SMYRNA, TN — New York Army National Guard Sgt. Matthew Scarlett, a Rome resident, was the Distinguished Honor Graduate at a Military Police Advanced Leaders Course conducted by the Tennessee Army National Guard in Nashville from July 5 to August 5.
Scarlett was one of 48 Soldiers from 29 different states who completed the intensive four-week training program focused on advanced military police techniques and leadership.
The students took courses covering areas like tactical patrolling, command post operations, traffic accident investigation, evidence collection, and anti-terrorism.
"The training the students conducted greatly enhanced their tactical and garrison policing skills, but the main focus was on leadership," said Master Sgt. Danta James, the Chief Instructor for the Military Police Advanced Leaders Course. "Each student was given multiple opportunities to lead their classmates in various drills as well as participate in classes and training that prepares them for challenging roles as squad leaders and platoon sergeants."
Tennessee, Connecticut and Missouri National Guard's offer the training.
Scarlett, who enlisted in the New York Army National Guard in 2011, originally served in the 107th Military Police Company. He transferred to the 827th Engineer Company in 2013.
Since 2016 he has served as a member of the New York Army National Guard's Recruiting and Retention Battalion.
Scarlett has attended the Basic Military Police Course, and several recruiting courses.
His awards include the Army Commendation Medal, the Army Achievement Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, and the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the Non-Commissioned Officer Professional Development Ribbon and the Army Reserve Components Achievement Medal.
