The drill team red cord goes on the left shoulder, and the color guard white cord goes on the right shoulder.
Pretty sure blue is for drill or color guard commander
Red: Drill Team White: Color/Honor Guard Black: Raider Team Tan: Marksmanship
ROTC cadets typically aren't paid for being ROTC cadets. However, if they drill with a Reserve or National Guard unit, they receive pay equivalent to what an E-5 in that unit would receive.
You get several different types of uniforms - PT uniform, dress uniform, ACU uniform, etc.
No. There is a single Coast Guard JROTC programme, but no collegiate level ROTC programmes. You can receive a commission in the Coast Guard through Navy ROTC, the United States Coast Guard Academy, or you can apply for a direct commission to the Coast Guard from the United States Merchant Marine Academy.
Yes.
The red shoulder cord is for excelling in Drill Activities.
I think it would be okay in a military high school.
Drill team focuses on precision marching and intricate choreography for performance purposes, often at competitions and parades. ROTC, on the other hand, stands for Reserve Officers' Training Corps and is a college program that prepares students to become officers in the United States Armed Forces. ROTC includes military training, leadership development, and academic coursework. While both involve aspects of discipline and teamwork, the main difference lies in their respective purposes and objectives.
Well my drill team is called the blue lighting drill team because our mascot is a lighting bolt. Try to come up with something that will sound hot when u report in
There are usually 3 (well 4 if you count Color Guard separate from drill) teams in the JROTC program. The Raider team is the more physical of the 3. The Raider team does a group run (2-3miles), push-ups and sit-ups (how many you can do in 2minutes), an obstacle course, CCR (cross country rescue), and a rope bridge. It's difficult, but fun (well, in my opinion.)
College ROTC commissions Reserve, National Guard, and Active Duty officers. You may choose which one you want.
