Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 9, 2025, as West Point Day in New York State

AI Summary

This resolution memorializes Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 9, 2025, as West Point Day in New York State, honoring the United States Military Academy (USMA) established by Congress on March 16, 1802, located on the Hudson River. The resolution highlights the Academy's significant contributions to the state and nation, emphasizing its role in producing exceptional military leaders, referred to as the "Long Grey Line," who have defended democratic values and excelled in various fields. The document celebrates West Point's historical importance, noting its scenic campus that attracts thousands of visitors annually, and recognizes the Academy as a premier institution of higher learning. By requesting the Governor to officially designate a day in honor of West Point, the resolution pays tribute to the Academy's long-standing legacy of preparing military leaders, maintaining peace, and protecting freedom, while also continuing a tradition that dates back to a resolution first introduced over seventy years ago by James T. McNamara, a former New York State Assembly member and West Point alumnus.
