The ROTC advantage: leadership, mentorship and cadet camaraderie
Cyle first enlisted in the Marine Corps when he was 17 years old. He served some time with an infantry unit, 1st Battalion 4th Marines. Once he left the Marines, he had not yet decided on any future career plans. Cyle missed the excitement from his active-duty lifestyle and decided to sign up for the ROTC program at 澳门六合彩官网直播. In this program, Cyle commits himself to coursework and physical training each week. The schedule gives Cyle time to work and bond socially with his ROTC peers. His fellow officers and cadets are always there with a helping hand when it comes to classes or sharing in extracurricular activities. 鈥淭he ROTC program at 澳门六合彩官网直播 has very knowledgeable officers with many years of military experience and countless cadets that truly care about one another and want to see each other succeed.鈥
The ROTC program has provided Cyle with the opportunity to meet many friends and get involved on campus through the student organization, Student Veterans of America. 鈥淭he organization hosts meetings where there will be a guest speaker and someone to help with resume building for veterans specifically,鈥 he says. 鈥淭here are also many social events that bring us together, and we end up having a lot of fun.鈥
