![]() | I am surprised that you say that the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y. is mysterious. There have been movies made about it and many books are available. The facility itself is open to the public and free tours are given. Only since 9-11 has security been instituted but tours are still given and the museum and gift shop are popular. Before 9-11, ordinary people could drive through the school without any kind of security check. I have visited it may times since childhood as it is on N.Y's beautiful Hudson river only 45 minutes north of N.Y. City. Sight seeing riverboats regularly made a stop at West Point. The scenery is particularly beautiful in the Fall when the leaves change color. It is listed as a tourist attraction and I reccomend it to anyone in the N.Y. City area. Stop by and see the historic grounds which include the cemetery where George Armstrong Custer ( of Little Big Horn Fame) is buried! |
