The annual freshmen pillow fight at West Point military academy is supposed to be a fun way to blow off steam, but this year's match turned bloody when some cadets swung pillows full of heavy objects, thought to be helmets.

Thirty cadets were injured, including 24 with concussions, according to West Point.

The injured cadets suffered from split lips, dislocated shoulders and at least one broken bone. The Aug. 20 pillow fight was discussed on social media but West Point did not confirm it to the The New York Times until Thursday.
