US Army Captains return to be married in the West Point Chapel



Two army captains have made history after exchanging vows at West Point in New York, becoming the first active-duty same-sex couple to get married at the esteemed United States military academy.

Daniel Hall, 30, and Vincent Franchino, 26, declared their love for each other in front of family and friends in the academy's chapel.

They first met at West Point in 2009 when Hall was a senior and Franchino was a freshman.

The military men are both Apache helicopter pilots and are now both stationed together at Fort Bliss in Texas.
