Brigade Summer Training Action Shot Contest

It's finally here. That moment you've been waiting for that you didn't even know you were waiting for.

The Brigade submitted tons of action shots from all their awesome summer training activities, from international travel to wilderness training in Alaska to flying in F/A-18s. They were all fantastic, and made those of us who aren't midshipmen kinda wish we were. We think you'll agree. Check it out.

And the winner is ...
