 Pacific Guardians, I'm Command Sergeant Major Rowley, and I'd like to talk to you today about the Patriot Master Gunner Course that we have going on in Okinawa, hosted by 1188. You might have seen a lot of the social media work we've done on it, read some of the articles, maybe you've seen the course yourself. What I'd like to talk to you about is the importance of this course and why we're hosting it down here. This is the premier Air Defense School for 14 Echo and 14 Tango Soldiers. This is the launching pad for our Warrant Officer Program, and there is a high correlation between soldiers graduating this course and promotion in the senior NCO ranks. So to all you young soldiers out there across the brigade, I encourage you to start educating yourself about the Patriot Master Gunner Course and start preparing yourself to attend. As your career goes on, you'll have opportunities to separate yourself, to make yourself stand out amongst the group. If you have the opportunity to attend the class, please do so. Study hard for it, get ready for it, learn as much as you can about your MOS, be it 14 Echo, 14 Tango, learn as much as you can about Patriot as a whole. It'll only serve to make you a better Senior Non-Commission Officer, Warrant Officer, whatever career path you might choose. This is absolutely something that discriminates the best of the best, and I want you to start preparing today for this course. Even if you are just a junior enlisted soldier who's been in the Army a few months, it's never too early to start studying, learning, mastering your craft, understanding your job, training, getting ready to be the absolute technical and tactical expert that can advise your commanders, that can train young soldiers, that can employ our weapons system to the best of its capability. So if you have any questions about the Patriot Master Gunner course, please feel free to talk to your leadership, talk to your standardization team, reach out to the schoolhouse, or give me a call, send me an email. I'll tell you everything I know about it and we'll do everything we can to get you prepared. Appreciate your time, thanks for all you do, by valor and power.
