POCOMOKE CITY Two awarded ROTC bronze medals
The General Levin Winder Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution recently awarded ROTC bronze medals to graduating students in Junior ROTC programs at Worcester County high schools.
The DAR has awarded ROTC medals since 1967 because the ROTC is an important source of trained officers for our armed forces.
Recipients must have demonstrated loyalty and patriotism, and earned a record of military and scholastic achievement during their participation in an ROTC program.
Local recipients were senior Bryanna Hall, Pocomoke High School and William Bowen, Snow Hill High School. The General Levin Winder Chapter also presented each medal recipient with a $50 United States Savings Bond.

I think that is so wonderful for those two students. They should be so very proud of themselves and I hope they excel in everything they attempt in life.
