Additional Details:
Originally the figurehead of the U.S.S. Delaware, the bust of the Indian chief is good - luck charm of the midshipmen, who toss pennies at it for luck. For special occasions like the Navy Army game, it is decorated with warpaint; during the rest of the year, it stands in its natural stone - grey.
