Operation Order
I. SITUATION
a. Enemy Forces: Oklahoma State Cowboys.
b. Friendly Forces: Fightin’ Texas Aggies
II. MISSION
The Corps of Cadets will march-in on Thursday, March 5th , 2009 to Reed Arena to support our women’s basketball team in their last home game.
III. EXECUTION
Commander’s Intent: My intent is that the Aggie Corps uphold its duty and show its support for the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Women’s Basketball team in their final home game of the season. I expect cadets to be enthusiastic, stay for the entirety of the game, and to only request excusal from the march-in for immediate scholastic priorities (e.g. class, test the following day, etc). If cadets are unable to stay for the entire game, it is better that they do not march-in at all. Our conduct and presence at the game should uphold the highest standards of discipline and professionalism, as well as reflect our commitment to our fellow Aggies and the Aggie Spirit. We will maintain an attitude of respect and good sportsmanship throughout the game.
