There I was at the U.S. Naval Academy, and I wanted to see some action. Specifically, I wanted to see chow. After watching midshipmen walk around the Yard (as the campus is known) in their reserved and rigid manner, I imagined them lined up at table in similar martial dignity. So at the end of my recent morning tour, I walked over to a mess hall to confirm my preconceptions. Boy, was I wrong. Before I saw it, I heard it. Utensils and plates clattered, and the roar of voices sounded more like an Army-Navy football game than the disciplined eating drill I'd imagined....
