While your tests here were many, your leadership and commitment endured as you completed the journey at Kings Point This issue of Midships will serve as your log of the important events associated with your final year at the Academy, and as your link to the shipmates you will remember and hold close for the entirety of your life. I am proud of you. The entire Academy community of family, friends, faculty, staff and alumni are proud of you. As you depart Kings Point to join the fleet, you embark on your next journey, and I know you are well prepared for anything that comes your way. Good luck and Godspeed. Acta Non Verba! lack J.

Maritime Administrator To the Great Class of 2021, Congratulation and WELL DONE upon completing your Kings Point voyage and embarking on your life's adventure; I could not be more proud of your accomplishments these past four years under often challenging circumstances. A great preparation for life, my young Mariners! Four years ago, we both arrived at Kings Point; you as Plebe Candidates, and me as the newly appointed Maritime Administrator. We all had much to learn, and much to accomplish. As I told you then, my Number 1 priority as Administrator was to get Kings Point back on an even keel and making headway again - but I needed your help and buy in to do so. Little did you know what a huge role you would play in the next four years to make that so. And so you have. You, the Class of 2021 walk out Vickery Gate leaving behind an Academy far stronger, more cohesive, and producing better leaders and mariners than at any time in its history. You helped to commemorate our Academy's 75,B anniversary by validating and embracing our proud heritage, and honoring the sacrifices of all those who have gone before you - most notably the 142. But your most noteworthy achievement will be your Class' leadership and resilience in the face of the Global pandemic which impacted nearly two years of your Academy studies. You met daunting challenges head on, and working with VADM Buono and his staff, always found a way to maintain course and speed all the way to your graduation day. As it is said: calm waters do not a competent mariner make. I salute you! I am proud to now call you fellow Alumni, and look forward to seeing you on the waterfront. Sail safe my new Shipmates!

Within liis first month of bOing inaugurated,lie visited King Point, ' addressing the midshipmen body in Ackerman Tiall. He is still held in high regard, and known for his three priorities, stating that day that “In accomplishing our mission we must put our people first. I expect everybody to be a professional, and I expect everybody to be a good shipmate.” Regimental Commanders M N CAPT Kyle Buser M N CAPT Landon Norvill Serving is 1st rotation and 2nd rotation Regimenal Commanders, Kyle Buser and Landon Norville led the Regiment through one of the toughest years that USMMA has recently seen. Their efforts have positively impacted not only the Midshipmen, but also the staff and parent?. These two Midshipmen actively live the Academy moto of “Acta Non Verba”. Congratulations on having crossed the finish line! We have overcome much adversity these past four years (five for some), and have become more resilient as a result. Our final year was the most challenging of them all, and certainly one of the most unique Senior years in the history of this institution. All of the challenges we faced, we overcame together, hi the process, we made memories we will never forget, and forged bonds which will last a lifetime. Nothing about our Kings Point experience was typical of a normal college education, and just like you, we would not have wanted it to be any other way. Going forward, there truly is nothing we cannot do, and no challenge we cannot overcome. We leave Kings Point with a world of opportunity at our fingertips. The Academy has helped lay a foundation of professional expertise, self-discipline, resiliency, and personal skills which will enable us to be successful in our professional careers. As we part ways and embark on new adventures, cc work hard, remain humble, and remember to enjoy the journey. We will see you out there!

The awful spirits of the deep Hold their communion there; And there are those for whom we weep, The young, the bright, the fair. Calmly the wearied seamen rest Beneath their own blue sea. The ocean solitudes are blest, For there is purity. The earth has guilt, the earth has care, Unquiet are its graves; But peaceful sleep is ever there, Beneath the dark blue waves. i Table of Contents Faculty and Staff 10 Regimental and Company Photos 18 Story of the Class of 2021 26 Midshipman Life 40 Athletics 52 Clubs Organizations 76 Underclass Portraits 94 Senior Profiles 116 Faculty Staff Si Office of the Superintendent VADM Joachim Buono RDML Susan Dunlap Veronica Barry Kelly Butruch Tim Flaherty Cynthia Flynn George Rhynedance Lisa Ross Sophia Soler Commandant’s Office CAPT Mikel E.

