| Summary/Abstract |
The authors investigate a gap in attitudes toward homosexuals in the U.S. military among a select group of people-American civilian undergraduates, Reserve Officer Training Corp (ROTC) cadets, and cadets at military academies. Using a subsample (N = 3057) of data from the Biannual Attitude Survey of Students (BASS), being a military academy cadet is associated with the strongest agreement for barring homosexuals from serving in the military, followed by ROTC cadets and civilians. These trends continue when controlling for respondents' sex and political affiliation-the two most significant predictors of agreeing to bar homosexuals from military service. A small reduction in agreement for barring was found among academy cadets over time.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article offers the reflections of a civilian instructor in ethics after 20 years of teaching at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis. It describes his efforts to provide the midshipmen in his classes a realistic, practical, yet very demanding preview of the ethical challenges they will face once they are officers deployed to the fleet.

| Summary/Abstract |
The United States Military Academy educated the most successful and iconic Confederate generals. How did West Point reconcile the memory of Confederate graduates who, while famed for their martial prowess, fought against the U.S. Army? In the Gilded Age, West Point neither forgot nor forgave Confederate graduates for fighting against the U.S. Army. The memory of wartime chaos, Congressional criticism, and Confederate graduates' betrayal left the Military Academy feeling defensive. This defensiveness led West Point to create a series of written and stone memorials, mainly in the 1890s, highlighting West Point's role in saving the Union. All of the memorials excluded Confederate graduates.
