Cal State Fullerton’s Titan Battalion brought forth two newly commissioned Second Lieutenants on December 16, 2023:

  • 2LT Eric Huynh – CA Army National Guard – Aviation
  • 2LT Mark Cuozzo – Active Duty – Engineer Branch Detail Infantry

Both worked very hard over the course of their 4 year journey to get to where they are today. With the knowledge gained through ROTC, both will now serve as the next generation of leaders within their respective components!
