    The United States Military Academy at West Point (also known as USMA, West Point, or Army) is a four-year coeducational federal service academy located at West Point, New York. Established in 1802, USMA is the oldest of the United States’ five service academies. The military garrison at West Point was occupied in 1778 and played a key role in the Revolutionary War. The academy sits on scenic high ground overlooking the Hudson River, 50 miles (80 km) north of New York City. The entire central campus is a national landmark and home to scores of historic sites, buildings, and monuments. The majority of the campus’s neogothic buildings are constructed from gray and black granite. The campus is a popular tourist destination complete with a large visitor center and the oldest museum in the United States Army.
    Candidates for admission must both apply directly to the academy and receive a nomination, usually from a congressman. Students are officers-in-training and are referred to as cadets. Tuition for cadets is fully funded by the Army in exchange for an active duty service obligation upon graduation. Approximately 1,000 cadets graduate each spring and are commissioned as second lieutenants. The academic program grants a bachelor of science degree with a curriculum that grades cadets’ performance upon a broad academic program, military leadership performance, and mandatory participation in competitive athletics. Cadets are required to adhere to the Cadet Honor Code, which states that “a cadet will not lie, cheat, or steal, nor tolerate those who do”.
    Because of the academy’s age and unique mission, its traditions influenced other institutions. It was the first American college to have class rings, and its technical curriculum was a model for later engineering schools. West Point’s student body has a unique rank structure and lexicon. All cadets reside on campus and dine together en masse on weekdays for breakfast and lunch. The academy fields fifteen men’s and nine women’s National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) sports teams while every student competes in at least one sport, either at intramural or intercollegiate level, each semester. The football team was a national power in the early 20th century, winning three national championships. Its alumni are collectively referred to as “The Long Gray Line” and its ranks include two Presidents of the United States, numerous famous generals, and seventy-four Medal of Honor recipients.

      Colonial period, founding, and early years
      West Point was first occupied by the Continental Army on 27 January 1778,[7] making it the longest continually occupied post in the United States.[8] Between 1778 and 80, Polish engineer and military hero Tadeusz Kościuszko oversaw the construction of the garrison defenses.[9] The Great Chain and high ground above the narrow “S” curve in the Hudson River enabled the Continental Army to prevent British ships from sailing up river and dividing the Colonies.[10][11] It was as commander of the fortifications at West Point that Benedict Arnold committed his infamous act of treason when he attempted to sell the fort to the British.[12][13] The main fort at West Point had originally been named after Arnold, but was changed to Fort Clinton after Arnold’s betrayal.[12]
      Congress formally authorized the establishment and funding of the United States Military Academy on 16 March 1802,[2] though “cadets” had been undergoing training in artillery and engineering studies at the garrison since 1794.[14] The first official graduate of the academy was Joseph Gardner Swift, who graduated in October 1802 and would later return as Superintendent from 1812 to 14.[14] The early years of the academy were a tumultuous time, with few standards for admission or length of study. Cadets ranged in age from 10 to 37 and attended between 6 months to 6 years.[14] The impending War of 1812 caused Congress to authorize a more formal system of education at the academy, and increased the size of the Corps of Cadets to 250.[14]

      Thayer monument
      In 1817, Colonel Sylvanus Thayer became the Superintendent and established the curriculum still in use to this day. Thayer instilled strict disciplinary standards, set a standard course of academic study, and emphasized honorable conduct. Known as the “Father of the Military Academy”, he is honored with a monument on campus for the profound impact he left upon the academy’s history.[15][16] Founded to be a school of engineering, for the first half of the 19th century, USMA graduates gained recognition for engineering the bulk of the nation’s initial railway lines, bridges, harbors and roads.[17][18][19] The academy was the only engineering school in the country until the founding of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1824. It was so successful in its engineering curriculum that it significantly influenced every American engineering school founded prior to the Civil War.[18][19][20]
      The Mexican–American War brought the academy to prominence as graduates proved themselves in battle for the first time. Future Civil War commanders Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee first distinguished themselves in battle in Mexico.[21][22] In all, 452 of 523 graduates who served in the war received battlefield promotions or awards for bravery.[21][23] The school experienced a rapid modernization during the 1850s, often romanticized by the graduates who led both sides of the Civil War as the “end of the Old West Point era”.[24] New barracks brought better heat and gas lighting, while new ordnance and tactics training incorporated new rifle and musket technology and advances such as the steam engine.[24][25] With the outbreak of the Civil War, West Point graduates filled the general officer ranks of the rapidly expanding Union and Confederate armies.[26] Two hundred and ninety-four graduates served as general officers for the Union, and one hundred and fifty-one served as general officers for the Confederacy.[24] Of all living graduates at the time of the war, 105 (10%) were killed, and another 151 (15%) were wounded.[24] Nearly every general officer of note from either army during the Civil War was a graduate of West Point and a West Point graduate commanded the forces of one or both sides in every one of the 60 major battles of the war.[24][26][27]

    • Amonitues says:

      Lucky, you get to play the game!

      Step 1
      From reading all the comments, guess what the Fail is all about!

      Step 2
      Word your question well, everyone that laughs at you for asking if you guessed the picture correctly is a minus to your score…

  51. Lin Cirrus says:

    WHEN can I have a free tacos?

  54. 1337 says:

    Photoshopped

  55. Stara says:

    Methinks it could be a way to get people to be upset because they missed it. That way they’d watch the board more. I know it’d work on me. Nothin’ like free tacos.

    And hey Failbloggers! :D Welcome me! You know you want to.

  56. Nqkoi says:

    More like Photoshop fail.

  57. M says:

    This reminds me…
    “When are you going?”
    “Yesterday.”

  58. Bob The Waffle says:

    Crap, I’m late.

  59. J says:

    This is actually a parody of an old advertisement ‘Free Beer Tomorrow’, so if you know the reference, it’s not really fail. You will sometimes still see the metal ‘free beer tomorrow’ sign in bars.

    • Vanessessary says:

      I guess I should have read everyone’s comments before I posted mine below. Observation Fail.
