On Thursday, December 6, 2018, the Naval JROTC cadets of the Oak Ridge High School\u2019s Wildcat Company formed up for their first official Annual Military Inspection ceremony.\u00a0 Led by senior and Cadet Company Commanding Officer, Rhiannon Lucas, the cadets took formation in the Wildcat Arena for Personnel Inspection by Chief Warrant Officer Johnston, the Inspecting Officer for the ceremony.\u00a0 Twenty one cadets scored \u201cOutstanding\u201d on the personnel inspection and were presented an award for Exemplary Personal Appearance during the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Following the personnel inspection, the cadets then formed up to begin the ceremony.\u00a0 Some of the Distinguished Guests who attended the ceremony were TN State Rep. John Ragan, Dr. Bruce Borchers, several school board and city council members, Mrs. Terry Frank, Mr. Gene Sievers of CNS Y-12, Mrs. Jessica Steed of Oak Ridge Public Education Foundation and Mr. Martin McDonald.<\/p>\n

Those in attendance were treated to a demonstration by the Unarmed Drill team, led by Cadet Senior Chief Lillie Mullins and the Armed Drill team, led by Cadet Lieutenant Alex Coones.\u00a0 During the ceremony, each of the five platoons of cadets and the color guard did a \u201cPass in Review\u201d saluting the Inspecting Officer and distinguished guests.<\/p>\n

Something very special about our ceremony was recognizing Elizabeth O\u2019Toole as the Cadet of the Month for November and promoting Cadet Beatrice Shea to Cadet Petty Officer Second Class.\u00a0 Cadet Shea was selected above her peers by Mr. McDonald for her exemplary appearance while in uniform, exceptional performance of her duties in ROTC and all of her other classes.<\/p>\n

All cadets did a phenomenal job and looked amazing.\u00a0 Furthermore, the ceremony was made sweeter with the beautiful performance of the Oak Ridge High School Chorus Ensemble, which performed the National Anthem and sang a \u201cTribute to the Armed Forces.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cMs. Ragan does an awesome job with the chorus department and it was our privilege to have them come and be a part of our monumental event\u201d, said Chief Ryan Nicholls.\u00a0 The Wildcat Company wishes to thank everyone who attended and supports the program.<\/p>\n
