Commitment To JROTC
I want to become BC because I feel qualified and prepared to make a positive difference in the Battalion. I have been and will continue to be immensely committed to JROTC. This year, I created and fulfilled the Chaplain position, showing initiative to improve the Battalion and enhance my understanding of cadets. Furthermore, I was the Saber Guard Commander. I contacted West Point in order to receive proper instructions, exhibiting my commitment to correct procedures. Also, I revised and wrote many SOP's, proving my ability to spot an area of improvement and develop solutions. Next, I will lead the JLAB Leadership Team to Washington, D.C., exemplifying my understanding of JROTC principles. I function effectively with an abundance of responsibilities,

    Throughout the program, we were taught these values, "Integrity first, service before self and excellence in all we do." I had multiple opportunities being placed in leadership roles to lead others within the corps. From this, I learned that you're accountable for everything you do, and you have to own up to your mistakes no matter how bad the repercussions will be. AFJROTC also includes numerous community service projects and not only did I give back to the community with over 150 hours of community service, but I also gained the trait to be…

    Despite non-selection, my pursuit of this prestigious and challenging position will not be deterred. My naval career, I have continually sought positions of greater responsibility and produced exceptional results in each of those positions. While I take great pride in being a Chief Petty Officer, I feel the experience I have acquired as a Chief will benefit any wardroom I am a member of. It is important to note that I did not submit an LDO-CWO package for FY-14 due to the time constraints I experienced while standing up Naval Beach Unit SEVEN with an under staffed office and operational commitment.…

    Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) program can be a four-year journey of life changing experiences that build character and leadership. I was a freshman when I first join JROTC, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Throughout my student life being a cadet, I was challenged physically, mentally, and emotionally. But I was able to learn more about teamwork and leadership. The curriculum consists of practical exercises that directly target an individual’s leadership and character. JROTC has taught me what I would not have learned in any other class in high school. Cadets have overcome fears and have formed lifelong friendships and unforgettable memories. Overall, they have found JROTC has molded a sense of character within them just as it has for me.…

    Firstly, I want to become a Marine Officer in order to serve and give back to my country. Secondly, as I desire to become a Marine Infantry Officer, leading fellow Marines in the Marine Corps as an Infantry Officer would be the greatest honor, privilege, and responsibility one could possess. Finally, becoming a Marine Officer will challenge me both physically and mentally as well as develop me into the best person, citizen, leader, and ultimately the best Marine I can be. I want to be a part of something bigger than myself and make a difference in the world, as Ronald Reagan said “Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don’t have that problem.”…

    As Battalion Commander I would be able to move the Jaguar Battalion to become a more productive and motivated set of cadets that we have seen since my freshman year in JROTC. I have numerous plans to achieve these goals and will more likely be able to acomplish them by doing the following; having company set goals, a fundraising chart to have an interactive view on which company is raising more money, fitness charts set around each JROTC room to show cadets proper movements on excercises, stretches, fitness goals and proper diets to help maintain and have a healthy body. I will also have Cadet Challenge requirement guidelines in each room to help cadets know what they need to achieve in order for them to recieve special awards or high scores on the Cadet Challenge when the date comes. These are just few of many ideas that I have to help and improve our Jaguar Battalion to become the best battalion we have ever seen in ELCHS.…

    Most officers probably looked forward to this day, but mine was a small affair. After all, my initial counseling from the outgoing battalion commander was, “consider yourself the interim commander, we need somebody to hold this property” Fine by me, I was leaving the Army, this would only delay me a couple months; an opinion I kept to myself. After all, I was well received within the company and got along with the NCO’s. My new XO and I were great friends, and it’s not like we had much to worry about. Equipment reset was going well, as were the personnel transfers in and out of the unit. My life revolved around NCOER submissions and equipment turn in. The new Battalion command team had transitioned as had the adjacent company commanders. I felt very comfortable with my guys, but began to feel very awkward outside the unit. After all, I was still the interim commander, and hadn’t even been to the career course; a fact some of my new “peers” would jokingly point out at command and staff meetings. In fact, the new BN XO one day casually told me “Don’t worry Brent, nobody’s expecting too much from you. Just think, if you do some small things well, it would be like a home run for you”. For some reason, that comment…
