[EDITORIAL] Sa mga nagtutulak ng mandatory ROTC: Leave them kids alone!

Nico Villarete

“ Nakakagaling ng mental health issues ” ang ROTC. 

Maraming napamura sa henerasyon naming dumanas ng sapilitang pagsasanay sa Reserve Officers’ Training Corps nang marinig ang pahayag ni Defense Secretary Carlito Galvez. Obvious ba? Walang alam ang kalihim sa mental health.

Ayon mismo sa medical experts, makasasama pa nga sa mental health ang pagpuwersa na mag-ROTC ang kabataan. Sabi nga ng mental health advocate na si Dr. Gia Sison, “Creating a psychological safe space definitely includes choices and not forces.”

Para maintindihan natin paano mag-isip si Galvez, narito ang buong sipi ng kanyang pahayag sa Senado: ’Yun ang pagkakaiba po [ng ROTC] sa NSTP (National Service Training Program) – ang experience training talaga pong naisasapuso niya po ang lahat ng ginagawa niya. ’Yung survival instinct na’ndoon. So ’yung sinasabi nating mental problem, it can be cured, kasi ’yung frustration tolerance ng tao, tataas (emphasis is ours).

Survival instinct? Frustration tolerance? Ano ba ang balak nilang ipagawa sa mga mag-aaral? Isang pulutong ba ng mga Rambo sa kagubatan ang gusto nilang malikha?

Matagal nang na-debunk ang “tough love” bilang mainam na parenting style. At bilang isang anak na dumanas ng “tough love” mula kay Rodrigo Duterte, hindi ba dapat ay gagap ito ni Education Secretary at Vice President Sara Duterte ?

At ano ang magpapagaling sa “mental health” ng kabataan, Secretary Galvez? Ito ba ang borderline sadistic methods ng Philippine Military Academy at Philippine National Police Academy na may mahabang listahan ng hazing victims at psychological harms? 

Naaalala pa ng mga kalalakihan sa henerasyong nasa edad singkuwenta-pataas na dumanas ng ROTC ang paulit-ulit nilang narinig: Obey first before you question. 

At ano ang ang nututuhan nilang nagbigay sa kanila ng bentahe sa buhay ? Wala. Hindi pa uso ang sunscreen noon kaya’t laging sunog ang kalahati ng kanilang mukha sa maghapong pagkakabilad sa araw.

Thanks but no thanks, Secretary Galvez. Hindi kailangan ng aming mga anak o nakababatang kapatid na mabilad sa araw nang walang kapararakan, habang sina-psychological conditioning na maging robot o yes-men. 

Higit kailanman ngayong age of disinformation, kailangan nilang matutong maging mapanuri at mag-analisa – hindi maging mindless robot na “mataas ang frustration tolerance.” 

Mataas na ang frustration tolerance nila sa araw-araw na trapik, sa araw-araw na paghihigpit ng sinturon ng mga magulang na nakukuba sa taas ng bilihin, sa araw-araw na pakikipaglaban sa urban jungles na malupit, maramot, at biased sa mayaman. Hindi na nila kailangan ng dagdag na problema at gastusin .

Para sa ibang walang magulang sa bahay dahil nagtatrabahong OFW sa abroad, mataas na ang frustration tolerance nila sa kawalan ng pagmamahal at pagkalinga.

At lahat ng ito, sa umaatikabong halagang P61.2 billion ? Baka naman may gusto lang kumita, mga ginoo?

Higit kailanman, sa panahong talamak ang korupsiyon, anong values ang ituturo ng ROTC? Ang maging bulag, pipi, at bingi?

At alam ’nyo ba kung bakit na-scrap ang ROTC sa college? Dahil sa pagkamatay ni Mark Welson Chua , isang estudyante ng University of Santo Tomas na nag-expose sa korupsiyon sa ROTC program. Itinapon siya ng mga officers ng ROTC sa Pasig River nang nakatali ang kamay at paa at nakabusal ang bibig. Ayon sa autopsy, buhay pa siya nang itinapon, kaya’t dumanas siya ng marahas na pagkamatay.

