Sea Cadets Learn CPR and First Aid
This past month the Dunlap Division had special guests come in to teach the cadets CPR and First Aid. Every cadet watched a first aid training video and administered CPR on an adult and infant training dummy. By the end of the day the unit was CPR and First Aid qualified! Also, this past month the Dunlap Division was sponsored to send two seniors to a Rotary Leadership Camp. The two cadets chosen were CPO Samantha Graham and SN Olivia Bozeman. These cadets were taught the importance of being a team, how to overcome obstacles, and decision making strategies. Naval Sea Cadets is designed for young men and women ages ten to high school graduation who are interested in expanding their knowledge on our military. The sea cadets instill patriotism and leadership skills. Dunlap division meets one weekend a month at the U.S. Coast Guard Aviation Center in Mobile, the cadets are under no obligation to join the military; however, if they do decide to enlist the are usually eligible to enlist at a higher paygrade. The program does offer ROTC scholarships.
