My NJROTC was dirt poor and struggled to even get a bus to go to a competition 30 miles away... But we did have sabers, i guess they used to have money long ago. We don't have a saber team so we just kinda keep inventory on them. We don't even hand them out to officers, there's only about 7 sabers anyway.
I hear my NJROTC isn't doing so well this year. Which is kind of proof that all the motivation was in my 4 years and not the others. I also believes it heralds a new generational gap. It went from 90's children to "turn of the century kids"
obvious differences are where my generation was spontaneous and peppy, this generation seems to be jaded and emo, unmotivated or lazy, or simply uninvolved. (this is a generalization and does not apply to any one person or area in particular.)
I'm starting to feel old when i ask these kids "Remember VR troopers? Remember Big Bad Beetle Borgs? Remember the original Power Rangers?" and they have no idea what i'm talking about...
some of the don't even remember
