Annapolis Page #6

Synopsis: Jake Huard, from a shipbuilders family, promised his dying mother he'd make it to Annapolis Naval Academy. Thanks to tenaciously bugging a Congressman he's selected, despite dubious grades. Once inside Jake soon proves sub-standard academically. Constantly challenged to his limits, repeatedly made the 'over-cocky' reason for the entire class to suffer, Jake nearly quits, but after facing his utterly unsupportive father's gloating returns just in time. Stubborn Jake finds support with mates as well as Ali, his lover-to-be, and a discipline he may excel in: the 'brigade' boxing tournament, open to all ranks.

(man) Midshipman Huard, please stand.

Mr. Huard, this review board

finds you guilty of insubordination.

Sir, yes, sir.

However, based on the recommendation

of your company commander,

this board has decided to retain you.

Your punishment

will be 95 days' restriction and 95 demerits.

Punishment will commence immediately

upon your return from summer cruise.

Is that understood?

Sir, yes, sir.

Congratulations, Midshipman Huard.

Thank you, sir.

Class of 2008.

Congratulations.

You just completed your plebe year.

(all) Plebes no more!

Your summer leave starts...

- (all cheer)

Three more years, man.

I'll see you, man.

- Congratulations, Jake.

- Thank you, ma'am.

- Any plans before your summer cruise?

- Uh, yeah.

I think I might go over to Sir Frankie's

and see if there are any escorts around.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Save your money.

- Plebes no more.

- Plebes no more.

- I'll see you at Sir Frankie's.

- You got it.

Sir.

I want to thank you.

- For what?

- For helping me with the review board.

It wasn't about you, Huard.

That was about this academy.

Good luck out there.

Sir.

What do you think would have happened

if that fight went another round?

You really want to find out?

Come join me in the Marines.
