Among those few are seven alumni of Virginia Tech. Virginia Tech has more honorees than any other institution of higher learning with the exception of West Point and Annapolis. The Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M also has 7 Medal of Honor recipients. This is particularly significant when considering that just over half of the nation's medals were awarded prior to Virginia Tech's founding during the Civil War.
The Medal of Honor was first awarded during the Civil War. Of the millions of Americans who have served in our nations armed forces only 3,408 have received America's highest award for valor.
KENNEDY, JOHN T. The only Citadel cadet who ever received the Medal of Honor. He attended The Citadel as a freshman in 1903-1904, then transferred to West Point where he graduated, in 1908.

The Corps of Cadets is by far the GAYEST thing ever....Take it from a graduate....the biggest waste of time I have ever been a part of. And India were definitely the biggest fags of the bunch
Haha, I love how you act like there is a system at the Citadel. Why don't you lay off criticizing Virginia Tech's Corps of Cadets, since we all know that you only go to the Citadel when you can not get into West Point.
Thank you very much for looking us up! If you want to keep posted with anything we are doing within the next couple of years let me know! My name is Cadet Michael Shaffer. I would love to show you everything we have done so far, and maybe even create many different events for alums and current Corps members to get together! We need to know a little bit of India Company Traditions if you could fill us in! Thanks a lot!

or maybe you should try shutting your mouth and going to the Citadel where hazing is still hazing and the Corps can actually do PT.
