2023-24 Yearbook: https://www.canva.com/design/DAF5DBCiX8A/NHRygQGcnP9izXz1rPzwgg/view?utm_content=DAF5DBCiX8A&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=editor In accordance with US War Department General Order 124, (pg 2) (pg 3) issued December 1946, the Kansas State College of Agriculture and Applied Science was directed to establish a "senior division air ROTC unit" effective the 1946-47 school year. Initially established as Detachment 13, K-State's Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) unit was renumbered Detachment 270 in the late 1940s after the establishment of the US Air Force on 18 September 1947.

Last week, Det 270 gathered for a memorial PT in remembrance of September 11, 2001, and in honor of the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives that day.

As we remember the lives lost, we also recognize the courage and sacrifice of the first responders, service members, and ordinary Americans who answered the call in the days and years that followed. We will remember. 🇺🇸
