Alden Partridge, (February 12, 1785 - January 17, 1854) was an American author, legislator, officer, surveyor, an early superintendent of the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York and a controversial pioneer in U.S. military education, emphasizing physical fitness training, advocating the concept of citizen soldier and establishing a series of private military academies throughout the country, including Norwich University. ==Early life== Alden Partridge was born and raised on a family farm in Norwich, Vermont, studious and devout son of soldier Samuel Partridge, Jr., who had fought in the American Revolutionary War at Saratoga. Tall and hardy, the younger Partridge hiked the Green and White Mountains,〔Stier, Maggie and McAdow, Ron, ''Into the Mountains: Stories of New England's Most Celebrated Peaks''〕 worked on his father's farm, and matriculated in local district schools, later at Dartmouth College from 1802 until 1805.
