What better way to mark the culmination of a year of intensive training than by scurrying to the top of a 21-foot-tall oil-slicked obelisk with your nearly-naked peers?
For the roughly 1,000 freshman at the U.S. Naval Academy, wrapping up the year by climbing the Herdon Monument is a rite of passage.
Some traditions should never be broken.
This year they accomplished their task of knocking off a cap on the tip and replacing it with a new one in 1 hour, 12 minutes and 30 seconds, which we hear is quite fast.
How about we take this to the next level?

@Billy Budd: He has a mega-handsome face, too. But I would be glad to help make sure nobody is left out, fur-impaired or not.

I did that in May 1984 at the conclusion of my own USNA Plebe year. Trust me, it looks a lot better than it feels. I’ll never forget the smell.
Billy Budd
@ogotay: Well, then I must add that, provided that they had taken a shower afterwards, I would love to put all of them in line and suck each of their dicks, one by one, until no one is left out!
