The West Point "Be thou at Peace" run to honor the 63 West Pointers who have fallen during this war will be conducted starting at 0700 hrs at the Cross Country Park. I will need volunteers to man the sign in tables, assist with the start point, and a couple folks to position on the course to guide the runners/walkers. But most of all, I need every grad available to be there to run/walk one or more miles, each mile in honor of a specific WP grad who has fallen.

At the monthly Society luncheon on Tuesday, we discussed several topics.
The first topic was a change in next months meeting. Due to the scheduled Tactical Missile Conference being on our regular meeting date of the third Tuesday of the Month, we will change the meeting to May 13. It will be held at the Veterans Museum in John Hunt Park. The lunch will be provided by the Society, BBQ!. There will be two speakers that day. The first speaker will be COL Mark Smith. He is the commander of Fox and he will briefly run down what Fox is now doing for both the Active and Retired community. He was also a TAC at West Point at one time, has a son who is a grad, and he will share some of those experiences with us. The second speaker will be from the Museum staff on the latest with City. See the website to note that you are coming so we have a good count for the BBQ.
