Cadets of the Ole War Skule

President’s Day, ROTC Awards

LSU paid tribute to its military heritage on April 19 at the President’s Day Parade and Change of Command Ceremony at the LSU War Memorial on the Parade Ground. Following the parade, America’s future military officers in the Corps of Cadets were honored for their accomplishments at the seventh annual Joint ROTC Awards Ceremony at the LSU Student Union. The program was followed by a reception for the honorees and their parents and guests. The LSU Corps of Cadets includes the Army and Air Force ROTC units at LSU and the Naval ROTC unit at Southern University.
