The Captain William Magill Chapter sponsored two JROTC awards this year. The Awards, along with a Bronze Medal, are presented to a Junior or Senior in High School in a JROTC program. This student must represent qualities of academic excellence, leadership, military discipline, dependability, patriotism and upright character in both speech and habits. These qualities exemplify the ideals on which our nation was founded.
