WASHINGTON (Army News Service) -- More than 300 Reserve Officer Training Corps cadets, representing more than a dozen colleges and universities, gathered Tuesday at Howard University in Washington, D.C. for the Army Senior Leader/ROTC Professional Mentor Forum.
During the event, Secretary of the Army Eric Fanning provided keynote remarks and took questions from cadets on subjects ranging from leadership, the value of diversity, and the critical role ROTC cadets play as ambassadors to bridge the civilian-military divide.
"The Army is a people-based organization," Fanning told cadets. "I've seen how people are the strength of our Army. And the Army's people cannot accomplish their many missions without strong and steady leadership -- which is where each of you comes in."
