Drill Knowledge Packet Knowledge and Bearing Are Necessary for A

Drill Knowledge Packet Knowledge and bearing are necessary for a successful inspection. Inspectors will attempt to ruin a cadets composure (making them laugh, cry, etc.). Do not show emotion in any manner, especially fear. Do not attempt at humor and do not appear defiant. Remain respectful and answer questions to the best of your ability. If you do not know the answer to a question, respond with: “Sir/Ma’am (or proper title), this cadet does not know the answer at this time.” Use your judgment on questions asked that you probably could or should know and answer with confidence. For example-If you are asked the age of a cadet in your platoon and do not know the correct answer, give as close to an accurate guess as possible. Because you are sounding off the cadet spoken of will hopefully hear you and respond with the same answer. Remember: Sound off and answer in a steady pace with a firm voice. Do not yell. Do not allow the inspector to rush you. Repeat the question asked before giving your answer. The more time you take the fewer questions you will be asked. Listen to questions being asked and answered around you, especially in your squad. You might get the same question. Always make sure to pick a spot beyond the inspector. Focus on that spot for the duration of the inspection, even when an inspector is not in front of you. Never look around. 1 The Junior ROTC Cadet Creed I am an Army JROTC Cadet. I will always conduct myself to bring credit to my family, country, school and the Corps of Cadets. I am loyal and patriotic. I am the future of the United States of America. I do not lie, cheat or steal and will always be accountable for my actions and deeds. I will always practice good citizenship and patriotism.
