executive Capt. A. M. Shinn Until Second Class year, the average mid- shipman ' s contacts with the Executive Depart- ment have been largely confined to the United States Naval Academy Regulations and the en- forcement thereof. In Second Class year, how- ever, the midshipman is introduced to the aca- demic level of the Department, where what has been formerly taught to him by precept and example is scientifically analyzed and pre- sented under the title of Naval Leadership. In his First Class year, the midshipman is instructed in Naval Organization and Admin- istration and Military Law, which completes the curriculum offered by the Executive De- partment. These latter two subjects are de- signed to give the midshipma n an insight into the ever expanding role played by the junior division officer in the modern Navy.
