I would like to get spun back up on my ES quals.  Mission Observer to be specific.  Getting rated in Safety is also a goal and probably the first one I'll accomplish this year as it is my "job" in CAP now.  Suppose I should also fill in the missing boxes for Level II as well.

I'm hoping to attend NSC (work schedule permitting) and finally finish requirements for the Wilson.

Having just rejoined after a (gulp!) 28-year hiatus, I've got a lot to do!

1) Get back in the "general CAP groove"
2) Get my head around Logistics, which seems to be one place where my squadron has told me I can be of immediate help
3) Start back in on GT
4) Get on the track for Scanner/Observer
5) Maybe find a way to give back to the CP by trying to go to this year's Encampment as a TAC or something...

Take advantage of the interest in ES that the cadets are showing all on their own and start with UDF and Mission Base Staff. Senior Members can get their own coffee.

Help with some fun AE projects to get cadets minds going.

I hope to staff at PCR RSC, and attend NSC this year so I can get Level V before Lt. Col.

In no particular order:

1. Get my [consarn] Earhart award (and Eaker, time permitting).

2. Continue the improvement of my unit, namely build up the C/NCO corps and recruit some new cadets.

3. Maybe staff Summer Encampment.

Living and working out here in Kwajalein, it's rather expensive to fly back to the mainland. So, I have to carefully select which activities to attend back in the States.

Applying for staff at 2011 Pacific Region Staff College - if I don't get picked up for staff, it's just vacation time off the rock.

Applying for 2011 NSC. That should complete all my requirements for Level V.

1. Get my squadron's CP back on track. It's alright, but has faltered this past year a little and needs some hand holding for a few months.

2. After the CP is back on a steady footing, grow the CP by recruiting at local middle and junior high schools.

3. Get several cadets GTM3 trained or higher.

4. Complete my level 3 so I can promote to Major as soon as I'm TIG eligible next May. Just have to do the two conferences.
If you are confident in you abilities and experience, whether someone else is impressed is irrelevant. - Eclipse

Earn my Spaatz.

Recruit more members.  Work on retention.  Find out from former members why they left, and try to change those reasons (if not for personal reasons).

Get a larger squadron-wide interest in ES and other activities.

Work towards building up a better staff corps in my squadron, while encouraging more cadets to stick around and become officers.

Hopefully start working on my MS and MO qualifications.

In my squadron there aren't any awards ceremonies on Commander's Call night for new senior members becoming 2nd Lts or receiving their Membership and Yeager award ribbons. While there are promotions awarded to cadets on these nights. Perhaps in some other composite squadrons this is the same too? Maybe the senior members then dont feel they are being recognized as they progress through the 5 levels and sometimes lose interest? Are there composite squadrons that recognize advancements for both cadets and senior members?
