Corps of Cadets pass in review
(Corps)
The Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets will welcome members of the Class of 1966 back to campus to celebrate their entrance into the Old Guard with a pass in review.
The parade will be on the Drillfield, centered on Burruss Hall. The regimental band the Highty-Tighties will play. Skipper, the Corps of Cadets cannon, will be fired twice.
Immediately following the parade, cadets will march back to the Upper Quad for a formal retreat ceremony. The regiment will be formed between Shanks, Major Williams, and Lane halls. The Color Guard will lower the flag, Skipper will fire, and the Highty-Tighties will play.
Everyone is welcome to watch these events. Those not in uniform should remove hats and place right hand over heart anytime the flag is raised or lowered or the National Anthem is played.
