My JROTC instructor impacted my life in many ways. I was barely learning english and by then my father had passed away and my mother was in Nicaragua so, I had no one except God with me. I wanted to quit school and start working to provide for my mother since now she was a widow and she lived off washing clothes by hand for the neighbors. I hated that I couldn’t help her financially so I quit school for two month. My instructor found me in my Job and talked with me about my life and the future and God’s view of me. She help me get a part time job even though it didn’t pay as much as the one that I had it still help my mother in Nicaragua. Additionally my professor provided me with my meals at school and clothing since the money I earned it
