3rd Wing Corps of Cadets

The next outfit we are highlighting is Squadron 16!!

Squadron 16 is dedicated to serving others, excelling academically, and developing leaders of character. As members of SQ-16, we strive to uphold our core values while fostering a strong sense of camaraderie. We are proudly involved in many of Texas A&M’s traditions, from Student Bonfire to PMC. Being a part of Squadron 16 means more than just being a cadet—it means being part of a family committed to selfless service and personal growth as leaders of character.

Congratulations to our new command teams for 3rd Wing this coming year! Be sure to check out each outfits posts for more information. Let’s celebrate the end to the year, and a bright start to a new one!

Howdy y’all! The Corps of Cadets is restructuring our leadership, and for us that means we are rebranding! 3rd Wing is now 3rd Group and we have a new logo. Our minor unit will still include Squadron 2, 5, 6, 20, and 23!
