The AROTC’s Color Guard Unit participated in their last football game this year. It turned out to be another gorgeous day for a home game. CU’s third home football game happened on Saturday, October 2nd against USC. To prepare for the game, our Color Guard Unit trains with the CU Band prior to the game to get the timing and location correct for where they stand and the movements they make on the field during the half-time event. The Army ROTC Color Guard typically consists of 4 Cadets, two holding replica rifles and two holding flags (the U.S. flag and the Army flag).
