    The tradition continues as cadets, staff and faculty gathered at the Cadet Mess Hall to celebrate Founders Day March 16 at the U.S. Military Academy. During the event, Class of 2023 Cadet First Captain Lauren Drysdale unveiled the new black, with gold trim, West Point robe, which received an ovation from cadets eager to try it on. Afterward, guest speaker, Erica Jeffries Purdo, vice president of Strategy and Operations, Global Corporate Affairs at Johnson & Johnson, and USMA 1998 graduate, shared her experience as a cadet at West Point, her time in service in the Army, and imparted words of wisdom meant to underscore the impactful legacy of the Long Gray Line.
