This weekend we've had several cadets traveling out of town for Army drill and other commitments. Rather than forcing them to drive back in inclement weather, I've made the decision to move outfit pictures to the first weekend that we are back next semester. We already have a day scheduled with AR Photography. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. Thanks!

100 mile completion
This morning, A-Co finished our 100 mile goal for the semester with a 5 mile run! This came after being woken up at 3:40 by a fire alarm in dorm 9!
There's a decimal in there somewhere...
The outfit has worked incredibly hard this semester and has faced a great deal of adversity to include shorter training times and last minute schedule changes. The completion of this goal is not just about the mileage, but the spirit of what we are hoping to accomplish as members of the Corps. We all worked together and supported each other through 8 home games, 1 away game, and a tough semester of courses to reach where we are today.
Running 100 miles is something that makes our outfit unique, but also gives us a focused mindset. Similar to running, our daily academic and personal focuses ultimately sum to a larger goal. We try to bring an attitude of "Relentless Pursuit" to all that we do, knowing that it will inevitably lead to something greater in the future.
