g 77 7 77777 7 77777 7 7 FWFJRCDTC The Arkansas 53rd Air Force .I unior ROTC Squadron was established at Cabot High School in the Spring of 1970 by agreement between the Cabot School District and the United States Air Force. The AFJ ROTC curriculum includes aerospace related academic instruction and leadership training. The Aerospace Education Instructor is Lt. Col. Raymond R. Mendonsa and the Assistant Aerospace Education Instructor if TSgt Joe McCollum, both retured from active duty iwth the Air Force. The cadet squadron is managed and operated by the cadet officers and cadet non-commissioned officers. It is through this cadet organization that the cadets learn to apply management and leadership skills. In addition to academic activities, the Department of Aerospace Education accomplished other things as well. A variety of field trips were taken, parties and dances given, fund-raising drives held, and participation in every campus activity was part of every cadets' training. A Junior High School Color Guard using young ladies was also formed. The squadron also accomplished a world-wide first among Air Force Junior ROTC units.-Every member of the squadron became rocket-qualified and was awarded the Rocket Badge in recognition of this feat. Members of the squadron also participated in a variety of community service projects . . . from building a playground for the Elementary school to parties for the aged. They also collected food for the needy and supported other worthwhile causes. This type of activity was truly leadership and good citizenship in action. A Squadron Drill Team was formed in order for the cadets to participate in more activities. We also held events in conjunction with another ROTC unit, located in Jacksonville, Arkansas. These included pizza parties, dances, and skating meets. All in all, it was an extremely busy year for all of the cadets. They should all be commended for their efforts and their devotion to the community and to the country. AEROSPACE EDUCATION I The first year AE-I cadets start their study with the Pioneers of Flight, followed by Aerospace Environment, Space Travel, and Aircraft of Today. The purpose of these subjects is to build a foundation of the study of Air Power at a more advanced level in subsequent courses. Individual drill and flight marching as well as proper wear of the uniform and military customs and courtesies is stressed for the new cadet. Command and leadership positions are held in AE-I within the flight. AEROSPACE EDUCATION II The second year AE-II cadets continued their study of Air Power with the Theory of Flight, Propulsion Systems, Military Aerospace, and Air Navigation. At the completion of this study the cadet has all the instruction necessary to pass the FAA ground school plus the fundamentals of Air Force Pilot training. Much more emphasis was placed on commanding the flight during marching and drill ceremonies. The basics of leadership and management within the Air Force was accomplished by the AE-II cadets serving in squadron command and staff positions. AEROSPACE EDUCA TION Ill The third year cadets study Space Technology, Human Relations, Exploring and Using Space, and The Defense ofthe United States. The AE-III cadets serve in the officer positions for command and staff training. The major emphasis is placed on leadership and career development in the fields of the Aerospace Industry and careers in the United States Air Force. The commander and his staff are responsible for organizing and directing the cadets within the squadron. B FLIGHT: ffront row, L to RJ T. Kelly, M. Hill, C. Dennis, D. McCall, fsecond row, L to RJ T.
