Cadets, Saturday, Brooklyn Bridge Park

It appeared on Saturday that military cadets were taking over Brooklyn Bridge Park but it turned out that numerous QuinceaƱera groups were flooding the park for photo shoots.

QuinceaƱera is a 15th birthday coming-of-age celebration for Latina girls.

According to various Internet posts, in Mexico cadets would often participate in the ceremony. Today cadet uniforms are often worn in honor of this tradition.
