2009 Spring Commissioning

On May 9^th in the presence of our families, friends and special guests, the MSIV Cadets of the Fighting Saints Battalion took the Oath of Office and were pinned as  Second Lieutenants.  Of the sixteen Cadets, seven commissioned into the Active Component and nine into the Minnesota Army National Guard.



This ceremony marked the end of our ROTC and college careers and the beginning of our careers as Army Officers. The rest of 2009 and 2010 will find us, along with the other newly commissioned Second Lieutenants, training at BOLC II and our branch specific Officer Basic Course at Army installations around the country.
