NASHUA – Physi­cal education teacher P.J. Levesque recently presented Mrs. Glenda McFadden, principal of Nashua Catholic Regional Junior High School, the Patriot Level Award from the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve Program.

Levesque serves as a command sergeant major in the U.S. Army Reserve. The award was in recogni­tion of Nashua Catholic’s support while Levesque was on a monthlong train­ing mission at the Army’s National Training Center last spring.

"A lot has changed in my 27 years," Levesque said. "The relation­ship between employer and service member is dramatically different. Reserve duty is no longer one weekend a month and two weeks a year. Nashua Catholic is a tremendous supporter of my service."
