The past four years in the Rocket Battalion have contained the best experiences of my life. I have grown and developed as a leader and as an individual during my time here in ROTC. Between cultural internships in Morocco and Tanzania, Airborne school, Ranger Company training and everyday physical training, I have realized and embraced the unique opportunities the military can bring. Not only that, but I have learned how to analyze situations on a strategic level, task manage, delegate, adapt to various environments and more! I know these varied experiences will converge to prepare me for the adventures that lay ahead. I have experienced personal failures and successes in front of my peers, those who I can now call my best friends and family, and I have hope and enthusiasm about the future that the Rocket Battalion has paved for me.”
