ROCKINGHAM — The General Henry William Harrington Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, proudly presented cadet Caydence Crump with the DAR Bronze Medal and certificate during the Richmond Senior High School Army JROTC annual Dining Out celebration on April 11, 2025.
A high school senior at Richmond Senior High School, Crump is an accomplished student and a member of the BETA Club, consistently earning A/B Honor Roll recognition throughout her academic career. Her dedication to excellence extends beyond the classroom, where she has demonstrated leadership, discipline, and patriotism as a JROTC cadet.
The DAR Bronze Medal is awarded to outstanding JROTC cadets who exemplify dependability, character, military discipline, leadership ability, and a patriotic understanding of JROTC training.
Since 1967, the DAR has recognized exceptional cadets across the nation, supporting the development of strong leaders committed to service.
Melissa Wall, regent of the General Henry William Harrington Chapter, praised Crump’s achievements:

Her commitment to academic excellence and service showcases her readiness to take on future challenges. We are honored to celebrate her accomplishments and wish her success as she continues her journey in the United States Air Force."
Following her graduation in June, Crump will be enlisting in the United States Air Force, where she plans to continue growing and making a meaningful impact on her life, her family, and her community.
NSDAR remains committed to fostering patriotism, education, and recognition of those who serve.
