ROTC isn’t found on many high school campuses anymore, is it? Pity.

My 14 year old Freshman son is in HS Naval ROTC. He's one of the few hardcore members that has a high and tight haircut...

Hard to believe that high school ROTC was mandated for every male in Wash. DC until home rule.

Hard to calculate the follow on losses to the black community’s young men...self discipline, path to marketable trades, family life and on and on.

My HS didn’t have a program until the early 90s and it was the richest in the state.

I graduated in 89 and it irked me to no end. A good many of the ones in my class would have done almost anything to get one if it.

The principal was a moron, one of the vice principals a fool but the least powerful vice principal was of course a sensible guy.
