What's a cadet unit?

We have them in the US also. Its called JROTC. Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps. Students learn about the military. Here it is a voluntary class students can take. I would worry also if it was a mandatory class my kid had to take. Like D.A.R.E..

Sorry but cadets are no reason to worry. I did the cadet thing and here i am. Cadets are a wonderful program for economically disadvantaged youth. I spent 9 years and manged to travel all over and even over seas. I walked away with a pilots license, gliders license, solid knowledge of firearms and there safety, scholarships for university, and so many great memories and other experiences.
