That first day we were taught to sound-off and march and were given our first set of khaki shirts, a pair of plebe shorts, and no fuss haircut. Since then we’ve been indoctrinated, ac- cepted, recognized, and even re- stricted from time to time; but fi- nally on June 20th, 1988 we graduated. This is the continuing story of those people who choose to come to and then remain in this Academy. The Corps of Cadets is now fifty years old and the Academy now in its 46th year, but the beginnings go back much earlier. The Mer- chant Marine Act of March 3, 1891 attempted to improve the state of the U.S. Merchant Marine. This act contained provisions that set up a practice of carrying ca- (HANT MARINE ACADEMY THE CAMPUS dets on ships based on their size and tonnages. These cadets were young Americans under 21 who were to hold rank as Petty Officers, be trained in the duties of seamanship and receive a reasonable pay. This proved to be an unsatisfactory way to train ship’s officers. The Jones-White Act of 1928 tried to solve the problem by repealing the previous act and bring- ing the cadet’s training under the mail subsidy portion of the law, but the harsh working conditions and low pay discour- aged young men from joining the program and few were able to obtain and sail on their licenses. In the early 1930’s suggestions began to be made to start a Federal Academy to train officers for service in the American Merchant Marine. Then in 1934 the MORROW CASTLE caught fire and in January of 1935 the MOHAWK was in- volved in a collision in which'over 150 lives were lost. These two disasters brought to light, the level of incompetence that was then plaguing the industry and on June 14, 1935 Presi- dent Roosevelt urged the formation of a Federal Academy and an officer training program.

Rear Admiral Wiley, USN undertook the plan to develop a train- ing system under this act. The U.S. Merchant Marine Cadet Corps was es- tablised on March 15, 1938. The origi- nal Corps consisted of 99 men who were previously under the company system of training estab- lished by the 1928 Act. To be consid- ered, the Engine Ca- dets had to have two years experience in a shipyard, a boiler manufacturing plant, or a technical college. Deck Ca- dets were required to have at least a high school educa- tion. These men were given a list of subsidized compa- nies to which they could apply for their training aboard a ship. On January 1, 1939 the Maritime com- mision took over the selection of cadets. Richard R. McNulty became the first su- pervisor of the Ca- det Corps in the same year, and on April 17, 1939 The first competitive tests were given to candidates. In July 1939 the Cadet Corps had increased its ranks to 216 men. Opposite Page: A wintery scene of the Academy Chapel.

In July of 1936 the Corps reached its maxi- mum strength of 7,338 cadets. Training facilities were located on all coasts, but the East Coast facilities were inadequate. Finally on March 4, 1942, Presi- dent Roosevelt authorized the purchase of the Walter P. Chrys- ler estate for the building of a fed- eral academy. The Academy was dedicated on September 30th, 1943. Prior to this the students had lived in tem- porary housing and had attended classes in Wiley Hall. Clockwise from below left: Sunsets with the waterfront in view. View past the waterfront.

Though not many looked forward to marching, it was not that bad and no one ever died during these times of prolonged standing. It is all part of the Kings Point Experi- ence just as the inspections, course load, and the mixers are part of this experience. Clockwise from above: The Color Guard carries the American flag, the Battle Standard, and the Academy flag; The Reviewing Of- ficer troops the line; The Cannon Squad at work on a Saturday morning; Rear Admiral Krinsky in his first year as Suprintendent; The Regimental Staff stands be- fore the Regiment of Midshipmen; Johnny Wolfe holds the scepter. 12 Opening There are many sources of en- joyment that the Midshipmen may participate in at the Acad- emy. There is the Waterfront, Sports, Clubs and Activities, and even a social life that comes from a group of people sharing the same experiences that bind them together. Kings Pointers make lifelong friends at the Academy. There is a sense of comradery between the people who attend and graduate from Kings Point. May everyone look back on their years spent here and think of the friendships that were made, and have fond mem- ories come to mind.

This academy is dedicated to the training of officers mindful of the honorable calling of the sea, who will maintain the highest tradi- tions of our Merchant Marine. Howard B. French Lieut.

Faculty And Administration 27 DEPARTMENT OF MARINE TRANSPORTATION The Department of Marine Transportation offers the midshipman the opportunity to specialize by taking elec- tives offered by either of two divisions. A specialization in the Division of Nautical Sci- ence can provide indepth knowledge of the technical aspects of ship operation. Midshipmen can develop a basic foundation in marine electronics, domestic ship- ping, advanced tanker opera- tions, offshore vessel recov- ery, and small vessel operations by utilizing the electives available in the Nau- tical Science Division. Completion of the core curric- ulum in Marine Transporta- tion and concentrations in management in the Division of Maritime Business and Ad- ministration can provide stu- dents with a foundation in maritime law, statistical methods, environmental law and regulation, personnel management, industrial psy- chology, and international trade. Midshipmen are encouraged by faculty advisors to select from the inventory of courses in the Department of Engi- neering and Department of Math and Science that are best suited to their career ob- jectives. Courses in the areas of engineering economics, small engine maintenance and repair, operations re- search, probability, statistics, and chemistry of hazardous cargos are among those of- fered which are recom- mended.

It ac- complishes these objectives through a mix of practical courses such as strength of materials and fluid mechanics. During the plebe year, the students who choose the engi- neering curriculum are ex- posed to the basic essentials of marine engineering. The academic portion of the sec- ond and third class years pre- sents the students with their first professional engineering courses. Both sailing periods are also utilized to supple- ment classroom instruction through the on-the-job expe- rience gained through the un- derclass years in the marine engineering and diesel courses. The Department of Engineer- ing also offers the Marine En- gineering Systems program, which includes all of the fea- tures of the Marine Engineer- ing program, and adds em- phasis on the math and engineering design. By virtue of these additions, it is accred- ited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology. Elective concen- trations are offered in analy- sis and design, computer en- gineering, electrical engineering, engineering eco- nomics, fluid thermal power systems, naval architecture, or nuclear engineering.

Head), Ratay, Howell, Ceasar, Shurpik, Lebensohn. Not pic- tured: Professors Weber, Cassar, Drago, Dellwo, Lazara, Weiss, Goetz. The Department of Math and Science serves to provide a fundamental founda- tion for both the Marine Transportation and Engineering programs. Basic courses in the physical sciences such as college Physics and Chemistry, college level courses in Calculus and Differential Equations are at the head of the depart- ment's offerings. In order to introduce students to advanced areas of science and serve some of their special needs, there are a wide range of electives available. Offerings in Atomic and Nuclear Phys- ics, Hazardous Materials, Ocean Chem- istry, Solar Energy, Probability and Sta- tistics, Operations Research, and Astrophysics are some of the electives that have attracted many students. Faculty And Administration 31 DEPARTMENT OF HUMANITIES The Department of Humanities is charged with the broader aspect of a midshipman's training. This de- partment likes to regard itself as the “baccalaureate department of the Academy. It offers the kinds of liberal arts courses which prepare the midshipman to be a whole man. It teaches no professional courses required for licensing, but rather those which are re- quired to award an academic degree. Fourth class year consists of three quarters of old- fashioned English, literature and composition, with considerable emphasis on the latter in the remainder of the program to insure the development of basic skills in writing. This emphasis is vital to the overall development of a graduate who is able to write techni- cal reports or written logs. During second and third class years, the department's program consists of three quarters of modern Europe- an and American history. The first class program permits the student to choose between a series of courses in Humanities, Compara- tive Culture, or spoken French or Spanish. Humanities explores in greater depth the development of the West- ern intellectual tradition in the area of philosophy, religion, science, and art. The Comparative Culture track utilizes an anthropological approach in an effort to provide insight into the important developing soci- eties of the Third World. The program of the Department of Humanities is de- signed to balance the technical and professional em- phasis in the rest of the curriculum. As graduates move on to positions of increasing responsibility in their professional careers, they discover that it is the world of people and ideas rather than techniques and things upon which continuing success depends. Hu- manities courses seek to open windows on the world and to provide a basis for continuing personal growth.

