If General Westmoreland offered him admission to West Point -- the top ROTC cadet in Detroit, black and perfect grades and board scores -- guess what... he's in. Westmoreland could not have offered him admission. Only the service academy can do that. Westmoreland could not even nominate him, unless he was a member of congress or senate, or a handful of similarly qualified nominating officials. He certainly could have explained it better, but there is little doubt he was offered admission. Again, only the USMA can offer him admission...
