Drill is an integral part of the Marine Corps Junior ROTC program. Drill teaches good discipline, enhances concentration and builds esprit de corps in a unit. In addition to being a part of the MCJROTC cadet curriculum, a drill team and drill competition is a very worthwhile cadet activity. Drill competition may be conducted from the local to the very competitive national level. Not all cadets will qualify to be a member of the Marine Corps JROTC drill team. Membership on the drill team requires a great deal of dedication and practice.
