Today, four of our cadets proudly commissioned into the U.S. Army National Guard as Second Lieutenants. This achievement reflects their dedication, discipline, and commitment to service. We congratulate each of them on reaching this significant milestone and wish them the utmost success as they begin their careers as officers.

We have full confidence that they will lead with integrity, uphold the values of the Army, and continue to represent our program with excellence. Their hard work has set a strong example for future cadets, and we look forward to seeing the impact they will make in the years ahead.
