Thank you. My husband (then fiancé) was one of the graduates that day. It was a powerful moment to have the President give such a speech. It was five months after the hostages had returned to West Point from Iran. 42 years ago today. We got engaged the night before and married a few months later.

Thanks for sharing. I enlisted under that great man and shipped out to the Navy less than two weeks after he left office.
