“Fighting Eagles” Battalion Color Guard Supports Eastern Washington University Graduation Ceremony

This past Saturday our Eastern Washington University (EWU) Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) “Fighting Eagles” battalion Color Guard team had the honor of presenting our nation’s colors during the two separate graduation ceremonies that day.  Both graduation ceremonies were held at a packed Spokane Arena in downtown Spokane.

The Color Guard led the processions of students and faculty out into the Spokane Arena.  The Color Guard then presented the colors on the stage as the EWU Choir sung the national anthem.
