Harvard ROTC Unit Named Best in Nation

Other members of Paul Revere also noted that the battalion is not your ordinary ROTC unit.

"Compared to many of the other ROTC units, the Paul Revere Battalion demands less time commitment," said Lawrence A. Obst '01, a cadet. "However, the quality of the teaching in our battalion ensures that we are just as competitive as cadets from other schools."