Sabi naman ng ROTC advocate na si Senador Bato dela Rosa , dating hepe ng pulisya, “Baby na nga, ibe-baby mo pa nang husto? Baby sila forever. Kailangan talaga training.”

Mr. Dela Rosa, ito ba ang idea ’nyo ng “huwag ibe-baby”? Given ang track-record mo sa tokhang, ikaw nga siguro ang poster boy ng ROTC – mindless and unquestioning. 

Magtuturo ba ang ROTC ng respeto sa kapwa? Magtuturo ba ito ng kahalagahan ng human rights? Tanungin natin si Bato.

At kasama raw pati kababaihan ? Matitiyak ba ng sistemang bulok na hindi mamamanyak ang mga batang-batang dalaga?

At tandaan natin, ang ipino-propose na ROTC ay para sa first year at second year college students – mga kabataang fresh out of high school. Ganito rin ang istratehiya nina Adolf Hitler at Benito Mussolini na nagtayo ng youth armies upang mapabilis ang militaristic transformation ng kanilang mga lipunan. 

Gusto ba ng defense officials na makontrol ang kabataan sa panahong impressionable ang kanilang mga utak at hindi pa ganap ang kanilang value formation? Para ba maging utak-pulbura din tulad nila? Again, no thank you!

Sinuma ng tweet ng isang student leader matapos ang State of the Nation Address ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ang argumento laban sa ROTC: Ayaw natin ng isang “ culture of impunity, violence, and blind obedience ” sa kabataan.

Isa lang ang masasabi namin sa mga naglalako ng mandatory ROTC: leave them kids alone! – Rappler.com

What is ROTC?

If there are three words which can fully encompass the definition of Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC), it will be: defense, preparation, and nation. 

ROTC is primarily defined as a military-allied program that is propounded in various universities and colleges, whether international or local. According to Moody (2020), it equips students with military trainings as they earn their respective degrees. To be more specific, this program is inclined to prepare them to serve the country.

In the local setup, ROTC is legally articulated in Sections 38-39 of the Republic Act No. 7077, which is also known as the Citizen Armed Forces of the Philippines Reservist Act of 1991. It is also said to be in accordance with the 1987 Constitution and the National Defense Act. 

The five basic learnings and competencies in ROTC are lead, shoot, move, navigate, and communicate, in line with the Department of Military Science and Tactics of University of the Philippines Diliman (2020).

Considering its goal to strengthen the national defense of the Philippines, it is indeed perfect in picture. The former mismanagement and the currently planned mandate of the said program, however, are something to be alarmed of.

We need more military power, pro-ROTC Filipinos say

The decades-long civil war between the Philippine military troops and terrorists in the Southern part of the archipelago urges many to support the mandatory ROTC to senior high school and college students. 

A 2019 Pulse Asia survey on Filipinos showed that 1,440 out of 1,800 are in favor of the implementation of ROTC. Meanwhile, 207 respondents disagreed with the proposal.

Geopolitical tension between Philippines and China, as well, instills fear of war rooting the highly-contested West Philippine Sea. The World Bank Data records Beijing’s value of active military personnels at 2,695,000 in 2018, as Manila fell short with 153,350.

Secretary Delfin Lorenzana of the Department of National Defense (DND) expressed support to the Mandatory ROTC following vice presidential aspirant Sara Duterte’s calls for obligatory military service of Filipinos 18 and above.

"We in the DND support the mandatory military service of 18-year-old Filipinos. There are several advantages: First, the military will have a ready and steady trained pool of reservists to defend the country and do HADR (humanitarian assistance and disaster relief) work; second, the training and discipline that they will acquire will make them better citizens; third, service to the country will be inculcated in them," says Lorenzana.

Issues surrounding the mandatory program

The supposed mandatory program was made compulsory after a student of University of Santo Tomas (UST) Mark Chua was kidnapped and killed for exposing corruption behind the ROTC.

