When the Central Area cadet barracks were demolished in the 1960's to make room for the new, larger Eisenhower Barracks, a section of the old barracks was saved and now stands in the center of the area as a monument to past generations of cadets.  Renamed Nininger Hall, the old 1st Division (originally built in 1851) now contains the Honor Committee's hearing room, offices of the Center for Professional Military Ethic, and three cadet rooms preserved in the style and furnishings of three distinct eras in the history of West Point.

One room represents the period from the 1950s through the late 1960s. Funds for its establishment, and the articles in it, were donated by members of  the Class of 1960.  Efforts have been made to arrange the room as closely as possible the way a room was supposed to look when we and our classmates were in class.

The room is dedicated to three of our classmates killed in action while serving in Vietnam.  The names of these individuals, Dick Boyd, Lyell King and Chuck Titus, are displayed in the name tag slots throughout the room.  Click on the pictures below to read the memorial articles published by the AOG.
