Welcome Aboard!

Annapolis is home to the United States Naval Academy and Naval Support Activity Annapolis. The Naval Academy and Naval Support Activity Annapolis share many facilities and personnel. Maps of both areas are included in this publication.

The location is outstanding. The Chesapeake Bay, the Severn and Magothy Rivers surround Annapolis.

Baltimore and Washington, D.C., are only 30 miles away. The quiet countryside of Maryland’s Eastern Shore across the Bay Bridge provides newcomers much to explore and enjoy.

The average monthly temperatures in the area range from the 30’s in January and February to the high 90’s in July and August. The summer days fade into crisp autumn weather, and sailing and outdoor activities continue into November.

United States Naval Academy

Even with an expanding population, Annapolis still retains a small-town atmosphere. Shopkeepers know their customers by name, and people stroll leisurely down Main Street. Spring and summer bring tourists and families to the Academy. In autumn, Navy football games provide ample opportunities for enjoying the city and its surroundings.

As Maryland’s capital for more than 300 years, Annapolis welcomes legislators from all over the state each year from January through April. The State House, one of the oldest existing houses of government in the country, still serves the Maryland legislature and, at one point, served as the United States Capitol.

We hope this guide will provide helpful information as you get settled and make the most of your stay in Annapolis.

Tour Around the Yard As you stroll the scenic grounds of the Naval Academy, known as the Yard, the contrasts in architecture reflect its distinguished history. Designated a National Historic Site, the Yard offers tree-shaded monuments to commemorate courageous graduates and non-graduates, and their contributions to naval history.

Throughout years of growth and change, the basic mission of the Academy has remained: “To develop midshipmen morally, mentally and physically and to imbue them with the highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty in order to graduate leaders who are dedicated to a career of naval service and have potential for future development in mind and character to assume the highest responsibilities of command, citizenship and government.”

Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft established the first Naval School at Fort Severn in Annapolis in 1845, and about 50 students attended classes taught by four officers and three civilian professors. In 1850, the Naval School became the United States Naval Academy, the undergraduate college of the U.S. Navy.

The current curriculum of four consecutive years at Annapolis with at-sea training during the summers was adopted in 1850. During the Civil War, the Academy moved to Newport, R.I. It was reestablished at Annapolis in 1865.

By World War I, there were nearly 200 graduates each year, and in 1933, an act of Congress authorized the Academy to confer the bachelor of science degree. As the Navy grew over the years, the Academy expanded from ten acres to a 338-acre complex, from 50 midshipmen to a student body of more than 4,400 midshipmen.

www.usna.edu

Bancroft Hall, named after Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft, who founded the school in 1845, is home for the entire brigade of more than 4,400 midshipmen. It contains approximately 1,700 midshipman rooms, nearly five miles of corridors, and about 33 acres of floor space. All of the basic facilities midshipmen need for daily living and many facilities for recreation are found in the hall.

Although the living areas of Bancroft Hall are off-limits to visitors, several other areas are open. These include the Rotunda and Memorial Hall, dedicated to alumni who gave their lives in defense of their country. There is also a sample midshipman room near the Main Office, to the right of the Rotunda.

Naval Academy Chapel Construction of the Naval Academy Chapel started in 1904 and it was dedicated in 1908. The interdenominational chapel provides a serene place for the Brigade of Midshipmen to worship.

An addition, dedicated in 1940, increased the seating capacity to 2,500 and changed the basic design from a Greek to a Roman cross. Two massive bronze doors designed by Evelyn B. Longman grace the entrance to the chapel. The two anchors that flank the long chapel steps were reportedly made for one of the Navy’s first armored cruisers, USS New York.

Inside, the stained glass windows are majestic. The window above the altar, Christ Walking Upon the Water, was designed by Tiffany Studios. The Sir Galahad window symbolizes the ideals of the Navy.

The words of the Navy hymn, Eternal Father Strong to Save, dominate the altar. As part of a long-standing tradition, the congregation sings the Navy hymn at the conclusion of every service. A single pew, cordoned off in blue velvet with a single burning candle, is reserved in honor of all prisoners of war and those missing in action. Below the nave of the main chapel, two smaller chapels, St. Andrew’s Chapel and the Blessed Sacrament Chapel, are available for daily services.

At the end of Commissioning Week, weddings are celebrated hourly for newly commissioned ensigns and second lieutenants.

Approximately 160 weddings are held every year in the Naval Academy’s chapels.

