Who holds the position of MAST Deputy Battalion Commander?

The position of MAST Deputy Battalion Commander is held by Cadet Lieutenant Andrew Viggiano. This role is typically responsible for assisting in the leadership and management of the MAST program, which often includes oversight of cadets' training and activities, guiding lower-ranking cadets, and serving as a key liaison between the Battalion Commander and the rest of the unit. Thus, having a cadet in a leadership role such as Lieutenant reflects the expected rank and experience necessary to fulfill the responsibilities associated with that position effectively. The other candidates, while they may hold significant positions within the program, do not align with the specific requirements and ranking ideally suited for the MAST Deputy Battalion Commander role.
