Clemson University Army ROTC Fightin' Tigers

Check out what our Fightin' Tigers did over their winter break!

Another incredible year of our annual Army ROTC Turkey Bowl!

Huge shoutout to CPT Robertson’s team for bringing home the win for the second year in a row 🥇🔥

Earlier this semester, the Fightin' Tiger Battalion conducted their Fall FTX (Field Training Exercise) at Fants Grove here at Clemson.

They did day and night land navigation, ASIP radio training, Tactical Combat Casualty Care training, as well as practiced their throwing skills at a hand-grenade assault course.

Keep up the great work, cadets!

On Sept. 11–12, Clemson University’s Fightin’ Tiger Battalion hosted the German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge (GAFPB) test.

After two days of swimming, fitness, shooting, and rucking, our cadets proved their grit—earning 17 Bronze, 20 Silver, and 8 Gold badges.

Proud of their hard work, dedication, and resilience! 🐅💪

Last week was a big one for our Fightin’ Tiger Battalion! 🌊💪

Cadets took on the CWST and put their swimming skills to the test, built squad camaraderie at Y Beach lab, and wrapped it up with a rainy-day PushupCrew where the Tigers came out on top! 🐅🔥

Last week was one for the books 💪🇺🇸

📌 Contracting AFT on Tuesday – our cadets pushed hard and crushed it.

📌 Thursday we had Drill Sergeants from Fort Jackson fine-tuning our Drill & Ceremony for the First Friday Parade the following day.
📌 Wrapped it up with Clemson’s first game of the season vs. LSU, and our Pushup Crew showed OUT 🙌🔥

☀️ A Summer well spent for our cadets!

Our cadets stayed busy sharpening their leadership, skills, and experiences.

We’re proud of all the hard work put in over the summer and can’t wait to see that energy carried into the school year! 🧡💜🇺🇸

The ML3 (now ML4) class just completed their summer training at CST 2025 at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Their hard work and dedication paid off, with our Fightin’ Tiger Battalion finishing #3 in the nation at CST! 🐅🇺🇸

From land navigation and marksmanship to tactics in the field and long ruck marches — our cadets proved themselves every step of the way.

These new 4s will now take the lessons they’ve learned and pass them on to the rest of the battalion as we continue to train and grow together.

We also want to recognize and congratulate our five Recondo Cadets who went above and beyond to earn this prestigious honor: CDTs Brendan Miller, Henry Wilkinson, Carson Homan, Joel McCurdy, and Tyler Ballenger. 💪🎖️
Proud is an understatement—Go Tigers! 🧡💜

This week at lab, the FTB put their brains together creating a floatable raft to get their teams to the finish line. Amazing work to everyone involved. We had a fun opportunity for cadets to get to know each other with our annual cook out. Shoutout CDT Campbell and Johnson for being the grill masters. Looking forward to the coming week when the 1/2/3s start going over tactics!
