SAN ANTONIO – (May 25, 2021) Naval Aviator Capt. Davis Koss, of Orange Park, Fla., chairman of Naval Science at the University of Texas, talks with students of Highlands High School’s Army Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps program about qualifications for the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) Scholarship during a presentation ceremony held at the school. Koss traveled to Military City USA to award twin brothers Cadets Lt. Col. Kalvin and 1st Lt. Kelvin Rodriguez Rivera with NROTC Scholarships in the amount of $180,000 each. The brothers will be attending the University of Texas in the fall majoring in aerospace engineering. The Navy offers several scholarship programs to help pay for school so a person can enjoy a normal college life and focus on their studies before starting a career in the Navy. Through these programs, a person will enter the Navy in a leadership position as a commissioned officer. Officers in the Navy have responsibilities that include anything from low-level management to the highest levels of command. For more information about the NROTC Scholarship program, visit www.navy.com. Navy Talent Acquisition Group (NTAG) San Antonio’s area of responsibility includes two Talent Acquisition Onboarding Centers (TAOC) which manage more than 34 Navy Recruiting Stations and Navy Officer Recruiting Stations spread throughout 144,000 square miles of Central and South Texas territory.
