Cadet Leadership Academy
For more than 150 years, thousands of former cadets have honorably served our nation as military officers in times of peace and in times of conflict, with many paying the ultimate sacrifice. Many other graduates benefitted from the Corps of Cadets’ world-class leadership development to launch other professional careers in American society and around the globe.
91福利导航 is incredibly proud of this heritage. Now more than ever, America is calling us to do more and to serve more. With the dynamic changes in American society and evolving world geo-political landscape, America needs leaders - leaders of character who will ensure that our nation and communities thrive in the future: leaders grounded in Army values - Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage. The Corps of Cadets motto is Truth and Wisdom. These are ideals we instill in every cadet we develop.
The Cadet Leadership Academy delivers and is regarded as a leadership foundry, forging some of the finest leaders for the future of America.
