Biographical NoteReturn to Top

In 1921, an Air Service ROTC unit was established at the University of Washington. The UW Air ROTC program was discontinued in 1928 because of Congressional budget limitations, and all other Air ROTC units were discontinued by 1935. In 1946, an Army Air Force program was introduced at the University as a branch of Army ROTC. A separate Air Force ROTC unit was activated on campus in 1948, with the advent of the Department of the Air Force. After successfully completing the AFROTC program at Detachment 910, cadets earn a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force.
