Importance Of Jrotc

Another year in Jrotc and I learn about many new and important things. For examples like the mission of Jrotc, the Jrotc creed and preamble, Violence Prevention, Amendments and citizenship skills.The mission of the JROTC program is, “To motivate young people to become better citizens,”.Jrotc is a good program for young people who are trying to build leadership and character. Also, Jrotc is a student run organization. Therefore it's teaching kids how to become a leader and improving their responsibilities skills too.

The Army J.R.O.T.C. creed is a perfect example to show how it builds character. In the cadet creed, it states that "I will not lie, cheat, or steal and will always be accountable for my actions and deeds," is a great way to show character. Every cadet says this creed to help build and to maintain character at all times. Another way JROTC helps build character is by the preamble. The preamble states “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America”.

    The Preamble itself is actually a very short, but well written introduction to the rest of the document. It contains very general and broad claims about the purpose of the Constitution, mainly, to create a national government which is not only capable of governing, but capable of governing well.

    After the Constitution was written in 1787, many believed that the new government would still be giving too much power to the people running it instead of to the people. A group lead by Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams, and James Monroe called the Anit-Federalists went against the Constitution because they believed it gave too many powers to congress and did not specify enough human rights.

In fear that the states would not ratify the Constitution, James Madison composed a bill of nine articles of 20 amendments that limited power to congress to be added to the Constitution on July 8, 1789. Twelve of these were selected by congress…
