Army picks 成人AV视频 ROTC team for Ranger Challenge participation
The 成人AV视频 Army ROTC program recently participated in the Ranger Challenge for the first time as a team against ROTC programs in Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Puerto Rico.
成人AV视频's ROTC traditionally sends one or two cadets to join the University of Florida team for the Ranger Challenge, as UF is a host school. Due to the recent growth of 成人AV视频’s ROTC and the quality of cadets produced, the Army has selected 成人AV视频 to become its own host program in the near future and invited 成人AV视频 to send its own team this year. These efforts include growing the program from about five to seven commissioned cadets per year to 12 to 15. Two 成人AV视频 current seniors also placed in the top 1% of all cadets across the country in the ROTC summer training program culminating event.
The Ranger Challenge is an Army ROTC varsity sport. Teams form and train rigorously for a semester, starting their daily training well before the sun rises. Some of the events that cadets compete in include patrolling, marksmanship, weapons assembly, military communications, grenade assault course, functional fitness test, night land navigation, 10-kilometer road march, and chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear tests.
“Getting hands-on training for some of the events is challenging for our cadets, so we went to the competition with low expectations and an eagerness to learn and grow,” said Master Sergeant Josh Coronado, 成人AV视频 military science senior instructor. “However, our Osprey student cadets far surpassed even their own expectations. We have great team cohesion and a tenacity to win.”
