On October 8, 1975, the President of the United States signed into law a bill directing that women be admitted to America’s service academies. The first class to include women entered the United States Military Academy in 1976. Since that time, women have continued to join that Long Gray Line as cadets and West Point graduates serving the Nation as leaders in and out of military uniform. It is this great success and accomplishment that we celebrate this conference weekend. Through December31, 2005, 2815 women have graduated from West Point. |
