A little about the story

Dick Prescott is in his final year at the US Military Academy, ready to trade cadet grey for an officer's shoulder straps. But an old enemy, Cadet Jordan, is set on revenge, and the class politics of West Point are as tricky as any exam.

There are pontoon bridges to build across the Hudson, honour to defend and friendships to keep. H. Irving Hancock knew West Point well, and he brings its traditions and strict codes vividly to life.
