So now junior ROTC is the latest hunting ground for pedophiles. I would have hoped for better from our former military leaders.

The school district declined to comment about the case, citing personnel confidentiality. Mr. Gibson did not respond to a message seeking comment.

There's the problem. It's a classic "He's in charge" <== / ==> situation. The military says the schools are supervising the instructors, and the schools are saying it's not their program, the military is responsible.

My first reaction is, if these former officers are preying on teenagers as JROTC instructors, how many female subordinates did they get away with preying on while they were on active duty?
