ROTC cadets accomplish mission
JACKIE JOHNSON
The Gramblinite
Grambling State University
Tiger Battalion recognizes five
Army ROTC cadets for Contracts and Scholarships. The
Army ROTC cadets worked
hard through various obstacles
to receive this accomplishment.
The cadets traveled to Ft.
Knox, Kentucky to complete
Cadet Leadership Training.
They passed the APFT fitness test and met academic
standards that the GSU Tiger
Battalion required.
Once cadets are contracted
and scholarship they start
receiving money stipends
that can help them financially
throughout college. Once the
cadets signed the contract it
is mandatory that they are
there to attend and participate
in Army ROTC events on
campus.
The cadets are passionate
about their future and what the
army has to offer to them.
“I feel good to be contracted and now with scholarship,
I know once I graduate
