Sandhurst
British military college
Sandhurst is the Royal Military Academy in Surrey, England, where British Army officers are trained.
The name functions like "West Point" in American usage—a shorthand for elite military education and the officer class it produces: He's a Sandhurst man.
Sandhurst graduates are expected to embody traditional military bearing and leadership.
