MONARCH ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT: VICE ADMIRAL DION ENGLISH ’00

🇺🇸 A Legacy of Leadership. A Lifetime of Service.

Meet ODU alumnus Vice Admiral Dion English ’00, whose distinguished U.S. Navy career reflects a commitment to leadership, strategic thinking, and service to our nation.

As Director for Logistics (J-4) on the Joint Staff, Vice Admiral English helped support military readiness and the logistical capabilities essential to joint military operations.

In August 2026, he retired from the U.S. Navy, marking an important milestone following a career dedicated to serving our country.

Today, we celebrate his accomplishments, his service, and the impact of Monarchs who lead and make a difference far beyond campus.

Congratulations, Vice Admiral English, on your retirement, and thank you for your service!

Once a Monarch, Always a Monarch!

An amazing afternoon was spent at the Norfolk Festevents Virginia Fall W**e Festival 🍷🍂🦁 We drank delicious w**e, connected, and recharged for the week. Like we always say…ODU alums are the best!

THE MONARCH SPIRIT NEVER QUITS.

When life changed the game, ODU alumnus Jeff Belcher found a new way to play.

A former Old Dominion University Division I tennis player, Jeff overcame a life-threatening illness that cost him both legs below the knees and most of his fingers. Today, he’s back on the court, running 5Ks with prosthetic blades, serving as a national ambassador for Amputee Blade Runners, and pursuing his next goal in Para-Standing Tennis.

His journey is a powerful testament to the resilience, determination and never-quit spirit of a Monarch.

💙“When the rules change, you don’t quit the game. You find a new way to play it.”

🇺🇸🚁 You heard them in the skies over Norfolk, now hear from them live and in person🍦🍰

Before cruising over S.B. Ballard Stadium for tonight’s matchup against Georgia Southern, the all-ODU flight crew from HELSEACOMBATRON-2 (HSC-2 Fleet Angels) stopped by the studio! 🎙️

Special thanks to:

🦁 Commander Brandon ‘Brawndo’ Oswald ‘07
🦁 Lieutenant Dylan ‘Dory’ Cox ‘19

Recorded earlier this week on Oct 13, we talk about their time at ODU, what goes into executing a stadium flyover, and the pride of repping from the cockpit. Special thanks to the ODUGlobal crew and Enrollment, Transformation, & Technology at ODU for hosting us in their epic studio space!
