NPOV?

I can't decide if the phrase "ordinary civilian college or university" is NPOV or not  :) Might be because I graduated from one of those ordinary schools with an NROTC scholarship :) DukeEGR93 05:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Probably just a "civilian college or university" is more NPOV, Lt. Cmdr. Im on my way into it sir.--omnipotence407 (talk) 02:26, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

If you are going Navy option, no. If you are going Marine Option, yes. --omnipotence407 (talk) 12:04, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Photograph -- STA-21?

Is the current lead photograph, File:US_Navy_NRTOC_040508-N-2383B-377.jpg, best representative of NROTC graduates? The three ensigns most visible have chests full of medals including Navy Good Conduct Medals. Are these graduates of STA-21? While that is part of NROTC, it is not the most common path, so perhaps a more representative photo could be found, or perhaps the caption could be extended. As it is, the photograph gives the incorrect impression that the typical NROTC graduate will be commissioned with a chest full of medals. (It is also used as the lead photograph at Reserve Officers' Training Corps.) 124.157.247.144 (talk) 00:01, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

I would agree, it gives the appearance that ROTC graduates leave with a chest of medals. Furthermore, both the people primary in the photo are wearing their ribbons incorrectly. In the U.S. Navy, ribbons when worn on the right chest are placed in reverse order of the order worn when combined with medals. The senior most ribbon is to the center of the person.
