You know you are a CAP cadet if...

[ES Ninja]

Getting back on topic...You know you are a CAP cadet when at the end of a summer your don't have a farmer's tan...you have BDU tan in a nice tight line around your arm 

And you know you've been to Blue Beret when not only do you have the highly fashionable BDU tan, but you have this lovely slanted tan line across your face from where the sun hit your beret all week and cast a shadow!

When you suffer from symptoms of withdrawl when you miss one meeting (from something that could be avoided: Car trouble, homework, Parents, etc.)

You know your a CAP cadet if your wall is made to hold your uniforms

[Nighthawk]

1. If you yell at the T.V. for improper uniforms in a show/movie.
2. If, when in civvies, you come to attention when an officer in uniform walks by.
3. When someone asks how you are you respond "Outstanding, Sir/Ma'am!"
4. You are upset when you can't shine your shoes.
5. Your non-CAP friends talk about you to others as "the air force dude".

Haha, my friends nicknamed me "Soldier." It's one of those things, ya know?

Anyways, I have another one:
You know you're a cadet when you got your recent promotion you realized you had to add 3 ribbons to your rack.

You know you're a CAP cadet when you refer to a raid on the kitchen as a 'Tasty Search.'

1. If you yell at the T.V. for improper uniforms in a show/movie.

It doesn't get any better. Never been a cadet, been military for years, and that still bugs me.

When you're the only one in your chemistry class who doesn't bat an eyelid after your teacher calls "ppt" papa papa tango. Meanwhile, your classmates are laughing/looking around confused.

[Nighthawk]

I got some more.
You are fixing your hair in a mirror when you realize you were looking at your dress shoes.
You iron a sharp crease in all of your clothes.
When answering a question or making a statement, you say Sir or Ma'am.
When talking with your friends, you use CAP terms fluently.

this made me laugh out loud and look like a fool in front of my family. because it's true. 

also, when you yell at the TV every time someone on TV calls an NCO "Sir".

[Perez]

1.Since your basic encampment, you've folded every T-shirt you have into 6"x6" squares.
2.When you saw that the Hock Shop's website was closed, you paused for a moment of silence
3.When you go to the gym to "PT", and nobody knows what you're talking about
4.You come home from a CAP activity exhausted, hungry, and with the load of work you were given you still wish you were back there.

No kidding. The last encampment I went to I did not want to leave.

[Майор Хаткевич]

My flash drive is still called "Capt" because it used to be used for CAP only.

A lot of seniors feel that way, too.  It is very easy to fall into a comfortable, mission-focused groove while the rest of the
world worries about things that seem a lot more important the rest of the year (bills, jobs, family...)

Encampments are funny like that. I have been to a couple of encampments and every time I don't want to leave. Even to go on vacation afterwards.

I think a big chunk of that is the people with similar goals/interests. 

[SABRE17]

two days after my basic encampment i had marching band camp (on a military base oddly enough), no one could understand why I woke up at 0500 spontaneously and decided to go for a run and PT.

[Flyer4Christ]

(1) Know more people by their first name than their last
(2) Find yourself screaming at the TV when someone on a movie calls an NCO "sir"
(3) Got your solo license before your driver's license (true story, happened to my CC)

Not to brag...but i had my private and most of my instrument before i had my drivers license
