Numbers and West Point | Robert McClure | TEDxWestPoint

Fascinating talk about how the unique numbers experienced by and assigned to each graduate binds the Long Gray Line together.

COL (R) Bob McClure, President and CEO of the West Point Association of Graduates, graduated from the United States Military Academy with the Class of 1976, holds an MPA degree from Harvard and has studied as an Olmsted Scholar in Germany. Over an Army career that spanned 28 years, COL McClure commanded deployed forces at every level in the Corps of Engineers, from Company through Brigade.

In January, 2007 he was named President and CEO of the West Point Association of
Graduates, United States Military Academy. Representing over 49,000 living graduates of
West Point, Bob is responsible for the direction of a 75 person staff that annually raises over $30M for the Long Gray Line and West Point’s Margin of Excellence, the philanthropic element that contributes so much to today’s cadets and tomorrow’s future leaders.
