By Ol’ Jim Cathey Life gives us memories and as memories are made, traditions are born. I love traditions and one of the best comes from Texas A&M University. The annual Muster at Texas A&M is a tradition that unites all Aggies, both the present and the past. It is Texas A&M’s most solemn and cherished tradition. It’s the “Aggie Muster” and it was started in 1883. “If there is an A&M man in one hundred miles of you, you are expected to get together, eat a little, and live over the days you spent at the A&M College of Texas,” urged the March 1923, Texas Aggie. Muster is celebrated on San Jacinto Day, April 21st, throughout the world in over four hundred locations. Every Muster ceremony is the same. Texas Aggies pay their respects to all those who are absent because of death since the last Muster. The names of the honored dead are called from the Muster Roll and a friend of the deceased answers, “HERE,” symbolizing that their memory lives on in the hearts of Aggies everywhere.
