A Report by Trevor Philpott.
Written and directed by Trevor Philpott.
Becoming an Officer in the American armed forces is a tough business: at the three service Academies - West Point, Annapolis, and Colorado Springs - they make it tougher than anywhere else. One in three of the cadets who enter is not there by graduation day.
This film follows the four-year training of the future Admirals and Generals of the United States.
