NOTE: This post is a recap of the classes taught within Charlie Flight for the night of June 22nd. It provides basic information of what was covered as well as listing tasks that Charlie Flight cadets are expected to accomplish prior to the next meeting.
Charlie flight had a class on promotions. To get your first promotion you need to take a Leadership chapter one test, a Cadet Physical Fitness Test (CPFT), a drill test, and a review board. Review boards and drill tests will be done on 4th and 1st Tuesdays. Leadership and aerospace tests are done on 3rd and 4th Tuesdays. Lastly, the CPFT will be held on 2nd Tuesdays before our meeting at Buena Park High School at 5:30 pm.
When you are taking a review board and are told to report in, you will follow this basic out line: “Sir/Ma’am Cadet (grade) (name) reporting as ordered.” You will salute to the the highest ranking person in the room. When you are finished with your review board you will stand up, salute the highest ranking person, when they salute you back you leave.
For first Tuesday of next month, please research an aerospace current event and prepare a presentation on it. Practice saluting and facing movements in front of a mirror. Next Tuesday we will be meeting at Camelot: http://www.golfland.com/anaheim/index.asp
