Company B-1, Texas A&M Corps of Cadets

On 3/2/2013, Amy Pacheco and Miguel Hernandez passed away returning from Houston after judging a JROTC competition. A drunk driver had driven in the wrong side of the road and crashed into their vehicle.

Today, Company B-1 conducted a memorial workout for our battlers honoring both of their lives. Both Amy and Miguel were hard workers and represented Company B-1 well.

Amy graduated from Cesar E. Chavez High School in 2012 and had always dreamed of coming to Texas A&M and joining the Corps of Cadets. She came into the university pursuing a Construction Science degree with multiple scholarships from various institutions. She always had a smile on her famous and a giving heart. Everyone who crossed her path loved her.

Miguel came into Texas A&M as a General Studies major and had a love for the people around him. His buddy Arturo Hutera always said that he checked up or his buddies throughout their hard times they encountered. Miguel impacted so many people to better themselves.

In honor of both Amy and Miguel, the "Walk like MADD" is hosting a walk/run 5K to raise money for prevention/ awareness of drunk drivers. Texas has one of the highest rates of drunk driving fatalities. Let's make a difference and get home safely.

Rachelle is from Waxhaw, NC, is majoring in meteorology, and hopes to branch engineering or air defense artillery.

Although our ‘24 battlers became dead zips 3 months ago, their leadership has played a major impact in the progression of Company B-1. We are so proud of our Battlers and can’t wait to see what they will do in the future. Comment your favorite memory with the class of ‘24!
