“Grip hands with us now, though we see not; Grip hands with us, strengthen our hearts …” In less than three months, the Class of 2016 will participate in their Affirmation Ceremony, where they will formally commit to the Profession of Arms. The 10th Annual Inspiration to Serve Cemetery Tour gave these cadets the opportunity to consider their own preparation here, their personal journey at West Point, and their future journey leading Soldiers. During the tour, the Cadets heard stories of some remarkable West Point graduates. Their legacy told through the eyes of roommates, classmates, spouses, parents, instructors, coaches, and a daughter who is a Firstie. The stories are emotional, candid, and powerful, and all illustrate Character, Competence, and Commitment. (U.S. Army photos by Sgt. 1st Class Christopher Fincham)
