NHS NJROTC Takes Part In Auburn Drill Meet
March 8, 2013
Northview High School’s NJROTC recently competed in a drill meet at Auburn University, finishing fourth overall against 12 schools from Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Louisiana.
The unit competed in multiple events which included a personnel inspection, academic test, basic drill and physical fitness.
“The outstanding results by the unit was the culmination of a lot of hard work over the past several weeks by each cadet that competed. The competition is always tough at these meets but the cadets were focused and determined to succeed. As always they were great representatives of Northview and the community,” said Charlie C. Code, Capt USN (ret), Northview instructor.
The unit also toured the Auburn campus and the nearby Tuskegee Airman Museum.

That’s great guys. NJROTC was the one thing at north view that I enjoyed being a partof 98-2002 great instructors were there when iin was there we placed 1st in armed drill against pace, Milton, gulf breeze, escambia, I loved it. Congratulations again. NJROTC can instill character and morals in you that today’s society cannot if you allow it. Keep up the hard work. And as an my old instructor always said ” perfect practice makes perfect”
Congratulations on a job well done. Also special congrats to the color guard team which place first.

Thanks to all the parents who drove their kids to practice, all the cadets who brought someone else with them to practice , to Captain Code & Chief Simpkins for coming up early to be there for these kids.
