TODAY IN HISTORY
John Glenn becomes first American to orbit Earth
From Cape Canaveral, Florida, John Herschel Glenn Jr. is successfully launched into space aboard the Friendship 7 spacecraft on the first orbital flight by an American astronaut.
Glenn, a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Marine Corps, was among the seven men chosen by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 1959 to become America’s first astronauts. A decorated pilot, he flew nearly 150 combat missions during World War II and the Korean War. In 1957, he made the first nonstop supersonic flight across the United States, flying from Los Angeles to New York in three hours and 23 minutes.

Black History Month
Black History Month is a period in February when the United States commemorates and celebrates the achievements and contributions of Black people throughout American history, highlighting the African American experience and culture through special events and education initiatives; it’s a time to recognize the struggles and triumphs of Black Americans throughout history.
Dizzy Gillespie
Dizzy Gillespie was an American jazz trumpeter, bandleader, composer, educator and singer. He was a trumpet virtuoso and improviser, building on the virtuosic style of Roy Eldridge but adding layers of harmonic and rhythmic complexity previously unheard in jazz. His combination of musicianship, showmanship, and wit made him a leading popularizer of the new music called bebop. His beret and horn-rimmed spectacles, scat singing, bent horn, pouched cheeks, and light-hearted personality have made him an enduring icon.

As the Office of Admission gears up for Spring admissions, we’d like to remind you about our exciting Bring-a-Buddy program. A number of cadets have already taken advantage of this program to recommend their friends to the Academy. If you a refer a friend to Army and Navy Academy, you’ll receive a $1000 credit at the Bookstore when he successfully enrolls. That’s a lot of Takis!
Please contact the Office of Admission up the stairs from the Mess Hall if you have any questions about this program.
