Midshipman Bilotta is committing to an extra two years on the Navy payroll in order to get extended training in her chosen specialty: underwater explosives disposal.
On Friday, in the latest disclosure, the Pentagon confirmed that the U.S. Naval Academy is investigating allegations that three football team members sexually assaulted a female midshipman at an off-campus house last year.
"He handed me the check and said, 'I want my boat now, ' and we couldn't do it, " says Carroll, a former U.S. Naval Academy midshipman who grew up crewing for wealthy yacht owners in nearby Newport.
