Bravo Zulu to the newest 1,976 Midshipmen who completed New Student Indoctrination this Summer.

Across three iterations, these Midshipmen were tested physically and mentally--proving that they have what it takes to join NROTC’s proud legacy of leadership.

As we celebrate 100 years of NROTC, we honor a century of forging Officers who are resilient in spirit, united in purpose, and ready to lead our battle-ready Sailors and Marines.
