Indoctrination at Maritime College

[@markgucwa4247]

My first day in 2001 someone jumped off the Throgg's Neck and died. Dad said "Have fun" and took off. The start of the best four years of my life. Domer Class of '05

You were my IDO in '03

Do civilian students access the same study program?

Help me understand what learning how to march has to do with maintaining a ship's engines.

[@LightofBankai]

Learning how to March establishes many qualities. Learning how to move in cohesion with your colleagues, teamwork, and most importantly discipline. These qualities builds the ability to stay focus while multitasking while working on an engine, attention to details when working on an engine, following orders, policies and procedures when working in an engine.

@@LightofBankai Yeah, bullshit. Thousands upon thousands of Hawespipers work on engines better than Academy Grads, and they never had to do this BS. This is just so you can pretend to be part of the Navy.

Well said, Ms. McSweeney, et. al.
