It is looking like my DS will attend University of North Florida, the cross-town affiliate of Jacksonville University ("JU"), and will apply to the NROTC or NROTC-MO programs at JU as a college programmer. I am wondering (a) Is the Navy continuing to do NSI at Great Lakes (there had been some speculation that they were going to discontinue the program and go back to indoctrination at the local units like they did prior to 2019) and, (b) if so, what are the chances that DS will get to go to NSI next summer as a college programmer? Is it only for scholarship recipients?
We know from following the JU NROTC Unit on Facebook that they do an intense week of indoc. for incoming freshman locally at JU. If DS does not get to go to NSI, that would adequate, I am sure. Also, he is XO of his NJROTC Battalion, so he has already learned quite a bit of what they teach at NSI in four year of NJROT (Eg., I lent him my dress shoes for the homecoming dance this weekend, and the shine he put on them was blinding. LOL)