Dear Class of 2021, These four years have been some of the most rewarding, though tasking, times of our lives. Our experiences at the Academy and at sea have formed us into new men and women - patriots who will be doing great things for our country. Let us not forget the time at the Academy, nor our fellow midshipman that we have lost along the way. These times have come to a close, but they will continue to be ever-present in our memories and stories. The Class of 2021 Board would like to thank everyone for letting us serve you in all our endeavors. Remember nothing is beyond your reach as long as you're willing to work for it. Acta Non Verba. Most sincerely, 2021 Board Kyle Pins, President John Cairns, Vice-President Dawson Hicks, Treasurer Jennifer Stelnicki, Secretary Everyone; win ai football i they win by a lot! Plebe Year We first set foot on the ground we would call home for the next (hopefully) 4 years on June 27th, 2017. We went through three weeks of INDOC. where we shaved our heads, squared our comers, and learned what it meant to be a plebe. Snap pops and zealous greetings filled the air around campus as we shuffled to and from classes with backpacks in hand. Every Sunday at the PKT we got to hear suggestions on we could improve, and respectful disagreements with our actions thus far. all while testing our knowledge. In the Academic buildings we learned bow from stem and how engines work, the basics upon which we would build our future careers. Calculus. Physics, and Chemistry picked off a fair few of our brothers and sisters. And of course, who could forget the sexy pics we got in our fire gear over in New Jersey? On Parent's Day weekend we got to see our families again and show them around campus, impressing them with how much we had changed. Once finally granted liberty we got to explore the Big Apple and all she had to offer, with Rose's Pizza in Penn Station quickly becoming a staple of our diets. Back on campus, the quest towards Recognition raged on with everything from chalking up the campus to decorating the Grinder with boats from the pier. Tragically, our shark was brutally murdered when CDR McCarthy and Lt Jaeger kicked it off the roof. All is not lost though, as they live on today within our class seal. A blizzard struck campus and the Noro virus ravaged our ranks in the midst of the Dark Ages, with the Winter Ball providing a nice distraction. Finally, it was time to get back to the grind, as we churned through recognition steps in an attempt to finally free ourselves. On April 7th. 2018 we were Recognized, racing up and down the museum hill and wrestling our training staff in the mud pit. Finally, the year concluded with our class being split, with half destined for sea while the other stayed on campus for another trimester. plebc year, we decorated the grinder with cars, ar jrely some sweat. Our first spirit mission, depictec ons featured decorating the campus. In accordant flags up the pole and did hors, tables, boats, golf carts, flaming arrows, printers, tbove, shows the origins of our mischief. Not all of our with our recognition steps, we also hoisted all 50 state i beach clean-up! After seeing the loss of MIDN Foster as RTOA. and being fooled by Chad a couple of times, we were duped a Final time at the Regimental Drill Competition . We endured log PT, hill climbs, and pulling a fire truck, but we emerged successfully as muddy and tired as 4 C. Third Class Year 3rd class year saw the onboarding of Superintendent Buono and the departure of Crystal Enterprises from Delano. Though we may have lost the treasured Stromboli and brunches, our wound was eased by the singing of the wonderful Mitch Glazer during the holiday dinner. We enjoyed our first year on campus with real rates, mentoring the plebes and trying to get away with transiting when we could. For the B-splitters, the trimester on campus was but a brief break before heading back out to sea, spending Christmas at home while also learning during the dreaded Dark Ages. For the A-splitters, holidays away from home were tempered by the experiences at sea and the lack of a winter at all depending on the region of the world. The end of the year saw our trial period’s end, with us committing to a KP education and by extension a life as a mariner or active duty. SOLAS training was a critical part of te lab time for the A-splitters. We learned how to launch and drive lifeboats, how to command monomeys, and how to launch and recover rescue boats. Hopefully we never have to use any of the training! Left: Nick Markle and Vincent Jenkins pose while on a safari. Right: Zane Amundsen visits the tallest building in the world, the Burj Hhalifa.

First Sailing Our 3rd class year saw the first time that we went out to sea. After boarding our ships with wide eyes and gaping mouths, we quickly adjusted to this new environment, learning what it meant to be part of the crew. As our technical knowledge as mates and engineers grew, so did our confidence. For many, this was the first time seeing another country. Our class was truly sent all across the world, and we experienced many different cultures ashore. We were tested not only in our capabilities as a cadet, but also as a student as we completed our sea projects. Many hours were spent reading manuals, picking the brains of our superiors, and tracing ship systems. Some of us were truly tested in our abilities to work well under pressure as we sprinted to project completion, with many a sleepless night had as the deadline approached. Unfortunately, some of our shipmates didn’t pass this test and were lost (though luckily before commitment). Josh Agosto looks out over the African safari while thinking about sea projects.

