Pro LOGUe We, the 1955 link of the Long Grey Line, proudly present herein the history of our class during its four years at the Military Academy. This history depicts our progressive training which has led to the ultimate goal of devotion to DUTY, HONOR, and COUNTRY while instilling in each of us the ideals of leadership upon which West Point is founded. Our future task is to uphold the prestige of the profession of arms — This we believe.

mmf mi mm mi Was it yesterday I came or really long ago? it was a hot July, and I a boy, I know; A wide-eyed blundering boy on that first day. Seemingly ready for anything; but much to my dismay, I looked at the First Class and they looked at me. And suddenly we both realized, mutually. Who would teach who — And I learned fast, I had to; a plebe must or he doesn ' t last. Civilian as my argyle socks and my bright bow tie, It took three upper classes to change the die; But they did. From old words came meanings new: Duty, loyalty, honor, to mention only a few. And the boy grew rapidly older and more wise. Gradually understanding things he had never analyzed. June succeeded June; gay bands, gold bars, good-byes; Now I, a boy no more, have commission in my eyes. Commission in my eyes, yet remembrance in my heart; Remembrance of the many men from whom I got my start. God knows where on earth they may have been sent. Places far and near, in castle home or tent; But there among splendor or mud today I ' ll wager their thoughts often tend to stray To the years spent here among us as cadets, Some things in life one never forgets.
