The kill

As the wing gathers for Noon Meal Formation on the Friday before Parents' Weekend, an upperclass cadet will dress up like a smack and gimp across the Terrazzo in front of the Chapel Wall. A whole bunch of other upperclassmen then come by and train the hell out of him, perhaps kicking his crutches out from under him, making him do pushups and then stomping on him a couple of times when he falls to the ground. Parents love this little trick.
