From the NavyTimes:
Jablonski was a class leader, achieving the top academic honors of Superintendent's List his last three semesters. He also played for the Academy's men's club ice hockey team.
He was known in his class for his upbeat outlook, the Naval Academy's commandant said in a statement.
"Midshipman Jablonski was well known by fellow Midshipmen for his tremendous optimism and ability to have a positive impact on everyone he met, even in the face [of] a disease like leukemia," Marine Col. Steve Liszewski said. "His attitude and fighting spirit can serve as an inspiration to us all, and his passing is a humble reminder about the value of life."
