| Abstract | In this article, the author discusses the military recruiting in high schools that has been a mainstay of the so-called all-volunteer armed forces from the start. High school kids are at an age when being a member of an identifiable group with a grand mission and a shared spirit--and never underestimate a distinctive uniform--is of exaggerated importance, which gang recruiters in big cities note with interest and exploit with skill. Here, he shows how recruiters enlist high school students and presents programs as means of military recruitment in high schools, junior highs and middle schools. One of the recruitment tools that has become a powerful recruiting device is Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC), the high school version of ROTC established by an act of Congress in 1916 "to develop citizenship and responsibility in young people."
