News of Alumni: Nicholas P. Charles ’81 and Carrington Carter ‘84
Two Eagles—Dr. Nicholas P. Charles DM, Class of 1981 and Mr. Carrington Carter Class of 1984—reunited this year at the Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
The United States Army War College (USAWC) is a U.S. Army educational institution on the 500-acre campus of the historic Carlisle Barracks. It provides graduate-level instruction to senior military officers and civilians to prepare them for senior leadership assignments and responsibilities. Each year, a number of Army colonels and lieutenant colonels are considered by a board for admission. Approximately 800 students attend at any one time, half in a two-year-long distance learning program, and the other half in an on-campus, full-time resident program lasting ten months. Upon completion, the college grants its graduates a master's degree in Strategic Studies.
“Nick and I had not seen each other since he graduated from Gonzaga in 1981,” says Carrington. “Ironically, he was my big brother when I entered my freshman year at Gonzaga in 1980. Now, he is assuming the big brother role again at the U.S. Army War College. It is pretty awesome!”
