West Point ditches ‘Duty, Honor, Country’ from mission statement
The United States Military Academy has removed the words “Duty, Honor, Country” from its mission statement, a move approved by Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth and Army Chief of Staff Randy George.
The previous mission statement read “To educate, train and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the nation as an officer in the United States Army.”
The new one reads “To build, educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets to be commissioned leaders of character committed to the Army Values and ready for a lifetime of professional excellence and service to the Army and Nation.”
Regarding the change, Newsmax.com reports West Point Superintendent Lt. Gen. Steve Gilland said the new statement (which took a year and a half to create) “binds the Academy to the Army.”
“Our responsibility to produce leaders to fight and win our nation’s wars requires us to assess ourselves regularly,” Gilland wrote. “Thus, over the past year and a half, working with leaders from across West Point and external stakeholders, we reviewed our vision, mission, and strategy to serve this purpose.”
Gilland pointed out the academy’s mission statement has changed a total of nine times, with “Duty, Honor, Country” being added in 1998.
Nevertheless, he emphasized that “Duty, Honor, Country is foundational to the United States Military Academy’s culture and will always remain our motto […] it defines who we are as an institution and as graduates of West Point.”

1989 West Point grad Randy De Soto notes in The Western Journal that new cadets had to memorize the portion of General Douglas MacArthur’s 1962 speech (given at the school) which highlighted the three words:
Duty, Honor, Country: Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying points: 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.
News of the mission statement change wasn’t very well received on X:
Build, Educate, Train the new West Point Mission Statement. Doesn’t that just get you fired up and make you want to serve your country?

“…may see as West Point going woke.”
May? Oh there is not doubt about it. Army values could mean absolutely anything.
This is beyond, completely beyond the pale.
What the hell is wrong with Duty, Honor and Country?
Too White?

“West Point Ditches “Duty, Honor, Country,” The Enemy Won Without Firing a Shot”
I accept what is. I also accept what we might have to soon do, in order to stop this corrupt, evil. I’m just not sure how many people agree and how many can pull a TRIGGER!!!!!
Evil thoughts, influences, talks, preaching, brainwashing can all be fought with/through the words of the Bible and Prayer but when the evil enemy is actually coming for you in person, it can be dealt with BRASS and LEAD!!!!!!!! Protect and defend! Enable Self Defense for your loved ones, the innocent, the helpless and your families!!!!!! DO NOT BE AFRAID TO PULL THE TRIGGER on EVIL because they will not hesitate to pull the trigger on you!!!!!

After joking about LEGO in my comment above, I looked-up LEGO’s mission statement and it states:
“to inspire and develop (train) the builders of tomorrow”.
LOL

Every commissioned officer should put their service revolver to their heads. The Pentagon is a terrorist organization that released a biological weapon on the world to scam an election. Sick, deviant reprobates controlling the largest nuclear arsenal on the planet is insane.

IF Trump survives to be elected and if he survives to be inaugurated. This is when he fires everyone in site at West Point, Annapolis, Air Force Academy, Coast Guard Academy Kings point Academy. Separate with a General Discharge the best they get. I fear for Israel and I fear for our country. To many now in this country who have no allegiance to the United States and want it gone. They are working overtime to disarm us. They mean to do this by hook or crook.
