When the two midshipmen sat down at his Crofton dinner table four years ago, Greg Baur made one thing clear: His daughter was off-limits.</p>

<p>Baur was a little worried that becoming a “sponsor parent” at the Naval Academy - agreeing to play host to students on holidays and weekends throughout their four years - could backfire. After all, Mids can be fairly handsome in their uniforms…

<p>We were at the Chapel yesterday for my nephew’s baptism and as we were finishing up family pictures on the steps, a beautiful bride and her equally lovely bridesmaids were on their way to the Bride’s Room. We watched the swordsmen practicing near the entrance to St Andrew’s Chapel with all the D.O.G’s in our group dying to give pointers. It was a treat!</p>
