I served with a Naval Academy Graduate. He was better trained, better educated, and more confident than my measly ROTC training would allow. He was able to work effectively for weeks on end on 4-5 hours of sleep. His shipboard routine was flawless, and I have never seen anyone able to eat so quickly. A large piece of lasagna, salad, and two breadsticks in less than five minutes. And he must have consumed 15-20 cups of coffee a day. His only problem came when we were in port. The guy had no idea what to do with free time.

So much food! And the staff caters to the midshipmen and solicits their opinion. This is a great country, and a wealthy country, to supply so much to midshipmen.

I went to West Point, and while i didn't enjoy EVERY meal, we ate pretty well. I never knew how complicated the service was until I watched the video on West Point's Mess Hall and now this one on Navy's wardroom. Always appreciated the kindness of the staff's kindness and their willingness to give us extra food if it was available. Seems like nothing has changed

Salute to all the staff who feed the Navy Academy's midshipmen. Young bodies need fuel to learn and prepare to serve our country in war and peace. Go Navy!!

I live about 15 minutes away from the academy in Pasadena. We always run into the shipman in Annapolis and they are always so friendly. I always make sure to tell them how much we appreciate their service and bravery.

Oh my...Doing KP duty back in 1980 during boot camp at Parris Island, was a real wake up call to a lot of recruits. Coming from a family that had a catering business, I LOVED IT. 6 days of basically peeling potatoes, washing a shit load of dishes, and serving the food and helping prepare it, and not having a D.I. up your ass all day was such a nice break out of those 13 weeks.

This was very interesting and I think that the cooks do a fantastic job feeding those nice young people. It is very heartening to see their happy faces.

Providing meals to military folks, away from their loved-ones, was my honor.

was a Marine, did a westpac between Iraq deployments. I’ll say, sailors work so much harder than I imagined while at sea. Now to the officers, holy shit are they spoiled on ship with food. They had an area of the ship called officers country, hardwood floors, single rooms, own chow hall, etc.. way better food than the rest of us, as much as they want and eggs to order. I couldn’t believe it. We used to say our officers were spoiled but nowhere as close to navy officers.

Depending on the region, the US Navy will purchase food from nearby countries, or receive supplies from the various Naval Support Activities around the world. Carriers are even better because they can use C-2 Greyhounds to pick up food and mail. You underestimate the logistical capabilities of the US Navy.

Hey, Midshipman here! Oktoberfest was a hit this past year, and it always is. Often times when you sit down in King Hall, you’ve got 100s of things you need to do racing in your brain. Just being able to chill with your squad and eat some good food can really make a difference, we all appreciate KH workers so much. Their efficiency is 100% noted and we appreciate them a ton. Also, Dave O’Malley (the guy with short hair in black) who ran King Hall for years passed away very suddenly after Oktoberfest. His years of hard work meant a ton to us, RIP.

A chef who was hospitalized made videos about the food he was served. Unlike some of the comments here, he was very respectful of what the people in the kitchen had to do with what they had to work with.

From the Buffalo N.Y. area we are proud to share all our our culinary delights

So nice to see the rich kids finally have a nice camp to go to that they don’t have to feel they are on the same level of poor people! This video is scary. ‘Merica

Thank you very much Navy for the great job you do protecting America for us. Thanks for the video !

Great job thanks for ur services 👍🏾 😀 👏🏿 😊

I went to Job Corps in Oregon 20 years ago and our cook was a grizzled old Navy cook who'd burned his taste buds off years ago. The man was such a good cook, and we ate SO well. Almost everyone gained weight there. And they were supposed to be feeding all 400 some odd students on under $1.60 a meal. The spaghetti sauce was amazing (served on penne, always) and they had to limit us on the breadsticks so everyone got a chance at them. Hot turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy on bread... Every weekend we had biscuits and gravy, eggs cooked to order, sausage, chunky potatoes... soda on tap for lunch and dinner. Salad bar, bread and bagels, fruit, soups, and even a nacho cart with hot chips and cheese. The US government is NOT playing when they invest in the food they serve to those they train.

The Navy was Disbanded after the Revolution. For 8 years the Revenue Cutter Service or the United States Coast Guard Defended Our Country. We Are The Oldest Continuous Sea Going Service in The United States. Semper Forgotus 1790!!

The best food I ever had in the Navy was on a Unitas cruise of South America in 1973. From Brazil to Uruguay, we had a steak option at every meal. The cooks actually would ask how we wanted it cooked and I would tell them to hit it with a hammer to make sure its dead, sear both sides and serve it up. Still eat my steak that way.
