A story of Leadership and Excellence!!
•
•
As a member of the South Dakota Army National Guard, CDT Zachary Briggs went to Annual Training this year with the notion that he would be shadowing his Lieutenant, who herself is an SDSU Alum! Although, circumstances changed when his Lieutenant was sent to school and CDT Briggs had to fill in as the Platoon Leader. Using knowledge he learned from ROTC, CDT Briggs help lead maintenance, convoy, and reconnaissance operations with his Platoon during AT. At a time of need and adversity, CDT Briggs was able to fill in as a leader before he himself commissioned. Well done CDT Briggs! #fightingjacks #armystrong #goguard #3rdbdearmyrotc #inourboots @armyrotc | @3rdrotcbrigade | @sdstatepics | @sdarng | @goarmy

It’s #humpday🐪 ! During our PT sessions, we like to do lots of pushups to build our upper body strength. When done properly, pushups can strengthen not only the arms, but the lower back and the abdominal muscles. #workoutwednesday #dominate #3rdbdearmyrotc #armyrotc #inourboots @armyrotc | @sdstatepics | @3rdrotcbrigade | @goarmy | @sdarng

Here is a #throwbackthursday back in February when the cadets were conducting Lead Lab on TMKs. Fun Fact: TMK, which is an abbreviation for “Terrain Model Kit”, is a collection of items which assists in briefing the execution of a mission. It is an interactive map that shows how a squad, platoon, or a company will carry out a mission. • • • • • #dominate #3rdbdearmyrotc #inourboots @goarmy @armyrotc @3rdrotcbrigade

Comments
Words of encouragement from an alumni:
My very first pt test in rotc, I got down to do my pushups, and will all of my strength I busted out...5. I was embarrassed and ashamed until the pms, ltc holter came up to me and said good job! Now set your own goal for beating that next time. I'll never forget it.
Don't worry abt other people's score or career or path. You can look to them as goals or motivation, but don't compare. My mindset from that day forward was just to beat my own score. Before I left the program I was getting 300+ on the apft. (After being told by another cadet that i just didn't have the body to make 300) I have loved my career path, and try to focus on making my career better, and being a better officer than I was the day before.
Be the best you. Not the best someone else. Focus on changing you into just a better You. But still you. You have something to offer the army, your soldiers, the rotc program that no one else can.
-class of '08
I heard sad news the other day that Arch Telgren had passed away. Many a cadet that passed through the SDSU Army ROTC program between 1968 and 1991 had the pleasure of working with Arch....and God help you if you didn't get your administrative paperwork back to him in a timely manner....he'd let you know about it. He always had our best interests at heart, even though sometimes we didn't. He was a good friend and he will be sorely missed!