RACK ’N ROLL i ■nm 48 Midshipman Life The class of 1988 came through Vick- ery Gate for the very first time on July 10th, 1984, 306 members strong and ready to experience college life. I'm sure that each of us 215 or so remaining in the class can still remember the nervous- ness and anxiety that we felt as we waved farewell to our parents and friends and em- barked upon our first of many voyages — this one called INDOC. I know that more than one plebe candidate was wondering that hot, humid day, What have I gotten myself into? The next two weeks served to exhaust and deflate our bodies and our spirits, but more importantly, it strengthened bonds of friendship and loyalty. Honor, Duty, Uni- ty, and Pride! These, we were informed by our pushers on that first day, were the traits that would be instilled in each one of us, whether we wanted them or not. Remarkable as it may have seemed, most of us did make it through indoc. The craziness of those two weeks served not only to unite us in a common cause—survival—but to prepare us for even more difficult days to come, the academic school years. So, while the rigorous schedule of indoc, with its pre- dawn cals, morning inspections, after- noon drill, and evening plebe functions (not to mention the constant sounding-off, the screaming of plebe knowledge, the bulkhead drills, the shoe polishing and buckle brasso-ing, and the showers which seemed only to turn dirt to mud) may have worn us out physically, Calculus squelched any hope we may have had left that we could, in fact, graduate in 1988. Our indoc, however, had so united us, that we refused to allow our fellow classmates to lag it alone. So, we got up at 0610 every morning, and we went to mess duty, and we did our clean- ing stations, and we stood inspection, and finally, after what seemed like eternity, we were accepted into the Regiment of Midshipmen. Candidates no longer, we were determined to prove our class and school spirit through academic, athletic, and regimental excel- lence. We became involved in many of the extracurricular activities offered by the Academy. We became quarterbacks and rugby stars, sailors and swimmers. We be- came debators and computer jocks, and calculus wizards! We raised considerable funds for donation to the Muscular Dys- trophe Association, and after another eter- nity, we were recognized. Recognition took place on what seemed the coldest and muddiest day of the year, but spirits were high. After a gruelling recogni- tion run, our class came together to congra- dulate one another on a job well done! The next milestone to look forward to was IDSHIPMAN LIFE midshipman (mid-ship-men) n. 1. A student training to become a commissioned naval officer, esp. a student at a naval academy. 2.

With the commencement of June Weekend, 1985, we once again waved a bitter- sweet farewell, not only to our graduating midshipman, but to our B-split friends and classmates as well. We wished them “fair winds and following seas as they departed for their ships. We had mixed feelings about their departure because we had all grown so close during plebe year. We wondered what life at KP would be like for us without them. But at the same time, we were excited for them, and somehow it seemed that we shared the expectancy and nervousness that accompanied our B-splits up the gang-ways of their first ships. Six months passed, and suddenly it was time for the B-splits to return to the Academy for the A-splits to go out to sea. These, our in-between years, the third and second class years seemed to fly by. This is not to suggest that nothing significant was accom- plished during this time. Our days spent aboard ship were rare experiences. At times the day-to-day shipboard life may have seemed monotonous, but in retrospect, I think we all must agree that sea year was priceless: the ports we called upon, the people we met, the friendships we established, the education we received! Sea year taught us many new things—not only navigation and propulsion. Sea introduced us to the customs and cultures of the world, and it taught us much about the fine art of dealing with people from all walks of life. Meanwhile, back at KP, the regiment was con- stantly going through changes and adjust- ments. 1987 saw the change of command of our Academy Superintendent. RADM Thom- as A. King was succeeded by RADM Paul L. Krinsky in an impressive ceremony that dis- played all the pomp and military circum- stances that such an occasion would call for. Our middle years mourned the passage of our beloved Sailing Master Capt. Charles A. Joe Prosser. Our middle years also saw the introduction of USMC officers and soldiers to our campus. 52 Midshipman Life Relaxation . . Ready all . . . Row! _ Our Honor Concept was revamped, and cer- tain key words seemed to echo through our hallowed halls: honor, consistency, logistics and Ooo-rah! to name just a few. Our regi- ment shrank in size to such an extent that we no longer required seven companies and three battalions, so we became six and two. Our in-between years also witnessed the pas- sage of campus prohibition. Our Pub was con- verted into somewhat of a Soda Shop until it was decided how best to handle the serving of beer to midshipmen. So, we had our dry mixers and formal balls, but even without the Pub, we managed to keep ourselves enter- tained. The warm seasons found many-a-mid- shipman soaking up the rays at Eldridge Pool (Fag Beach) and many an afternoon and eve- ning spent in the backpark participating in various social and recreational gatherings. And so went our middle years, in a blur, and before we knew it, we were seniors. With all of the worries of sea project and internal cums behind us, the Class of 1988 was reunit- ed. We celebrated our reunion at the Ring Dance, and then the countdown began: 300 nights! 200 nights! 100 nights! And then there was license, the week that we most looked forward to and dreaded. License was the cul- mination of all that we had worked for, stud- ied for, LIVED for since first walking through that gate, and then that was over, and the only thing left to wait for was graduation. We took this time between license and gradua- tion to dream about our futures, to formulate the goals and to take the first steps toward their completion. We waited for the resumes and interviews and applications to do their magic, and we began to realize that soon, soon it would all be over, but it would all be begin- ning as well. We took this opportunity to ap- preciate our friends and classmates, realizing that it could be a while before we would all be together again. So we made a special effort to make many wonderful memories which would last us forever. If there is one lesson which we as Kings Point- ers have learned, it is saying farewell. In this sense, we truly lead the lives of seamen. We are constantly embarking upon voyage after voyage, and we must leave behind, at least for a time, the people that we love. But at the same time, we carry in our hearts the memories we cherish, and these serve to sustain us through whatever heavy seas we may travel. Class of 1988, Kings Point, I bid you farewell.

Shames M N X: Hey Dude, what's up? M N Y: Not much, Dude. What're you doing on the farm? M N X: I'm a warrior, need you ask? M N Y: Oh yeah, what'd he get you for? over-sized beer poster? tangling with a scuttlebut? M N X: Nah, O.T.W. I was coming back from the park last week, and 1 ran right into him. M N Y: Sh-t happens, man. Where was he? M N X: Hangin' out at the gatehouse, checking for issued socks. M N Y: Bummer, dude. What'd he stick you? M N X: 50 6. You know he'd rather not bother with less than that. M N Y: Class II's really bite, huh? M N X: Yup. How 'bout you, dude? I thought you were a stud. What'd you get nabbed for? M N Y: You wouldn't believe it if I told you. M N X: Try me. M N Y: Harry caught me doing the scream during finals. M N X: And you're still on restriction? M N Y: Well, I deferred. My cousin got married. M N X: Hey, check it out, the B.J.'s MCDO. M N Y: Good deal. At least we won't have to worry about Jap Pi's. M N X: I don't know. I hear he's been flamin' since he got boards. M N Y: Yeah, 1 heard that too. Man, I hate this place. M N X: Yup, worst place to be, best place to be from. M N Y: I guess. M N X: Hey, how'd you do on C.B.'s test? M N Y: I flagged it. M N X: Yeah, me too. This quarter is killing my cume. M N Y: I know. Smokin' Joe, C.B., Paquette, Black Mac, and Zim Zam! Why are they doing this to us? M N X: Shoulda gone deck. M N Z NOW ENTERS THE CONVERSATION. M N Z: I don't know, man. Tugboat Ted and Dirtball Hall are reaming the deckies this quarter, and Captain Hard can always be counted on for a D O. M N X: Yeah, but at least you guys watch Moonlighting every week. M N Y: And at least you can still go to Gantry's on $2 liter night. M N Z: Not for a while, though. I'm on the farm, remember? M N Y: So? M N Z: Hey, I hear there's a bunkcheck tonight. M N Y: Great. My girlfriend's cornin' to pick me up later. M N X: You still going out with that mixer queen? M N Y: Nah. This one's a nanny. M N X: Oh yeah, which one? M N Z: Hey, chill out guys. Its Sloth. M N Y: I thought Sluggo was supposed to be onboard tonight. M N X: I think he's doing his ACDUTRA for the next two weeks. M N Y: So, wanna go for some Rats later, after the last muster? M N X: Rats and Blatz? Sounds good, but what about the bunk check? M N Y: Blow it off. What's another six on the farm? M N X: Really. Maybe it'll help me get some work done. M N Y: Better call the nanny. Arcade at eleven? M N X: Sounds good. M N Y: Later, dude. M N X: Later. THIS CONVERSATION IS COMPLETELY FICTITIOUS, AS FAR AS THE AUTHOR KNOWS, BUT NAMES HAVE BEEN WITHHELD TO PRO- TECT THE POSSIBLE GUILTY. 70 Midshipman Life W HAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?

Who else but Lonnie would rack in their wardrobe? For whatever reasons, many, if not all midshipmen become very famil- iar with their racks while at the Academy. The rack has many nick- names, among which are: rack, bunk, bed, big blue magnet, sack, and home. Plebe year brings the concept of racking into an entirely new perspective for most midship- men. Sleep becomes a very rare and valuable commodity, and this con- ceptualization seems to carry over throughout one's stay here. 82 Midshipman Life 84 Midshipman Life Midshipman Life 85 86 Midshipmen Life 88 V . ► m 90 Rotation And Underclassmen Contents Regimental Staffs Battalion Staff 1st Company 2nd Company 3th Company 4th Company 5th Company 6th Company The Heart And Soul Of The United States Merchant Marine Academy Rests On The Strength Of The Men Who Have Earned The Right To Claim The Title Of Midshipmen Of The Regiment. f r (Far left) first rotation Saturday review Second battalion RX and ROPS Mike Fran- kel and Levi Ross REG STAFF A-SPLIT RC HARRIS RX WOLFE ROPS RECK RTO SOLT RFL McLOUGHLIN RCGC MURPHY RLO BLASCHKO RIO SNYDER RHBC ELLIS RHBCX SIRAGUSA RHBCI MAHON RHGC MCDONALD RHGX FERRARO RPO IWASAKI RWO MCDERMOTT RWX HANUS 92 REG STAFF B-SPLIT Sitting L. to R, Vogel, Frankel, Tweedel, Ross, Orapeza.

