UMBC NROTC Alumni
Our battalion was established in 2016 as part of the Maryland NROTC consortium. We are driven by the core values of honor, courage, and commitment as we push our midshipmen mentally, morally, and physically. Our midshipmen are given the opportunities to show leadership and build the necessary skills they can later utilize in the fleet. As billet positions change every semester, midshipmen are able to expand their knowledge and experience through various roles within the battalion. Though our battalion is relatively small, we have true grit, as a Retriever should, to go above and beyond the expectations in everything we do.

Donations are greatly appreciated and will directly support our midshipmen. Our battalion would use the money to fund many different morale events, ceremonies, and field exercises, which promote the success of our midshipmen and unit. Additionally, midshipmen are given the opportunity to attend leadership conferences each semester, which promote networking and further develop leadership skills. Your donation can have an immense impact on the experiences of our Midshipmen throughout this program and aid in their development into future Naval and Marine Corps Officers.
Donations will be graciously accepted through our Battalion Activities Fund. Please be on the look out for opportunities to donate on this page.
