Greetings, FUMA Cadets, Staff, Faculty and Parents!
We are just one week away until the Class of 2021 graduates. I believe, next to faithful religion training, a good education is the noblest heritage that parents can bestow upon their children. It would be unjust to their children if they sent them out into the world without an education to contend for the prizes of life with those who are thoroughly equipped for the contest. The classroom, field of athletics and the barracks are arguably the best place for promoting a moral and ethical culture.
Fork Union Military Academy educates, develops and inspires young men in a college preparatory, Christian and military-styled environment through body, mind and spirit so that they have respect, integrity, faith, character and discipline. These attributes will equip them well in any walk of life.
At Fork Union Military Academy, boys form a brotherhood that lasts for a lifetime. I hope these young men cherish the next seven days and reflect on what their parents have sacrificed for them.
1 Peter 3:8
“Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.”
Go FUMA!
Best regards,
Colonel David L. Coggins, USMC (Ret.)
President
Fork Union Military Academy
