June 1969 1406 appointees arrived at the Base of the Ramp to begin their USAFA journey eventually leading to being the distinguished "Illustrious Class." June 2019: 1400 appointees will arrive at the BOR to start their journey.
Enough time has evolved over the Academy's history that each entering class has a Legacy Class as part of their journey. While some may try to deny it, the Class of 2023's journey will be 50 years after that of '73. While much has changed in those 50 years both globally and how the Air Force executes its mission, much is unchanged-especially what the Academy demands of those aspiring to be future leaders. The class of '73 will serve as part of the foundation upon which the Class of 2023 will build.
Bill Diffley, Class VP, did so well organizing the reunion, his reward is to be Chair of the Class of '73 Legacy Committee. As such will serve to share information on how our class can be involved, as well as, milestones for the Class of 2023.
