Dumbest Army policy ever--shaving BEFORE PT. Good god, it's early, let them work out with stubble and THEN get a close shave before they're about to wear a real uniform like camo or service dress. Shaving before PT and then showering after actually ruins the appearance of your shave.
It's only obliged when you sign the contract, which would be half way through the program, assuming that you pass all the requirements. But if you just want to try to see if the military is really for you, you can join ROTC and then quit later. They won't hold anything against you, unless you receive a scholarship from them, then you will have to pay it back. My advice is to go talk to your school's ROTC department and decide for yourself.
Ha! From my memory in my college days we had PT at 0600 two (then three) times a week. AFROTC back in the early 2000s. We did not have to shave prior. So, I think we all (I lived for a time in an all ROTC house) woke around 0540 and then carpooled over to derelict field house our university gave us in lieu of tearing it down!
racism isnt a big thing at rotc right? like if i join a rotc that is predominantly white, and im brown, will i be ok? i dont want to go through 4 years of bullying.
if somebody is harassing you report it to your commanding officer. however you must make sure you know the difference between kidding around and actual harassment first.
5:20am... that’s cute. How about 3:00am to be at 5:15 at the PT. It’s hard sacrifice while having a job and studying at the same time but hey, i love it. ROTC at Puerto Rico
Balancing this with a full time University education and working a part-time civilian job is not a joke. At least as an enlisted, military is your only priority.
So you have, what, 8 weeks of boot camp that you have to go through then you get to work your job? For ROTC, it's 4 years, and also having to balance this with getting a degree. ROTC still also has an actual boot camp that is 6-8 weeks in the summer of your sophomore years depending on how long you've been in the program. So it's not a joke.
Nice Job!!!, I am a member of the ROTC class of 1986, and proud to say I was a San Francisco Don Cadet.
this just reminded me of all the terrible and funny encounters with butter bars as an enlisted troop. go gettem boots and cruits
Care to share? Always good to hear what not to do as a young officer from your perspective.
Great job with this film Joseph!!!! I learned a lot. Thanks
Its funny cause I'm watching this from the other USF (University of South Florida) ROTC
my university is 30 mins away so i get up extra early to get there on time, our PT starts at 0600, so I'm up at 0400. wish i lived close to campus.

Blacksherman20 😂👏👏👏
is it the same everywhere?
If I do ROTC, is military service (after college) mandatory? If not, is there a way to do ROTC without being obligated to the military?

I am highly certain that those neon greet PT shoes are not authorized
followtheflow2 I'm highly certain they are lol
Chris Ramsey Well idk maybe for the new army it is. Straight outta basic
followtheflow2 The new army is the army. Don't be mad at what color shoes are allowed now.
Chris Ramsey they’re not in regulation
So why do ya'll have a deployment patch on if you have never deployed ?
It's an ROTC thing. My school doesn't do it, Thank God.

Pt. Belts for running. They run early in the morning when it’s dark.

Ben Ebrighy did you use those question marks because you think it's early or late?

I'm in ROTC and we usually wake up at 0445 to 0500 it's not abnormal.

Being enlisted, this looks like a joke to me

@@zainahmed6502 it’s still a joke lol
