The outfit is not only intent on producing moral character in each cadet, but is also intent on maintaining precision in all that we do. It is this effort and this focus that has led the outfit to be awarded the Hochmuth Award for Military Proficiency, as well as placing second for the General Moore Award in the spring semester of 2000.
Academics also play a great role in the outfit.
A-Battery was awarded second place for the Jouine Award for the same year, which is awarded to the outfits based upon scholastic achievements. For the Spring 2000 semester alone the grades proved to be quite remarkable. The outfit spends afternoons either physically training as a group, or playing various sports to keep each cadet physically fit. The outfit also engages in many intramural sports including flag football, basketball, indoor and outdoor soccer, and softball. It is this balance that has led to the recruitment of so many people throughout the years.
