BCT Day 3. Hurricane impact was minimal! Shoe shining, marching, yummy lunch from the NJROTC Boosters, Minion Yoga and PT, followed by XOs inspection. A full day that wrapped with a fun tig-of-war that resulted in some new bonds between vadrr (upperclassmen) and the new cadets! Come see us graduate tomorrow at PHS, 1200 at the football field!

Day 2 of BCT brought some high points like additional drill, a "whisper" allowance at lunch, some uniform care and hygiene (shaving, sock buns and deodorant (😄) training. Although we regret to inform you that a thorough ground search for a lost pet rock resulted in a sorrowful memorial service. We know these cadet are all starting to answer the question, " " with a resounding YES! We know tomorrow will bring lots more learning and laughter!
