Presentation of 2LT Bars to the Class of 2006
The Class of 1949 presented each member of the Class of 1999 a set of second lieutenant bars during their Graduation Exercise. This initiated a new tradition that has been followed by subsequent 50th Reunion Classes. We will continue the tradition with the Class of 2006.
Four of our classmates will be selected to participate in the Class of 2006 graduation activities following our reunion. On Friday, 26 May 2006, the classmates and their wives will be guests at the Commandant's Cocktail Party. Later they will be guests of the Class of 2006 at the Graduation Banquet. Saturday morning the men will ride to graduation with the Academic Board and their wives will be bused to Michie Stadium and escorted to the Superintendent's Loge.
The men will be escorted onto the stadium field and seated beside the Firsties. During the ceremony they will greet each new graduate and present him/her a pair of 2LT bars inscribed " 56-06 " on the back. Each box of 2LT bars will contain a card with suitable words of congratulation and best wishes from our class. At the conclusion of the graduation exercises, the classmates will rejoin their wives and attend the Superintendent's post graduation luncheon as guests of the Supe.
