C/SMSgt Brandon Fleming, C/SSgt Matthew Truitt and C/TSgt Kevin Rumbley were promoted to their new ranks in a ceremony conducted by Wicomico's Deputy Commander for Cadets, 1st Lt Zachary Mitchell. C/SSgt Truitt also received the Wright Brothers Award. Assisting Lt Mitchell was C/Lt Ryan Murray. The newly promoted cadets as well as the other squadron members were inspired by comments from CAP alumni Corporal Daniel Nicholson, USMC. He shared how his positive experience in the CAP prepared him for a military career. Corporal Nicholson, recently returned from a tour of duty in Afghanistan, served as a cadet in the Wicomico Composite Squadron for many years achieving the rank of cadet captain. He continues to support the squadron and cadet program when home on leave from his current duty assignment with the Second Marine Division at Camp Lejune, NC.
