If any of you saw the pictures on the USNA Flickr page, many people placed flags along Stribling to honor the victims of 9/11. Honoring those people always makes my heart happy. The majority of current Midshipmen were born after that horrible day. What?? That is hard for me to comprehend. Time never stops moving along...
I couldn't help but notice that one of the Mids was wearing what appeared to be Plebe Summer white works. I was really confused. Prior enlisted? Current enlisted? International student? None of the answers made sense to me.
My son called tonight, and I had to ask him why this person was wearing that uniform. It was driving me nuts.
"He was a Plebe that lost a bet."
Of course...
I ALWAYS forget about the bet factor.
