Want to learn more about the customs and traditions of a Naval Mess Dinner?   Keep reading to download a guide to Naval Mess Dinners.

A Cadet Mess Dinner is based on hundreds of years of Naval Customs and Traditions, adapted to the Cadet organization.  Here is a guide you can download and read:  Naval Mess Dinner Guide.

Cadets, of course, can ignore any parts that mention wine, drinks or fines.  Cadet Mess Dinners serve fruit juice or punch instead of wine, and instead of fines, the President of the Mess Committee reminds diners of the proper etiquette by having them perform songs or dances, by changing their meal privileges (ie, being last to be served dessert), etc.   A Cadet Naval Mess Dinner is all about fun, within the framework of acceptable Naval etiquette!
