I'm in AFJROTC and I can say it has changed me in so many ways it changed my life I'm on drill team and everybody that is in the core I talk to and I am more of a leader than a follower
What an honor. If I could turn back the hands of time, this is where I would be. Thank you for this outstanding, informative article. May God Bless the United States of America and our Corp.
I was in Naval JROTC back in the 70s, considered a very "uncool" program in then uber liberal NY (borderline Marxist at this point). Always mocked and harassed even by some of the teachers. Still the best part of my HS experience followed by 8 years in the Navy. Sadly many HS are cutting JROTC courses, some due to a lack of funding others (as many in CA and NY) out of identity politics. Glad to see Texas bucking the trend.
@@Madman-bb2nc Dang. I live in Georgia too and in my county, all 5 high schools have a jrotc program 4 of the schools are army, the other is air force. I’m in army jrotc at my school. I wish states would bring back jrotc to schools that have cut it bc it really can teach you so many valuable skills that you need in life
Being born in Hawaii; I had no idea what JROTC was; or that it even existed. I was motivated to join because both my father and grandfather served in the military. In the National Guard and Navy. We moved to CA when my mother came down with cancer. I joined Army Jrotc for 2 years. When she passed; we moved to Texas. I joined MCJROTC for junior and senior year.
I'm in the Navy JROTC and I usually have uniform inspection on Mondays or Tuesdays, P.T on Wednesdays and Thursdays , where we wore gold shits and NAVY blue shorts to do some training. On Fridays, We do knowledge or naval science. We take tests, activities, quizzes, lectures and presentations from other military branches.
Hello I'm cadet Sgt, Cobb Topeka Kansas from Topeka high school I've been in two years in MCJROTC it a good way to show how life will work I love it and to all that read this thank you for watch there channel it help them grow
I’m currently in my 3rd year of NJROTC and I wish I could’ve been in an MCJROTC because I plan on going into the corps (I’m a female). And our schedule is; Monday: PI (Personal Inspection), Tuesday and Wednesday: Knowledge, Thursday: Drill, and Friday: PT. We have recently dedicated Wednesdays as Mentor day. Where we mentor the newer cadets on knowledge or uniform inspections. Location: Uvalde,Texas
My school is the only school that has a Marine jrotc program in the whole state. (Alaska) every other jrotc program here in Alaska, including the other schools in the same town other than my high school, are all Air Force, army, or navy.
It's funny cause I'm in MCJROTC in allen, it's really fun, I don't remember being taught how to put a dress blue cover together, I got mine and learned on my own, even tho it's not hard to do I wish they taught us about it in academics
WOW! To the students, he is a GREAT leader! Be glad he isn't your real Drill Instructor though! He was my Senior Drill Instructor on Parris Island (Senior Drill Instructor Sgt McPhatter) and that man INVENTED ways to create physical pain! LOL! I wouldn't have any other Drill Instructor leading me either! GREAT STUFF!!
I'm in a NJROTC (Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps) and I have a mix between navy and marines. My SNSI (Senior Naval Science Instructor - NS2 and above) is navy and my NSI ( Naval Science Instructor - NS1 only ) is marines.
Laura Vinson ask ur counselor if theres enough people who wants to be in a jrotc program then the school may hire two instructors and start the program cuz the military will pay for the uniforms the awards etc
