About a fourth of VMI cadets will commission through AROTC, NROTC and AFROTC as 2nd lieutenants upon graduation. VMI offers more 4 year ROTC scholarships than any other school offering ROTC. VMI students are held to an honor code-one offense and they are out. Number 3 public liberal arts college in the country according to USWNR. High academic standards. Some students choose to go through all four years of military training while attending college and do not commission. Not a pretend military school. I have a child there right now. He would tell you it is a very challenging place to go to college. Not every college student at VMI would be in agreement with Mr. Romney, but would respectfully listen to his speech. That's what a good citizen does. VMI prepares citizen soldiers. About a fourth of VMI cadets will commission through AROTC, NROTC and AFROTC as 2nd lieutenants upon graduation.

These are are not "military cadets" going into service. Aren't these reservists at most? Fake Mitt at the pretend military school? Perfect venue for Mitt actually!