John Paul Jones, a naval hero from the Revolutionary War, is entombed beneath the chapel. His remains were brought to America in 1905 after 113 years of obscurity in a Paris cemetery.

General Horace Porter, U.S. Ambassador to France, was responsible for locating the remains.

History is Everywhere Great moments and heroes in American Navy and Marine Corps history are represented throughout the Yard in statues, paintings, ships, plaques and buildings.

Larson Hall, named for former Naval Academy Superintendent, Admiral Charles R. Larson (Class of 1958) houses the the Office of the Superintendent and the Academy's administrative offices.

Ricketts Hall houses the Naval Academy Athletic Association, as well as ticket offices for Navy athletic events.

Originally the headquarters for Naval Station, Annapolis, and quarters for Sailors and mess stewards, Ricketts Hall was named for Admiral Claude V. Ricketts who rose from enlisted ranks to admiral in the U.S. Navy.

On the seaward end of Halsey Field House is the Armel-Leftwich Visitor Center. This facility houses exhibits, a guide service, a 4,500-square-foot gift shop, a galley with vending machines and a 100-seat theater where visitors can view a 13-minute film on the life of a midshipman. Armel-Leftwich Visitor Center is named for Captain Lyle O. Armel and Lieutenant Colonel William G. Leftwich, both Class of 1953, who served in the Vietnam War and where Leftwich was killed in action.

The southeast end of the Halsey Field House houses the new Admissions offices while the rest of the 80,000-square-foot building is used for sports and physical training. Squash and tennis courts, weight rooms, basketball courts, climbing wall and an astroturf field are under one roof. Halsey Field House is named for Fleet Admiral William F. Halsey (Class of 1904) a major figure of the South Pacific naval and joint amphibious campaigns in World War II.

The Native American w a r r i o r, c a l l e d Tecumseh, is located in front of Bancroft Hall in Tecumseh Court.

T-Court, where noon time formations of the Brigade of Midshipmen have been held since 1905, takes its name from the nickname given to the native American figurehead of USS Delaware who overlooks the area. Tecumseh is bedecked in full war paint before all home football games and the traditional game against Army. The original figurehead was carved in wood; it is now housed indoors in the Visitor Center. It was replaced outside by the bronze replica in 1930. It was originally carved to represent Tamanend, a Chief of the Delaware Indians, but in the 1890s the midshipmen began calling him Tecumseh, after the famous Shawnee warrior and that nickname has stuck ever since. It is also honored with coins tossed at it by students on the way to examinations for good luck.

It is affectionately known as the God of 2.0 or C, a passing grade.

Bancroft Hall, the dormitory, is named for George Bancroft, who as Secretary of the Navy, founded the U.S. Naval Academy in 1845.

The Lejeune Physical Education Center houses an Olympic-size pool, practice wrestling ring and weight rooms. The Academy’s reputation for outstanding teams and athletes since the early 1900s is exhibited in the Athletic Hall of Fame on the second floor. Lejeune Hall is named for Major General John A. Lejeune (Class of 1888) Army division commander in World War I and Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps, throughout the 1920s.

The sarcophagus of Commodore John Paul Jones (1747-92) was sculpted by Sylvain Salieres (1865-c.1918) who had come to America by 1903 to work for the architectural firm of Warren and Wetmore on New York’s Grand Central Station. The black and white marble of the casket is supported by bronze dolphins and decorated on top by bronze seaweed.

Surrounding it and imbedded in the floor in gold are the names of the ships that Jones commanded during the American Revolution. At the head of the sarcophagus are his name, dates, and an inscription reading: “he gave our Navy its earliest traditions of heroism and victory.”

U.S. Naval Academy The Mission

Founded as the Naval School in 1845, the United States Naval Academy today is a fouryear service academy whose mission is : “To develop midshipmen morally, mentally and physically and to imbue them with the highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty in order to graduate leaders who are dedicated to a career of naval service and have potential for future development in mind and character to assume the highest responsibilities of command, citizenship and government.”

Location

The academy is set on 338 acres between the south bank of the Severn River and historic downtown Annapolis, the state capital of Maryland. Annapolis is 33 miles east of Washington, D.C., and 30 miles southeast of Baltimore.

Campus

The Yard, as the campus is called, features tree-lined brick walks, French Renaissance and contemporary architecture and scenic vistas of the Chesapeake Bay. The Bancroft Hall dormitory complex, the Naval Academy Chapel, and other century-old buildings make the academy a National Historic Site. Newer facilities, such as the Uriah P. Levy Center and Jewish Chapel, a multi-purpose Alumni Hall, Rickover Hall engineering complex, the Hendrix Oceanography Laboratory, the Wesley Brown Field House and Hopper Hall give the academy state-of-the-art educational resources.

