History of JROTC Program

The Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC),
like its senior counterpart ROTC came into being with the
signing of the National Defense Act. The act authorized high
schools the loan of federal military equipment and the assignment
of active or retired military personnel as instructors on
the condition that they followed a prescribed course of training.
At its inception, the JROTC course consisted of a minimum
of three hours of military training per week for a period
of three years. Any JROTC graduate who completed this course
of military instruction was authorized a certificate of eligibility
for a reserve Commission to be honored at age 21.
