Your Weapons Officer is a c/CPO but the insignia on the top left is for c/SCPO...same with your Marksmanship Commander. Your Orienteering Commander is a c/PO1 but there is c/CPO insignia next to his picture. A few of your Team Commanders look like they're missing rank insignia on their covers as well. Your XO also looks like he's wearing two bars but you have him as a c/LT.

Just make sure the rank (or rate, as appropriate), titles, and insignia match up. I don't mean to nitpick, but it really is all in the details and your website may be the first impression that someone has of your unit.

Aside from some of the smaller details that the resident Padre mentioned, your site looks great.

One side note: Medals and their corrosponding ribbons should not be worn at the same time. Just a tip to pass to your fellow cadets.

Another side note: If you're not a Navy lieutenant, or a Marine captain, you need to consider changing your avatar to reflect your cadet rank. There's a big difference between a NJROTC c/LT and a military O-3.

Thanks for the nitpicking, we just had promotions so I missed ranking them appropriately. Either way, they are fixed and our XO is a C/LT it's just the photo. Yes, we are trying to use the site a a recruiting method because of our dangerously low numbers last school year.

And we have had a long discussion on the medals and ribbons issue.. but our last CO made it so we could wear both, so of course everybody did.

And yes, I do know difference between rotc and actual miliary. I am new to posting in this forum so I have been told and I have fixed this.

Thank you very much, I've been working for about 3 months on it by myself.

On the matter of the ribbons and medals issue the field manual says
"No more than 3 medals may be worn in each row side-by-side, or 5 medals when overlapping, in addition to its corresponding ribbon, if any." page 1-39

And what "field manual" is that?

That is straight out of the NJROTC Cadet Field Manual.

Is that a local directive or one published by the USN? Learn very quickly that unless it is backed by a OFFICIAL directive put out by your sponsoring service, it doesn't hold very much weight here.

The NJROTC cadet field manual is the official manual for the NJROTC. Every cadet in every area across the nation has had or seen this book most likely.. or they should of.
