“There are things you learn in the Army that you might not notice right away, but it will help you in the future.” – Alan George. George is a member of the Seneca Nation and a former combat medic who served with the 82nd Airborne Division during Vietnam.”
USMA public release.
This is the most un-woke USMA picture of the Eagle Feather Ceremony. Alan George spoke like a wise old soldier. Truly, cadets will learn things in the Army that they won’t notice but will help them in the future.
Like, “one team, one fight.” Every soldier is part of a unit. Every unit has missions and every soldier has tasks to fulfill those missions. The strength of the unit is what does together.
Kind of like “E Pluribus Unum.” From many one as opposed to from one there are many different. Soldiers don’t celebrate their differences, they celebrate the victories they win together. As one.
The enemy doesn’t recognize and celebrate the diversity, equity, and inclusion of the U.S. Army, unless they could leverage it like the divisions at the end of the Vietnam War. Our enemies only fear an Army that fights with an all-unifying purpose.
If Alan George had given this guidance at a tribal or family ceremony, it would be absolute gold for the cadets. Conducting any ceremony based on “race” at West Point is wrong.