By the time a midshipman reaches this point in his Academy career, he or she has al- ready overcome difficult hurdles— both academic and regimental. The typical plebe has heard strange and hair-raising stories from upperclass- men about the metal mammoths, which we now realize to have been exaggerations. The sea year experi- ence, however, is as close to reality as anything gets; genuine hazards exist as well as some truly outrageous happenings. When we, as nervous cadets, boarded our first ships, it was not without hesitation. We left behind us family and friends who were not to be seen for at least four or five months. We realized too late that although we had overpacked for the voyage, we still had forgetten to bring some of the things we needed, but there was no time to dwell on this matter. Ready or not, we hit the bridge or descended to the engine room, anticipating our first assignments. Some of us were disap- pointed to find that our first tasks were merely chipping paint or fetch- ing tools, but soon enough, more chal- lenging jobs would replace mundane chores. At times, life at sea may not seem glamorous, and it is never constant. One day may find us pulling apart an electrical motor, charging a reefer sys- tem, timing a diesel engine, or paral- leling generators. Another day may find us plotting the ship's position on a chart using an ancient, time-honed, and seemingly archaic method of navigation, standing a red-eyed morn- ing watch, locating, securing, keeping track of cargo, or striving to achieve the perfect tan (which can sometimes be all-important.) But working is only one aspect of life at sea. We all had to learn the many strange procedures of shipboard life, and to deal with equal- ly strange people. We discovered that a cadet is somewhere in a grey area— not quite an officer and not really a deck hand or wiper. Sometimes we found ourselves in charge of projects, and sometimes we found ourselves swamped in a seemingly endless sup- ply of important paperwork. Skills crucial in a maritime job are often learned the hard way. These skills can include getting out of the way, saying the right thing at the 114 Sea Year right time, not saying anything at all, using diplomacy when waking a 4 to 8 watchstander (especially if he is on watch) remaining calm and collected when the plant is lost while steaming through the English Channel, and even keeping track of the spaghetti like maze of pipes and lines which serves as the guts of a ship. Being on a tanker meant mucking up residue product or crude, endless turning of valves, patiently filling tank after tank, and of course NO SMOKING. Containerships are a relatively new innovation in a traditionally un- changing merchant fleet. However, the more complex a ship is, the more involved are the problems which spring up. Counting hundreds of plain, hulking boxes and placing them strategically—according to weight, content, and hazardous con- tents—can mean long hours of work and irritation. Diesel ships can be very demanding on our engine cadets. As would a baby, diesels require con- stant care and pampering. We must change the injectors and lube oil; check its temperature and pulse; ween it on purified fuel; and change the pleated filters that it soils without fail. Breakbulk ships seem so out of date that Baker's Introduction to Steel Shipbuilding actually still applies. Breakbulks do, however, make up for their age with their inherent extended port stays. These can often be a saving grace for sea-weary cadets. A growing trend in today's shipping is long periods of time spent in transit or at sea. This is especially true in the case of tankers. Cadets learn the fine art of patience and do-it-yourself en- tertainment during these long and te- dious time warps. If nothing else, one can add to his laurels the fact that he has seen The Road Warrior and Weird Science seven times each. Movies on video tape are to sanity what aspirin is to headaches, and both are expended at a high rate at sea. Hangovers, hang nails, and hanging out to dry become part of the daily routine. Perhaps these preoccupations preclude the perilous procrastination of a Pointer's sea project. This frightening phenom- enon of philandering free time instead of focusing on the freezing philoso- phy of freezing points or filling tanks can mean a future fit or writing frenzy. One is not a true Kings Pointer unless he has known the sheer and unadul- terated terror that comes from the ne- cessity of finishing a detailed archi- tectural drawing or pipeline diagram Sea Year 115 in one hour. Often we vow “this won't happen again, but it usually does, like a recurring nightmare. A well known and oft-used parable sums it all up: If God were a Kings Pointer, He would have rested six days and pulled an all-nighter on the seventh. Sea year has one unparalled advantage over Academy life—shore leave. Kings Pointers are exposed not only to a hands-on training program at sea, but they are also exposed to the differ- ent cultures and lifestyles of the world. The Med, the Far East, South America, and Europe become the stomping grounds for Kings Pointers, and hence the saying. The World is our Playground. We visited places during our sea years that many people will never hope to see (or might never have wanted to see.) We experienced people and places without a map or a tour guide. The overall light-hearted, good time that we are so very fortu- nate to have had during our sea years, can never be duplicated by future business trips or vacations to these same places, and we are aware of that. We are very fortunate to have had these wonderful experiences. Aside from the usual trinkets that we all bring home from sea, and aside from the photographs and memories that we save, long after the trinkets have been broken, there is another item that many Kings Pointers bring home from sea (and it is not some- thing which requires the immediate administering of penicillin). It is the SEA STORY. Back at the Academy, sea stories are traded like baseball cards, further and further embellished with every tell- ing, like folklore, each story has a fa- miliar style, like a fine work of art—or more likely, a fine reproduction. A sea story is much like a child's fairy tale, but there are certain differences. Whereas a fairy tale opens with Once upon a time ... a sea story begins This ain't no shit.. . The middle of a sea story is a mish-mosh of extraor- dinary events which include all the 116 Sea Year -------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I gory details of a Grimms Brothers fable. The ending is transformed from . . and they all lived happily ever after. to .. and it's been screwed up ever since. One might wonder why it is that with such a colorful life, no one has both- ered to compile a documentary on to- day's seaman, and the answer is sad but simple: the mariner, once numer- ous world over, is now a vanishing species.

