  • Enjoy this look back at the Class of 2023's Plebe Summer experience.
    Purpose of Plebe Summer
    The purpose of Plebe Summer is to lay the foundation of the Academy's four-year professional development curriculum. At the conclusion of summer training, each Plebe class shall:
    Be indoctrinated in the traditions of the Naval Service and the Naval Academy;
    Understand basic military skills and the meaning behind them;
    Appreciate the high standards and obligations inherent in service as a Midshipmen and Naval Officer;
    Be dedicated to excellence in a competitive atmosphere that fosters leadership, teamwork, character, and a passion for "winning;"
    Appreciate the importance of mental, moral, and physical toughness in all aspects of duty and service; and
    Be prepared to execute the rigorous academic year routine.
    About USNA
    As the undergraduate college of our country’s naval service, the Naval Academy prepares young men and women to become professional officers of competence, character, and compassion in the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. Naval Academy students are midshipmen on active duty in the U.S. Navy.
    They attend the academy for four years, graduating with bachelor of science degrees and commissions as ensigns in the Navy or second lieutenants in the Marine Corps. Naval Academy graduates serve at least five years in the Navy or Marine Corps.

    Everybody thinks their class had the last "real" plebe summer/plebe year but even with more restrictions they find a way to keep it hard. My dad was '72, I am '01 and my brother is '04. We swapped a lot of stories over the years and it has not changed that much. However no classes after 2005 or so will ever know the suffering of a Plebe summer without air conditioning in Bancroft Hall. You step out of a cold shower and are sweating again by the time you are dressed.

I became a Soldier. A Flight Lieutenant. A leader of MEN. It is not easy. That is why it is called WORK! And EVERYTHING in the Military is WORK! The only thing worse than being Soldier? Is to never have been Soldier.

      @@myownspiritlevel There's two aspects of "hard" one is the learning/intensity curve which makes USMC bootcamp hard. Then there is that level of hard which only those who are both very fit and have extremely high aptitude can handle -- that's Naval Academy hard. Any of the latter would likely do well in any bootcamp, but Plebe Summer is just the start after which it does NOT necessarily get easier.
      If I had a choice between doing bootcamp ten times or four years at the Academy, I would choose the Academy but not because it would be the easier of the two. In my experience it wasn't.
      Btw, while I did only go through bootcamp once, I did graduate as platoon honor man, so my comparison is not entirely hypothetical.

    This is essentially their boot camp I suppose. I know they aren’t showing everything so I’d imagine they’re more intense off camera.
    So for anyone that’s in and/or has been through the Academy, once the Pleb Summer is over, you’re essentially in a student status or are you still in a boot camp style phase?
    I’ve also wondered that after graduation do you go through OTS or are you getting all of that over with during your four years of schooling?

      You need to have a Bachelor's degree to become an officer in any branch, but going to the academy is just one way to become commissioned. There are other routes, such as going through ROTC at an affiliated college, or earning your degree elsewhere and then going to Officer Candidate School.
