Four Sea Cadets very ably represented the Alamo Battalion at the San Antonio Back2School Expo on August 3, as they told students and their parents about their varying Sea Cadet experiences, how to become a cadet, and how the Sea Cadet Corps is helping them prepare for the future.

Fall is a great time to join the Sea Cadets. New Cadets will get to know their shipmates, be able to earn their uniforms by completing their Basic Military Readiness Training, and pass their Physical Readiness Tests. By completing these tasks, cadets are eligible to attend Sea Cadet “boot camp” at locations throughout the US. New cadets can participate in drills during the school year, which include September’s trip to the National Museum of the Pacific War, October’s rifle marksmanship training, Firefighting, camping and more. Anyone who is interested in joining us should review our Join Us page and contact our Public Affairs Officer to arrange a visit.
Many thanks to the Cadets and adult volunteers who helped with the Back2School Expo.
