The West Point Society of the District of Columbia was
founded in the early 1950's with a mere handful of members but with the basic
structure that still exists today. Over the years the dedicated work of
many West Pointers in the Washington area has enabled the Society to become a
strong organization with a comprehensive program and growing membership.
Today, it is the largest of the 120 West Point Societies worldwide.
Our
2008 membership stands around 1,400, although some 4,000 USMA graduates and
former cadets live in the greater Washington Metropolitan area.
The Society hopes to reach more of these potential members to encourage
their participation in its significant activities.
