Welcome West Point Parents!

WPP-NET stands for "West Point Parents Net". This is the net used by our parent moderators to pass "hard news" information to all parents who have an e-mail address in the west-point.org system. WPP-NET is a closed net and the only person who can post messages to this net is the wpp-net moderator. This net operates on a "push" system. We push the information out to you unsolicited as we learn of news from West Point.

The WPP-NET website is intended to be the portal for all West Point parents (as your Internet browser home page if you wish), where you can find everything you need in one easy location. If you don't find something you need, be sure to let me know, and our Webmaster will include it if at all possible.

Ross Perot Selected For West Point's Prestigious Thayer Award

By ROBERT MILLER / The Dallas Morning News

Dallas businessman Ross Perot will receive the U.S. Military Academy's prestigious Thayer Award in a ceremony Oct. 15 in West Point, N.Y.

The award is given annually to a non-West Point graduate whose service and accomplishments in the national interest exemplify the academy's motto, "Duty, Honor, Country."

Before my cadet was appointed to USMA

	I was very familiar with the Academy
	I knew more than the average citizen about the Academy
	I had some knowledge of the Academy
	I had very little informaton about the Academy
	I knew nothing of the Academy

Random Quote:

"Duty," "Honor," "Country"—those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you want to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn. Unhappily, I possess neither that eloquence of diction, that poetry of imagination, nor that brilliance of metaphor to tell you all that they mean.
