Patriot Battalion Army ROTC

Over the summer, we will be highlighting cadets as they pursue different academic, military, and extracurricular endeavors. Our first two are CDTs Lambert and Rosado, who participated in Providence College’s Smith Fellowship and Maymester to Rome, respectively.

CDT Lambert interned for six weeks with the Dominicans for Justice and Peace, a human rights non-profit, in Geneva, Switzerland.

CDT Rosado (right in both pictures) participated in a Providence College Maymester - one week in the classroom, then two weeks abroad. While he was in Italy, he and his classmates explored ancient Roman sites to better understand the cultural and historical impact.

Make sure to keep an eye out for more cadet highlights!

We are halfway through and are proud to announce some awards that were given over the weekend at graduation. Congratulations are in order for:

On Friday, May 15th 2026, Patriot Battalion was proud to commission fourteen Second Lieutenants surrounded by friends, family, and mentors. These new officers have worked so hard throughout their four year careers in the Patriot Battalion and we cannot wait to see what their futures hold for them. Congratulations to the class of 2026!

Last Friday, our cadets had the last PT of the year! This included a 2.5 mile fun run, a class tug of war competition, and a dip in the lake. We are so proud of how much our cadets have grown over the year and cannot wait to see what summer has in store for Patriot Battalion.

At LLab today, Cadets had the opportunity to fly in Black Hawks thanks to the RI National Guard!

At FTX, while our MSIs/MSIIs were completing the obstacle course, MSIIIs completed their final lanes in preparation for their time at Fort Knox this summer!

Cadets completed their last STX lane lab of the semester in a raid lane. See you next year Bryant!
