Break-Out at Virginia Military Institute. This coming-of-age ceremony is how rats (freshmen) become cadets at VMI. This rat - like everybody else in the rat mass - has gone through months of mentally and physically challenging tests, and these are the last steps and crawls to becoming part of the VMI family. He is helped by his dyke (mentor) behind him, and other upperclassmen. Scaling this muddy hill is no easy feat, especially as its the culmination of a days-long continuous challenge.
