Yes, America, even venerable West Point, and its equally venerable mission statement, have succumbed to the insidious cancer of “woke.” Moreover, the institution attempts to conceal its surrender, which I’ll make clear in a bit. So, on Monday, West Point announced an “updated” mission statement.
First, here’s the original mission statement (emphasis, mine):
To educate, train and inspire the Corps of Cadets so that each graduate is a commissioned leader of character committed to the values of Duty, Honor, Country and prepared for a career of professional excellence and service to the nation as an officer in the United States Army.
And here’s the “updated” version:
To build, educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets to be commissioned leaders of character committed to the Army Values and ready for a lifetime of professional excellence and service to the Army and Nation.
West Point…
