Had a great day at the zero/qualification range with @vfmac ROTC! 🇺🇸
Cadets in their 2nd year practiced leadership and planning while both 1st and 2nd year Cadets honed their skills with the M4! 💥💥💥

It is not the awards, it is not the feeling of success as the Plebes join the Corps of the Cadets, it is not even the fact that they are going home on Spring Break.
It is the unbreakable bond of brothers who finished what they started together.
