Airborne is not an MOS, or career field, but is just an additional skill.

I have never heard of Instructors being retired reserve personell. I guess you learn something new everyday.

[-BuLL-]

Probably happens quite often you just don't hear or see it.

[Drill for life]

I have never met a JROTC instrucor who was in the reserves. I am sure there are some(it is probaly a northern thing).

[C/SSGT Seifer]

Airborne is not an MOS, or career field, but is just an additional skill.

I honestly couldn't tell you. But I remember Commander saying he was a DI (he called cadence like one too, at least from waht i heard.)

[-BuLL-]

I'm sure he would much rather have recieved the Bronze Stars than to have won them, but who am I to say. My 1SG also was awarded a Bronze Star while in Vietnam.

Retired Army personnel (E-6 through O-6) who have at least 20 years of active duty service

They couldn't have been reserves.

DFL this should explain why you haven't seen any reservist instructors.

[army_grunt_11B]

*Cough*AGR*Cough*

[Drill for life]

Yes then why do cadets post that there instrucotrs where in the reserves(unless they where active duty for 20 years and then transferred to there branches resrves)

[Billyd]

Let me give little background. One is not truly "retired" from the service until one has completed 30 years of service. When one "retires" at 20 years, one becomes a member of the reserves for the next ten years and is subject to recall. Not something the recruiters tell you, but when you do your retirement briefings, you find out all sorts of interesting facts.

Another recent change is that some reservists are being permitted to become JROTC instructors. I don't have all the details available to me, but I recall reading them at the AFOATS page.

[Drill for life]

BillyD I did read that on the web a while ago. They just started doing that in 2007.

I beg to differ Cadet Master Chief,

BillyD already covered it, but one of my former SNSIs retired as a commander in the USNR. If I remember correctly, and we had this conversation almost five years ago, he transferred to the Naval Reserve after meeting the acquired twenty years of active service. I'd go back and ask him to double check, but he passed away a year ago.

Just for piles and giggles.
SNSI (Fall of '04-Spring of '07): CDR, USN/USNR Aviation, 23 years of naval service, 6 years as a NJROTC instructor.
NSI (Fall of '04-Spring of '06): MGySgt, USMC Infantry, 30 years of Marine Corps service, Vietnam Veteran, 19 years as a NJROTC instructor.
SNSI (Fall of '07-Present): CDR, USN Surface Warfare, 20+ years in the Navy, another 10 as a NROTC commandant, first year as a NJROTC instructor.
NSI (Fall of '06-Present): 1stSgt, USMC Recruit Depot Paris Island Company first sergeant (former Senior Drill Instructor & Drill Instructor), 21 years in as an active Marine, going on three years in NJROTC.

*Present meaning they are still instructors at my old unit*

KING OF BATTLE!

[armysc_25b]

These great Soldiers gave me the guidance to get me through high school, quit being so lazy, and do something with my life. Without them, I'd probably still be at home working at Domino's (nothing wrong with the place, but you get what I mean).

AI (2001): SFC (R), USA Infantry & Vietnam Veteran, retired that year after 20 years military service and 20 years with JROTC
AI (2001-2003): SGM (R), USA Infantry & Vietnam Veteran, retired with just over 20 years military service and 22 years with JROTC
AI (2003-2005): 1SG (R), USA Signal Corps & Persian Gulf Veteran, just completed his 20 years of service and those were his first years in JROTC