Second Class Year (II Enjoying our newfound lib rates, Benny’s swelled with our ranks each weekend as we escaped campus. Classes grew Ignore challenging and focused on our major, with the prerequisites of plebe year thankfully behind us. Things were set to be ft. nore of the same, as we were now more experienced in the ways of Kings Point. We were ready to assume greater roles of R leadership. But everything changed when the Corona attacked. After going home for Winter Break, an email came out e xplaining the new virus sweeping the world, and that a two-week delay would be instituted. This quickly turned more than R an entire trimester at home, as the technological age allowed for the wonders of ZOOM classes. As we learned from our fthiomes, bad internet connections and microphones accidentally left on added to the experience of toilet paper shortages and the stock market crash. By INDOC for 2024 though, we were ready to come back to campus in person. H Second Sailing Now fully committed to KP as 2nd classmen, we again went out to sea to experience the world. Now with more experience, we learned the more advanced techniques of our professions. By the end of our journey, we stood ready to assume the mantle of 3rd mate or engineer. As we gained more responsibility, chipping paint gave way to assuming the conn and taking celestial fixes. Many of us sailed MSC and experienced the wonders of an UNREP in person, while others went through the Panama and Suez Canals. or the A-splitters, our sailing ended on a hectic note as the COVID-19 pandemic struck the world. We got a 1.25x day multiplier from the Coast Guard to help achieve sea days, with many of our friends spending ...eir days aboard the good of T V Kings Pointer. On the j other end of the spectrum, the ATRs scrambled to find lights home through countries that still allowed travel to the US, with restricted liberty and gangway up orders becoming the norm. SFirst Class Year . ' After three years of highs and lows, we had finally made it to our senior year. INDOC, both sailings, and all of the sea projects were behind us. Now it was time to assume positions of responsibility throughout the Regiment and enjoy the perks of our efforts. We could transit, close our doors, and go on liberty (sike) as we made our way through the final stretch at school and prepared to face license. First trimester we enjoyed our lives in the bubble, unmasked among our classmates and generally unaffected by the outside world’s problems. Unfortunately, this came at the cost of not being able to leave, with concerts on Barney Square attempting to compensate. We enjoyed our Ring Dipping Ceremony on campus, knocking them on the tables and railings around campus with pride. Meals transformed from lunches enjoyed with the Regiment to affairs spent watching shows with classmates in our rooms. As we entered 2nd trimester we were assaulted with tons of snow and increasing days off school, as snowball fights and sledding took place across campus. I ■m After spending almost two months at home over the holidays, we returned to campus for a half-year grind to the finish. Now we entered the period of masking, social distancing, occasional liberty, and lockdowns. Even as some of us spent an entire month J 11 in isolation from PUI status and the regiment wide lockdown, we . I stayed strong and continued towards our goal. Limping past the : ( finals week of 2nd trimester, we stood strong in the face of ] I. License Seminar and preparations for our License Examinations. I ,; We networked our way to jobs and a future beyond Vickery Gate, -1 ,■ and enjoyed our final days with our classmates as best we could. ,) Ultimately, we made it through the gauntlet that is USMMA with Hi a diploma, commission, and license in hand, and stood all the ■ stronger for it. Going forth, we shall remember all the lessons learned here. Acta Non Verba and Kappa Pi Sigma. MIDSHIPMAN LIFE Midshipmen at the US Merchant Marine Academy have interesting lives. Though the public may be exposed to our polished image, we as Midshipmen know that there are many things that the public does not get to see! These things, for better or worse, include our private lives as students at the nation's “best kept secret”. Chow Call It's no secret that Delano Hall has put out some exciting meals during the tenure of the Class of 2021. We have had the honor of seeing classics like pep-stromboli, soup with bread rolls, and the coveted Z burgers come and go. However, we have