Local man graduates ROTC leadership course
On 7/16/2007
Contributed by: Army & Air Force Hometown News on 8/23/2007

Bryan C. Cercy graduated from the Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) Leader Development and Assessment Course, also known as "Operation Warrior Forge," at Fort Lewis, Tacoma, Wash.

The 33 days of training provide the best possible professional training and evaluation for all cadets in the aspects of military life, administration and logistical support. Although continued military training and leadership development is included in the curriculum, the primary focus of the course is to develop and evaluate each cadet's officer potential as a leader by exercising the cadet's intelligence, common sense, ingenuity and physical stamina. The cadet command assesses each cadet's performance and progress in officer traits, qualities and professionalism while attending the course.

Cadets in their junior and senior year of college must complete the leadership development course. Upon successful completion of the course, the ROTC program, and graduation from college, cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army, National Guard, or Reserve.

Cercy finished in the top 10 percent of the 4,000 cadets who attended the course over the summer

He is a senior at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Cercy is also the Battalion Commander of his unit at CU and is expected to commission on May 9, 2008, as an active duty officer.

He is the son of Jeff and Martha Cercy of Lakewood.

Cercy is a 2004 graduate of Columbine High School in Littleton.
