It’s that time of the semester again! GMC Takeover week went off without a hitch! A huge shout out to C/3C Rits and her team for successfully organizing and executing LLAB and PT 09. The GMC Takeover group staff created an educational GLP reflecting what European leaders were faced with leading up to WWII. Cadets immersed themselves in history and experienced the complexity of the decision-making process. The GMC Takeover group staff also organized an optional group PT session where cadets participated in competitive field day activities.
Congratulations to the 5 cadets who contracted and took the Oath of Enlistment during LLAB 09! Det 370 is proud of your hard work and dedication to the program.

Det 370 spent time outside reviewing drill and learning guidon and Open Ranks Inspection procedures. Cadets split into groups of Initial Military Training cadets and Field Training Preparation cadets. While the IMTs reviewed basic drill, the FTPs worked on more advanced drill and strengthened their leadership skills when calling commands.
