Yes, you can enter JROTC (Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps) with a rank if you have prior experience in a similar program or military training. However, JROTC typically does not require prior military experience, and ranks may vary between units. New participants generally start at the lowest rank and progress based on participation, leadership, and performance within the program. It's best to check with your specific JROTC unit for their policies on rank recognition.
To earn an increased enlisted rank after completing basic training in the U.S. Military, a cadet must successfully complete at least two years in JROTC. This typically allows them to enter the military at a higher rank than a recruit who has not participated in JROTC. The exact rank advancement can vary by branch and specific program guidelines.

Hello, I am in the J.R.O.T.C. program, just in case. There is no official rank given to the assistant of any staff member, only to the member.
Technically, I need more information to answer your question. I'll try to give a broad answer, and if you want you can message specifics to me later.As far as I know, no JROTC can prevent you from joining CAP, and vice-versa. In fact, many encourage dual-enrollment.There are several perks to dual-enrollment; chief among them is that, regardless of when you join CAP, after two years of JROTC, if you can obtain a certificate from your JROTC instructor, you can advance in CAP at one rank per month up until the first officer rank [Second Lieutenant/Billy Mitchell Award] (you must still pass all tests and meet all requirements, the time limits are just lowered).In Air Force JROTC, you can wear the Curry Ribbon (first rank ribbon) and all officer rank ribbons on your AFJROTC uniform. In CAP, you can wear the top three ribbons from ANY (Navy, Marine, Army, or Air Force) JROTC program on your cadet uniform, so long as you are involved in that JROTC unit.As I said, message me for more detailed or in depth Q&A.

However, actual rank advancement in the military ultimately depends on various factors, including performance, qualifications, and service requirements.
Yes there is JROTC in Hawaii.
It makes no difference. If you have been in JROTC for 2 years (i think), then you get a rank advance no matter what branch you enlist in. If you enlist in the Army, you will leave basic training as a PFC. I am also in AFJROTC but i am either joining the army or navy.
