Blog #17 Drugs, they can do a body good?

Cadets, as part of your assignment this week, you have to post your class information about your:
Drug you are teaching about
Class Group Name
Group leader's Name
Members Names

Once you have finished this part of  your work, you need to post a recent
story or news video about something related to your drug. The most
current big story about Heroin is the death of the actor Philip Seymour Hoffman.
He was found in his apartment in Manhattan with 70 small bags of heroin, 5 syringes, Dr. prescribed medications and a syringe in his left arm when he was found dead.  Sometimes good people make bad choices and this one finally caught up with him. Here is a news video on his death:

Blog #16 First Aid and saving a persons life

Welcome back to your second semester of JROTC as a LET2.  For those of you that did exceptionally well, I hope you were satisfied with your semester grades. For those of you whom were not, I hope you take the challenge to improve and make the changes that you need to in order to raise you grades.  This week's Blog is all about saving a persons life.  There are many ways that this can be accomplished as you are going to learn in class. Your task this week is to select one of the ways to save a persons life and explain why it is important to know.  Once you have done this, you must find a news story video or an online article that tells a story about a person saving another person's life using the first aid method that you selected.  Good luck and don't forget to comment on your peer's work as well in order to get full credit for your assignment this week.  Here is the story that I selected on Life Saving and it is a great way to demonstrate what Good Samaritans can do.
