Our cadets from the Model European Organizations course traveled to Washington, D.C., to compete in the 2025 International Model NATO Competition, sharpening skills essential for future warfighters.
 
They went head-to-head with 25 colleges from five countries, proving their readiness, adaptability, and #WarriorEthos mindset by earning two Superior Performer awards!🎖️👏

Through leadership development, strategic thinking, and cultural competence, cadets gained valuable insights into international relations and military diplomacy.

During their trip, they:
✅ Met with alumni on Capitol Hill
✅ Visited the Secretary of the Air Force International Affairs office at the Pentagon
✅ Engaged with the Polish military delegation at the Polish Embassy 🇵🇱
