Superintendent reports Kodiak High School JROTC unit established; board notes unexpected enrollment gains
Superintendent Dr. Briggman reported establishment of a Coast Guard-affiliated JROTC unit at Kodiak High School and recapped retreat discussions. Board members said the district appears to have an approximate 6.8% enrollment increase (about 100 students) compared with earlier projections and raised concerns about pool heating costs and staff reductions in nursing and cafeteria roles.

I've mentioned being former JROTC before. And that was pretty much my aspirations in youth because I was never told that there was any path to success outside of military that would guarantee housing healthcare (still seems true even though poverty and class differences in enlisted just seems worse)

We went on early, before color guard & marching band. I enjoyed it & stayed on the next 3 years.
I stayed in JROTC 3 years, too, or the Pickle Patrol, as they called us. Our uniforms were green & we had to wear them 1 day/week.
It was more physical activity, anyway.

Aren't these the same guys who whine about "respecting the flag" any time they see some JROTC kid folding it slightly incorrectly? But it's totally fine to use it to filter your beer farts and let it absorb what I can only assume is weeks of unwashed armpit stew?

Oh. Oh man. I’m so sorry.
My JROTC unit was so incestuous that it became a problem finding people who HADN’T done the deed together to lead platoons.

How we got caught with beer is funnier.
We threw a BIG party while my parents were out of town. 20 kids. Drank a few cases. But we were all JROTC nerds so everything got cleaned before mom and dad got home. We were in the clear.
Until dad took the trash out barefoot…

That’s why they push teens & young 39-somethings with the ROTC & JROTC crap. Indoctrination in ‘be all you can effing be’ before their cerebral cortexes are fully developed, (it’s known that brain is not fully mature til late 20s. Fewer people over 30 are dupable w/“glorious war” symbolism.

I have a very similar jacket. Sleeveless and puffy. The kind these northerners wear. I've never worn it. I'm going to rock it this winter.
There was a girl in high school '98 with this dyed hair color. In her JROTC uniform she wore her marlboro reds in the hem of her stocking. I wanted to be her.

He got dropped from JROTC b/c grades. He wouldn't have been dropped from CC b/c they check quarterly, but 1st Sgt checked before each event, and he had an F in English.
To him, he "lost his outlet" and that's why his grades tanked.
But he lost his outlet because they were already tanked.

What's sad was the JROTC kid who killed himself after ICE put an ankle monitor on him. He was a child, brainwashed into loving the US security apparatus and devastated to see it turned on him. He never had a chance to choose to stay or leave. This, in contrast, is cause for celebration

Could've had a whole other life that started at West Point...straight outta JROTC.
But here I picked "reconnecting" to my Nativeness, and the rest is history.

Another reason I've divested as much as I can. Cuz I want this interpersonal hierarchy to die.

Two kids got the shit beat out of them by ICE on their way to enlist to the Marines today, barely a week after that Haitian JROTC kid killed himself after ICE put an ankle monitor on him... the propaganda apparatus in this country is so fucking evil
