3 days until graduation and you better believe "The Class of 2009″ are ready and pumped! "And the First Class is soo short!" And all cadet's respond. " How short are they?" And the crowd in the cadet mess goes crazy! 3days!!!!!!

After four years of intense work, you will see and get to enjoy GRADUATION WEEK, with all of its parades, dances ball and
celebrations. During Graduation week, First Class cadets have a feeling of regret at leaving friends and West Point and still
they are floating on cloud nine as they look towards a new life and career as Army Officers.

For four years the graduating class has been waiting for this special day. It always seemed so far away and finally, the day has arrived.

Graduation Week passes very quickly. The morning of graduation, family and friends gather at Michie Stadium early.
A long and emotional day. But ends with great reward and honor. Go 2009~
