############# West Point Story ##############
################# Feedback ##################
##############################################
I am in search of a copy of a specific episode of the West Point story.
I was born at the academy and lived there for approximately 12 years, during
which time ZIV was producing and filming the West Point series. I am
uncertain of the episode in question, however I do recall it focused around
a cadet who was embarrassed by his elderly parents during their visit to the
school. During that particular shooting I was filmed in the bleachers during
a baseball game. I am unsure if you have access to series tapes or know
where I may acquire one, but I'd like to purchase that episode in a DVD or
VHS format. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer in this matter.
Thanks in Advance,
