On December 8, 2023, the department celebrated the graduation ceremony marking the end of the 2023 academic year for the Young Brigadier of Value (JBV) Project.
This momentous occasion saw the participation of several key figures from the 1st Company of the 3rd Battalion based in Sobral, including Lieutenant Lacerda, Cabo Maurício, and soldiers L. Júnior, Eduardo, and Ismael.
The graduation was not just a formal event but also a family affair, as graduates were joined by their families and mentors.
The ceremony underscored the successful completion of the program by the young participants.

He highlighted that the young graduates would carry the lessons learned throughout their lives, fostering a new worldview in aspects of citizenship, morality, civility, and other values.
