Staff Officers

Iron Eagles JROTC Cadet Staff  

In-depth job requirements are located under the Cadet Resources tab (Creed, Ranks & Promotion Requirements).

Each year, the battalion selects a new cadet staff. Staff members have been trained specifically for their position, and either earned their position by going in front of a board or simply showing strength in the job they have been given. Each member of the staff plays an important role in the battalion.
