Nicholas
Captain, U.S. Army. West Point, class of 2022. Cavalry officer.
I grew up in Manchester, New Hampshire, with my identical twin, Elias, and our younger brother, Alec. I studied political science at West Point, with a minor in European regional studies, and I graduated in 2022. I serve as a captain and a cavalry officer.
Elias calls me type-A, list-oriented, and logical, and he has said he looks up to me. We grew up playing the same sports. I love the arts, and in high school I took a summer program in political studies.
Service
Promoted to captain in 2025. The West Point Association of Graduates lists Nicholas H. Kacavas ’22. The list does not give the day.
