Chaplain (MAJ) Jerry Johnson graduated with honors from the U.S. Army’s Command and General Staff Officer School (CGSOC) at the Fort Belvoir, VA satellite campus on December 15, 2016. He finished the Intermediate Level Education — Common Core with a 3.98 GPA after a rigorous fifteen weeks of studying Army doctrine and tactics, joint military operations, national security strategic planning, military history, organizational leadership, Army force management, and military communication skills. The curriculum combined working in a staff group of fifteen with individual papers, projects, and examinations. This program is a mandatory component of an Army Major’s Professional Military Education and will enable Jerry to be eligible for his primary zone Lieutenant Colonel promotion board in the spring of 2018. Jerry is returning to his duties at Fort Belvoir Community Hospital, where he expects to remain until the summer of 2018. He thanks all SDB friends, especially Pastor Dave Taylor and the Central SDB family, for their prayers and support during this intense experience.
