High school students whose campuses do not have a Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps program would be able to join units at another school under a bill being introduced in Congress.
The expansion of the JROTC program is part of a broader bill being introduced by Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, intended to build on recent momentum in recruiting by expanding the military's access to high schools.

The kids I've met in JROTC are really good kids. Most are doing it as a way to learn leadership skills, not as a stepping stone to military service.

It will never cease to amaze me all the gung ho peers I had in AFJROTC and I am one of a handful that not only joined but took it to retirement.

Interesting as thirty years ago kids from other HS came to my AFJROTC class.