Students

More than 4,400 men and women represent every state in the U.S. and several foreign countries.

Faculty

The 540-member Naval Academy faculty is an integrated group of military and civilian instructors in approximately equal numbers. The student-faculty ratio is 8:1, with most class sizes ranging from 10 to 22 students.

Academics

In addition to a core curriculum of academic and professional courses, majors are offered in nearly 30 subject areas: nine in engineering; 15 in science, mathematics and computer science; and five in the humanities and social sciences.

Professional

Midshipmen study subjects such as cyber security, seamanship and navigation tactics, naval engineering, naval weapons, leadership, ethics and military law, small arms and drill during the four-year program. In addition, during part of the summers, midshipmen train at naval bases and on ships in the fleet.

Athletics

Midshipmen can choose from a total of 33 intercollegiate varsity sports: 18 for men, 11 for women and 4 co-ed. Students can also choose from 16 intramural and 15 club sports.

Extracurricular Exciting extracurricular activities are offered in areas ranging from engineering societies to military professional clubs and associations.

Graduation

www.usna.edu

Bachelor of science degrees specifying a major field are awarded to midshipmen upon graduation. They receive commissions as ensigns in the U.S. Navy or second lieutenants in the U.S. Marine Corps and serve as officers for at least five years of service.

Midshipman Life: Plebe Summer

12

United States Naval Academy

www.usna.edu

Induction Day: nearly 1,400 young men and women stand shoulder-to-shoulder, as they take the Oath of Office and become plebes (or freshmen) at the Naval Academy. The experience they will share over the next four years will challenge them morally, mentally and physically.

Plebe Summer is a demanding, fast-paced orientation that begins the four years of preparation for commissioning Navy or Marine Corps officers. Physical and mental demands upon the plebes’ time seem never ending, but they all have a purpose: the development of leadership ability, motivation, moral strength, physical skills and stamina—attributes of any outstanding naval officer.

Bridging the gap between a plebe’s civilian life or previous military service and life as a midshipman, Plebe Summer consists of seven weeks of intensive training.

As the summer progresses, the new midshipmen rapidly www.usna.edu

assimilate basic skills and confidence in seamanship, military customs and tradition, and damage control.

Infantry drill, shooting pistols and rifles, and sailing all contribute to providing each plebe the fundamentals of midshipmen life. A rigorous physical conditioning program is also part of the daily regimen. Teamwork and a desire to excel are developed through competition in activities ranging from athletics to dress parades and small unit activities.

However difficult, Plebe Summer is a time midshipmen will never forget. They experience both success and failure. Successes are rewarded with commendations, and failures result in constructive criticism and guidance.

Making each hurdle brings a feeling of relief that it is over and a sense of pride that the challenge has been met and conquered.

Midshipman Life: Moral, Mental & Physical

The rigorous routine and challenges of a year-long leadership development system are unique to the service academies.

Complementing other phases of midshipmen training and education, the plebe year at the Naval Academy is designed to test and develop. It is a challenging year requiring midshipmen to stand on their own feet, to produce under pressure, to respond promptly and intelligently to orders, and finally, to measure up to the highest standards of honor, courage and commitment.

Only by experiencing the exhausting rigors of Plebe Summer, by facing the responsibility of leading other midshipmen and by throwing a hat into the air at graduation can one experience what the Naval Academy is all about. The Naval Academy's program is tightly structured: a four-year program is required of all midshipmen.

At the Academy, all students are called midshipmen, which is a rank between chief warrant officer and ensign in the Navy.

A midshipman first class is a senior, a second class is a junior, a third class is a sophomore and a fourth class, or plebe, is a freshman. The student body is the Brigade of Midshipmen and is divided into six battalions. Five companies make up each battalion. The midshipman command structure is headed by midshipmen first class, chosen for outstanding leadership and professional performance. Overseeing all brigade activities is the Commandant of Midshipmen, an active-duty senior officer. Working for the commandant, experienced Navy and Marine Corps officers and senior enlisted are assigned oversight and mentoring roles in the midshipmen companies and battalions.

As a midshipman progresses through the Academy, leadership responsibility grows. With each succeeding year, midshipmen assume more important roles in running their company, battalion and the brigade.

