The University of Guam Army ROTC program held its Cadet Battalion Change of Command Ceremony early Friday morning at the UOG Calvo Field House.


Cadet Battalion Commander Brendan Santos handed over the leadership of the battalion to Cadet Kortney Camacho.

Santos is a graduate of George Washington High School and is majoring in political science, while Camacho is a graduate of Guam High School and is majoring in criminal justice. The Change of Command Ceremony is a time-honored tradition in military services that signifies the ordered transition of leadership duties in military units. At UOG, the Cadet Battalion executes a change of command every semester, and every UOG ROTC graduate has the opportunity to serve in numerous leadership positions throughout their time in the program.
