I was on youtube yesterday looking up encampments and NCSAS. When i came accrose the combat orientation training for CADETS. So i would like to know what the qulfications you must have to get accepted into this. I would also like people that attend this to tell me what they thought of it or any tips they could give me.

I'm actually not sure what "combat orientation training" even is, however, I would not describe PJOC as "combat orientation training".

I have a feeling he is referencing the Combat Controller Orientation Course, which is not yet an NCSA. If you do a search for Combat Controller Orientation Course here on CAPTalk, you'll find one or two threads about it already.

There is only one cadet in this thread.

The one with the poor grammar and spelling who publicly called his CC a liar before his tenth posting.

All the information you want is in the post that I linked to, which you said didn't exist. Please, just go their and read instead of demanding that everyone give you the information here with no work on your part.

Sorry. I am on constant grammar patrol and I swear to cow, if I see another cadet whose grammar skills are so lacking that I can't understand what they are saying, I will throw a fit.

And if I see someone use "would/should/could of" instead of "would/should/could have" or "would've/could've/should've" I will personally find their elementary school English and composition teacher and give them an atomic wedgie and hang them by said wedgie off a coathook behind their classroom door.

Unofficial is no excuse either for rudeness or disrespect. I'm seeing way too many cadets these days who lack even the most basic semblance of manners...manners which, by the way, I happily display to my fellow members even if they are subordinate.

Part of being a cadet is learning lessons for life and one important lesson is to respect your elders your colleagues at all levels, and to approach life with enough humility that every day you learn something new until the day you die.

This is way beyond poor spelling and grammar. You're ignorant and pleased as punch to be so.

No, you actually can't.

Not by the terms of use of this site, and not by the practical reality that you are not anonymous and what you say can have ramifications within CAP.

A valuable life lesson is likely on the way to you.

I'm a cadet, and your attitude is coming off nasty. Calm down, write regularly (none of the texting crap), and speak like you are talking to an officer. You should be an example for your unit. If I chose to google it, I'd think "Wow, their cadets must have absolutely no discipline. Or, they have a cadet who must have little respect for his CoC and...". You should not disrespect people like that.
