Enough distance between the chapel and the cemetery on Hospital Point.

As a midshipman at USNA, I sang in one of the church choirs. Before services on Sunday morning, we would warm up in a small memorial chapel beneath the main chapel and adjacent to JPJ’s crypt. After warmups, we would go to the crypt where mess stewards had set up coffee and cookies for us to enjoy. Always get a kick telling people I had coffee with JPJ every Sunday.

And a magnificent sight it is:
