ALBANY – Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C,I-Batavia), an Army veteran and member of the Assembly Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, joined other members of the State Assembly on Thursday for a ceremony to honor cadets from the United States Military Academy at West Point.
An annual tradition within the Assembly, this was the first West Point Day to take place in two years following the Covid-19 pandemic.
“The cadets of West Point embody the bright future of our nation, and every year we’re able to hold this ceremony I’m honored to have the opportunity to commend them for their dedication to our country and wish them well as future leaders within our military, our government and our communities,” said Hawley. “I was very happy to see West Point Day return to the chamber this year, and hope it will take place without further interruption in the future.”
