From plebe to officer: Only a gap of a hat

US Naval Academy freshmen, known as plebes, climb the Herndon Monument, a tradition symbolizing the successful completion of the midshipmen freshman year May 23, 2016 in Annapolis, Maryland. The plebes-no-more ceremony involves working together to climb the greased monument and replace a plebe dixie-cup hat on top with a combination cover. [Photo/IC]
