Our JROTC Alumni are
a very busy bunch. Still, they try to keep in touch with us via e-mail and
visits. Needless to say, it’s a tremendous joy to see former cadets and hear
how they are doing in the big, bad world. We are very proud of them all,
regardless of their current status…because we are certain that success and
happiness are theirs sooner or later. Recently, several visited us during our
unit Christmas Party. Timothy Harris (96) Former Battalion Commander Majoring in Criminal Justice at the Univ of Detroit Mercy. Spearheads our paintball excursions. Melissa Childers (97) Former Battalion Commander Currently a junior at the US Coast Guard Academy and doing well. Also involved in Academy recruiting and admissions work. Ricardo Turner (98) Former Battalion Commander Majoring in Political Science with a Spanish minor (no, he's not attached to some illegal alien jailbait). He made the Dean's List (that would be the good one) at the US Military Academy, West Point. Hobbies include pinging, delivering laundry, and getting hazed. Advises work hard but enjoy too...after high school the work doesn't get any easier. Also remember, if it's worth gaining it'll be difficult to gain it. Joel Harris (98) Former Commandant and Bn XO Majoring in Computer Information Systems at Univ. of Detroit Mercy (GPA 3.5) adding that Renaissance was harder than college is. Avid paintball. Grocery store Supervisor part-time. Advises cadets to enjoy high school and develop friendships that last. Robert
