Why did I enroll into JROTC?

Well there are four reasons as to why i enrolled into JROTC. One being that because of a bet an old friend made. Two because I wasn't happy with my physical health. Three I needed to improve on being more confident. And my fourth reason is that I wanted to gain more responsibility in everything I did.

More on the first reason as to why I joined JROTC was of a bet. Well the bet was that I wouldnt be man enough to join the program that I would just quit the first week of it.

As of last year I had to take care of my stuff in school because grades were dropping and things needed to change ASAP. So later when I joined the program I kept everything in order in my bookbag and grades. And the program made me go for more in grades.
