Fish Drill Team

Fish Drill Team Display Case

The Fish Drill Team competes in precision drill competitions around the country each year. They represent the Corps of Cadets and Texas A&M in these meets and have gone on to win the national championship almost every year since they were created in 1946. The team was begun when the freshmen were moved from the main campus to deal with the overcrowding and hazing issues that followed World War Two and the return of war veterans to the A&M campus.

The Fish Drill Team was disbanded in 1997 due to senior leadership problems. The organization has been under evaluation and reconstruction by the Commandant's office and university officials for over four years and has been reinstated this semester (Spring 2002).
