FLASH - April 19, 2002, Waycross High School JROTC Detachment...
HUD - 9th Straight Year
"We are all we can be once again" said SFC Gene Ramos Friday evening
as he spoke with former SAI, LTC Bobby Rich. Nine years ago, we were eligible
to compete for the award, only after the detachment had been organized for two
years. On celebration of the third school year, the detachment became eligible
for the award, and has retained that designation since initial award - 9 years
ago.
To qualify for the award, the detachment must accomplish a myriad of tasks that
ranges the entire school year. There must be minimum enrollment goals
meet, social engagements meet, parades, drill meets, rifle teams, grades,
briefings, field trips, and the list could go on, and on. But just believe
that a great deal of hard work by all the members of the detachment as once
again paid off - the gold star for the 9th straight year.
"Atta-boy" said LTC Rich
