aviation Capt. Ralph Weymouth The vast and relatively new field of Naval Aviation is presented to the midshipman by the Department of Aviation in a curriculum con- sisting of aerodynamics, meteorology, and air operations, coupled with the relationship of the midshipman with seasoned Naval aviators. To enable the midshipman to derive the most from the instruction, the Department of- fers a course in flight indoctrination during Second Class summer and First Class year in which the midshipman can get the feeling of an aircraft in its own element. The Department of Aviation feels that this comprehensive program of theoretical and practical instruction in aviation gives the mid- shipman a knowledge and appreciation of the potential of Naval air power and that through this knowledge he may be commissioned a more versatile officer on graduatio n.
