On April 5, 2023, five juniors and one sophomore vied in an annual competition known as Platoon Drill Competition. Every year, juniors lead a platoon, one from every company, in drill and ceremony for a large and important competition that truly shows leadership skills and military poise. The juniors are given a few weeks to build a platoon in the necessary skills to compete well sometimes, however, it does not go as planned. One from this year that not only went well, but was well-led was Bravo Company’s platoon. Colin Dart ‘24 took up the daunting task and was able to compile the most disciplined and poised platoon in the corps. Congratulations, Colin Dart, on a successful drill competition. The graduating seniors wish you the best in your leadership position within the corps (battalion executive officer).
