Writer offers cadet's view of West Point life
Clyde Cocke, Avon Lake 1977 graduate, discusses his book Pass in Review at Avon Lake Public Library. The volume focuses on cadets rather than the academy as an institution, detailing class structure, dorm life, integration of women since 1976, and changes like barracks upgrades and digital devices.
