Past Scholarship Recipient - Cole Perra
2022-23 and 2023-24 NHGCSA Scholarship recipient Cole Perra has deployed with his Massachusetts Army National Guard unit. Cole had completed 3 semesters at the University of Massachusetts Amherst pursuing a plant and soil science degree before receiving active orders with the 1st Battalion, 181st Infantry Regiment. The deployment is for a year, with 9 months in Iraq, primarily at Erbil Airbase. Cole is a squad automatic weapon operator and is assigned to Aerial Quick Reaction Force (QRF) and base security. A QRF unit is on standby whenever mounted or aerial patrols are off base in case someone needs assistance. After his return stateside in December, Cole will resume studies at UMass and plans to return to the maintenance team at Abenaqui Country Club in May 2025.
