Do cadets have to complete all 5 of the rocketry modules or just the first 3 to wear the rocketry badge?

Rather than spoon feed you the answer, Staff Sergeant, I'll answer with a question.

What does the regulation say?

You only need to pass the first 3 modules and tests, then you are authorized to wear the badge. The 4th and 5th modules are just advanced courses.

Cadet Rosinski-

You wasted a good training exercise.

When anyone posts a question in here, it is best to teach them  how / where to get the answer instead of just answer the question. As in Give a person food, (s)he will be able to eat once, teach a person to fish, (s)he will have food to the end of his life.

In other words, do like Double did...

Matt,

Your first step beyond looking in the regs could probably have been to come ask your AE Officer, which is me.

But I still applaud your enthusiasm to get talking here on CAPTalk, and get the perspectives of those from other Wings.

Duh!

See, here's the problem.  You have a cadet that is unfamiliar with the fact that CAPTalk is filled with cadets and seniors who live for the opportunity to prove that they know everything and try to make others feel stupid for not knowing as much as they do.  Like I said before, I applaud him for coming here and asking questions.  He just needs to understand that you come here after you can't find your answer in the regs or in your own unit.  Otherwise, you chance swimming with piranhas.

Don't make the mistake in thinking that just because I chided one of my own cadets that I won't defend him into the ground from those outside our unit.

I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and just assume you meant "d'oh!" as opposed to "duh".

Panzerbjorn,

Don't forget out .  AE's Stem Kit Give-away! 

Maybe your enthusiast cadet can get others excited to complete the program as well.

Just wanted give a shout out to you, Samuel, as a member of the Boise Composite Squadron.  That was my first squadron almost ten years ago!

... which, unfortunately, still doesn't stop people from answering in the way you described previously.
