Did you know that the Church Organ at the Church at West Point is the largest Church organ in the world. Yes, even bigger than the Tabernacle organ of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. It’s considered an honor to ask to play it. That organ has 23,511 pipes. The Mormon Tabernacle organ has only 11,623 pipes.

You’ll remember, of course, that the traitor, Benedict Arnold attempted to sell the old Fort at West Point to the British during the Revolutionary War. He was a turncoat to the Redcoats after he had been a hero at Fort Ticonderoga. What a shame.

In 1801 Thomas Jefferson directed that a plan to establish a Military Academy at West Point, New York, be created. The official Academy was begun just a few months later, in 1803. It’s located about 50 miles north of New York City, New York. If you go there, be sure to find the organ.
