The cadets raised $100 during World War II to make Reveille a general, as part of a fundraiser for the K-9 Corps.

[2] During the opening of football season, Reveille was named official mascot when she led the band onto Kyle Field for a half-time performance.

Due to the quantity of officers and soldiers Texas A&M contributed to the US Armed Forces in World War II, Reveille was given the honorary title of Cadet General by the U.S. Army.

Upon her death on January 18, 1944, she received a formal military funeral on the fifty-yard line in Kyle Field and then was buried at the north entrance facing the scoreboard so that she can always watch the Aggies play.

Netterville convinced the student senate to pass a resolution stating that Reveille's care would be provided by his unit, A Quartermaster Company.

In December 1984, Reveille V was brought to the Texas A&M campus, and her first official appearance as mascot came at a basketball game on January 11, 1985.

[7] In early November 1993, Reveille V underwent emergency surgery for gastric volvulus, which causes an animal's stomach to twist out of place.

Reveille V was initially buried at Cain Park on the Texas A&M campus, but her grave was relocated to the north end of Kyle Field once stadium renovations were finished.

Upon induction into the Aggie family, she quickly assumed the roles and duties of her predecessor and began attending university functions including football games.

Shortly after beginning her duties, Reveille was kidnapped by a group of University of Texas students led by Neil Andrew Sheffield.

After the school finally acknowledged her disappearance and released a statement that they were planning to press felony charges against whoever took her, Reveille was tied to a sign post near Lake Travis and an anonymous caller informed the police of her location.

She was in attendance with the Aggie football team during their first Big 12 Championship in 1998, and celebrated alongside President George W. Bush at the inaugural ball in Washington, D.C., in 2001.

Although for the next four years she was able to resist her ailments and continue with her duties as mascot, these health problems would eventually lead to her early retirement in May 2001.

Reveille VI was in declining health and was said to be taking nine different pills and two forms of liquid medications each day to help combat seizures and other problems.

[12] At a pre-game performance at the Texas A&M-TCU game in December, Reveille's nervous, high-pitched barks could be heard above the band.

She worked closely with her professional trainer, Kay Stephens, and her newly appointed mascot corporal throughout the summer for her return for football season.

Though other incidents have been suspected, in 2007, it was reported that Reveille VII bit her handler after having her tail stepped on during a morning run.

[16][17] In the summer of 2008, she began her retirement at the age of 7 living with two other dogs under the care of Paul and Tina Gardner in Wellborn, Texas.

[18] Texas A&M University president R. Bowen Loftin reported via Twitter that Reveille VII died on May 30, 2013, at home in Aggieland.

[27] Reveille IX (born November 22, 2013) was officially announced by Texas A&M University on Tuesday, March 10, 2015, and assumed her role on May 9, 2015.

Reveille IX was donated by Overland Collies, based in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, a Cleveland suburb.

[30] On April 30, 2021, Reveille IX officially retired and now resides on campus at the Stevenson Companion Animal Life-Care Center.

"[33] In 1997, the university decided to expand Kyle Field and build the Bernard C. Richardson Zone at the north end of the stadium.

After meeting with representatives of the Traditions Council, Student Senate, and E-2, the athletic department decided to create a temporary cemetery across the street in Cain Park.

[33] Since the recent additions blocked the gravesites' view of Kyle Field, a miniature scoreboard was constructed on the outside of the stadium so that the deceased mascots can still watch the Aggies play.