The Honor Guard served well as liasons between the public rela- tions office and the people who came to the Academy for tours, weddings and the many weekend reviews. Here we have pictured the two capable leaders along with the rest of the Honor Guard, and the Mariner bell at one of the many home football games. -5 3 COLOR GUARD Mike Murphy and the rest of the Color Guard did an excellent job of raising the Ensign each morning this year. Although the Color Guard did not go to as many MET'S games this year, they did look good during formal reviews and marching competition. I think we will all rest easy knowing that the Color Guard is falling into the capable hands of John Wallace (and out of Murph's) upon graduation. 149 ARTS AND WORLD AFFAIRS COMMITTEE The Arts and World Affairs Commit- tee, under the leadership of John Bowerman and Amy Shames, provid- ed quite a lot of entertainment and opportunities for the regiment to trav- el to the city and see a good show. Everyone enjoyed Me and My Girl , La Bayadere , and the Shakespeare Theater Production The Importance of Being Earnest here at the Acade- my. Proceeds from these and other shows helped out the June Weekend activities. I Society of Women Engineers The Society of Women En- gineers closed out the year with a controversial dinner commemorating the tenth anniversary of female KP graduates. Elain Chao, Deputy Administrator of Marad, was the guest speaker at this dinner. Club president Amy Shames also kept the group active with lobbying in NevV York and Washing- ton D. C. As club presi- dent, Amy successfully wrapped up one of the most vocal and active years for the Mariner chapter. SPORTSMAN’S CLUB This year's Sportsman Club took part in many activities to further growth and development in club members. Although we did not see too many members reppelling off of Gibbs Hall this year, we did see Ted Schmidt and the rest of the members running a booth at August's MDA Carnival. They netted almost double the amount of money for Muscular Dystrophy than any oth- er booth that night, and 1 am sure that having Ted's face in the sponge throw had a lot to do with it! SOCIAL COMMITTEE The Social Committee, chaired by Mike No- wak, had a successful Spring of class parties, mixers, and a June Weekend we will all re- member. All of the class officers took part in planning events to get the regiment through the winter doldrums and beach quarter here at the Academy. First and foremost were the first class parties, and a second class bash with the women of Briarcliffe college. Mrs. Cunning- ham, as usual, was in- strumental in putting these events together, and as a liason between the committee and Wi- ley Hall. CANNON SQUAD 152 Joe Mata and the rest of the boys taking part in this year's Cannon Squad did an excellent job of hon- oring each reviewing officer. These guys sounded great during all the reviews, and never lost a finger or blew an ear drum, which is more than the rest of us can say. And, as we all can see here, these guys real- ly looked great too. VARSITY CLUB This year's Varsity club was headed up by everyone's favorite zombo and all around Athlete Brian Rhoades. He did a great job of getting things organized in the snack bar in the weeks prior to the first home football game, and kept things together through the entire season. When Brian wasn't around. Chuck Harris was always there to pick up the slack. Although we did not have the best seats in the house for the games, the jackets we earned through snack shack profits will be cherished forever. 153 KARATE CLUB This year's young, hard core Academy karate team. 154 Over the last four years the Trident Club has educated a great deal of Midshipmen in the exciting world of diving. The club continues to be the most demanded of activities. This year was very successful for the Trident Club. More than thirty midshipmen completed the Basic o- pen water certification SCUBA course in both the Fall and Spring classes. In addition, an advanced certifica- tion course was underway but not completed due to unforseen circumstances. Finally, the club itself made several dives this year including two in a quarry in Pennsylvania and two at Montauk Point. Overall this success is due to the continued dedication of instruc- tors Bob and Donna Edgar in their fourteenth year of service at Kings Point and the efforts of club president Steffanie Rao and Vice President Barrie Snyder. 155 TRIDENT CLUB A NEWMAN CLUB The Newman club has, as always, been an integral part of the Academy for the Catholic Midshipmen. Members continue to take part in many TEC re- treats, handicapped functions, and religious ser- vices and teachings. Each week the members get together for the purpose of developing their Catho- lic Faith, and to assist others in doing the same. One of the highlights for club members this year was Chaplin Bevins' 30th anniversary of priesthood. The club is a branch of the National Student Coalition. Under the direction of Craig Parker, the Newman club has been all smiles this year. GLEE CLUB The Chapel Choir and Glee Club has been responsible for the musi- cal offerings at both the Catholic and Protestant services through out the year. Along with this, the choir has performed at such special func- tions as the Chaplain Corps birth- day at Governor's Island, the Thanksgiving and Christmas ser- vices, and Father Bevins' thirtieth anniversary as a priest. The mem- bers come from all backgrounds, but through the leadership and in- spiration of Chris Cusamano (our director), they have been one family. Missing from photo are seniors Brian Holcomb and Johnny Wolf. CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP CLUB Brian Holcomb and the rest of the CFC members The Christian Fellowship Club (CFC) is a non- denominational organization dedicated to im- proving one's relationship with God. The club meets once a week to share in Fellowship and Bible study. These meetings range from a full hour of Bible study to meal and movies at the Chaplain's quarters. Some of the club's activities include cookouts, picnics, Christian concerts, and retreats. The retreats are the high point of each rotation, as weekends with good friends away from the Academy are great opportunities to grow closer to the Lord. DEBATE TEAM The Debate Team has not been as visible at the Academy this year as in the past. Gary Troy has again worked hard to keep interest going, and a young team should exist for a few years to come. The Debate Team members poised and ready. ■■5i f. This year's Academy chapter of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers enjoyed the usual evening of dinner and drinks at monthly SNAME conventions in New York. The SNAME organiza- tion is a great way to meet people in the maritime field, and quite possibly meet some job contacts while in your senior year. If nothing else, by joining SNAME you guarantee a letter from past Academy teachers once a week or so. Some of the topics at the monthly dinners are also quite interesting, and more than one Midshipman in the past four years has heard of how his ship was refitted with brand spanking new engines a year later. The topic of discussion is always discussed by the Midshipmen at the post conference reception, usually held at McSorleys.

PUB CLUB The Pub Club provided for some great fun as well as controversy throughout this year. At the beginning of our first class year many of us wondered if it would ever be possible to enjoy a few beers during the weekend, or if Land Hall would just become another NOAA apartment complex, or maybe even serve as a temporary logistics center until the new logistics pavillion is complete. Our prayers were answered through the initiative of a few classmates who thought the pub would be a worth- while venture. They didn't turn out to be the friendliest or generous of Pub Officers in the short history of our stay here at KP, but 1 think we all should be grateful that they opened up the pub anyway, making our last 300 days a little more bearable.

Club members Jim Drogalis, Randy Disharoon, and Mike Nowak worked hard to raise the record amount of 20,700 Dollars this year. Energy from Todd McKenna, Gary Vogel, John Mahon and Jim Forde was instrumental in accomplishing the goals the club set. Besides the Mariner five mil- ers, KP lotto, boards day, and the soda can collec- tions, the club this year threw the first ever MDA Kings Point carnival, which proved to be a huge success, thanks to the efforts of Jim Drogalis. Club members were rewarded by receiving a plane ticket for good ol' Las Vegas, Nevadai, as well as a hotel room at the incredible Ceasar's Palace Hotel. We all took advantage of the gam- bling, water skiing, golf, and oh, yes, the telethon during our six day stay. 1 think that all members would agree that the excitement of the Jerry Lew- is Telethon stands out in our memories the most. None of the things we did this year would not have been possible if it were not for the Defilippi Family. Mr. D knew when to light fires under our butts, and when to pat us on the back for a job well done. His advice on all matters from fundraising to dealing with Wiley Hall was in- strumental to the club's success this year. Second classmen Bar Weigman and Mike O'Donnell now hold the reins to this year's club, and we would like to wish them equal success and for- tune—especially in 'Vegas! 20,700 DOLLARS III “IT L.++ 161 RIFLE AND PISTOL CLUB Staff Seargent Kommer and his boys had a successful year down in the basement of Bowditch, ah, 1 mean Ackerman Auditorium.

These studs were assigned the task of keeping the men of Kings Point in shape and keeping the cellulite off the fe- male Mids. John Gallaher, K- Mac, B-Hee, Johnny Mac, and Mike Tomazic were highly in- strumental in enforcing the lat- ter function. 163 ETHNIC CULTURE CLUB The Ethnic Culture Club under the leadership of Derek Brown met on a regular basis to discuss issues concerning them. They were also going to have a party in Land Hall, but that was cancelled due to a first class party scheduled on the same night, which was even- tually shot down by the Admiral anyway. No one will ever say you never tried though, Derek Reserve Officer’s Association Each year ROA members receive numer- ous benefits from their club member- ship. The only one I can recall right now besides wearing another ribbon with your whites is occasional mail in the form of the National magazine. I know we all could use a little more mail, so hats off to these people! 164 EMERY RICE PROJECT One of the advantages of the Emery Rice Club is that Wiley hall provides all members with ample free time to ponder the makings of the engine, ex- cept between four and six, weekdays. This year marked a change, however, because club members who worked hard received academic credits as part of an independent study. Who else but Jim Forde, Tom Dolim, and Steve Hudenko would jump at this opportunity to learn more about Maritime History in ship's propulsion. The only other place to learn about this would be in the Academy's diesel lab!

The team was very active within Academy grounds, but most of its efforts were in preparation for presentations in the community of Great Neck and within the Stae of New York. As opposed to other years, this year the Drill Team was prepared to take an active role in a variety of drills and ceremonies. These included 21 gun salute details, color guard, honor guard, wedding and sword bearers, and exhibition and regulation drill. The midshipmen who are taking over the drill team next year are arranging to hold a drill competition to take place at the Academy. rjK EAR THI n3HnHHDHaD3HDaHDHHDHHDna I 1 H □ i R : Published by the Midshipmen of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy B a a □ a a Volume XLI, Number 4 March 1988 “The voice of the Regiment” In This Issue: • Commandant Interview • BONUS! Pull-out Poster • Females at KP • And Much, Much More! 1 Tomniini irafflcrafflcrafflcinfflLin I Ever since the class of 1988 walked through Vickery gate for the first time, HEAR THIS had struggled to produce anything but an infre- quent rag sheet from a select few even remotely concerned with in- forming the regiment. It seemed as though this year wouldn't be any different; but the initiative of a few had stimulated many more, and HEAR THIS has fast become a part of everyone's life. For the first time in years, regimental dialog has come into existence, has addressed major issues in less of a bickering manner, and has still caused every- one to laugh a little. Under the leadership of Randy Di- sharoon, the HEAR THIS staff made a quest for change, not so much for the Academy, but rather for the operation of Hear This. The regiment saw some- thing different with every issue, and the diversity of its contents made good reading for just about everyone. A new header sparked a brand new tradition; layout was performed on the computer using the Quark Press Program; a hard disc drive was pur- chased; advertisements were solicited once again; publications were month- ly; the number of pages per issue in- creased; overall quality improved; deadline notices were posted; ano- nymity was abolished; regular col- umns were established; poetry was in- cluded for variety; a survey was taken and the results printed; monthly con- tests were held to involved the entire regiment; and staff meetings were held weekly. Through the inspiration of Paul D. Haban, Brad Crowell per- formed miracles with the layout, Jeff Daufmann made advertise- ments a part of every issue. Chuck Chester kept everyone informed about the next dead- line, Pete Waugh distributed ev- ery paper to all members of the regiment, faculty and adminis- tration, and John Brashear kept the regiment updated on all as- pects of the sporting world. While Time MUrphy, Todd Mc- Kenna, and Claudia Cimini made everyone laugh with their comics, Jacqui Gerber organized the poetry section and Scott Landry organized the clubs and activities section. The HEAR THIS typists included Norm Wolf, Connie Crawford, Leslie Garrison, Dawn Ryder, and Lori Lundin, while proofreading was accomplished by Carolyn Mem- mer and Mike Dombrowski. Everyone cared. Everyone anx- iously awaited the next issue. And records were broken. The June issue of HEAR THIS was twenty pages and full of exciting features, such as the Famous Last Words column for the grad- uating seniors, and the year-end review. A lot of hard work made and dedication made HEAR THIS a frequent source of infor- mation and entertainment for all. 168 Curly, Larry, and Moe in the HEAR THIS office.

