U.S. Naval Academy (May. 18, 2004) A Midshipman grimaces as he and his squad lift a log above their heads as part of Sea Trials. The "capstone" event places fourth-class midshipmen in a physically and mentally demanding environment that instills in them the values of good leadership, teamwork, and perseverance. Sea Trials allows the fourth class to participate in a memorable and worthwhile event that teaches them much about their own abilities and limitations as well as the advantages of working as a team.
