Public displays of affection are not permitted among cadets at the United States Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., although violators may explain offenses in writing.

One errant cadet some years ago wrote: "The actions of my date throughout the evening indicated that she was highly impressed with cadet decorum. Upon saying good-bye, she instituted action for receiving a kiss. Cadet regulations state: 'Courtesy and respect will not be confined to obedience on duty but will extend to all occasions.' I believed it would be a social affront to my date to refuse."

The offense was excused.
