Naval Academy Midshipmen all untrustworthy

According to the Washington Times, graduating midshipmen (read: Ensign), are not being permitted to carry the ceremonial sword at their graduation.

Because the president will be there.

Apparently, the Secret Service doesn't trust them to obey ANYTHING, much less their ORDERS -- you know, the ones they take freely.
