ROTC Nazi

A member of a JROTC program in high school who, even after leaving the class, still conducts himself in JROTC-specific manners, i.e. squaring his corners, marching, keeping military bearing in other classes, getting in step with someone when walking down the hall. Usually wears JROTC T-shirts all the time, but not always a concrete give-away. ROTC Nazi is a pretty gray area term, sometimes being an insult, sometimes a mark of honor. It was intended as an insult, but some cadets take it pretty well, a few even labeling themselves as ROTC Nazis.

(A JROTC cadet marches by, keeping military bearing)
John Doe: God look at that kid, even when he leaves ROTC his mind is still there.
Jane Doe: Yeah, what a ROTC Nazi.
(In this case, used as an insult)

(A cadet accidently squares his corner)
Cadet: God, I'm such a ROTC Nazi!
(In this case, used as something positive, or tolerable)
