21st ASAB December 26, 2010 Seattle Sheraton Hotel
Click here for the ASAB Fundraiser The West Point Parents Club of Washington and the
4201 South Steele Street join forces on September 11, 2010 to raise funds for the 21st Annual Washington State All Services Academy Ball Over twenty years ago, a group of service academy parents came together to plan and host Washington’s first All Services Academy Ball. By doing so, they joined several other states across the country already sponsoring this annual event. We continue to honor the stellar young men and women from the Evergreen State who commit themselves to the highest standards of academic, athletic, and military achievement by attending one of our country’s five service academies. Upon graduation, each of these students has committed to a minimum of five years of military service to our nation. On a day that holds great meaning for our military, The Adriatic Grill has chosen to partner with us in helping to honor our Cadets and Midshipmen. They will donate 20% of every bill from customers who mention the Academy Ball from 11:00am to 12:00 am on Saturday, September 11, 2010. You may make reservations on line and mention the Academy Ball in the comments section, or walk in and mention the Academy Ball and the West Point Parents Club of Washington will get 20% of your bill donated to help fund the All Services Academy Ball. Visit the Adriatic Grill, mention the Academy Ball and help us show the members of our Service Academies how much we appreciate their dedication to serving our country!

Casey ‘45. It was a self-written obituary he had prepared with instructions that it be forwarded to his wife in the event of his death. He said that he wrote it for several reasons, none of which he hoped would be considered trite: to spare his friends the usual clichés about being a good soldier; to avoid erpetuating harmful and inaccurate images of war, such as glory; and because he was “quite simply the last authority on my own death.” John Alexander Hottell, III, Class of 1964, lettered in swimming, played football and rugby, graduated near the top of his class and was selected as a Rhodes Scholar. While at Oxford he won the British National Diving Championship two years in a row but lost to Cambridge in boxing. Afterwards, he commanded an airborne Infantry company in Germany and an Infantry company in the 1st Cavalry Division in Viet Nam before being selected as aide de camp to MG Casey.
