About

125 Years of Service

The National Honorary Society of Pershing Rifles, turns 125 years old this year.  As the first College Military Fraternal organization, it began on the campus of the University of Nebraska in 1894.  While growing and spreading across the country (with members worldwide), it has maintained at its core, the standards of Proficiency, Excellence, and Brotherhood.

 This years Blue and White Weekend, the 54th event, is a tribute to ALL Pershing Riflemen, and our Sisters the Pershing Angels, and all auxiliaries that assist us in our learning, perfecting, performing, and service.  Held on and near the beautiful Campus of Virginia State University, home to Company Oscar-4, we hope this year to be able to provide an opportunity for ALL Pershing Family members,  which represent an elite microcosm of our diverse nation, to come together and celebrate our shared military service, civilian service, business and education achievements, service, and our various culture's.
