The U.S. Army has a newly commissioned officer from Guam. Second Lieutenant Dianna Le graduated from the U.S. Military Academy with a Bachelor of Science degree on Saturday, May 27, 2007.

The Military Academy has prepared her well for her career and I believe she will excel as a military officer,” Congresswoman Bordallo said. “She now joins the thousands of dedicated sons and daughters from Guam serving in our Armed Forced around the world. We thank all of those who wear the uniform for their service to our nation.”

2LT Dianna Le, a graduate of St. John’s School in Tumon, is the daughter of Phat V. Le and Lylan T. Nguyen of Mangilao, Guam.
