175th Military Police BN NCO of the Quarter.
Left Command Sergeant Major Stratton, the 175th MP BN Sergeant Major, congratulates SGT Daniels for
being selected as NCO of the Quarter. Earlier in the month SGT Daniels represented 3rd Platoon for the
2175th MP CO NCO of the quarter. SGT Daniels spent countless hours refreshing in areas of Military His-
tory, Drill and Ceremony, First Aid, Uniforms, Weapons, Land Navigation, Army Programs, Army Leader-
ship, Physical Training, etc to name a few. SGT Daniels not only won the Company and BN NCO of the quar-
ter but represented the 175th MP BN for the Camp As Sayliyah NCO of the quarter. This is no small feat as
he did so why still maintaining his current mission requirements as a MP Team Leader. SGT Daniels embod-
ies the Be, Know, Do character of an NCO. He r definitely displayed the beginning of the Noncommissioned
Officer Creed, No one is more professional than I, I am a Noncommissioned Officer, a leader of Soldiers! .
Congratulations on a job well done!!!
