From the dust jacket:

Clint Lane's third year at West Point proved to be far more exciting and full of surprises than he had ever expected it would be – or could be

It got off to a dizzy start when he took Betty Willard down Flirtation Walk to Kissing Rock – an ordeal that was almost worse than a Navy game. On top of that he found that he was wanted by the F. B. L for a talk about his rifle, which had mysteriously disappeared.

Before that trouble was settled, Clint set forth with his classmates, including the trusty Chugwater Austin and Joe Flynn, on an action- packed "Cow trip," including a sample of Navy life aboard the U. S. S. Tarawa, firepower demonstrations, a night combat patrol, a flight in a jet. It was a terrific summer.

Back at West Point, with the football season under way and a tough schedule of studies, Clint's life is just about getting back to normal, when he takes a flight with a general officer after the Illinois game. This almost puts Clinton the sideline for keeps.

But there are some unexpected developments and some real victories in store for Clint-and for the reader of WEST POINT SECOND CLASSMAN.

This new West Point book by Colonel Red Reeder is the best yet.
