Hello all! Could you clarify what part the verb "to graduate" is playing in this sentence: "The Alliance wanted Grissom to address the first class of recruits to graduate from the Academy at Arcturus, a symbolic passing of the torch from a legend of the past to the leaders of the future. But a few hours before they were about to depart, the message from Shanxi had radically altered the primary purpose of his trip."?
And do the words "address the first class of recruits" mean the same as "to appeal somebody to do something (in our case, to graduate from the academy)"?
