BANGKOK — 19 June 2025, American military cadets from West Point and the United States Air Force Academy visited Bangkok for an educational seminar hosted by the US Embassy, gaining firsthand exposure to one of Washington’s longest-standing partnerships in Asia.
The cadets from the US Military Academy at West Point and the Air Force Academy met with senior leaders from the Royal Thai Army and the Royal Thai Air Force, toured military museums, and spoke with American and Thai alumni connected to both institutions.
The US Embassy said the visit was aimed at deepening the cadets’ understanding of how the US-Thai alliance contributes to the security and prosperity of both nations’ citizens.
Thailand and the United States have maintained diplomatic and military ties for more than 200 years, making the partnership one of the oldest bilateral relationships the US holds in the region.
