO?

PADSO is an additional duty service obligation (ADSO) for a post (P). You basically incur 3 additional years of mandatory service for a PADSO post. They're usually highly sought after posts, like Hawaii, Germany, etc. so some of the people at higher class ranks end up trading 3 additional years for a better first post. However most of people don't chose PADSO unless they want to pursue military career.
Gentlemen, I can personally understand losing one's conviction regarding "duty," perhaps even "country," but to remove "honor," from the code ensures that you will only produce the worst of people willing to kill and lead other men to do the same, for what some politician finds convenient in that moment. Shameful. Even after I voluntarily separated from the academy, after learning what I needed too; the idea that West Point stands (stood) for HONOR gives me chills. The new motto is ridiculous and being devoid of honor, its most important virtue, and the primary reason I attended to begin with, I am now embarrassed to be associated with that institution. Return HONOR to the motto or USMA will stand for the worst of the worst. Ya'll have lost your way, please correct course. God Bless

"Honor" is one of the Army Values cited

@@ThomasDohertyJD Honor transcends "Army Values," by orders of magnitude. Army Values are subject to change, Honor is not. Without Honor, duty and country are worthless. The motto needs to be restored. What say you sir?

It still is their motto. It’s just not in the mission statement.
Dude just accept it and shave your head

was just saying that, looks aweful.
What a shame to delete duty, honor and country from mission statement. Every cadet should make known their disgust.
