Subject: Cary High Navy JROTC Students Excel at Leadership Camp

 

Six members of the Cary High School Navy Junior ROTC participated in the Navy Area Six Leadership Academy held at Coastal Carolina University 19-24 July. The camp featured training for the cadets in advanced leadership techniques, organizational leadership, ethics, team building skills, drill and ceremonies, orienteering and physical fitness. The cadets were involved in training over 15-hour days, had three comprehensive tests, 11-quizes, one practical test, a physical fitness test and competed in a platoon drill competition.

 

The Area Leadership Academy invites the top 150 cadets from the 68 Navy JROTC units in North Carolina and South Carolina. This year cadet Mitch Earley from Cary High School finished first in his class with a 98.8 % average. Cadet Earley received the highest award a cadet in Navy JROTC cadet can earn the Meritorious Achievement Ribbon. Cadets John Blackwell and Josh Moore from Cary also successfully completed the Leadership Academy with Cadet Blackwell finishing an outstanding sixth in the class and receiving the Cadet Achievement Ribbon. 

 

Cary also had three of the total of the seven cadet aides for this year’s Academy. The cadet aides are selected based on their high finish from the previous year. Cary cadets Jessica Waters, Austin Hurlock and Rebecca Law served in roles as assistants to the platoon chiefs in the training of the student cadets. Jessica, Austin and Rebecca have been selected this year to serve as the Commanding Officer, Executive Officer and Operations Officer for the Cary unit for this school year. For their outstanding performances as cadet aides each of them received a Cadet Achievement Ribbon. 

We are very proud of these cadets and wish with them well in their leadership roles this year with the Cary High Navy JROTC.
