ALERT COVID Protocols | Col. Behr
Linked are protocols put in place for our IAA staff and battalion in training. Please read them carefully. The protocols are necessary to help us do whatever is reasonable to protect the men in training and thus assist us in mitigating the transmission of the virus. We fully understand no guidelines or policies can fully address the concerns and result in 100% protection but anything we can do as an overall organization on this campus in the areas of distancing and guarding unnecessary contact are not for loss.

We certainly continue to face challenges ahead as we make preparations for Basic in the fall. We covet your prayers and support that God would continue to put a hedge of protection around our training.

Thank you in advance for your full support. We regularly monitor the COVID-19 situation and if changes can be safely made we will keep you informed. These protocols are in place until further notice.

Leadership Corner | Maj. Boulden
Another week down and another week for reflection and learning. It has been said that “In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.” – Eric Hoffer) 

Don't waste the lesson. Things rarely turn out precisely the way we hoped. If we find the lesson and learn from it, it might be even more valuable than if we’d simply had everything work out fine. Keep learning!
Battalion Update | Capt. Vanderford
How time flies! We have crossed the half-way mark for this quarter as we move into what is a busy week for the battalion. Colonel Behr and the Tech Rescue unit is at the Northwoods Conference Center continuing to assist where 2nd phase left off last week. 2nd phase has begun Open Water dive training, and will also be doing Advanced Open Water training this week. Next week they will be receiving Special Response Diver training. CST continues to do very well as they faithfully serve in Operations and Facilities.
