' W PffiADQUARTERS UNITED STATES MILITARY ACADEMY Office of the Commandant of Cadets West Point, New York 10996 31 May 1990 TO THE CLASS OF 1990 Your class graduates from the Military Acadeiny with perhaps the most favorable prospects for global peace than at any other time since World War II. Yet, a world in transition will continue to face uncertainties, and there are regions which will suffer from instability well into the foreseeable future. Two recent streamers to the Army flag, GRENADA and PANAMA, serve as tangible reminders that our Army must always be prepared to assume the roles of warriors and peacemak- ers in the common defense. Consequendy, you and those soldiers soon to be under your command must always be prepared when called upon, no matter what the role. To that end, you are expected to maintain the level of professional standards and knowledge that will ensure our Army is trained and ready. You will soon put into practice your understanding of DUTY, HONOR, COUNTRY, and your personal example of dedicated service may well be the most important legacy you leave for others to emulate. As you now assume a key role in the defense of our nation, you can be justly proud of your accomplishments to date and of your potential for significant contributions as a leader of character. I ' m proud of each of you. Congratulations and best wishes fo r future successes. David A. Bramlett Brigadier General, USA Commandant of Cadets V ' WA SvM FacLiitv 27 5, j..;,
