For three years, the Class of 2019 has been working to learn about all the branching options open to them upon graduation from the U.S. Military Academy. Now, it is time to make their final rankings and express their preferences. This week marks the annual Branch Week at West Point where representatives from each of the branches open to cadets after they graduate from USMA set up displays to talk about their branches and answer questions. For Plebes and Yearlings, the week is geared toward educating them on what their options are. Cows, on the other hand, are expected to spend the week talking to branches that interest them and start narrowing down their preferences. The real pressure falls on the Firsties who have until Monday at 11 p.m. to finalize the rankings that will be used to place them into branches. Branch Week marks their final opportunity to ask questions, explore the branches and make sure they know which ones they prefer. “I have pretty much narrowed it down already, but I think for me it is really solidifying my top two or three,” Class of 2019 Cadet Benson Moore said of what he hopes to gain during his final Branch Week. “I am in a position where I don’t think I will drop any lower than that, so just ironing out the difference between A representative from the Aviation branch talks with cadets during Branch Week Tuesday. one and two and making sure it is the right about going Aviation so it is a lot of technical have to submit a list ranking the branches from get number one.
