ANNAPOLIS, Md. (Tribune News Service) — Midshipman 1st Class William Donohoe had seen the Blue Angels before as a plebe.
But this time, standing on Ingram Field with his mother, the soon-to-be Naval Academy graduate felt the show was different.
Not only did he see the show days before he would commission into the Marine Corps, but Donohoe also saw it as someone soon to train as a Marine pilot.
