US Naval Academy Alumni in the News.

Folks from my alma mater, making us all proud.

She's actually class of '85, same year my older brother graduated.

Remember... we are the nation's "best and brightest."

You normal peons would never consider wearing diapers so you wouldn't have to stop at roadside rest area.

See, that's what we call the "fancy book learnin'."

abc7.com: Astronaut Charged With Attempted Murder:

A NASA astronaut accused of trying to kidnap a romantic rival for a space shuttle pilot's affections was charged with attempted first-degree murder Tuesday and released from jail after posting $25,500 bail...

Police said Nowak drove 900 miles, donned a disguise and was armed with a BB gun and pepper spray when she confronted a woman she believed was a competitor for the affections of Navy Cmdr. William Oefelein, an unmarried fellow astronaut.

...Inside Nowak's vehicle, which was parked at a nearby motel, authorities found a pepper spray package, an unused BB-gun cartridge, latex gloves and e-mails between Oefelein and Colleen Shipman.

...Nowak raced from Houston to Orlando wearing diapers in the car so she wouldn't have to stop to go to the bathroom, authorities said.

Dressed in a wig and a trench coat, she waited for Shipman's plane to land and then boarded the same airport shuttle bus Shipman took to get to her car, police said.
