Spring Arbor University ROTC

This weekend our Cadre and soon-to-be-commissioned 400s visited Gettysburg National Military park on their Staff-ride.
The Cadets toured the battlefield in chronological order, starting at McPherson’s Ridge and ending at the High-water mark of the Confederacy. Each Cadet was tasked with briefing a portion of the battle, while Cadre reinforced those briefings and provided more lessons learned.
The battle of Gettysburg (July 1-3, 1863) was a major turning point in the Civil War. Meade’s Army of the Potomac (Union) faced off against Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia (Confederate). At the end of the three day conflict, around 51,000 Americans were wounded, missing, or killed.

The Eagle BN's Cadets from Spring Arbor have started their fall Field Training Exercise (FTX) focusing on Operation Agile Warrior tasks. Cadets will complete day /night land navigation, weapons qualification and leadership assessments through a series of STX lanes.

SAU ROTC conducted their first diagnostic APFT for the Fall Semester! Leading the way were Cadets Behme and Kilgore. Cadet Behme exceeded the maximum score with a 310 out of 300 on the extended scale and Cadet Kilgore scored a 279 out of 300! Great Job Cougars!
