The Naval Academy Athletic Association works with local schools to expose youth to the Midshipmen, with the hope of providing a lasting impression.

Joining ships around the world, midshipmen perform a host of ship- board duties including standing deck, gunnery, operations and engineering watches. Midshipmen also have their first opportu- nity to visit foreign countries and experience different cultures. Third classmen begin work in their academic majors and assume more responsibility in the military regimen at the Academy. Less emphasis is placed on indoctrination, leaving more time for studies, sports and extracurricular activities. Its a welcome change from the rigors of plebe year. During their third summer, midshipmen get their first training in four warfare specialties which comprise the naval service. They learn about submarines at New London, Conn.; surface warfare at Norfolk,Va.; naval aviation at Pensacola, Fla.; and the Marine Corps at Quantico,Va. Second class midshipmen are assigned still additional mil- itary responsibilities. They are selected and trained to direct the Brigade of Midshipmen during absences of the first class. They are also assigned an important role in indoctrination of the new plebe class, which develops their leadership skills. In academics, the second class midshipmen enter increasingly advanced areas of study. During their final year at the Academy, first class midshipmen

COMMISSIONINGSix days of parades, athletic events,WEEK colorful ceremonies, formal dances and receptions bring to a climax four years of challenging edu- cation and training. One highlight of Commissioning Week is Color Parade. Each year, intra-brigade competition is conducted to determine which of the 30 companies stands highest overall on the basis of academics, intramural sports, professional drills and parade performance. During the parade, the color girl, who is selected by the Color Company commander, transfer the flags from the past Color Company to the new one. The biggest social event of Commissioning Week is the ring dance for the second class midshipmen. An elegant formal affair, it is at this event that the midshipmen begin wearing their class rings. First class midshipmen and their families attend the superinten- dent’s garden party and reception, plus other social events. Athletic, academic and professional awards are presented in Alumni Hall. The evening before graduation, everyone is invited to attend the farewell ball. On graduation day, friends and relatives gather with the midship- men at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. After the diplomas are presented and the oath of office is administered, the senior mid- shipman of the new first class leads three cheers for "those about to leave us." The graduates, led by the class president, reply with three cheers for "those we leave behind." On the last hooray of this cheer, the 1,000 graduates toss their midshipmen covers into the air. According to tradition, the honor of putting on the new Navy Ensign and Marine Corps Second Lieutenant shoulder devices is shared by mothers and Commissioning Week dates.
