Growing up in Maud, Ethan Jennings knew he wanted to do his part to serve his country. And, after four years of training and study, he has earned the distinction of graduating from one of the most prestigious military schools in the nation.
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve always felt like I should serve. My dad was in the Army and I’ve had a lot of family who served in the military in various branches … I think it’s a really great way to serve the country … Everyone enjoys all the pleasures and rights we have as an American and I wanted to do something to help protect those in whatever way,” he said.
Jennings is a 2024 graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., where he earned the distinction of second lieutenant in the U.S. Army within the Infantry branch.
