Having a son who is in the Corps of Cadets, I see first hand the positive effect Hargrave Military Academy has on the Cadets. These young men are our future, and it is an honor to be able to watch and help them grow into leaders of tomorrow with confidence and respect - both for themselves and their fellow Cadets. Hargrave teaches them responsibility, fairness, leadership, comradery and gives them the opportunity to grow, lead, sometimes fail and learn from their mistakes.
