In the info box about a JROTC unit it states one of three things about the units status.
The unit is ether
- Pending
- Active
- Decommissioned
Pending means it is awaiting activation orders; for example the school has not been built yet but a JROTC is planned to be there.
Active means the unit is fully functional.
Decommissioned means there once was such a unit but it was shut down.