First class midshipmen make daily decisions affecting the morale and performance of other midshipmen, teaching them fundamentals of the naval profession and helping them through difficulties. “Firsties” lead through personal example, communication, rewards and discipline and other techniques they have learned in the classroom and through three years’ experience.

Under the guidance of seasoned Navy and Marine Corps officers and senior enlisted, a midshipman builds leadership skills. By the time a midshipman graduates and becomes a naval officer, he or she has practiced leadership in a variety of situations and has learned the fundamentals of officership needed for the Navy and Marine Corps.

United States Naval Academy

www.usna.edu

Notable Accomplishments of U. S. Naval Academy Graduates Navy and Marine Corps officers have to make morally correct decisions under the pressure of combat. Developing moral courage as a basis for these decisions develops leaders who will stand for what they believe and do the right thing for the right reason.

As future Navy and Marine Corps combat leaders, midshipmen are encouraged to set high personal standards of integrity and character, to respect both subordinates and superiors, and to measure their own actions with how well they mirror officers and leaders whom they respect.

Character development and ethics are incorporated throughout every aspect of the academy's four-year program. Character building situations occur daily throughout the Yard, in classrooms, in Bancroft Hall, on watch or on liberty as well as on the athletic field.

Midshipmen are reminded that their integrity and honor can never be taken from them. They alone must choose to stand tall and do the right thing in the face of pressure and maintain their honor.

Through the study of ethics, midshipmen are given tools for moral decision making.

Midshipman Life: Mental Development Preparing our graduates to succeed as officers and leaders through a rigorous education is an essential part of the Academy's mission. The mental development of midshipmen takes place through a demanding academic and professional curriculum so that they can excel as officers in the Fleet and the Marine Corps.

Midshipmen complete a challenging core curriculum across their four-years at the Academy. The core requires professional coursework including navigation, ethics, leadership and naval law in addition to engineering, science, mathematics, humanities and social sciences. The goal is a broad-based education that qualifies graduates for any warfare specialty in the Navy or Marine Corps; a technical foundation that enables them to lead in the modern navy; and majors programs that foster critical thinking within a focused academic discipline.

The workload is demanding and designed to shape leaders who can motivate teams in challenging circumstances; critical thinkers who can process information quickly; and officers who can apply fundamental principles from science, engineering, and mathematics to an increasingly complex, technical operating environment.

Midshipmen learn the basics of the naval service through four years of classroom instruction combined with the practical experiences of handling 108-foot diesel powered training craft; Fleet cruises in junior officer roles; and professional programs such as the Powered Flight giving aspiring aviators the chance to solo, and “Leatherneck” training with the Marines.

While at the Academy midshipmen receive a strong technical foundation. Successful officers need to understand how complex systems work to win on the 21st century battlefield and midshipmen learn how complex systems are interconnected, their strengths and limitations, and how best to leverage technology on the battlefield.

Naval officers must also think critically. Midshipmen learn to discern fact from fiction, question basic assumptions, analyze vast amounts of information and assess dynamic situations with clear logic in order to make well-reasoned decisions in the most stressful situations.

The Naval Academy is but one rung in the ladder of lifelong learning. That learning will continue throughout their careers. The Academy is committed to providing our midshipmen with a rigorous academic program that will enable them to succeed in the Fleet. Our goal is to provide the Navy and Marine Corps with graduates who have the basic professional competencies of a naval officer, the technical confidence to comprehend today’s complex systems, and the critical thinking skills that allow them to develop effective solutions to tough problems. This forms the basis for our curriculum—and leads to granting all graduates a Bachelor of Science degree.

Midshipman Life: Physical Development 20

The Naval Academy program challenges midshipmen physically so that when they graduate they will be prepared to successfully lead in combat. We want future officers to be team builders and learn how to motivate others to excel. We want them to be resilient when facing adversity. We want them to compete on the athletic field—and ultimately fight on the battlefield—to win.

It is important that midshipmen learn about teamwork and how the team as a whole succeeds because collectively their efforts are greater than the sum of individual contributions. Individuals on teams learn to work as a unit to achieve a common goal; in combat, teamwork spells success or failure. A great place for our future officers to learn and understand the value of teamwork is on the athletic field. Through intramurals, club sports or varsity athletics, we require each midshipman to fully participate, to play on a team and strive to win. The fundamentals of analyzing an opponent and then bringing their own team’s strengths to bear against the other team’s weaknesses are taught through competition on the athletic field. In order to win, midshipmen must set high goals for themselves and their team and find a way to meet them. Our intent is that by the time they enter the Fleet or Marine Corps as junior officers, midshipmen have learned not only what teamwork, determination and leadership mean—but how they transcend to succeeding in combat.

