1. Meatball

2. Glorified running club that hides behind public service as a means to justify the entire organization. Turning more and more into the Religious Volunteers. Seriously, who prays before and after every run?

3. I was 1stSgt and my CO guilt tripped me into applying.

4. Above average running ability. Above average rifle spinning ability. Cord looks a lot sharper in uniform.

Once upon a time FDT Hound here

Above average runners, below average drillers, above average self image

Most are really good guys but a few just in it to boost resumes and jockey for bigger positions of leadership, not unlike the rest of the Corps really.

Tree here. I probably wouldn't do it again. It's kinda just a mini frat within the corps.

Not an RV. Always called them Harveys. Jimmy Stewart movie reference,

Frankly, I liked most of the RVs I knew. Maybe that has changed.

Tree here. Very sad to read this quote. In the mid-90s it was still a significant honor to be elected into the RVs. Obviously not 100% of all cadets aspired to be an RV, but it was highly respected. Hopefully it still is...

Not an RV. I knew some really outstanding RVs, and I knew some really terrible ones. There are good apples and bad apples in every organization.

From a practical stand point, I think they do a great job with sacred Aggie ceremonies of Silver Taps and Muster.

Both of my older brothers were RV's in the late 90's/early 2000's. It seemed like a pretty respectable group of guys from what I could tell and I always loved seeing them drill. Both my bros were trees.
