It's weird that yall always bring this up like no other schools had students go on to fight

quote:

During World War II, LSU was one of the top four schools producing officers for the U.S. Armed Forces. (The other schools were Texas A&M, West Point, and Annapolis). LSU had more than 5,000 former students serving as officers, including 16 who achieved the rank of Brigadier General or higher. In all, 12,000 individuals from LSU served, and over 500 died in this great conflict.


I guess you have to lean on something that happened 80 years ago to justify your military dress up traditions today

It’s always cringe. Especially when you realize the aggie fans screaming it the loudest for affirmation on an anonymous message board are the same people that never served themselves

No other schools in the country including thr military academies did to the extent Texas A&am. No other SEC schools contributed a fraction of officers that A&M commissioned . University of Texas didn’t commission a single officer durung WWII. Make fun of our sports teams, our beliefs if you will…but little ignorant pieces of shite like you, will not slander the deaths and service of tens of thousands of Aggies. Or the thousands presently serving.
