Accepting the oath
Accepting the oath to become a Cadet is the first step in of accepting the challenge of a military career.
I chose to become a member of the West Virginia Mountaineer Battalion because I love my country and feel an obligation to serve my country in a military fashion. My service is performed in honor of my parents who both served in the United States Army. In addition to learning the skills of a leader, my education is being fully funded, which allow me to pursue other dreams.
