Vice - President Mike Pence at the West Point's Graduation Ceremony

"Those milestones include: Today, you’re graduating the 1000th Jewish cadet  -- the 5000th female cadet, including the highest number of Hispanic women graduates.   And since the last time I was here, I had the privilege of speaking at the Henry Flipper dinner, honoring the first African American to ever graduate from West Point.  I couldn’t be more proud to stand before the graduating class of 2019 that includes the highest number of African American women cadets in the history of the United States Military Academy!