Developing midshipmen physically is about hard work, stamina, and physical and mental toughness.

Leaders must learn to fight, and never accept defeat, on the playing field or the battlefield.

Commissioning Week Commissioning Week is what most midshipmen say they’ve been anticipating for four years. “Commissioning Week makes it all worthwhile,” according to the “firsties,” or seniors. Traditions and special events provide opportunities for families and midshipmen to share accomplishments and celebrate their commissioning as an officer in the Navy or Marine Corps. From spectacular aerial demonstrations by the Blue Angels, to parades, dances and the graduation and commissioning ceremony, the entire Yard relishes the week-long celebration.

As the newly-commissioned officers give a final cheer for those they leave behind, they toss their midshipman hats high into the air in a moment of celebration. After graduation, a few more traditions prevail: family members or special friends pin on the new Navy ensign’s shoulder boards or the Marine Corps second lieutenant’s gold bars, and the first person who salutes a new ensign or second lieutenant is presented a silver dollar by the graduate.

Supporting Organizations Naval Academy Athletic Association Ricketts Hall, Naval Academy, 410-293-2700 www.navysports.com The Naval Academy Athletic Association is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization charged with providing resources to support the varsity and junior varsity programs offered by the Naval Academy. The NAAA operates with the guidance of their Board of Control, whose members report to the Superintendent of the U.S. Naval Academy. Over 90% of funding support for the NAAA programs is through external sources of revenue (i.e. Blue & Gold memberships, ticket sales, corporate sponsorship, television revenue, parking, etc.). Less than 10% of the operating budget for the varsity and junior varsity programs is provided by the Academy via government funding. Therefore, Blue & Gold memberships are critical to provide our teams with the supplemental dollars necessary to close the “resource gap” between the Naval Academy teams and our Division I competition. Private support is critical to NAAA's success.

To join The Blue & Gold or to request more information, contact: The Blue-N*-Gold 566 Brownson Road, Annapolis, MD 21402 Attn: Blue-N*-Gold 410-293-8708, AthleticDevelopment@usna.edu www.NavySports.com Tickets for athletic contests in the Yard can be purchased through NAAA (1-800-US-4-NAVY).

U.S. Naval Academy Band 101 Buchanan Road, Annapolis, MD 21402 410-293-1262 www.usna.edu/USNABand The primary mission of the U.S. Naval Academy Band is to provide musical support for official functions of the Superintendent and the Commandant of Midshipmen, and to support the Brigade of Midshipmen by performing at appropriate functions involving the brigade. In addition, the band is tasked to perform in support of official functions, ceremonies, and other events where such performances will enhance the morale and esprit de corps of the brigade; support pride, professionalism, and retention within the naval service; and represent the Department of the Navy in a musical capacity that promotes community relations and enhance the Navy's public image.

The U.S. Naval Academy Band supports the Brigade of Midshipmen at a formal dress parade on Worden Field. Worden Field, the official parade field of the U.S. Naval Academy, was first used for parades about 1900 when the construction of Bancroft Hall took over the site of the former parade field. It was formally dedicated in memory of Rear Admiral John L. Worden, USN (1818-1897) in 1912. As a lieutenant, Worden had been commander of USS Monitor in its famous battle with CSS Virginia (ex-USS Merrimack) during the Civil War. He served as the 7th Superintendent of the Naval Academy from 1869 to 1874. A son and grandson of Admiral Worden attended the dedication of the parade field. In its early years Worden Field also served as the "stadium" for home football games, baseball, and lacrosse until a real stadium was constructed in 1924 beyond the seaward end of Dahlgren Hall.

Escape Safely Let’s face it, water is nature’s mirror for the sun and when the two meet; it’s a match made in photographic heaven. Spring is the perfect time to make your escape to Kent County, MD. With Kent County’s 209 miles of shoreline, there are many locations where you can reflect and recharge. Meander along the banks and creeks which frame their rippled surface with reeds brimming with an iridescent glow on a paddle with Sultana Education Foundation; or sail with family or close friends for an offshore adventure while enjoying delectable treats to stimulate the palate of any food connoisseur. Intimate cruising adventures are a trademark in Kent County for those who are looking to break the monotony of daily life.

For more information on all that Kent County can offer you visit kentcounty.com