also braved our fair share of tex-mex, stromboli, blue rare steak, undercooked chicken, and harassing managers. We’re glad to be leaving the school in the good hands of Mr. Frank, Mr. Gla .er, and the current food service provider! Last Call Of all the recreational activities that can be found at Kings Point, none has so wide of an endorsement by the Midshipmen as an ice-cold beer. A weekly event in Land Hall, the Midshipman Pub is entirely operated by students. The Pub Masters for the 2020 - 2021 school year were Joe Clark, Chaz Franchina, Kyle Buser, Jack Mccann, and Kyle Pins. Cheers to the class of 2021. The pub this year had a number of morale-boosting events for the First Class. Presidential debates, white lie t-shirts, pong, DJ’s, and a nic-bar could have been seen throughout the year. It should be noted that Luke Johnson won the “Edward 40 hands” contest. COVID-19 at KP COVID-19 hit the world like a train in the early months of 2020. The virus is thought to have originated in Wuhan, ;■ China. Starting there, the virus then spread worldwide. Although having an objectively low mortality rate for ; individuals in good health, the virus demonstrated to be of larger consequence for the elderly and immunocompromised. The virus arrived in the United States shortly before the Midshipmen left on winter break in the year 2019. Spreading quickly, the Academy leadership found it to be in the best interest of KP to have online classes for the third trimester of AY 2019-2020. After the trimester of online classes, the Kings Point allowed their Midshipmen to return. Once back on campus, the Midshipmen went through quite a year. The class of 2024 reported for their indoctrination in early July 2020. The class had to go through indoc using social distancing and mask policies - though this was only after they went through an isolation and testing period. The indoc period was a success in large part due to the leadership of the Class.of 2021- Due to being back on campus, many were happy and ready to perform. Many at KP hold that a positive outcome of the pandemic is the extra training time that the Class Of 2024 has received. They have grown well as a class overall. The Class of 2021 decided, by I vote, to forgo liberty for T1 of AY 2020-2021 in order to avoid having to wear masks I and social distance. Since the I Midshipmen were confined to campus, this created a I “bubble” of sorts.1 This | provided security against the I virus outside of KP. | Being on campus exclusively, the Midshipmen quickly became restless. Many activities were introduced by the Regimental leadership, the Alumni Foundation, and the i Parent's Association. The : USMMA AAP' sponsored weekly concert series for the Midshipmen. The National Parent’s Association also sponsored a number of events during the fall. Their focus was providing food and music at the waterfront while Midshipmen were able to recreate in the vicinity. As the year went on, there continued to be a number of events canceled ■: due to the virus. Many at the Academy are looking forward to the day - where COVID-19 is no longer a concern. At the same time, there is 1 uncertainty as to when this will happen. We are confident in our f f‘ regimental and academy leadership to lead us out of this altered state of operation once the opportunity presents itself. | Upon return to the Academy in 2021 after winter break, the school was inclined to provide the Midshipman with opportunities to go on liberty. Given the cold weather, outdoor recreational activities were no longer feasible, and a lack of liberty took a recognizable toll on Midshipman morale in the fall. : With the new liberty policy in place, Midshipmen were required to wear masks at all times. The implementation of masks was not only during ‘ normal activities, but athletes and Midshipmen on liberty were required to also wear them. Other generous examples of sponsored activities are the numerous catered dinners provided by the Alumni Foundation. The Midshipmen, by class, were able to enjoy both Chick-Fil-A and Mexican cuisine through the generosity of the AAF. These dinners were a welcomed change to the diet of the regiment. Due to being confined to campus, their typical meals consisted exclusively of Delano Hall. The Academy also worked to improve the outdoor recreational amenities of the campus. These improvements consisted of the installment of a new fire pit, the purchase of new patio furniture, and the purchase of many picnic tables and lawn chairs.

