LEAP FROGS
When the U.S. Navy Parachute Team, the Leap Frogs,
performed a demonstration jump June 15 for students
attending the Naval Academy Summer Seminar, they
took along an unexpected guest: a Naval Academy
midshipman.
Midshipman 1st Class Ryan Hill, president of the
academys Parachute Team, had the necessary
qualifcations, and his coach Mike Davidson brought up
the possibility of his jumping with the team when they
contacted him for air support.
The Naval Academy Parachute Team works in
conjunction with the Naval Academy Skydiving Club
to safely introduce midshipmen to the demands of
skydiving.
A new program is helping Naval Academy midshipmen
experience some of the rigors of fight school before
they decide what service assignment they want to
choose.
