Only the service academies can claim more World War I and II enlistees than LSU. LSU was also founded as a military academy and seminary. Despite this, LSU doesn’t steal valor and play dress-up.
Not sure why tamu tries to claim a military pedigree for its run-of-the-mill ROTC program.

Typical LSU liar. 5,000 LSU people in WWII...20,000+ Aggies. Aggies continue to serve all over the world in the military.

Approximately 20,000 A&M students and former students fought in World War II, 14,000 of them serving as officers. According to the Corps guidebook, more Aggies served as officers than any other school, “including the combined totals of the United States Military Academy and United States Naval Academy.”
