It is also called "The Academy", "The Point", and "West Point".[1] Sports media refer to the Academy as "Army" and the students as "cadets"; this usage is officially endorsed.[2] The football team is also known as "The Black Knights of the Hudson".[2][3][4] A small number of graduates each year choose the option of entering the United States Air Force, United States Navy, or United States Marine Corps. Before the founding of the United States Air Force Academy in 1955, the Academy was a major source of officers for the Air Force. Most cadets are admitted through the congressional appointment system.[5][6] The curriculum emphasizes the sciences and engineering fields.[7][8]

The first alumnus to perform actions to be recognized with the Medal of Honor was Charles Henry Tompkins, a non-graduating member of the Class of 1851. The last alumnus to perform actions to be recognized with the Medal of Honor was Andre Lucas (class of 1954). Two graduates, John Gregory Bourke (class of 1869) and Calvin Pearl Titus (class of 1905), received the Medal of Honor before being appointed to the Academy.[9] Other notable Academy alumni who received the Medal of Honor include William Harding Carter, Douglas MacArthur, and Humbert Roque Versace.
