[Aggiesgigem]

[delmzz127]

[av8er41891]

LOOK AT THEM BOOTS!

[Oldag75]

One will note that the Texas Aggies are intellegent enough to march in

FRONT of the horses !!!

[Oldag75]

They are the best in the entire world. The Fightin' Texas Aggie Band is a Texas state treasure, and the Aggie Corps of Cadets is a Texas monument to the devotion of our state's young people. There is nothing better than to be a fish in the Corps.... and nothing more sublime to be a Senior in the Corps, wearing those boots.

Thank you American456789 and latter678 for your posts. You inspired me to do research. I found US Code, Title 10, Subtitle A, Part III, Chapter 103, 2111a. Support for senior military colleges. Under section f, it lists the six senior military colleges. Texas A&M is listed first. The other five are Norwich University, The Virginia Military Institute, The Citadel, Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, and North Georgia College & State University.

@joybound14 lol you didn't have to do all that.

[joybound14]

@latter678 LOL ... actually, I found it fun to research and am a huge fan of TAMU and the Corps - this is something I should have known. LOL.....thanks again!

[American456789]

TAMU is a Senior Military College, one of six total in the United States, and one of the largest to boot. Senior Military Colleges are institutions like The Citadel and VMI. The other type of military colleges are Federal Service Academies like West Point.

[latter678]

Actually TAMU is a Senior Military College. It has a full-time ROTC Corp of Cadets.

This is not a military academy, this is the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets. One of many contributing factors that makes the Aggie 12th Man unique from most college campuses.

@s3dh3k It actually is a senior military collge.

[bluesmez4]

@s3dh3k Well... we are considered a senior military academy.

[joybound14]

Thank you! It gave me goose bumps while there. It was amazing to see the sheer number of 1900 cadets marching down Congress. I appreciate you viewing.
