ANNAPOLIS, Md. (May 13, 2026) U.S. Naval Academy plebes (freshmen) from the Sea Trials “Iron Company” lead the plebes as they rush the Herndon monument, a tradition symbolizing the successful completion of the midshipmen’s plebe year. As the undergraduate college of our country’s naval service, the Naval Academy prepares young men and women to become professional officers of competence, character, and compassion in the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps.
