STEPHENVILLE Eleven Tarleton State University ROTC Texan Battalion cadets were commissioned second lieutenants in the U.S. Army in a May 13 ceremony on the Stephenville campus.
Cadets must complete their undergraduate degree, including a military science curriculum, and leader development training to be commissioned.
Col. Sean Corrigan, U.S. Army (retired), a 1988 graduate of the U.S. Military Academy and currently Executive Vice President for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, keynoted the ceremony.
“You are stepping into an Army that is under-prepared right now because of COVID. You can’t go to the range virtually, so you have a major task ahead of you training troops,” he advised the new officers.

The Long Beach Police Department said in a news release that detectives detained the suspect, a 17-year-old boy, on Feb. 10 at a Los Angeles juvenile detention center where he was being held on an unrelated charge. He was transferred to Long Beach jail this week and booked on suspicion of murder, police said.
The juvenile is linked to the May 16 killing of 22-year-old Austin Thai who was fatally shot in Central Long Beach just after midnight while sitting inside his vehicle, according to the LBPD. The shooting occurred near the intersection of 17th Street and Gaviota Avenue.
