What a week to be a Mizzou Midshipman!

First, we had the opportunity conduct the color guard for Mizzou football vs Texas A&M. While we were on the field, we bumped into crew from the USS Columbia!

Next, our first batch of 4th class midshipmen completed their color guard qualifications. Their attention to detail and dedication to service met the standard of a Mizzou midshipman. Now, they are ready to take on the color guards that we proudly conduct.

Lastly, we had the distinct privilege of receiving “Stop The Bleed” training, courtesy of the Mizzou Sinclair School of Nursing. This training is crucial for future development, as our midshipman go into future combat. A special thanks to Rebecca Ulmer and Kim Oeth for instructing the battalion on such important skills. by @mizzounrotc

This week, Navy option midshipmen received important training in basic damage control. In the fleet, all sailors are required to have fire fighting training, as well as casualty maintenance training.

Last week, we honored MIDN Boswell with the midshipman of the month award. MIDN Boswell demonstrated exceptional leadership, commitment, and dedication. His work ethic and strong character support strong officer development within our unit.

MIDN Helle received the warhammer, for his outstanding initiative in color guard training. His time and effort spent is exemplary, as a Mizzou midshipman. by @mizzounrotc

Today, we honor the lives of those lost on September 11th, 2001. 25 years ago, 2977 innocent people were killed, and will never be forgotten. The tragic events of 9/11 brought us as Americans closer, uniting our country in such a time of grief. Let us remember.

Captain Jack Punches graduated the University of Missouri in 1973, and commissioned into the United States Navy as a naval aviator. Captain Punches was stationed at the pentagon during the events of 9/11, and was killed that day. We remember his sacrifice. by @mizzounrotc

Earlier that afternoon, Navy option midshipmen were introduced to life as a junior officer. This brief went into detail on how living and working is, as a young officer in the Navy. by @mizzounrotc

NSO Day 3!

4/C midshipmen have completed New Student Orientation!
Day 3 began with a memorial PT to honor Lieutenant William Emerson, 2ndLt Mark Gelina, and Captain Jack Punches. This PT included a run, ammo can presses, pushups, and more. In the classroom, 4/C midshipmen were introduced to academic resources and conducted a tactical decision game. Drill remained a key part of NSO, as the 4/C honed their marching with the unit’s Color Sergeant. Lastly, the 4/C were officially welcomed into the unit by our BNCO and Commanding Officer.

A special shout out to the NSO Staff who planned, executed, and delivered this training exercise.
