Color Guard is one of the most noticeable extracurricular activities within the UMD ROTC Battalion. Being part of the Cadet Color Guard gives the cadet the insight into how to properly present the national colors for selected events throughout the school year. The cadet color guard will also do joint Color Guard performances with the Air Force ROTC detachment. The Color Guard consists of highly motivated cadets that take pride in the presentation of the national colors at many events.
