I do know however what you are referring to about the jar but that was a Bonfire thing that a) not sure if true and b) if true don't know if it continued with student bonfire.
My degree says otherwise. Nice try though.
I was in the Corps it have no clue what the pumpkin thing is
It didn't seem like you were saying that before.

I don't think anyone thinks they are special. I do think it prepares them very well for their future careers in the armed services, which you just referenced.

The word toy soldiers is seen as derogatory. Don't forget there are quite a few current and former military members in the Corps as well so not all of them are "toy soldiers".
"The men of Texas A&M can stand up to any men in the world and compare favorably their education and training for leadership --leadership in the pursuits of peace, and if it comes to war, leadership in battle."
--Gen. Omar Bradley

"[A&M] is writing its own military history in the blood of its graduates."
--Gen. Douglas MacArthur

"No more convincing testimony could be given to the manner in which the men of Texas A&M lived up to the ideals and principles inculcated in their days on the campus than the statement that the Congressional Medal of Honor has been awarded to six (seven) former students, that 46 took part in the heroic defense of Bataan and Corregidor and that nearly 700 are on the list of our battle dead."
--Gen. Dwight D. Esienhower

I'll take their opinions over yours.
