The Park is a restaurant -- my firstie says one of the things he will miss most is Sunday breakfast at the park with his friends.

Thanks -- it is exciting and a bit scary to realize how quickly it passed!

Even plebes are allowed walking privileges (going off post inside a prescribed area) on weekends once duties are completed. They just have to be back in the barracks by a prescribed time. The restriction on how far they can go changes as they advance through the class system. Upperclassman often go to NYC on the weekends.

One of the most popular plebe destinations is Dunkin Donuts in Highland Falls.

The Park is definitely a restaurant, not a park.
