The Next Class of Leaders

The son of good friends of mine recently graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. He very quickly was sent to his new station in a country that I cannot disclose. His specialty is military intelligence although that isn't what they call the degree. He is an impressive young man. Very poised and intelligent.

The next class of future officers just now headed off to the various military academies. They are the future leaders -- not only of the military services, but of our country. I wish them the best. They, along with many other fine young men and women who will be seeking careers in other areas, give me the sense that the future of our country is in good hands. They deserve our support as they commence this new phase of their life.
