Hello Everyone. My name is MSG Bruce Reeves. I was born in Westchester, Younkers, but I was raised in Montgomery, AL. I served over 31 years in the military, it was a great experience that taught me a lot about life and dealing with all different ethnics. I served 2 tours in Iraq-Desert Storm (1990-1991) and Operational Iraqi Freedom (2006-2007). I obtained my Business Administration Degree from Faulkner University in 2018.

It has been an honor and a pleasure while working as a JROTC Instructor since Feb 3,2020 here at Central Hayneville High School. We have different levels of cadets in JROTC. Let 1’s, Let 2’s, Let 3’s and Let 4’s. The Let’1’s are our first year cadets. They are actually going through the acclimation of JROTC, learning how to march which is part of drill and ceremonies, developing leadership skills and overall discipline traits. let 2’s- 2nd year, let 3’s- 3rd year and Let 4’s- 4 year cadets.

JROTC, which stands for Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps, in my personal opinion…is an excellent program for any student to learn life-long lessons skills that can make a huge impact on their lives after graduating from high school.

During my time in the military, while I was stationed at Fort Cavazos, Texas formally known as Fort Hood, Texas, I became a female mentor for my son’s Army JROTC Program. This is where I found my passion to teach, coach, and become an Army JROTC Instructor. I truly love motivating young people to become better citizens. It doesn’t matter if they go to a four-year college, go to technical school or join the military, as long as these scholars are productive members of our community, that is success to me!!
