NAVAL ACADEMY - 2008-03-10 10:28:08

Once again -- The Naval Academy need to be RE-investigated !!!!!!! Don't you remember when they investigated the treatment of their own employees- by their own employees, at the officer's club on the academy & THE NAVY LOST!! The officer's club provides some of the employees services for the new stadium.
Someone needs to step up and REALLY LOOK at the officer's club and the naval academy. ANYONE should be able to rent the new facilities at the NAVY STADIUM and get services by whom ever they choose. IT MAKES MONEY FOR THE CITY AND THE NAVY!!!! The academy is as crooked as ever!!!

WHOSE running the Academy these days?? Lots of rotten eggs there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