Chua with his fellow cadet, Romulo Yumul, disclosed ROTC anomalies on The Varsitarian titled “Struggle Against the System” in its Feb. 21, 2001 issue.

Chua and Yumul formally filed a complaint against corruption surrounding the UST-ROTC, a ground for the relief of Maj. Demy Tejares.

Mark Chua was found lifeless in Pasig River on March 18, 2001 after the story was published. In 2004, ROTC cadet Arnufo Aparri Jr. was found guilty of killing Chua.

Ever since, college students were free to choose between ROTC, Literary Training, and Civil Welfare Training System through the Republic Act 9163, or the National Service Training Program Act of 2001.

Opposition solons resist proposals of reviving the mandatory ROTC as it will “violate their constitutional right,” add expenses to parents and students by buying costly uniforms, and “only teaches obedience to abusive ROTC officials.”

Army ROTC Essay Examples with Commentary

LTC Robert Kirkland

8 minute read

The following are winning four-year scholarship essays from Army ROTC applicants we have worked with in the past at ROTC Consulting. We will provide commentary at the end of each essay as to why each answer is effective. You can find our previous post about building a successful essay here.

Army ROTC Essay #1

Consider carefully, and then state below in the space provided why you wish to enroll in the Army ROTC Program. Indicate in your statement how you believe your own objectives in life are related to the education and training offered by Army ROTC and what a career obligation means to you.

• Winning Answer:

I believe that American values and our way of life are worth fighting for. One of the finest ways one can demonstrate this commitment is by becoming an officer in the United States Army. This commitment is not something to be taken lightly and I needed to explore what the duties and responsibilities of both a cadet and a lieutenant were. I had a plan.

I visited the Somerset Army National Guard unit near my home in New Jersey. There, I was introduced to a group of officers, non-commissioned officers, and cadets. I learned from my visit that officers lead by example and need to take care of their soldiers. Non-commissioned officers are the “backbone” of the Army and it is important that new lieutenants learn from their sergeants. Since I am interested in the National Guard after I commission, they told me about the civilian jobs that I could pursue in the State Police or the FBI while I was in the National Guard. It was really inspirational to see how National Guard officers and enlisted both serve their community and the Nation.

On my visit to Army ROTC at Drexel University, I spoke to the PMS and what struck me was the importance for future leaders to become proficient in basic soldier skills and troop leading procedures. The ROOs at TCU and Wake Forest reinforced this message. I know that by mastering these tasks, I will be a successful lieutenant and the best leader I can be no matter what path I choose in life.

Once I become a lieutenant, I hope to deploy overseas. An important aspect is to understand the local culture in the execution of my duties as an officer. I hope that my intended major of international business helps me gain a deeper understanding of the people I will be interacting with overseas.

Overall, through my experience in visiting both a National Guard and several ROTC programs as well as from my current activities, I understand what it takes to be an Army officer and I am prepared for this challenge.

• Commentary on what makes this essay successful:

Notice that this essay is not a rundown of what the candidate did in high school or a listing of achievements. This prompt is most effectively answered by showing things that you did to learn more about being both a cadet and an officer in the United States Army.

This can be demonstrated by letting Army ROTC know what research you did on the internet, who you talked to (both cadets and officers) and especially what things you did to visit ROTC programs and actual Army units (such as Army National Guard or Army Reserve Units) to talk with both officers and noncommissioned officers to learn the duties and responsibilities of a lieutenant.

In addition, did you take the time to visit an Army ROTC program? If so, what did you learn? Are you ready for the challenges of Army ROTC? Tell the board members that you took the time to visit and learn more about Army ROTC and are excited about being a cadet.

Army ROTC Essay #2

State below in the space provided how you spend your time in a typical week during the school year. For example, how many extra hours do you spend: at school, during homework, engaged in athletic activities, engaged in extracurricular activities (i.e. clubs), engaged in volunteer work, or other (explain).

I am a very busy and focus driven individual. From the classroom to the athletic field I am constantly working to hone my skills.

