It's feeble to accept society at the precise moment for the making of army officers (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

west point

'the making of army officers' is the definition.
(name for the United States Military Academy)

'it's feeble to accept society at the precise moment' is the wordplay.
'it's feeble' becomes 'wet'.
'to accept' indicates putting letters inside.
'society' becomes 's' (common abbreviation in names of organisations).
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'the precise moment' becomes 'point' (a point in time).
'wet' placed around 's' is 'west'.
'west'+'point'='WEST POINT'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for west point that I've seen before include "US military academy" , "Famous American military academy" .)
