Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFJROTC)
 GA-945 Bulldog Group

The success of AFJROTC would not be possible without the expertise and dedication of its Aerospace Science Instructors.

​

Officer instructors are retired officers who have at least a bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 20 years on active duty.  Over 90 percent of them have master’s degrees with backgrounds in teaching and many extensive experience working with youth groups.

​

Enlisted instructors are retired noncommissioned officers who have at least a bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 20 years on active duty.  All enlisted instructors have extensive experience in leadership, supply, administration, drill and ceremony, teaching, and many have extensive experience working with youth groups.

​

All AFJROTC instructors are deeply involved in their communities.  They teach AFJROTC aerospace science and leadership education curricula. They also serve as liaisons between the Air Force and civilian agencies in the aerospace field, and perform career and performance counseling for AFJROTC cadets.

​

Instructors help plan and support activities like drill competitions, marksmanship events, military balls, academic competitions, formal ceremonies and community service activities.  They also provide in-depth instruction to their cadets on the principles of leadership and management.

​

Instructors devote themselves to cadets in the classroom and during extensive extra-curricular activities. Their hard work and devotion have resulted in an AFJROTC program that’s highly acclaimed at the local and national level.
