VIKING Division was established in northern Virginia in mid-2015 by three U.S. Naval Sea Cadets and three adult volunteers who were drilling in Maryland but wanted to introduce this non-profit youth military program to a wider audience. Since it's establishment, VIKING Division has enrolled over 100 cadets and in less than three years earned the distinction of becoming ranked the #1 unit in the nation. The unit drills monthly in Purcellville, Virginia, and cadets attend training semiannually at locations around the country.

What Our Cadets Are Saying
The characteristics of the individual cadets are what makes our unit special. Each and every cadet has the passion, motivation, and will to make themselves and our unit better. We all have a strong commitment to the unit, and most of us make the corps one of our top priorities. The pride we possess for the VIKING Division pours out from each of our cadets when we are at drill, training, or other special events. One unique aspect of our division is our pursuit of brotherhood among the cadet leaders. The leadership team makes it a point to bond with one another, which strengthens our combined ability to lead during and outside of drill. This promotes unity within the cadets, because it allows them get to know each other’s characteristics and how they operate, which ultimately promotes a stronger bond between us. " |
