We were honored to host the 89th MP Brigade CSM on the Battalion footprint last week. Soldiers had the opportunity to hear firsthand about the incredible benefits the Army offers and the many reasons to continue serving. Reenlistment isn’t just a decision—it’s a commitment to growth, opportunity, and a brighter future. A huge thank you to CSM Caprio for taking the time to meet with these fine young Soldiers.
