Volume IV (2000-2021)

This volume is planned to cover the twenty years of Unit history up to, but not including all of academic year 2022, the beginning of the Unit's 82nd year. Academic year 2022 will include parts of the fall of 2021. Release of Volume IV was originally due to occur at the 2020 Reunion, on or near Veterans Day of that year, to coincide with the Unit's 80th Anniversary. Did the advent of Irregular Warfare intervene? Concepts associated with it are older than the term itself. Time will tell. The highlights from this period will include the fourth and fifth home for NROTC on campus and the crisis it involved, creation of the alumni website, creation of the Alumni Foundation, the new NROTC obstacle course, the Spur & Anchor Unit newsletter, the reappearance of the Longhorn Log yearbook, the first Midshipman to reach 4-star rank in the Navy, the time capsule discovered during the demolition of RAS, the NROTC alumnus selected as Chancellor of the UT System, the WWII oral histories project, the Unit celebrating its 75th Anniversary and the first Midshipman to reach 4-star rank in the Marine Corps. An updated version of the Appendix will also be released.