Joseph Clark III Ryan Haines “My time here playing at USMMA was cut short in many ways, but I wouldn’t have traded it for the world. When this program was at its lowest, CDR McCarthy and LT Sprouse stepped up and helped us continue the legacy of Kings Point Soccer. They filled our team with a lot of laughs and turned our program into a family. While we only had a short season with Coach Gwyther, he was a fantastic addition to our program and I am excited to see what this team will do in the future. I would not be here today without the support of my teammates and coaches here at KP.” “Just put it on the card” -Entire Men's Soccer Team Zach Lysakowski “Great moments are born from great opportunities...” Season Recap: In front of a great, loud crowd of Midshipmen at Brooks Stadium, the USMMA men’s soccer team played Division I opponent Army West Point to a physical 1-0 defeat in the first of the two academies' home-and-home exhibitions. Sophomore Chase Miller got the start in net and made six saves in one half of action. Freshmen Ashton Carey and Carson Bushnell split the second half, with Carey making three saves and Bushnell turning aside two Army shots. The USMMA men’s soccer team also lost on the road at arch-rival Coast Guard, 2-0, at the Bears’ Nitchman Field. Way to put in the work this season Mariners!

Our ability to continually overcome tire challenges we have faced through indoctrination, plebe year and ultimately our recognition, despite COVID, will be what begins shaping us into the leaders that our instimtion is renowned for forging. To focus on the oppornmities we missed throughout our first year, however unfortunate, would be a mistake. Our victories have far outweighed our losses, and throughout the most difficult moments we displayed resolve. Even in the midst of the chaos and moments of our plebe year, we proved to rejoice in adversity. “Brave men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war. -Lucius Seneca. We would be remiss to forego acknowledging our training staff, cadre, and all of the first classmen who were leaders for our class. Their constant efforts to better themselves and the people around them continue to serve as motivation for us to be better. Tire sacrifices you made and the poise with which you handled this difficult year did not go unnoticed. The class of 2024 salutes you for your efforts. We look forward to seeing your luture accomplishments as young officers and beyond. Suffice to say we are proud to be members of the class of 2024. Moments our class did share together such as our first liberty, numerous spirit missions, the Coast Guard Gaines, intramurals, and even less enjoyable experiences such as PKTs and countless musters will remain highlights of our careers at the academy and beyond. We look forward to seeing where our class will go, the relationships we will establish, the bonds we strengthen, and the experiences we are privileged to share as we continue to traverse the waters of Kings Point.

been three years since we walked through Vickery Gate, and I can surely say the strong and resilient have made it this far. It is special to see us grow into the unique individuals we are that make up the 2022 family. Plebe year we were all together and it was filled with hilarious and memorable moments from controversial spirit missions involving Delano drawings, to going down in KP history only two weeks after indoc. We then split up and went out to sea and made lifetime memories, and experienced things others may never dream of. Now we are going into our senior year reunited as one class ready to be the leaders of this fine establishment. 1 am grateful that I was elected B split class president because it challenged me and gave me the opportunity to have interactions with many peers in my class. We saw humor through the rough times and were able to find joy in the little things. What has made us special in these last three years is that when something didn’t go our way, we didn’t fold! My class did not wither went it got rough which is the trait I admire most about us. Our class motto is “God helping, nothing should be feared”, and we embodied that statement. I write this letter excited to go into my senior year side by side with people who I see as my brothers and sisters. I believe we can all make a positive impact on the culture of this school, the maritime industry, and the military. We made it this far, now let’s finish strong. Forward unto Dawn.

The team's goal this year was to bring back a few traditions which had been forgotten in recent years. The Logbook of the Graduating Class theme was the original intent behind the very first copies of Midships , thus this was the predominant theme throughout this year's book. This book, we hope, has conveyed the Story of the Class of 2021 . It is my personal hope that future classes choose to continue this theme to have their own story told. Due to various COVID-19 restrictions, there were many problems met in the design and production of this year's edition of Midships . Nevertheless, the team behind this book tackled every challenge thrown at them with vigor and enthusiasm; I cannot thank them enough for their efforts. These people include; • Nick Markle. Assistant Editor • Clarice Adams, Senior Section 1 e,. .' . • Hailey Hicks. Sports Section Team i • Karan Drichuys. Faculty Staff i -• ‘ - • Maohai Du. Team member • Caleb Hancock, Team member • Sean Olingcr, Team member • Luke Musto, Team member • Alana Schaak, Team member • Elizabeth Kay, Photographer I would also like to specially thank Mrs. Lisa Donitz from the Alumni Foundation for her assistance... without her, parts of this book would no have been possible. Additionally, I'd like to thank Nick Valentine for allowing the use of his beautiful photography within this book - it can be found on the first and final pages of this edition. Finally, I'd like to thank Mr. Mark Mandrakos from HerfT Jones, the publishing company, for his guidance in completing the book. To the great Class of 2021,1 wish all of you the best. I already can't wait to see all of you again in the future to hear of the things that you’ve accomplished. Until then, keep the Kings Point Spirit within you -1 am sure that it will guide our class to achieve many great things.
