The executive session of the meeting from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on June 3, 2013, will consist of discussions of new and pending administrative/minor disciplinary infractions and non-judicial punishments involving the Midshipmen attending the Naval Academy to include but not limited to individual honor/ conduct violations within the Brigade, and personnel issues.
