Battalion Update | Capt. Vanderford
The significant events for the Battalion this week are Construction class heading to Alaska and EMTs on clinicals, and the Secret Church event on Friday. Construction will be working with Samaritan’s Purse on a school building project in Kenai. The EMTs will be rotating through clinicals for the next two weeks. The guys will rotate with about two-thirds of the class on clinical shifts, and the other third back in class doing things such as review and skills practice. Missions returned safely last night from their two-week trip to Indiana and Pennsylvania. Dive will be doing tactical dive training for the first part of this week, so you may see odd activity around the lake after dark. Please pray for God to give wisdom to each of us in leadership as we work through various situations and conversations with the students.
Basic Training Update | Capt. Hawley
Unit 70 ventures into its sixth week of training and will be participating in its hardest event so far—the 24 Hour Endurance Hike. Lord willing, the Unit will head out Tuesday afternoon for Oklahoma, start the hike early Wednesday and be back by Thursday afternoon. Please be in prayer for the men and us as their leadership that we would have decent weather for the safety of the hike, that we would stay healthy, and that we would all finish well.
