COLUMBIA — University of Missouri Army ROTC members have been instructed to not wear their uniforms this week, according to a student in the program.

The student, who wished to remain anonymous, said a professor of military science sent an email to members instructing them to not wear their uniforms because of threats made towards veterans and soldiers in the Columbia area.

The email read: “Team, There have been threats made against Veterans and Soldiers in the COMO area, therefore as a force protection measure do not wear your uniforms to class this week. You should wear your uniform for LAB only and you should not wear it around campus at all.”

The member also said the group’s physical training sessions are also cancelled.

The email was sent to members Monday evening, two days before veterans day.
