Every day at the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York, a staff of over 200 people cooks and serves over 13,000 meals for the 4,400 Army cadets attending the school.

The cadets eat in historic Washington Hall, named after George Washington. Of the three meals served each day, lunch is the most complex. Students only have 25 minutes to enter the mess hall, complete a series of traditions and customs, and then eat their meal before returning to class.

Insider was given rare access to the prestigious dining hall to see how the staff prepares nutritious meals for the next generation of Army leadership.

Editor's note: An earlier version of the video featured a soundbite from a West Point dietician that said that the cadets are provided with 1,200 to 1,500 calories per day from the mess hall. The cadets are provided 1,200 to 1,500 calories per meal.
