A new chapter begins. Congratulations to our newest Corporals!

Each of these officers voluntarily participated in a comprehensive and competitive promotional process to earn the rank of Corporal. They were evaluated through a written examination, an assessment panel, and an anonymous written exercise designed to demonstrate their knowledge, communication skills, judgment, and problem-solving abilities.

Putting yourself forward for promotion requires preparation, vulnerability, and resilience, and every candidate should be commended for their willingness to step up and accept that challenge.

Congratulations, Corporals. We are proud of you, and we look forward to seeing the leaders you become.
