Worcester Cadet Squadron

mitment to building their leadership skills and resilience to stress. We will build teamwork, moral values, and teach the importance of having discipline and paying attention to detail. In team building exercises, we will bring cadets beyond their comfort zone, erode shyness and impatience, and do things that will prove that they can accomplish things that they thought they could never do before. Cadets will be proud to share the vast leadership and moral knowledge they've learned with their family and friends to better their community. At our Squadron activities, every member is part of one team who will try their best to accomplish Civil Air Patrol's missions. Being individualistic and not team oriented is highly discouraged. Many of our activities such as rappelling, Orientation Flights, Drill and Ceremonies, Search and Rescue Exercises (SAREXs) heavily rely on everyone working together. By being heavily motivated to working as a team, cadets will feel their role in the Squadron to be more significant than if they were working in a non-team oriented environment. Everyone has a significant role, since every cadet has the potential to better their unit in a vast amount of ways physically, morally, structurally, etc. The leaders in our unit will mentor and guide every cadet to show their commitment to excellence. If you're not able to trust and have confidence in your fellow cadets, then you are not able to work effectively as a team member. As a leader who is dedicated to making sure our Squadron goes in the right direction, I'll strive to do my best to build trust and confidence in my team. The leaders of Worcester Cadet Squadron will encourage cadets to have confidence and trust in one another by doing team building exercises. When you're part of the official auxiliary of the United States Air Force, you can expect to have self-discipline instilled. Discipline is defined as "the practice of training people to obey rules or a code of behavior, using punishment to correct disobedience." In order for a team to carry out SAREX missions, morals, gun safety, and even day to day tasks they must be disciplined. At Worcester Cadet Squadron, we will train people to discipline themselves by using team building exercises and Drill and Ceremonies. Every member of our unit will give their best effort to uphold the Core Values and missions of CAP. Every leader will give their best effort to instruct and train their fellow cadets, even if those cadets give up on themselves. Written by C/CMSgt Bob Aubrey
