  POSTED ON: Tuesday, June 7, 2022 9:00 AM by mediarelations@usna.edu

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- The Naval Academy is deeply saddened to confirm that a midshipman died early this morning while on leave from the Naval Academy. The cause of death is being investigated.

The Brigade of Midshipmen, faculty, and staff were notified of the midshipman’s death this morning. Out of respect for the family’s privacy, the identity of the midshipman is being withheld for 24 hours after next of kin notification. 

The Naval Academy is supporting the midshipman’s family, friends, and loved ones during this time of grief. Counseling services and support are available to midshipmen, faculty, and staff through chains of command, our chaplains, and the Midshipmen Development Center.
