    NJROTC is great, great opportunities if you have great leaders. I got a scholarship to go to west point but instead joined the Marines as a enlisted. Taking care for my family and grandparents was the deal breaker to not go to west point.

      We need Academy graduates as political candidates. The nonsense can stop if Vets create a Super PAC.

    Went to the University of Utah on a NROTC scholarship. Graduated and commissioned 1975. Served with the US Navy Seabees-We build We fight Can Do! Go Navy. Wonderful foundation for life success. I came from a military family (Army and Air Force) my father served 27 years. Knew what I was getting into, NROTC and military exceeded all my expectations, was a great adventure.

    NROTC is sooo much better than the Boat school. Lets eliminate Annapolis and go NROTC. Back in the Reagan days a scholarship NROTC Midshipman received a regular commission which really pissed off the academy guys lol. Then when the MO academy babies had to go to "Bull Dog" you would have thought they had been castrated. There is no value add to academy grads.

      There’s value in both communities. I imagine a ring knocker would slot into the technical stuff and staff jobs better prepared than most fresh out of party mode frat boys! As a grunt, I’m inclined to agree with you; but I do recall one LT who was head-and-shoulders above every boot LT I ever served with…

      @@marinz4life shipmate my best CO was a ring knocker. What I found was socially the boat schoolers had a ton of pent up energy and they could be really difficult to be around.
      That said there are good and bad in both. I’m making a generalization obviously. I think the brigade needs to be shrunk. I came up in the era where NROTC scholarship grads got a regular commission. The boat school mafia hated that. That’s the era of grads we got the new CNO. There needs to be a balance in numbers from the commissioning sources. IMO the academy tips the scale far too much.
