What is the most famous statue at the Naval Academy and who is it?

You will find none of these by Googling, lol so take caution in your answers...

The Herndon Memorial.... Statue of Captain William Lewis Herndon, died Sept. 12th, 1857 when he decided to go down with his ship, the SS Central America

How did i do?

Well, I went and looked in my oldest daughter's orientation/syllabus folder she had received for back when she received her nomination for Annapolis... was kind of upsetting when she chose a different career path... Jamie is working on her RN along with majoring in Psychology.

It talked about the plebes making the climb before they reached midshipman...

Oh well...

Conograts GhostCDB on being accepted to the Naval Academy. Those nominations are hard to get...

The answer to the second question is absolutely in that packet.  You may not realize what it is and how much it is hated.  Its one of those subtle "proof" points, lol.  Only a plebe will recognize its meaning.
