==Early life and career==
Westhusing was born in Dallas, Texas and attended high school at Jenks High School in Jenks, Oklahoma where he was a student and starter for the basketball team. He attended West Point, where in his senior year he was selected as honor captain (the highest-ranking ethics official within the cadet corps) and graduated third in his class. He served in the 82nd Airborne Division among other duties, and eventually became a professor at West Point.
In 2003, he wrote a dissertation in philosophy at Emory University in Atlanta, ''"The competitive and cooperative aretai within the American warfighting ethos"''. The dissertation explores "an ideal functional description of the American warrior () makes heavy demands of the warrior's entire being in supporting and defending the United States Constitution to which he has sworn his allegiance."〔The competitive and cooperative aretai within the American warfighting ethos http://sunzi1.lib.hku.hk/ER/detail/hkul/2919566〕 He held degrees and majored in Russian, Philosophy and Military Strategy.
