Welcome to the home of the Syracuse Cadet Squadron!

A public affairs workshop is being held at the Group HQ on Saturday, Nov 8. The course is ideal for commanders, public affairs officers, and mission information officers. For more information, or to sign up, visit the PAO Workshop web site.

Two Syracuse Cadet Squadron cadets received honors at the 2008 New York Wing Leadership Encampment this past month at Stratton ANGB.

C/SSgt Sarah Schreiber was named the honor cadet for Alpha flight, and C/MSgt Austin Pearce was named the honor cadet for Delta flight.

More information about this year’s encampment can be found here.

The Summer 2008 edition of Wheels Up!, the New York Wing newsletter, is now available here (PDF).

The squadron will be holding a bivouac on 12-14 September at Highland Forest. The activity is open to all cadets and senior members in the Group.

A Ground Team Member Level 3 training course will be provided, in which the majority of the tasks for this qualification will be signed off.

Students of this course must have the General Emergency Services rating before the bivouac, and will not be allowed to participate in this training without this qualification. This is acquired by completing your Curry achievement (or Level I for senior members), and passing both the CAPT 116 and ICS 100 tests. Both of these tests can be taken by logging in to your e-services account at www.capnhq.gov.