The Council was named the Francis Xavier Bevins Council in memory of the Catho- lic Chaplain's brother, who was an active Knight in his local Council and a Deacon. The change of splits required a strong membership drive to keep the active membership present. Our membership doubled by the end of the school year, and the participation in our motto - char- ity, unity, fraternity, and patriotism- was great. The membership helped out in charity events, in craft fairs, and with the handicapped. The fraternal aspects of membership were met at the degree cere- monies and in the North Shore Softball League. Our softball team had a weak start but had a lot of fun. Special thanks are extended to our Chap- lain, Father John Bevins, New York State Deputy Jack O'Grady, and District Dep- uty Jerome Garofalo, for all their guid- ance and support.

If you think that afternoons in the park are fun (and they are!), then you missed out on some good weekends this winter. Who else but Doug and his merry gang would spread the KPS insignia throughout Northern New England. What else is there to do during winter weekends at KP but to road trip to Mt. Pleasant, Maine and swish down the slopes with some good friends. I think that all of us now should open up a Bud and drink to Doug. See you all on the slopes!

Though the program has mum i - met with rttixed reviews, among the midshipmen, it offers an exciting alter- native to those midshipmen so Cadets spending a portion of their seayear with the Navy may end up on any of a broad spectrum of vessels. The duties and responsibilities vary from ship to ship This time with the Navy may be as_ boring or intensely exciting as the ca- det, ship, crew, andarea of movement make it- much like any other ship. The program of sailing with the Navy is still in fts infant stages at Oosma (USMMA) as Kings Pofnters iif prefer the Merchant MaTIhe. ( MIDSHIPS Back in the spring of 1987 several people answered a letter that was sent out by CDR Cohen in regards to the staff that would be needed to put together the 1988 copy of Midships. None of us really knew what we were getting ourselves into by volun- teering to work on the book. However we took a TM into the city for a yearbook convention and learned all about ways in which to put together a yearbook. The speakers at the conven- tion talked about a theme for a yearbook being important. Well, this book does not have a theme per se. Our school is quite unique so maybe we don't need one. Later in the fall of '87 Amy, Pete, John, Brian, and myself took a trip to the publishing plant to decide on a cover design and other techni- cal aspects of the book. As true Kings Pointers we waited untill the night before to do the work for almost every deadline. We would like to use this space to thank everyone who helped in the making of this book. Pete Waugh took on the task of putting the Senior Section together and he had help from several people in the layout of 213 pages. Amy Shames and John Bowerman also did superb jobs and Bernie McDonald came up with one of the best sections the faculty has ever seen, even if it was a couple of months late. We would most like to thank Carl Miller and CDR Cohen who kept on our backs to get everything done. Carl is also the best yearbook rep that there is. So to all of you, here is the book, hope you like what you see and hope you enjoy it.

Sports 181 WRESTLING The 1987-88 wrestling team had an- other successful season. The A- splits got things started with an impressive win at the Monarch In- vitational at Kings College. The team ran its record to 8 wins and 2 losses before Christmas break. Sea year then took five or six starters, leaving behind a slightly weakened line-up. After a win over division one Seton Hall, the season took a slide. This may have been due to a bad attitude or two. Anyhow, since it was a rebuilding year, there were no holdovers. A-splits who were lost to sea year include Shute Chisholm, Kabir Abdul Kalsi, Hefty Hernandes, Brainsurgeon Goetz, Yosemite Sam Bloodbath Lesky, and Grant I'm in love Gable. The superstar of the line-up, the legendary Jack Duck- butt Hanley was injured in a close match against Kean College. Returning from sea were Mean Dean Erck, Conrad I really care Harrell, Paul Teska, and the dualie freaks, Tim Young and Chris Biagi. Senior Tennessee Massey contrib- uted to the line-up as did Steve Martino, who was forced to retire after a serious injury. And who could forget Dombo, who never really did quit, did he? One wrestler, Brian Rhoades, on his quest for excellence, came a match short of nationals for the third and final season. Not bad for a person who has been said to have no self-discipline or leadership abilities according to some of his peers and members of the Com- mandants staff. USMMA OPPONENT 33 C.W.

After losing many outstanding players from last year, this year's team was young but promising. With a starting line up consisting of two 4 c, five 3 c, three 2 c and one l c, the team had quite a bit of forming to do. A great amount of help and leadership came from co-captains Bill McCarthy and Ed Kent, the Mariner's offensive threat. The 4 c starters Mike Martino and Andy Ackerman had an excellent first season. The defensive talents were divided between the 2 c and 3 c on the squad and consisted of keeper Gary Tyranski, and backfielders Dan- ny Forde, Andy Leoni, Mike Kerst and Tom Weisberg. The season had many ups and downs. A few unexpected losses started their 6-9-1 record, but a follow-up victory against Manhattanville College, a Di- vision 1 team, raised the team's spirit. Late in the season, the Mariners took to the pitch against Scranton Univer- sity, ranked 1 in the nation. With two starters injured, USMMA held them scoreless through 54 minutes of play until a chance goal ended the game. The team has high hopes for next sea- son. With 3 c starters Bill Ellis and John “Cowboy Orton returning and a reliable bench, the Mariners are the team to look for in the future. Cowboy hustling for posession.

KARATE The 1987-1988 karate season took off to a slow start by going over the basics with the incom- ing plebe class. During the first six months, the team participated in the West Point tournament. Out of 18 teams, we placed 3rd. At the end of the second quarter, Rich Za- harek -a black belt on the team- placed first in the Connecticut State Championship. In Febru- ary, there was an immense im- provement demonstrated by our 2nd place award at the U.S. Na- val Academy tournament. Our participation has increased, and we have begun a more in- tensive training program. The training consists of classes with Sensai Hill, former world cham- pion, and Sensai Freidman, coach of the national junior team. The ranking members of the team -Tony Clinch, Rich Za- harek, Brendan Clinch, and Eric Sangvic (team captain) also su- pervise the training. II 186 Sports Another point for Brendan Clinch.

Highlights of the season include the first weekend of the season. Here the Mariners won the Mariner Tip-off Tournament by first de- feating Mt. St. Vincent and then beating Vassar College in the championship game. John Doherty was named the tournament M.V.P. while Chuck Harris and John Hillin were included on the all- tournament team. The biggest win of the season came against St. Joseph of Maine. This came in the Mad Monk Tourna- ment at St. Joseph's. The Mariners took on St. Joe's, 66-0 on their home court nicknamed “Chamber Of Horrors , and defeated them. Big baskets by John Do- herty, Jim Trimble, and Kevin Ahern as- sured the victory. John Doherty was again named M.V.P. and John Hillin was chosen for the all-tournament team. Injuries hurt the mariners when starting center Chuck Sky Harris messed up his wrist at mid season. Pete Thurlow came on to provide tenacious defense against the opposing teams leading scor- ers, scoring a career high 15 points against Union College. Mitch Gillam netted 28 points in the same effort. Against Manhattanville Dave Morgan shot a perfect 6 for 6 from the field for 15 points and Shane Dowling scored 18. A special thanks is extended to senior guard Bill Paniszczyn, who has been a big supporter of the Mariner basketball team for the past four years. USMMA OPPONENT 99 Mt.

They only lost two seniors from the top five of last year but more than made up for the loss. The new additions to the top five were plebes Jim Wilburn and Jerry McVeigh and a surprise third classman, Greg Shean. Returning veterans from last year were (unde- feated) Pat O'Rourke and Don Wil- burn. The last returning member was senior Tom Trace. The season opened with a strong team showing at the Mariner 5K. Coach Omeltchenko's boys won the team standings and placed their top 5 all in the top 10 in the race. Tom Trace handed Kings Point and Doug Hanson a Kings Point vic- tory by winning the race. Several weeks later, the harriers of Kings Point opened their season by tak- ing 2nd at the Fairfield Invitational. The year carried on much in that fashion with the Mariners placing well in all of their meets through- out the season. The female harriers should not be neglected. This year Kings Point fielded its largest female team in yers. The number one female run- ner was Jennifer Beck with M. Smith, R. Costello and K. Krus in close pursuit. Coach Omeltchenko again proved that he can pull together a strong team from a group of loosely con- nected young men and deserves special credit for his outstanding dedication to the team and the Academy.

