Sulphur Springs Composite Squadron (TX-450)

Our Motto is "We Rise Above" derived from the three meanings in latin that all translate to this one phrase.  

We Rise up in the morning early and energized to face the challenges of each new day.

We Rise  to the challenges climbing up and advancing our skills and character daily.

We Rise Above our peers to excel in everything we place our focus on.
