Becker, Jack
Becker recounts in detail the selection process he endured for the United States Military Academy at West Point. He quips that the three-day (15-hour) entrance examination was "quite a bit longer than those Geography exams you used to give." The results have not been published, but if he is not selected he plans to go to Officer Candidate School. He is now working in General Harmon's headquarters.
