What the difference between West Point and Prison?

The cadets at WP love to joke about "what's the difference between WP and prison"?  One of the favorites "In prison they get to watch tv"...  You get the gist!!
Anyway, with the recent blizzard, here's a couple of pics to remind us of another favorite ("In prison they don't have to march when it's 14 degrees and snowing outside")!  Some parents will tell you that at West Point, complaining is a varsity sport that almost all cadets "letter" in!!  As a Mom watching her son in the cold and heat, I can see why!!





BBBBRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!  Hang in there cadets!!

How much snow did they end up with? NYC got buried, so they must have quite a lot there at WP as well. Will say a prayer for warmth and endurance and a bright spot in his days!
