Class of 2021 Alumni Wreath Laying Ceremony

The U.S. Military Academy honored members of the Long Gray Line during a wreath laying ceremony today at the base of the Col. Sylvanus Thayer statue. The ceremony was held with Superintendent, LTG Darryl A. Williams, CSM Michael Coffey, West Point Association of Graduates President Todd Browne, and First Captain Reilly McGinnis, who filled in for the oldest graduate and placed the wreath. The event traditionally honors the Long Gray Line and classes in attendance during Graduation Week, while the oldest returning graduate performs the wreath laying. However, this year due to COVID-19 restrictions, members of the Long Gray Line and classes could not attend. Photos.
