The West Point Association of Graduates is proud to recognize members of the Long Gray Line who have been selected for promotion to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel (LTC). This significant career milestone reflects more than just time in service—it marks a transition into the senior leadership ranks of the U.S. Army and a deepening commitment to the Army’s core values of Duty, Honor, Country.

Graduates from the Classes of 2002 through 2012 have reached this pivotal moment, a testament to years of dedication, resilience, and exceptional performance. As officers move into the field-grade ranks, their responsibilities broaden from direct tactical leadership to shaping policy, mentoring junior officers, and influencing the future direction of the Army. The promotion to LTC is often seen as a culmination of both operational excellence and strong moral character—qualities deeply rooted in their West Point education and military experience.

These leaders have served through decades marked by global conflict, technological evolution, and dynamic shifts in national defense strategy. Their continued advancement represents not only personal achievement but also the Army’s trust in their potential to lead at higher levels.

We congratulate these graduates and invite the West Point community to join us in celebrating their promotion. Their continued service brings pride to the Academy, and their leadership will shape the future force for years to come.
