Cadet Candidates woke up on the TSPS while tied up at the academy. It was a busy morning, full of unloading sea bags and ship supplies. The biggest goal of the day was to prepare for tomorrow’s marching competition, and get ready for graduation.

C/Cs also took their Cadet Candidate Exam, and put their knowledge to the test. The results of the exam will go towards Admiral’s Cup, and is necessary for each candidate to be eligible to graduate tomorrow. There were 4 perfect scores on the exam, and each C/C should be proud of all the hard work they put into studying for the test.

With it being the last full day of orientation, it is extremely bittersweet. It will be the last night for nom noms, the last time preparing for the PT wake up, and hopefully Cadet Candidates are super excited for the graduation ceremony. Tomorrow will be a day with friends and family, to highlight accomplishments, and the steps the Cadet Candidates are taking into their journey at MMA.