Every day I am up early, whether I have a specific task or just looking to get a head start on the day. I arrive at school an hour early to get academic help, complete assignments, or just relax and get my mind right for the day. This is an important part of my routine.

During a normal day of school, I take countless notes, tests and quizzes as well as attend weekly club meetings. It is almost guaranteed that I will have at least two club meetings per week during break. Some days my lunchtime or study hall time is spent in a teacher’s classroom solidifying my understanding of the subject matter. After the academic day, my real day begins. I have 50 minutes in between my last class and athletic practice to do homework and see teachers. I utilize this time every day even if I don’t have questions in order to gain more insight from there instruction.

As the captain of the varsity cross country team and tennis team, I am tasked with always showing a positive attitude and setting the standard in regard to work ethic. I am responsible for keeping the team focused and working hard. Practice typically lasts for an hour and half depending on the intensity. After cross country, I head straight to tennis practice on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Although tennis practice is only three days a week, it is a year-round commitment for me. I am often on the courts on Tuesdays and Fridays as well when my schoolwork is manageable. My school days last until 7 pm, and then I get to go home.

When I get home and have showered and eaten dinner, I begin my homework and academic preparation for the next day. I often work on papers or projects at this time, and I always manage to spend time with my family. After I have completed everything I need for the next day, I get a good night’s rest and prepare to do it again.

This essay is fairly standard, and it is important to let Army ROTC know that you are a dynamic individual who is busy doing a variety of activities that involve the range of scholar, athlete, leader activities. The more specific you can be about each of these areas, the stronger the essay.

Specifically avoid non-kinetic activities such as playing video games, TV watching, bystanding, or other events where you are not an active participant. Again, emphasize active scholar-athlete-leader events.

Army ROTC Essay #3

Please expand on any additional information outlining scholastic, athletic, and leadership achievements not otherwise annotated in the previous sections. Although you are not required to do so, you are highly encouraged to do so if applicable.

Ronald Reagan Presidential Leadership Institute : I recently had the honor of being selected to attend his Institute. I learned that leadership can mean more than being a role model, it can also mean being an instrument of change. Attending the Institute gave me the chance to meet a leader of a non-profit focusing on preventing drug overdoses. I saw how one person could make a difference and started a chapter on my own high school campus. A lot of students start their encounters with drugs through medications they find at home. I am working with the Behavioral Health Department to obtain kits that neutralize medications. Maybe we can prevent a future tragedy.

Eagle Scout : I was a leader in several capacities. The most challenging was being a leader for a group of new scouts on a camping trip to Death Valley. It was pretty frustrating at first to get everyone to fulfill their jobs, but eventually I helped them understand that we had to work together to make things run smoothly. My Eagle Scout project gave me the chance to oversee a project from start to finish. I built a much-needed library in my temple and it was extremely fulfilling.

Captain of Varsity Lacrosse and Basketball Team : I have also served as a leader for my sports teams. I am proud to be a captain and I take my responsibility seriously. I know my actions have an impact on the other players and am more aware of the need to be a good role model. The most challenging part of being a student athlete is managing my time so I can give school and my sports teams my best effort. I have been named a Scholar Athlete several times which demonstrates that I can manage my time effectively.

This is where you provide Army ROTC your “signature” accomplishments. The top three to four things you are most proud of. List each and then explain in a paragraph why this accomplishment is significant. In this way, you highlight to the selection committee clearly what you are most proud of and what they need to pay attention to. This is where you get to “brag” about yourself.

Final Thoughts on Army ROTC essays:

Essay #1 and Essay #3 are where you make your “money” sat the Army ROTC Scholarship Board. Essay #1 needs to show what effort you put in to learn more about Army ROTC and the duties and responsibilities of an Army lieutenant. Essay #3 is your signature accomplishments to demonstrate why you should be selected for a scholarship over someone else. Make sure you highlight only the most important things you have done.

If you do the above things, you are that much closer to winning an Army ROTC Scholarship!
