gentlemen um have a a special friend who's here to do a presentation this is lieutenant colonel retired eric lowey he is in charge of what is known as the united states military academy field force which is an organization of retired uh west point graduates who
basically are in the area looking for that next generation of leaders to attend the united states military academy since i've been here is he has personally assisted carissa swanson jake nosu uh andrew little hales and i'm hoping saraphina and cavarro to get into
united states military academy here next year or the year after uh i've known eric since 1998 we served when i was on active duty as an adviser at fort dixs we also served together in 2003 um supporting mobilization of units going to iraq and afghanistan out of
fort dixs and all over the east coast uh in his capacity as the field force commander for south jersey he's here to to basically uh give a a thank you and a presentation mr cicola could you come forward please
thanks al yes sir so i just wanted to just a quick background to in addition to what uh al just said um so in my role as with helping the uh congressional district 2 applicants to west point go
through the process and you know the application process is a year-long thing uh one of the things that is required for every applicant is that they have to complete a physical fitness test and it's not the typical army physical fitness test u it's called the candidate
fitness assessment uh whatever academy they're going to it's the same test so you know when when when uh applicants are applying to more than one academy they only have to take the test once so that's nice but anyway uh the test uh consists of six events and it requires a
gymnasium and a track you know in order to get the test done so um about 10 years ago roughly uh one of the delc applicants to west point was working you know i was working with with
that um applicant and uh they mentioned to colonel flood that yeah uh you know colonel lo is my field force rep for my west point application and he said colonel loey i know him so the nice thing was we set up to do the candidate
fitness assessment here at deli for the deli um applicant as well as inviting a couple others from other schools and at that point is when i asked uh colonel flood if it would be possible uh for
deli to be a sponsor location going forward whether or not we had applicants from deli that year or not uh for me to be able to give the candidate fitness test here um you know for for the applicants so the nice thing was that
you know al talked to uh the staff and the principal and the other folks that needed to be uh uh you know consulted on that and everybody was nice enough and gracious enough to agree that we can do that so for the last 10 years you know we've been conducting the test and you
know not only did colonel flood help set that up uh but he also helps me run it as well so i appreciate that very much and one of the things was that when the director of admissions at west point uh found out that and the director's name
is colonel lee right now but when he found out that um we have deli as a sponsor school for the cfa um he uh he had this certificate of appreciation uh written up and uh i took care of framing
it and all that so i'd like to well i don't need the glasses the font is big enough so let me just read this uh so this is uh united states military academy west point directorate of admissions certificate of appreciation this certificate of appreciation is
presented to the staff of deli regional high school for your long-standing support to the united states military academy admissions directorate by allowing our admissions field force representative lieutenant colonel retired eric loey to use your gym and track facilities annually to conduct the
candidate fitness assessment for applicants to west point and to the other servicemies this important admissions requirement is a critical component in getting applicants qualified for entrance into west point and we are very grateful for your
continued support to our mission of educating training and inspiring the next generation of leaders for the army in the nation signed rance a lee colonel us army director of admissions thank you very much
