Slide Show: The newest (and youngest) black belt around

Billy Donahue, 8, of Greenport has been practicing Tae Kwon Do techniques for more than two years, initially starting three days a week, and quickly expanding to six days a week at Expert Martial Arts in Aquebogue.

The Greenport Elementary School third grader passed the black belt test with flying colors Saturday and is now certainly among the youngest students to ever achieve that rank in the Korean martial art.
