VMI Corps of Cadets - Inaugural Parade January 20, 2017 

From Scotland too, cool name BTW 😉

Or, more commonly Ulster Scots . . . .

A real military tradition compared to what?

@@garciagar64 you really are a simpleton, aren't you?

defenders of the republic

What you mean an other civil war, traitors not this young man, but all the millions looking this pictures and dream to win in Gettysburg.

Good luck with that. Remember, the military is the social experiment for the government.

@@dotjai330 When was the last time the United States (as a Republic) needed to be defended?

Norwich Forever

Let's see. Are SNCOs involved in any way with military colleges/universities?

@@kevinphillips150 Absolutely. There are experienced SNCOs in all ROTC departments. My SNCO when I was cadet was the CSM of the 4th Ranger Training Bn who was also Vietnam Vet.

If only the First Classmen could wear the high boots!

The ANV never looked this good lol.. but man, i'd give anything to see the actual ANV march by.

@@stevewixom9311 The dirty tired looking one's just came off the line. This parade is clean and fresh bringing forth the fighting spirit of those who have just come off the line. This is general Lee's army.

It would be more accurate to say this is Jackson's army, but yeah it'd be a crime not to include Lee somewhere in the mix.

First Troop Philadelphia City Cavalry, one of the oldest continuous military units in the American Army.

@@dk8296 The pride of Philadelphia!

its Virginia Military Institute

Yes! I lived in New Market when I was growing up

To get an excellent education and learn order, discipline and self respect.

Disciple, challenge, and so much more.

@@georgiamule It seems there are a number of private and public institutions of higher education (in the United States) that have taught students from around the world for hundreds of years without having anything to do with the military. The Ivey League seems to have some. And those schools not in the Ivey League but qualified to be.

@@kevinphillips150 Ivy League schools are, beyond question, excellent institutions of higher learning. But this thread is addressing other excellent universities that also provide military training for those who want it and are qualified. You may not know that the majority of our nation’s military officers come from such schools, including the service academies at West Point, Annapolis, Colorado Springs and New London. The young men and women who elect to attend one of the academies or another university with a military program, have elected to get a university degree and a commission in the US military.

Excuse me? Bringing racism into this? There's literally so many, look again.

All cadets are selected for admission based on academic qualification.

The real military? Compared to what?

@@kevinphillips150 to what West Point produces

@@johnwaffleh2p70 true

In the civil war that is what they were…they won the last victory of the South in New Market, Va

Hollywood

What is your point with " Nicaragua"?

Haven't been allowed to play Dixie for over 40 years-- might "offend" someone...

Why? We're not a Confederate school, we're an American school

They used to years ago…VMI is most famous for winning the last victory for the South at the Battle of New Market, Va

Their student body is international, not just southern. Read more.

Actually the Roman Legion.

Jackass, you’re not funny, just placing your ignorance on display for all to see.
