The nation’s newest Army officers

The Citadel Photo

Citadel cadets who earned commissions as officers in the U.S. Army celebrated via a virtual event offered by the college’s Palmetto Battalion AROTC unit, commanded by Col. John Cyrulik, USA. An estimated 100 – 115 cadets participated in the event, according to Cyrulik.

The ceremony included the recitation of the oath by the cadets who were asked to be in uniform, if possible, and who had sponsors with them to pin their gold bars on those uniforms.

The college invites cadets to send photos of their first salutes, along with the names in the photographs, to OCM@citadel.edu.
