I'm sorry to say that last Saturday was not a fruitful day for the Spartan Battalion. No medals, No trophies. Despite that, I think that all who represented TJ came away with some valuable institutional knowledge that should benefit them and our battalion in the future. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Sergeant Major Byassee and Lieutenant Colonel Roberts for hosting a well-run drill meet. The judges (all volunteers, by the way) were professional and prsented a true picture of today's military. To the best of my knowledge, all teams were at their stations on time. I don't know of anyone who was behind schedule. In case you didn't notice, we had teans from Colorado, Wyoming, and Alaska involved in the competition. |

It is 5:30am. Within the hour, we will be meeting the bus in preparation for today's Rocky Mountain Regional Drill Meet at the Denver Coliseum. Our drill teams and color guards have been training hard in preparation for today's events. There will be teams from all over Colorado and Wyoming, so we know the competition will be tough. Good luck Spartans. |
