The following are guidelines for the initial uniform issue, and turn-in of NJROTC uniforms upon dis-enrollment from NJROTC:
1. After a uniform issue is complete, each cadet will be given a custody card to be signed by a parent or guardian and returned to the Naval Science classroom as soon as possible.
b. Upon dis-enrollment/graduation from the program, all uniform items (including belts, garrison caps, and service cap covers) should be professionally dry cleaned prior to turn-in.
c. The following items need not be returned:
-shoes (oxfords and pumps)
-ribbons
-rank insignia
-name tag
-Combo Cover
Upon turning in uniforms, your cadet will receive a copy of the custody card indicating a cleared NJROTC account. (The total appearing at the bottom of the items list should be $.00 in order for an account to be cleared).
It is important that you turn in your uniforms directly to the Naval Science Instructors or the Supply Officer in order for you to receive your Custody Card Receipt which will be your proof of a cleared NJROTC account. Turning your uniforms into the school office will not guarantee that your account will be properly cleared.
If a cadet’s uniforms have not been turned in, or the account is not properly cleared, his/her name will appear on the school’s fines list the day after dis-enrollment.
*NOTE: PLEASE SEE THE UNIFORM CARE INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED IN THE CADET HANDBOOK FOR PROPER CARE OF YOUR CADET’S NAVY UNIFORM. CADETS ARE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR ALL UNIFORMS DAMAGED BEYOND SERVICEABILITY IF THE DAMAGE IS NOT DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR.*