They use a .22 caliber rifle with sights and fire in 3 positions; standing kneel- ing and prone. There are various courses of fire; 1 4 course (3 targets), 1 2 (6 tar- gets) and full (12). The team finished in a respectable 5th place for the season which runs from Sept, to Feb. with tryouts in May and July. Lou Novak class of 88 was sighted as 10 shooter in the NROTC division out of approx. 100 competitors Next sea- son proves to be even more promising to take the lead position. The Rifle team competes against such schools as Penn St., MIT, Annapolis, West Point, St. John's, Sunny Maritime just to name a few. RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB=i Barry kicking off as the team moves in to defend. The KP Ruggers had another successful season this year with an overall record of 8-3 and a division record of 5-0. The season started off well with a victory against divi- sion A after union problems put the team in division C. They dominated with a strong scrum and quick backs to remain undefeated in their league and capture first place. The Ruggers with their strong finish, qualified for the National Tournament in New Orleans. With coach Riley's assistance and return- ing players, the team had their best season in four years and played old-time rugby by intimidating their opponents with aggressive play on the field and good clean fun off the field.

The fall season was finished with a solid district victory for both A and B divisions, winning at the War Memorial Regatta host- ed by Navy. The team placed a strong third at the Atlantic Coast Championships hosted by MIT the fol- lowing weekend. The fall was a building season to prepare for the Spring Nationals held at Stanford University. The fast paced spring season begins in February, tak- ing the team from Boston to Annapolis. Some high- lights are the Trux Umsted Regatta, the Boston Dingy Cup and the Admirals Cup held at KP. This years Intercolligiate Yacht Racing Association National Championships will be sailed in Flying Ju- niors. This two man boat is very different than our 420's. However, we have aquired three F.J.s and will spend all of May practicing to perfect handling and speed. With intense F.J. practice and the spring regatta sail- ing the dingy team is looking forward to an excellent showing at the '88 ICYRA championships. 196 Sports OFFSHORE SAILING TEAM The seasons offshore team showed excellent performances from all three boats. Kings Point sailed at least one boat in a major regatta every weekend of the fall and spring season. Connecticut Yankee, a Farr 37' sailed by Bill Carr and Kevin McCarthy, sailed to a first place finish in Manhassett Bay Race Week. Our Schock 41' Flamin', raced in the fall by skipper John Hanus and Scot Porter took a third place in the Larch- mont Yacht Club Intercolligate Series. Seventh Son, skippered by Ken Hidu with help from crew chief Steve Karas sailed well in the fall, racing to the best corrected time of the three KP boats entered in the Around Long Island Race. 198 Sports A.

Sports 201 MEN’S SWIMMING Unstable Start, Strong Finish The season started off well under Coach Sue Petersen with the team having each event covered with strength and depth. Then, Calculus and Physics took their toll, and the squad started to diminish in numbers. Only four plebes, Brett Sal- keld, Jim Penny, Jason Kaplow, and Jackie Miller, were able to compete the entire season, and they were a great asset to the team. The three returning seniors were the co-captains Jim Aird, Craig Parker, and Chris Phelan. Later to be joined by Eric Clark, Eric Preble, and Jim Reiter, the seniors were to lead the team to a 6-5 record. A stronger and more stabilized team came back from Christmas Break and a Florida trip to have some outstanding swims and upsets. Iron Men Matt Arcy, Rick Landsman, and Dean Steele swam every event in a meet against St. Francis College and were great morale boosters. Alumni showed their support at several meets as well. I 202 Sports On The Pool Or . . . V V s t 4 A season of strong swimming and a good taper produced excellent results at the Metropolitan Championships. Although not expected to be in the top six.

Af- ter an extremely dissapointing season last year, the KP icemen have come back str.ong in the '87 88 season with a 15-1-2 regular season mark. First place in the Hudson Division of the Metropolitan Collegiate Hockey Con- ference and a trip to the playoffs have been achieved without the superstars of the past but rather with balanced scoring, strong defense, great goal- tending and a sense of teamwork that has not been felt on the hockey team in at least four years. Kings Point has four of the top seven point leaders in the division and the top two goaltend- ers. Also the team has allowed the least goals of any team in the division and probably is the most physical team in the area. All these factors have contributed to one of the most suc- cessful seasons in any sport at Kings Point. There have been many high points in the season so far, and hopefully more to come in the playoffs. Fort Schuyler has gone down twice to KP by scores of 9-1 and 7-3, and were outplayed by the Mariners in all phases of the game. A 3-2 victory over Marist in Poughkeepsie in front of about 100 rabid KP fans who travelled over two hours to see the game was extremely satisfying. Kings Point also pulled out a big victory over the U.S. Naval Academy squad, 5-1. There are many more memorable victories, too many to mention here, however. Big seasons were had by Chuck Zach- rich. Bob Plansker, Kevin McCarthy and Chris DeFonce who were all in the top seven league scorers. Mike Christiansen, Todd Soper, Steve God- hino and Quoc Nguyn all were prime contributors to the team this year and were quite underrated. Bob Conley, Captain Chris King, Doug Rongo, Dave Balok (when not injured or out at sea) and Steve Godinho (when not at the forward position) all played steady defense and provided the spark for the team. Tom Olson and Danny O'Don- ell were superb in the nets this year and came up big in the pressure situa- tions. Veteran Mike Nowak and rook- ie players Ken Christiansen, Kevin Humphries, Troy Greco, Will Dobbs, Bill Blaine and Frank Reed all provid- ed depth. Mike Tomazic, Tad Cole, Jeff Klausner and Frank O'Donell did fine coaching jobs and helped make things run smoothly on and off the ice. Finally, the team's gratitude and thanks go out to all the fans who sup- ported us both at home and away, when we needed it the most. 204 Sports Security? Zac-Attack B.

Returning swimmers Lynette Leher, Mary Donna Calaba, Jen- ny Lehman, Rhonda Hart, Anne Marie Elder, and Mackey Wong made up most of the A-Split team. First-time swimmers Debbie Iwasaki and Nancy Regan did extremely well. Stacey Harris, recovering from a shoulder injury, swam when pos- sible and helped Coach Sue Petersen or- ganize the team's practices and T M's along with managers Rob Pento (A-Split) and Brian Hunt. When the Volleyball season ended, two more swimmers joined thte team, Sue Sealby and Karen Sercey, increasing the roster to fifteen. An unusually large plebe showing added to the team's high hopes. The women's team was boosted by diver Katrina Ha- selman who had a great season. Fresh- man swimmers Michelle Grace (swam 1st half), Krista Magnifico (swam 2nd half), Krystn McCarthy, and Kim Red- mann strengthened the team and proved to be the up and coming from whom the team will draw in the future to be- come even stronger. A preview to this is the breaking of two school records by Krystn, the 50 and 200 BR. The swim team's optimism resulted in a 5-2 record. Kings Point taking two 5th places in the early season Conference Relay Carnival and placing 4th in the Stony Brook Cup. The entire season ended 8-6 with three close scoring meets of within 4 points each. The women's team went on to Trenton State College for the Metropoli- tan Conference Championships in which the greatly reduced team (losing 7 to sea, 3 for other reasons) scored 218 points as compared to the 38 points scored last year. Personal bests were swum by all. Katrina placed 4th in the 1 meter dive competiton. Krystn took 8th- 200 BR, 8th-200 IM, 9th-100 BR, Kim took 2nd-1650 FR, llth-200 FR, 9th-500 FR, and Mackey took 10th-100 BR and 16th-200 BR. The 400 MED RELAY and 800 FR RELAY placed 8th. The 200 MED RELAY placed 7th. Support was received by our loyal fans Stu, Jeff, Jose, Lizzie, Admiral and Mrs. Krinsky, and our wonderful B-Split manager. Bob Allan. The new enthusi- asm is a testament to how much the pro- gram has grown in the last six years. Thank you Coaches Hazel and Harry Barr and, of course. Coach Sue Petersen. Sue, your unshakeable faith in us and ours in you is what makes Kings Point Swimming great! We love you Sue. M. Wong 1987-88 Women's Captain Swim Team I 206 Sports V L Sports 207 WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL Coached by Tom Harrigan, the team showed great promise in the '87 season. Returning players were Donna Poucel as captain, Connie Crawford, Martha Rodas and Karen Sercey, as well as Susan Sealby who returned after missing two seasons due to sea year. New members on the team were Lisa Lui, Tracey Twaddle, Jackie Twomey, Benita Sloan and Karla Hirdning. The season starteed slowly as the players developed their skills and learned to work with each other. The pivot point of the season came with the addition of Karla who fullfilled the role of the much needed setter. The team became much more competitive. Additional thanks must go to Mark Rich- ards and Marten Kegel. They alternately coached, managed, and practiced with the team. The “Hecklers must also be Thanked for their continuous and vocal encouragement. Top row: M. Rhodas, L. Lui, K. Hirdning, S. Sealby, C. Crawford, B. Sloan Lower row: D. Poucel, K. Sercey, T.

