Major Payne stars Damon Wayans in the title role as a gun-ho Marine who, once peace is declared in South America, is sent home to start over. He arrives at a school to teach JROTC to a bunch of unlucky kids and, in a few short weeks, makes it miraculously work! Some silly moments here and there along with some violence and degradation, but the plot sticks with the tough soldier guy until the end. It's OK if you enjoy barracks, salutes, etc. with a dash of humor. Fall in, people.

Answer: Madison is not a military academy. It is a boarding school and Major Payne has been put in charge of their JROTC program. It is, however unlikely that those cadets, or the blind cadet at the end of the film, would be admitted into a JROTC program. The Code of Federal Regulations states that the JROTC program is designed for "physically fit" students. Tiger is also much too young to be allowed to participate, you must be in at least the 7th grade to participate. Madison is apparently making exceptions to allow basically anyone that wants to participate and that would not be allowed in real life.
