USMA 2021 Class Motto

[USMA77]

To those of you joining the Class of 2021: Congratulations! Sometime between R-Day and march back from Camp Buckner in August your class will have to come up with a class motto which will become an integral part of your class identity.

Recent class mottos have included:

2017 So Others May Dream
2018 With Strength We Lead
2019 So Freedom Will Reign
2020 With Vision We Lead

Notice how 2020 seized on the 20/20 vision theme. For the Class of 2021, you will be the only class to graduate in the 21st Century with the year '21, hence there might be a theme there. Some of you might start thinking about it. Something like "Lead the Century".

Food for thought. . .

Why not "Twin Tee To Twin Tee 3" ? Make it count.

I came across one on an instagram post that I liked:
"Until Victory is Won, Class of 2021"

I don't like the fact that Won and One are homophones so they aren't really "different."

Someone mentioned this once in a group chat: "Stand as one, fall to none"

 

[USMA21]

Stand tall fear none

All for one
If we don't, who will?
From Ashes, We rise.

Blackjack, Full Attack - 21

 

[ans_usma'21]

We will sacrifice

From many, one

Let us have peace

For the future

Patrons of peace

It's in our hands

With Virtue We've Won - Class of 2021

 

[NYScout]

All for one
If we don't, who will?
From Ashes, We rise.

I like
"From ashes, we rise"

But there will also be many more solid suggestions.

@Kicker2021 I like the idea of using something card-related, nice catch.

I've seen some pretty good ideas on the USMA 2021 Facebook page as well.

 

[USMA21]

Strike first, strike hard, no mercy

I don't like the fact that Won and One are homophones so they aren't really "different."

It's OK now since "Don't ask, don't tell" was repealed.

Authentic Deliberate Disciplined- Class of 2021

To Lead We Must Serve

This is only the third time in USMA history to have a "consecutive" class...

1819
1920
2021

Surely, someone can use that nugget and turn it into something.

Good catch, the consecutive element. Also the blackjack theme. And not all class mottos must rhyme. Good start! Keep them coming.

I love the blackjack theme! Is there anywhere to see what the class moto was for 1819 and 1920? I wonder if there is a spin-off that could be done since they are the only classes with consecutive numbering? Can someone point me to a place to look this up?
