Default Howdy fellow drillers

My name is Bill Owen and I currently live in Daytona Beach, FL. I have be drilling for over 6 years now, an began has a freshmen in high school

In high school I was able to earn my way into Navy Nationals and the National High School Drill Team Championships. I was the commanding officer and armed drill team commander of my Navy JROTC unit.

After high school I began learning bayonet drill. Since then I have been competing professionally, twice in Pro America and once in the International World Drill Championships (ISIS), each time finishing just outside of top 3 placement.

Currently I am in college attending the University of North Florida with the goal of becoming a United States Marine Corps officer. I also work for event manager Sports Network International producing the finest JROTC competitions on the planet!

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Are you currently in an NROTC unit, or do you plan on going to OCS after you earn your degree?
