My Family attended a Breakfast on Saturday held by our Congressman for his Class of 2020 Nominees he had selected .
Among the Appointees and the few Nominees that attended, there was a West Point Class of 2020 Appointee who made it after his 4th Try !!!
Congressman asked this Kid if he would say a few words of inspiration to the Nominees who still decided to attend the gathering, but did not get an Appointment.
This new USMA Appointee stated that going to WP was a dream of his since grade school. He said he just knew he could do it if he worked hard enough and didn't quit. He did say after the third time he was denied, he reflected heavily before doing his fourth Application. Everyone wanted to just go up afterward and shake his hand. His parents were bursting at the recognition that morning.
He was awe inspiring and will be a huge leadership asset to the entire USMA Class of 2020.
