New Battalion Commander NamedEffective April 1, 2013, the Bruin Battalion is under new cadet leadership. Cadet/LTC Daniel Koch has been selected to succeed Cadet/LTC Joseph Swogger as the next Bruin Battalion Commander. “I am from a military family, my father was a marine until last year. He retired and continues to do contracting work at Quantico. Last year when the program started I was a platoon commander and then began working for the S-5. I attended camp over the summer as well as a series of drill meets. I am committed to the values of justice and honesty above all else. I believe this program can achieve great things with proper leadership and commitment,” says Cadet/LTC Koch.
