Navy’s tall ships, midshipmen arrive at Freeport Nautical Mile

Dozens of Navy midshipmen have arrived in Freeport Thursday morning on board their sailboats coming from Annapolis, Maryland.
The arrival of the tall ships is a summer tradition that dates back about two decades. During their stay, the midshipmen will be part of a summer sailing training class.
The midshipmen will stay until Saturday, where they will take part in a parade marking the 125th anniversary of the Freeport Fire Department.
The Navy will march in the parade down the Nautical Mile before an evening fireworks display.
