In the second round of the three-round bout, Garcia was stunned by a body shot that sent the defending champ into the ropes. With a full house chanting “Army, Army, Army…,” Garcia regained his composure and fought back to finish the round strongly. As the decision was announced, Garcia threw his arms up with excitement and immediately looked into the crowd for his Family.

  • Reflections of West Point's 58Th Superintendent Transcript
    Interviewer We’re here with General David Huntoon in the Superintendent’s Office at West Point. It’s June 26, 2013. Good afternoon, General. LTG D. Huntoon Good afternoon—nice to see you. Interviewer Good to see you. When you were first a cadet here, did you ever imagine that you would one day return to run West Point? LTG D. Huntoon Absolutely not. I had a much shorter planning horizon in those days. I think I was able to see as far as the Saturday ahead of me, and so no. I did think about serving in the military. I came from an Army family, and so it was second nature for me to want to come to the United States Military Academy. But no, I did not anticipate returning—certainly not in this august position. A great privilege to be here. Interviewer Can you give us an outline of your career, just so we have the background against which to look at your service here? LTG D. Huntoon Sure. Graduated in 1973, of course, Second Lieutenant of Infantry. [0:01:01] And then I had a series of assignments in Infantry units as a Platoon Leader Company Commander, Staff Officer, that took me from the Third Infantry in Washington, D.C., to Fort Lewis, Washington, by way of the Infantry Advanced Course. Commanded my Company with the Ninth Infantry Division out there in the State of Washington, and then I went to Germany, where I was involved with the fielding of the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, which had just come into the Army’s inventory.
