Book excerpt: This is the only comprehensive study of the Cadet Movement. It is a military and social history of the Junior Training Corps (the forerunner of the Combined Cadet Force), the Sea Cadet Corps, the Army Cadet Force and the Air Training Corps. Today's Army and Air Cadet Organisations were founded in response to the threat of war. Indeed, the history of the Cadet Movement from the threat of invasion in 1860 to the end of the Second World War is inextricably bound up with war. The army cadets were officially recognised when they became part of the Volunteers Movement - forerunner of the T.A. By 1910, the Navy League had amalgamated the sea cadet units to form a national organisation. Many boys joined the cadets as a response to the Boer War, and army cadets went to war in South Africa. In 1914 cadet training was geared to preparing boys for full-time military training in the Services and for combat. In the 1930s Britain once again prepared for war and thousands of youths responded to the country's needs by joining the cadets. The Second World War saw the inauguration of the Air Cadets. Surprisingly, many cadets units participated in the direct defence of the country.The Cadet Movement had two aims: the production of responsible citizens and the preparation of cadets for the defence of the country. This book demonstrates that the Cadet Movement was much more than just another uniformed youth organisation. The cadets, their volunteer officers and instructors responded to the needs of the country even - especially -in times of war.
Download or read book Army ROTC Cadet Handbook written by Army Rotc Rotc and published by . This book was released on 2008-12-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MISSION: The mission of Army ROTC is to commission the future officer leadership of the United States Army. We strive to meet that mission by offering a classroom curriculum that focuses on developing bright, capable college students into leaders. In our leadership lab, students are given the opportunity to apply the skills they learn in a tactical setting. Since physical fitness is a necessary quality for a future officer, cadets participate in physical training. Army ROTC prepares you for a lifetime of successes. While earning a degree in the field of your choice, you will receive leadership training in judgement, decision-making, values, ethics, communications, critical thinking, management and analysis. We strive to impart all cadets with a sense of self-motivation, discipline, initiative, service, patriotism, and integrity. PURPOSE OF THE HANDBOOK:The purpose of this handbook is to provide general information on Army ROTC. This handbook gives an overview of our program, illustrates how the uniforms are worn, and should answer most questions new cadets have about being a cadet in the Tiger Battalion. This handbook should become a well-worn reference and is designed to be used throughout a cadet's career. It is intended to be a clearinghouse for basic information and should be referenced whenever a question arises. OVERVIEW: The Mizzou Army ROTC program offers classroom instruction, a weekly leadership laboratory, physical training (PT), periodic field exercises, and several extra curricular opportunities. A cadet in the Basic Course (also known as Military Science and Leadership I and II), can expect to spend one to two hours a week in class, two hours a week in lab, and three hours a week conducting PT with the battalion. Cadets in the Advanced Course (also known as Military Science and Leadership III and IV) spend twice as much time in class, fill leadership and instructor positions at lab and PT, and devote time to preparing leadership assessments and evaluations.

Book excerpt: For 13-year-old Cairns high school student, Willy Williams, life is not going smoothly. He has developed a passionate interest in girls, particularly the beautiful and mysterious Petra. But Willy is also bedevilled by temptation and is torn between his desire for Petra, admiration for red-head Barbara, and hopeful lust for Marjorie, his best friend's sister. Worse, Willy has a secret enemy who makes his life a misery, as do the school bullies who pick on him at every opportunity. Complicating matters, his own poor choices do not help. Were the makeshift rockets and drone really good ideas? Willy is also fascinated in all things that fly and is an avid model aircraft hobbyist. As a First-Year member of the Australian Air Force Cadets, his dream is to one day become a pilot in the RAAF. But even as an Air Cadet he has enemies and challenges. But when a major crisis happens, his skills at piloting radio-controlled model aircraft is vital. Will his model of the Red Baron's triplane bring him rewards or end his cadet career in disgrace?

Book excerpt: The instant classic that changed the way we saw World War II and an entire generation of Americans, from the beloved journalist whose own iconic career has lasted more than fifty years. In this magnificent testament to a nation and her people, Tom Brokaw brings to life the extraordinary stories of a generation that gave new meaning to courage, sacrifice, and honor. From military heroes to community leaders to ordinary citizens, he profiles men and women who served their country with valor, then came home and transformed it: Senator Daniel Inouye, decorated at the front, fighting prejudice at home; Martha Settle Putney, one of the first black women to serve in the newly formed WACs; Charles Van Gorder, a doctor who set up a MASH-like medical facility in the middle of battle, then opened a small clinic in his hometown; Navy pilot and future president George H. W. Bush, assigned to read the mail of the enlisted men under him, who says that in doing so he “learned about life”; and many other laudable Americans. To this generation that gave so much and asked so little, Brokaw offers eloquent tribute in true stories of everyday heroes in extraordinary times. Praise for The Greatest Generation “Moving . . . a tribute to the members of the World War II generation to whom we Americans and the world owe so much.”—The New York Times Book Review “Full of wonderful, wrenching tales of a generation of heroes. Tom Brokaw reminds us what we are capable of as a people. An inspiring read for those who wish their spirits lifted.”—Colin L. Powell “Offers welcome inspiration . . . It is impossible to read even a few of these accounts and not be touched by the book’s overarching message: We who followed this generation have lived in the midst of greatness.”—The Washington Times “Entirely compelling.”—The Wall Street Journal
