Memorial Day

 On May 26, 2008, the CBA brigade marched in the Memorial Day Parade in down town Albany.  The brigade marched in order to honor and remember all those who had lost their lives in war or any other struggle.  They processed down Central Avenue into the heart of Albany, where they all saluted the parade’s reviewing party, consisting of veterans, Mayor Jennings, and other honorary guests standing on the steps of the state Education Building.  The CBA brigade was well represented under the command of Cadet Lieutenant Colonel and Brigade Executive Officer Chris Hladik and battalion commanders Cadet Lieutenant Colonel T.J. Lane of first battalion, Cadet Lieutenant Colonel JJ Figge of third battalion, and Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Chris Schultz of second battalion.
