The Naval Academy's culture is a unique and sometimes baffling
phenomenon to the outside world, but with this newly updated guide
in hand relatives and friends of midshipmen will find answers to
all the questions they might have about Academy life. Since it was
first published in 1993, parents have relied on the almanac for
insights into their sons' and daughters' experiences at Annapolis.
Now the son of the original author has taken on the responsibility
of bringing the popular reference up to date. An active duty naval
officer, Academy graduate, and former English instructor at the
Academy, the younger Mackenzie makes full use of his intimate
knowledge of Annapolis to fill in the gaps. Here you'll find a
guide to Internet resources along with the latest facts on car
ownership, dating policies, athletic requirements, and disciplinary
demands. A midshipman profile and a dictionary of "Midspeak"
completes the picture in a book whose title recalls the
midshipmen's own manual, Reef Points, but extends its concept for
outsiders seeking practical information about the Academy, the
Navy, and Annapolis. Prospective applicants, graduates, newcomers
to the USNA staff, and visitors seeking a memento will also be
attracted to this useful guide. Ross H. Mackenzie is a Navy
helicopter pilot currently stationed in Jacksonville, Florida.