Next years team will suffer greatly with the loss of seniors Steve Frazier, Mike Cipolla, Mo Frakaloss, Ken Kromer, Ke- vin Long, and John McClain. With the loss of John McClain, next years team will be hard pressed for another leading scorer. The teams Defense will also be greatly reduced in their efficiency due to the loss of Goalie Frakaloss. Looking to next year, Carl Rasmussen, Matt Yaca- vone, and Phil Emmanuel will be reorga- nizing the Mariners with the guidance of coach Jim Godfrey.

Baseball team finished the 1988 season with a 10-9 record and 10-5 against division III teams. This was the first winning season since 1965. The team was under the leadership of co- captains John Ayres and Tim Olson. Un- like last year when the team lost seven games by two runs or less, this year the team won five close games. The team suffered two losses, one Dave Fontana due to illness, and the other Steve Smith to a shoulder separation. John Ayres was the MVP, playing both as shortstop and as a pitcher. Tom Tie- fenthaler was the teams All-Star player with a .415 batting average. The Rookie of the year was John Morganti with a .348 and great playing at first. Other out- standing players were Tom Woodstock, Craig Miller, and Tom Henriksen. During the next year the team will be in rebuilding stages only a few returning starters including Tom Broccoli and Rob McManus. 212 Sports t I I Sports 213 I. iH'r n I.-V ........ ..f . p... - Tranquility in the foreign seas -Pleasure sailing in its beginnings -Sailing at sunset -No Quarter in its prune Kings Point has also afforded us all a chance to enjoy the pleasures of the sea by providing the midshipmen with some of the finest waterfront equipment available. Every year, scores of midship- men are attracted to the academy's power squadron and sailing teams. However the midshipmen are not the only lucky recipients of the fortune in this case. The academy itself has been privileged to have some of the best student sailors in the country to bring our school a nationwide name in the art of sailing. The class of 1988 can proudly reflect on the apti- tudes of our number-one-in-the-nation sailing team under the dynamic leadership of our own classmates. 215 J TRACK 216 Sports toky brook - jgS CODKTST Sports 217 KINGS POINT AT ' : One of the most enjoyable and at the same time serious parts of our training at Kings Point, is the Fire Fighting School in Earl, New Jersey. This training takes place sometime prior to each persons first sea year. Everyone gets on a bus early in the morning while others are still sleeping, and they are on their way to the training. During the first part of the training, everyone is in a classroom going over the basic fire- fighting principles. Devices such as OBA's, foam applicators, and nozzles are examined and demonstrated. After the class room, comes the outside fun of actual fire - fighting begins. Dur- ing the day fires are put out in ships house structures. Engine Rooms, and in a tank filled with oil. The most impor- tant lesson that is learned, is the need for team work. ■ I 222 FIREFIGHTING SCHOOL 223 SPORTS i THE MIDSHIPMAN ATHLETE Sports 225 SPECIAL EVENTS -tttnm ■ffHIIIV YHITTM- •fflttttf' yjC£ M iLtftit i- M VPi'lllHIH'i JOJi '4URj J’PiVR.- .f. aMLfe -m .� . -.Ois miH j £T£l£Ii iwrr 'f r -J r J.J i The following section represents and de- picts the special events that happen at the Academy throughout the Year. These events let us all come together and get to know each other better. Some of these events are formal, some not so for- mal, and there are some that are not for- mal at all. These times also let us show ourselves to the world and give parents a chance to see us in action. It is many times something that seems not so spe- cial to us but to others and to ourselves later, the memories are a treasure. d RING DANCE Ring Dance is the first event in which the B-splits and the A-splits have a chance to get together after Plebe year. Ater the Midshipman and date pass through the ring, the date ceremoniously dips the ring in the water from the seven seas and places the ring on his finger. It is a great evening of eating, drinking, and dancing. As one of the most looked forward to events, everyone enjoys themselves, and everyone always enjoys meeting each others dates. This year the dance was successful and was held at the very plush Garden City Hotel Special Events 229 230 Special Events DAY Acceptance day is a big day for the plebes. Finally after two months of not being allowed off Campus they get their first liberty. The parade comes in the morning following a period of open house where parents and guests may come into the bar- racks to receive a glimpse of what Midshipman Life is like on the inside. This is the first day that the plebes see their parents after reporting to the Academy for indoctrination. Many go home and many go to the City, but at 2000 Sunday night it is back for accountability and back to the normal routine. Still however at least they have some new privileges which means a lot, especially after you've ate every mael looking at the top of your plate. Special Events 231 BOARDS -------- i ( DAY In order to raise money for MDA, every year the MDA club sponsors an auction of all of the officers boards to the plebes. For one day the plebe who buys an offi- cers boards gets to trade places with that officer. The seniors must assume the cleaning stations and act just as a good plebe would act. The plebes who have the regimental offi- cers boards form up in the wedge on the square at lunch muster and sit at the Reg table at the meals. After the meals the seniors also have the chance to enjoy go- ing through a gauntlet once again dur- ing their years at the Academy. It is a fun filled day with lots of mishaps and fol- lies, and it gives us a chance to raise a lot of money for a good cause. The Muscular Dystrophy Association.

CHRISTMAS DINNERS Everyone knows first rotation is rapidly coming to a close with the celebration of the annual Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. Prior to the regiment's departure for Thanksgiving Leave they are gath- ered along with the administration and faculty for the traditional roast turkey feast, complete with all the fixings. After the meal the regiment and guests were invited to the Mariners Memeorial Cha- pel for an All-Faiths Thanksgiving service. Just a couple of weeks later Delano Hall is again festively decorated for the Christmas Meal. The regiment and guests in Service Dress Blues were served the prime rib dinner by the smartly dressed white shirt plebes. When the meal was over the smoking lamp was lit. As Delano filled up with cigar smoke midshipmen guests contin- ued their conversations. All Faiths Holi- day service was held in the Mariner Me- morial Chapel following the meals The service offers everyone a chance to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas during the busy weeks as the quarter comes to an end. r Special Events 237 CHRISTMAS 238 Special Events Greg in a tender moment. Dan's having a blast. BALL Johnny Wolfe with his date. O'Hara Hall was decorated spectac- ularly on December 5, 1987 as it was changed from gymnasium to an elegant ballroom for the annual Christmas Ball. The decoration committee and plebe workers transformed the whole building into a small town for An Old Fashioned Christmas. Excited couples began arriving at the start and went through the re- ceiving line on their way to the dance floor. Each couple brought a small gift for a needy child that was placed under the Christmas tree. The rest of the evening was spent dancing or talking to friends at the tables. SANTA meets Madonna Special Events 239 The mixers are for everyone at the Acad- emy. At these functions everyone meets their dream girl. At least they think they have. The mixers are a chance to meet people from outside the Academy and usually there is some good entertain- ment such as a live band. The two RPO's did a fine job organizing mixers this year and they were all a success. There is always a lot of dancing at the mixers once everyone decides to go out and dance. Soon everyone is having a great time. Everyone must keep in mind that even mixers have rules, but that nev- er seems to be a problem, after all we are Midshipmen. MIXERS 240 Special Events MARDI GRAS One hundred Nights; the celebration that marks the point in the year when there are only a hundred nights left for the Seniors until graduation morning. This years event was held at the Polish- American Hall in Port Washington. The band was great and the beer was flowing rapidly out of the kegs. This was our only class party to be held in semi-formal attire. Though some had objections to this at first, along with the location, everything came together for a great party. The party had it all: food, dancing, a band, and liquid refreshment. When the party was over the Kings Pointers were not, so they took the party to such places as Logans. Special Thanks goes out to John Mahon, Mike Nowak, and Sue Ziegler for ar- ranging the party and getting the band. 247 Clockwise from below; No. 2 peers from be- hind No. 1 ; 1988's graduating class marches on with a greeting ; Some of our instructors ; Marching from Truxton Arcade to the field ; John Bowerman and a slightly crippled Karen Benham. It was a beautiful day as the Class of 1988 marched onto the field for their very last formation. Commencement had finally come and the long haul had come to an end. Sitting in the crowd of seniors was a blinding experience as the sun shone on the white uniforms. Everyone sat down and listened to the words spo- ken by the Chaplains. Some dozed after a long week filled with activities but then ADM William J. Crowe , the speak- er and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, started his speech. Something was odd. The speech was good. Everyone listened intently as he told jokes and told a story and gave the graduating class words of wisdom. This was a surprise to everyone. Then John Mahon gave his speach as class president, which was also put together quite well and finally Zak got up and accepted his pennies as An- chor Man and gave his own speech (without a pony). The ceremony was the best for The USMMA in many years. 1 . . . And Finally The End Had Come. 254 Special Events After Zak's speech, three cheers were given for those we left behind, and then three cheers for those who were about to leave and the hats were thrown into the air. The Class of 1988 were now alumni. Following this, the Seniors spent their time congratulating each other, cheering, hugging, and finding their loved ones in the crowd. The time had come to pick up their remaining possesions and depart the Academy. Sure Wiley had made sure that it would not be too easy to leave. Everyone had to pick up documents, turn in linen, and be checked out by their respective CO'S. However it was a short time before the Seniors were gone. The Campus was filled with people cele- brating and packing and loading cars that had been held together in hopes that they would make one final trip home. To some who did not attend the Acade- my it seemed a sad sort of ending after spending four years together, but in truth it was not. It was not that the class rode off into the sunset never to see each other again, but more as seeds sent across the world to flourish. Kings Pointers always have a way of finding one another again, be it at home- coming or in a far away place. It is even possible that we may see each other while walking down a street in Livoro, Italy and stop at a corner cafe' to have a few drinks.

