Robert Heffington’s letter comes after weeks of controversy at the Military Academy. Retired LTC Robert M. Heffington wrote the following letter as an open letter. Heffington was an assistant professor at West Point for several years until August 2017. This letter has been circulating in private among the military for a few days. Heffington confirmed to American Military News on October 4 that he did write the letter; he included a signed copy.

He wrote the letter considering recent media coverage of 2nd Lt. Spenser Rapone, a West Point graduate and infantry officer who came under fire as a cadet for his public advocacy and support of communism and being an “official socialist organizer” of the Democrat Socialists of America (DSA). The broader conversation that has been taking place in the military community now is what exactly went on – and goes on – at West Point that a graduate such as Rapone would feel so strongly empowered to be a communist and spread these doctrines.
