My Father's speech @ St. John's Northwestern Military Academy

| | Comments (1)

An inspiring speech from my Dad at his school in Wisconsin.

It all started with this letter.


Victor E. Treviño - St. John's Northwestern Military Academy
January 29th, 2006
Old Boy Victor Treviño S'58 is a St. John's Northwestern Military Academy Distinguished Counselor, recipient of the Honored Old Boy of the Year Award, the Academy's highest alumni honor, and also served on the Academy Board of Trustees. He is a very highly respected businessman in Mexico and an inspiring symbol of St. John's Northwestern Military Academy's values in his home country.
On January 27, 2006, fifty years after being a new boy at St. John's, Mr. Treviño honors us by returning to the Noble Victory Memorial Chapel to address our Corps of Cadets. His powerful message reinforces that being an SJNMA cadet and alumnus means belonging to something bigger and better than oneself, being a part of a unique fraternity of friends thoughout one's lifetime: Amici, Usque, ad Finem. He illustrates how the adages of our Beacon, 'Play the Game', 'The Game's Not Over until the Whistle Blows', 'Carry On', and 'Don't Be a Mollycoddle' are principles that have guided him thoughout his life and that will guide all St. John's Northwestern cadets.
