The times they are a changin

When I think of West Point this is not the vision I see in my mind. Replace those individuals with 16 white guys in some sort of militant pose. They would all be expelled and forced to pay back their tuition.

The funny thing is, anytime I see that pose now, all I can hear in my head is the voice of Clayton Bigsby.

Nothing to see here...

Looking at the picture

Looking at the picture my first thought was about how well Cadets are fed these days.

Has the Academy experienced a political statement of this magnitude before? Certainly, not a good way to begin a career.

I fear that our military is quickly become a "PC think-tank" and is completely jumping the shark on what it's true purpose it.

Now it's got members focusing on making political statements rather than leading and fighting.
