A West Point Visit | 西点军校见闻

点击查看中英对照

My father, brother, and I visited West Point to watch a football game between Army and Boston College. Before kickoff, we took a stroll and encountered many cadets in neatly pressed uniforms. Several visiting fans asked the recruits to pose for photographs, saying, "We want to show our son what to expect if he attends West Point."

One middle-aged couple approached a very attractive female cadet and asked her to pose for a picture. They explained, "We want to show our son what he missed by not coming to West Point."
