Will merch be sold at graduation?

Can anyone order these or just only for the graduates?

Some of our 1st Platoon got to spend some time helping out a local church. The building needed a new coat of paint, and our ladies stepped up to help! I'm not sure which had more paint on it by the end of the day, the church building or Cadet Harvey (Check out that second photo) 😂 The ladies did great work and had a great time serving the local community.

📸 Thank-you TL Novar and Ms. Crittenden from New Jordan Baptist Church for the photos!

Michael Parker I don't see Aaron wonder why she didn't get to go?

Week 18; our final banner ceremony of Cycle 64!

We are so proud of how much these cadets have grown this cycle and all the things that they have accomplished!

The final banners go to:

Spirit: 1st Platoon
Drill and Ceremony: 1st platoon

Barracks: 2nd Platoon
Leadership: 2nd Platoon
Physical Fitness: 2nd Platoon

Today we also passed out a new banner, Honor Platoon. This banner was to go to the platoon with the most banners won throughout the cycle. This cycle we actually had a tie! Our 1st and 2nd Platoon tied for Honor Platoon with 27 total banners won per platoon this cycle.

Great work this cycle cadets! Congratulations!
