"Let us Bestow the Highest Honor"
OUR MISSION
Our primary mission is to provide military funeral honors for Aggie veterans, while also supporting the families of distinguished members of the Texas A&M community and others when requested and authorized. Above all, we strive to bring comfort to grieving families by honoring their loved ones with humility, excellence, and the timeless traditions of military service. It is our privilege to stand in tribute to those who have faithfully served their country, their community, and the Aggie family.
WHY AMC WAS ESTABLISHED
In 2006, it was made known to the Corps of Cadets that there were seven World War II veterans who would not be receiving military honors from their branch and had requested a cadet presence at their funerals. Seniors were called upon to fulfill these seven services. After the seventh funeral, the cadets decided to make a special unit of the corps dedicated to performing more services because they saw how important it was to the families involved.
"Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it."
Proverbs 3:27
ABOUT US
Behind every ceremony is a dedicated team of Texas A&M Corps of Cadets committed to upholding the highest standards of military tradition and professionalism. Each year, junior and senior cadets undergo extensive training under the guidance of experienced members, mastering every aspect of military funeral honors through regular instruction, practice, and evaluations. This commitment to discipline and continual preparation ensures that every service is carried out with the precision, dignity, and respect that every family deserves.
Their service was a gift to our nation; our service is a tribute to their legacy.
