Vol. 56, No. 29 WEST POINT, NEW YORK July 30, 1999
The Pointer View is a free, weekly command information newspaper for the West Point and Stewart communities. It publishes a variety of news, features and updates on local happenings of interest to the entire community. A civilian contractor sells the advertising and prints the paper at no cost to the government. The contractor delivers the paper on Fridays to military housing and to various locations at West Point and Stewart, such as the post exchange, commissary and hospital.  Offices receive the paper through distribution. 

Since the newspaper's objective is to inform the community, community members are encouraged to submit editorials, news articles, feature stories, announcements and photographs.   Editorial offices are located in Taylor Hall, Bldg. 600; call 938-3883/2015 for information.
