Army Private Antonia Elena Navejas graduated from Basic Combat Training at Fort Sill, Lawton, Okla., as an honor graduate and received a Letter of Commendation.

The soldier's academic and military accomplishments were a direct result of energetic application of sound judgment and newly acquired technical knowledge. During the nine weeks of Basic Combat Training, she studied the Army mission and received instruction and training exercises in drill and ceremonies, Army history, core values and traditions, military courtesy abd military justice. Navejas, a multimedia illustrator, is the daughter of Ruben and Irene Navejas of Covington. She is a 2009 graduate of Kentwood High School, Covington.
