Today, Georgia Military College celebrated the U.S. Army’s 251st Birthday with a ceremony honoring the proud history, traditions, and service of our nation’s Army.

We were honored to welcome Colonel Fred Van Horn, GMC’s Executive Vice President Emeritus, as our special guest speaker. A Vietnam War veteran, Purple Heart recipient, and 33-year Army veteran, Colonel Van Horn shared his experiences and reflections on the legacy of the Army and the values that continue to guide Soldiers today.

The celebration concluded with a cherished Army Birthday tradition — the ceremonial cutting of the cake. Representing the strength of the Army’s past, present, and future, Colonel Van Horn, the oldest Soldier present, presented the saber to Second Lieutenant Justin Cheatham-Merritt, the youngest Soldier present, and together they cut the cake.

Following the ceremony, Army veterans and currently serving Soldiers joined together for a group photo, honoring the generations of service and sacrifice that continue to uphold the Army’s legacy.

Thank you to all who have served and continue to serve. Happy 251st Birthday to the U.S. Army! 🇺🇸

Today, Georgia Military College proudly celebrates Flag Day and honors the American flag as a symbol of our nation’s history, values, and freedoms.

At GMC, respect for the flag is woven into our tradition of developing leaders of character. By teaching cadets the meaning behind our nation’s colors and the sacrifices made to preserve them, we help instill a sense of patriotism, service, and responsibility that will guide them throughout their lives.

On this Flag Day, we reflect on the principles of duty, honor, and country that the flag represents and express our gratitude to those who have defended them.

Today, we proudly celebrated the commissioning of our newest Second Lieutenants in the United States Army! 🇺🇸

After completing two years in Georgia Military College’s ROTC program, these cadets officially took the oath to serve as 2LTs in the U.S. Army, continuing GMC’s long tradition of developing leaders of character and service.

We were also honored to welcome guest speaker and Georgia Military College alumnus Class of 2000, Colonel Nate Stone, who shared words of encouragement and leadership with our graduating cadets. Before he was the Commander of Georgia's National Guard 48th Infantry Brigade, he was a Cadet at GMC, beginning his career the same as our new Second Lieutenants we celebrated today.
