During WWII a total of 20,229 Aggies served in World War II, 14,123 served as officers and 953 died in service.
So more Aggies served in WW2 than what's currently enrolled at LSU

cool story
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.
