To recruit, educate, retain, empower, develop, and commission qualified Senior ROTC Cadets that embody both the Warrior Ethos and the Army Values, with capacity to exemplify the Army Profession. Partner with all Louisiana Junior ROTC Programs in order to produce citizens of extraordinary character and competence for service to our nation.

OBJECTIVE
