At USNA we the last one through in line for the sword arch would whack the bride in the butt and say, “Welcome to the Navy!” I wonder what the USMA equivalent, and in this, ahem, format, would be like...

I would imagine the sabers were held at the waist, pointing up?

"This is the end of the world as we know it." A good song for that wedding crowd.
