Good afternoon everyone, I have been absent from the board for awhile, but did a quick check before starting the post, hopefully I am not being redundant.
Commissioning is coming up for the class of 2020, which has gone by so fast, well at least for me as a parent! My daughter and her Dad and I are totally over the feeling bad over the loss of an in person commissioning, just looking forward to celebrating her accomplishment however we can and excited to watch her follow her dream as an Army officer!
I am just curious how other units are handling commissioning for cadets this year? Her Army ROTC Battalion is having a virtual commissioning via Zoom (May 1st). They were all given the option to do the virtual commissioning ceremony, or if they know an officer locally (has to be on done on May 1, so no travel to get someone here due to travel ban), like a parent or family member, you can choose to do it in person. The third option since she is local to the college is she could go to campus and have her PMS commission her in person. She has not decided, I am sure she will soon. Just curious what everyone else is doing to celebrate, and also to say congrats to all the other 2020 grads this year, so fun to celebrate everyone!
