Blog #16 My Goals and Dreams for the future

Your last blog of the year and here is your chance to be daring and let us know what your goals and ambitions are.  Since there is no wrong answer to this work, be honest and define your goals for your next year at the Fort and for life.  Remember to be specific as always and to define how you are going to accomplish these goals.  My personal goal for this summer is to lose 10 pounds over the next 2 months.  I am going to go to gym a minimum of 5 times a week and work out for at least one hour each day.  Additionally, I am going to ride my bike a minimum of 5 miles daily, more if time allows.  My food intake is already addressed so by limiting my calories and increasing my exercise, I should be able to measure my weight loss.  I hope to see you back in class at the start of the new school year, thinner and happier.  Regards and here is a video I hope that you enjoy.

Blog #15 Celebrating the 70th Anniversary of D-Day

This Friday, the 6th of June is the 70th Anniversary of D-Day. The largest mounted amphibious assault ever launched by mankind.  We are forever in their debt for the sacrifices that they made to keep mankind free.  Here is a video commemorating the 70th Anniversay and gives you a personal point of view about these vets that fought there.  You are required to post a similar video or story along with the proper URL as always and commenting on your peers work.  Good luck and I hope you enjoy this short video. Please post your own personal thanks to those heroic individuals that fought and served during WWII.

Blog #14 Here we go, we're at it again

Hi again cadets and thanks for sticking with the program this year. Your next to last task is to find yourself a Marching Cadence that you will use next week for your performance final for your LET1 year.  You have heard some of the ones from YouTube in class so you already know what they sound like.  You task this week is to post your own personal selection for the Marching Cadence that you are doing to perform.  Your must post the words for the cadence as well along with a video or audio link so that others may use the example to learn and practice for their performances as well. Remember to comment on your peer's work and good luck. You already know my favorite so have fun and I look forward to all of your good work. I hope that each and every one of you learned something new this year to motivate your during your upcoming summer.
