The main purpose of this research was to find out how patriotism, warriorism, peacekeeping orientation and support to global institutions as aspects of identity are presented among cadets and soldiers in today's society and to compare their results with the cadet results obtained in the 2009. In order to achieve this, the Croatian translation of the original Future Officer Survey (32 questions) was used, but in a shorter version that measured the above mentioned four orientations. First data collection was conducted in 2009 and the second in 2016. In both cases, the entire cadet population was covered. The results of the research from 2016 confirmed the original factor structure of the questionnaire with four major factors, of which three are in line with the original results of the questionnaire (patriotism, warriorism and peacekeeping orientation), while the last factor is completely new compared to previous researches, and refers to antagonism towards peace missions. This new factor has shown a positive correlation with warrior orientation and a negative one with peacekeeping orientation. In addition, the patriotism factor, which proved to be the most prominent among cadets, showed significant correlation with years that participant spent on college, parents' education, the importance of religion, and political orientation. The factor of warriorism has shown significant correlation with gender, age, years of study and political orientation, while factor of peacekeeping orientation was correlated with gender, father's education and political orientation. The factor of antagonism towards peace missions has shown correlation with the type of training, gender, father's education, and political orientation. The differences in cadet value orientations were proven by the difference in the factor structure of the values measured in 2016 relative to the structure obtained from the 2009 data, but the T-test results showed statistically significant differences in only 6 measured questions.