Just be- fore the school year began, the Na- tion watched a week of the hearings on their televisions at home as Oli- ver North, a Marine Lieut. Col. told the Congressional Iran-Contra In- quiry that his secret White house operations were conducted only to obey higher officials. He testified that he assumed but did not know first hand that President Reagan knew and approved of the diver- sion of arms sale profits to aid the Nicaraguan Rebels in Central America. It was reported that late C.I.A. head William Casey sought to use arms sale profits to set up a secret extra-official espionage agency. By the end of classes the whole story was still unknown to the public and is doubtful if any of the public will know the details.

The immuni- ty-robbing disease has killed nearly 25,000 people and there is still no cure. Millions have been poured into research. President Reagan proclaimed it Public Health Ene- my No. 1 , and still people are far from safe from the disease. The Senate rejected Reagan's nomination of Robert H. Bork to the Supreme Court. On Monday October 19th the Dow Jones in- dustrial stock average dropped by 508 points, the largest in history. It came to be known as Black Monday. The Golden Gate Bridge celebrated it's 50th birthday. Abouut 250,000 people jammed onto the brige and another half million at the approaches because engineers feared the span would not hold the weight. The Spring was also a bad time for New York City bridges due to cracks in the Williams- burgh Bridge, and possible structural dam- age in the Brooklyn Bridge. Year In Review 263 1987 MARITIME NEWS EVENTS The past year has been a busy time in the Persian Gulf for the U.S. Navy which was sent there after attacks on civilian ships increased. Iran and Iraq had attacked 178 ves- sels in 1987 resulting in a death toll of 108 merchant seamen. In September the U.S. Navy blew up an Iranian ship that was caught laying mines in the gulf. Several mines were confiscated. Later in April, American forces blew up two oil rigs and sank another gunboat in retaliation for the mining that was successful on a tanker. The at- tack resulted in the loss of one U.S. helicopter. One of our own instructors, Cap- tain Hard, thought for a while that he would be going to the Gulf to act as an advisor. As the year comes to an end there is still no end in sight for the troubles in the Persian Gulf. 264 Year In Review 1988 The infamous West Islip barge made its world tour. The Barge filled with 3,128 tons of garbage, became a joke as well as a sym- bol of the problems in America with solid waste disposal. The barge was banned by six states and three foreign countries while it made it's seach for a place to dump it's cargo. Finally it returned to New York to have the garbage reduced to ash in an incinerator. In the photo to the left is one of the ships that U.S. Lines had built to use in it's round the World service. The company then went into bankruptcy, and most of these ships still lay tied up in New York Harbor, too big for anyone to want to buy them. Year In Review 265 1987 KINGS POINT NEWS EVENTS The 1987-88 Academic year was an event filled year with potatoes thrown at Football games and also out of hand restriction musters for the first classmen There was a small food fight this year which happened when the lights went out in the messhall, but it was almost insignificant com- pared to past years. In April the Deckies were decimat- ed in the License exams when the Coast Guard changed the format of the tests. Almost no one passed the Navigation Problems portion. Also the Engineers got a suprise on Fri- day morning when the Turbines pony did not hit. There were several changes for the Seniors, for the first time they had to stand outside their room for a Formal Inspection, and in the Spring they marched on the Oval instead of standing in front of their company during Colors. 266 Year In Review T� T 1988 I In the Summer of 1987, Rear Admiral Paul Krinsky took over as Superinten- dent of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. There were changes from the Old Superintendent, some were popular and some were not. One of the new policies was that of sitting with the regiment at different tables during meals. This year marked a strong return of the school newspaper Hear This , due especially to the efforts of Randy Disharoon. The paper was met with mixed re- views. Some thought it was a great paper and some thought it a great ex- ample of yellow jounalism. A new security system of cameras was installed on the campus, Lt. Crook was promoted to a Federal Marshal, The campus bought a Police car, and the Security guard house was renovat- ed to handle the camera monitors. Did it help? It remains to be seen. The MOD office was also moved to the gate house. 1987 SPORTS NEWS EVENTS AP TOP SPORTS STORIES NFL Strike Americas cup Bo Jackson Sugar Ray Leonard Al Campanis Paul Molitor World Series Earle Bruce Ben Johnson Mike Tyson Lakers-Celtics Bob Knight 3-Point goal Baseball Collusion Dwight Gooden Edwin Moses Eric Dickerson Super Bowl Steffi Graf David Robinson 268 Year In Review 1988 The top sports story of the year was the 24-day NFL players strike. The strike which ended in mid-October was resolved when the union capitu- lated and went to court instead of try- ing to fight the club owners at the bargaining table. Some clubs who at the beginning of the strike were low in the standings, benefited from the performance of the Scab Players, when the games were held to stay on the scorebooks. John Elway, quarter- backed the Denver Broncos to the best record in the AFC. He was named the NFL's most valuable player for the season. The Broncos earned a 10-4-1 record for the 1987 strike torn season. Kirbey Pucket and Jeff Raerdon of the Minnesota Twins, shown above, are celebrating the Twins victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Ser Series. The Twins won the Series in the seventh game by a score of 4-2. The Mets did not do as well as their fans had hoped, but at the close of the school year they were leading their division. Dennis Conner, the man who lost the America's Cup in 1983, won it back in 1987. The Stars and Stripes defeated Australia's Kookaburra III by a 4-0 sweep in Australia. Year In Review 269 Other top stories included such names as Bo Jackson, former Auburn running back, who played both major league Baseball and major league Football this year. Mike Tyson also got his fair share of the press coverage with his high payments for stepping into the ring and his undefeated record. The top sports story at Kings Point was the great sucess of the Hockey team. They were undefeated in the regular season. The turn-out for the games was fantastic, however they lost in the first round of the playoffs. Good Luck next year. 270 Year In Review NATIONAL 1988 : SCANDALS On Feb. 3, the National Religous Broadcasters voted to make compli- ance with a new code of ethics a requirement for membership. The action taken was in the wake of the financial and sex scandal un- covered in Jim Bakkers PTL Ministry. Democratic presidential candidate Gary Hart was forced to drop his bid for presidency after it reported that he was romantically involved with Donna Rice, a 29 year old as- piring actress from Miami. Donald Regan also came out with a book in the Spring saying that Rea- gan was not in charge because he didn't make firm decisions and that Nancy Reagan consulted her as- trologer in making the president's schedule. Year In Review 271 1987 ENTERTAINMENT NEWS 1987 was the year of the cat in the Chinese year and 1988 is the year of the dragon, but both belong to Rock group U2 who was number 1 in record sales, concerts, and radio play. Miss Michigan, Kaye Lani Rae Rafko, was crowned Miss America after she dominated the competi- tion with a Polynesian dance. Time selected Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev as its man of the year in 1987.

Miss America 1988, and the Fat Boys, a rap music group consisting of Mark Morales, Damon Wimbley, and Darren Robinson. 272 Year In Review 1988 This year marked the year that Ma- donna went to Japan where she was an even bigger hit than in the U.S. and one of the hottest new shows, strangely enough was about a furry Alien Life Form called Alf. The year also° marked the death of actor Jackie Gleason of the televi- sion series The Honeymooners . Also the showman and pianist, Li- berace, died at his home at the age of 67. Note; The anniversary of the class of 1988's graduation can easily be remembered because June 20th is also West Virginia Day. Year In Review 273 ■■ Representative Thomas J.

'A tradition since 1875’ V £ V District No. 1 MEBA NMU of the National Marine Engineers’ Beneficial Association (AFL-CIO) America is beginning to realize that its military readiness around the globe depends not just on the regular armed forces, but also on the strength of the United States-flag merchant fleet. After all, without a healthy and active commercial fleet to support U.S. troops during wars or other conflicts, America’s military operations overseas would be left high and dry. And ever since the early days of the republic, generations of brave and patriotic Americans have valiantly supported their country in wartime by sailing with the merchant marine. Today, the licensed and unlicensed members of District No. 1-MEBA NMU carry on that proud tradition as partners with the industry in making the United States merchant marine strong during peacetime. As the most valued members of the U.S.-flag commercial and government fleets, they are an elite corps of highly skilled merchant seamen who have proven time and time again the meaning of the words expertise, dependability and pride. It’s a tradition that’s been handed down since the founding of the National MEBA in 1875. Photo: Marine Reliance.
