Mark your calendars and join your classmates. Our next big gathering is the 60th reunion — a celebration spanning two iconic locations, with a pre-game gathering in historic Portsmouth, NH, followed by events and activities on the PEA campus. Visit the 60th Reunion page for the full schedule, who's coming, and reunion leadership.
Classmates and class news in the headlines. This growing collection gathers news stories, press mentions, and accomplishments featuring our classmates — from published books and profiles to reunion coverage and class achievements. Know of a classmate making news? Send it along and we'll add it to the collection.
This section is divided into two parts. The first part honors our departed classmates. The second part celebrates some of the powerful memories that have helped bind us together over the years. Please share your tributes to our fallen classmates here, as well as your favorite stories from your days as an Academy student. We hope you will contribute to our collective memory book.
Explore our rich class archives, which feature the unforgettable Class Poem read aloud to us by Class Poet Kirby Lamotte during our Commencement, the Spring '66 publication, our graduation program, President Dwight D. Eisenhower's commencement address, handwritten notes, and many other treasures from our time together at the Academy. By posting these Class of '66 documents here, we preserve our collective memories and our shared legacy for years to come.
Questions, updates, or a memory to share? Get in touch with the class. Whether you'd like to contribute a document to the archives, add your reflections to our memory book, or simply say hello, we'd love to hear from you.
