About ROTC

The US Air Force was created as a separate military service on September 18, 1947 by the National Security Act of 1947. Det 380 was established soon after as one of the first detachments in the nation. Since 1959, our detachment alone has produced over 980 officers. Although we have made many improvements over the years, the basic Air Force ROTC mission has changed very little. We still recruit, educate, and prepare college students to be Air Force officers. Each year we continue to provide opportunities for thousands of college graduates.
