EDGAR ALLEN POE In 1830, future literary legend Edgar Allan Poe resigned a post in the U.S. Army and enrolled at the United States Military Academy at West Point. The aspiring poet had previously left the University of Virginia after drinking and gambling his way into a mountain of debt, and it appears that his tenure at the Point was equally unsettled. Poe endured the schoolâs strict military discipline and thrived in his studies, but following a falling out with his foster father, John Allan, he resolved to intentionally get himself kicked out. A popular legend states that he won a court martial by showing up to a drill naked save for a cartridge belt, but in actuality, he simply stopped attending classes, roll call and chapel in favor of passing the time at Benny Havensâ, a local watering hole. In total, Poe collected more than 200 offenses and demerits en route to being dismissed from West Point in January 1831. Before leaving, the 22-year-old convinced several of his classmates to donate money to fund the printing costs for his third book of poems. He later dedicated the volume to âthe U.S. Corps of Cadets.â
