One of our own, George Blue, recently completed an intense Air Force ROTC Field Training in Alabama. This rigorous program is designed to challenge cadets physically, mentally, and emotionally, preparing them for a future in the United States Air Force. George’s experience was no different, and he returned with stories of growth, camaraderie, and perseverance.

When asked about his time in Alabama, George reflected, “AFROTC Field Training was a great opportunity for me to grow as a leader, more effectively work in a team, and prepare myself to enter the United States Air Force after college.” His words highlight the profound impact that this training had on his development as both a leader and a future officer.

His brother, Brandon Sorensen, expressed the awe many of us felt, saying, “So proud of you, brother. 3 weeks … That’s seriously insane.”

George, ever humble, reassured us, “Nah, it flies by. it is also a good life: workout, 3 good meals a day, plenty of sleep.” This succinct summary reminds us that even in the toughest circumstances, there are elements of routine and stability that keep one grounded. 

George’s experience in Alabama is a testament to the resilience and determination that characterize members of Sigma Phi Epsilon. His journey through Field Training not only prepares him for a future in the Air Force but also sets a powerful example for all of us in the chapter. We are incredibly proud of George and his accomplishments and look forward to supporting him as he continues to pursue his dreams.

Congratulations, George Blue, on completing this significant milestone. Your dedication and hard work are an inspiration to us all.
