Day in the Life of a West Point Cadet

This is my final project for my English class , EN101, where I film myself throughout the day, showing what my average day looks like.

This is a perfect reference of what a normal day at the Academy looks like! Good stuff, Mr. Preston.

Enjoyed the video Matthew! With guys like you as our future soldiers, we are in great hands!

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. I was an enlisted guy, grunt, 11B type. Very cool to see what west pointers experience. My 2nd CO was a West Pointer, great officer.

Outstanding video, proud of you. Hang in there and thank you for your decision to serve.

Your video is one of the best out of USMA I've seen; keep them coming!
And Kudos to your behind-the-scenes cameraperson.
It's full extension on those tricep exercises, and varying the bench angle on those chest presses in order to hit different chest areas, hence definition.
On the chemistry question, in-company help is great, but don't sell your instructor(s) short; they should've given you their contact info/modes, and (also) raising a question with them will help guide their class/instruction (better) to you/your section.
Hope I see you at Chapel.

... from flying around aircraft carriers, "Looks good; keep it coming."

P.S. Some of us are sincerely hoping the USNA Athletic Association will finally grow a brain, then do whatever it takes to have Urban Meyer coach Navy Football, so we all can have an annual get-together devoid of coached/taught cheapshots and unethical play/players (see the video from Army Navy 2021 for example). It's terrible some of us don't have a classmate that would've told Ken Nehemiah not to have the door hit him in the ass after firing him instead of caving to his demand for another raise under his threat of leaving Navy for BYU in order to coach his new freshman son there. But, that's Navy; not Army.

One of the best day in the life videos of West Point cadets.

Wow this was really interesting to watch. My dad and my aunt are west point graduates and i am always told stories of their time there and seeing it really puts it into perspective for me.

Hey Preston, I loved this video. I would also love if you did more videos on what studying is like, or something along those lines.

[noahf]

that is a serious deadlift! thank you for your service!

[jbascom]

Great video Matthew! Looks like an awesome experience!

[Orbility]

Best of luck, Cadet. One of my PL's was a West Pointer and he was a great leader and an all-around outstanding guy. Whenever you commission, I hope you take the time to get to know those you lead. If you see them as people and respect them, they in turn will respect and follow you.

Looking forward to meeting you when I get up there myself. I just got accepted, class of 2028. Go Army!

[VJROMULUS]

Was always curious what it was like there went to visit when I was a Boy Scout. Thank you for your service and all my best.

Your video has inspired me to some point try to help out with a couple of things to make it a better experience for you guys. Hopefully I’ll be able to do that in a couple of years.
