Thanks for this. My nephew is in the class of 2025. My mom grew up at Westpoint and her Dad was T.M. - the winning est coach in Westpoint history.

Mine too, we're all a bit nervous but super excited!
Respect
The level of discipline instilled is amazing. No wonder the US armed forces is miles apart. I cannot help but giggle at the comparison with Russians.

what can i do about it?
It seems they can’t wait to show potential enemies everything. Rule of thumb- If you can’t see something from the enemies’ sites, better not to show it.
The army seems so soft and gentle
Fc.
Those poor bald heads
I am terrified of the new Oath! It does not say DEFEND The Constitution, as well, and bear true allegiance to The National Government. There's something sinister going on in this. It does NOT bode well for the future of our country, that's for sure. Mine was "I will support and defend The Constitution of The United States from all enemies, foreign and domestic and that I shall bear true faith and allegiance to the same." This new one opens a lot of doors that should never be opened. If you are too obtuse to get the nuance of this, spare me your sophomoric and jejune responses.

It’s the same oath.
Time to shut down all the military academies. They produce only about 20% of the new officers, far more expensively than ROTC/OCS. Also, ROTC/OCS officers are far more well-rounded than academy graduates, from personal experience.

Watch this movie before spreading nonsense about service academies kzread.info/dash/bejne/mqaC1LSknrGaf5s.html. Troops were stationed at West Point before the U.S. even became a country.
