hey i know alot of poeple that play military games grow a facination for the military so my question for you poeple at the age of (13-17) that are intrested in joining the military you should seriously think about the US naval Sea Cadet corps or USNSCC for short

so what are the Sea cadets

The Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) is for American youth ages 13-17 who have a desire to learn about the Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine. Sea Cadets are authorized by the Secretary of the Navy to wear Navy uniforms appropriately marked with the Sea Cadet Corps insignia. The objectives of the Sea Cadet program are to introduce youth to naval life, to develop in them a sense of pride, patriotism, courage, and self-reliance, and to maintain an environment free of drugs and gangs.

Here are a list of the diffrent advaced training schools you can go to after boot camp

TRAINING SCHOOLS
AIRMAN TRAINING (BASIC & ADVANCED)
AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL TRAINING
FAA GROUND SCHOOL
CULINARY ARTS TRAINING
MEDICAL TRAINING (GENERAL, FIELD, SURGICAL & DENTAL TECH)
FIREFIGHTING TRAINING
PHOTO JOURNALISM TRAINING
CEREMONIAL GUARD
SUBMARINE SEMINAR
MARKSMANSHIP TRAINING
CONSTRUCTION BATTALION (SEABEE) TRAINING (BASIC & ADVANCED)
MINE WAREFARE OPERATIONS TRAINING
MUSIC SCHOOL
SEAL TEAM TRAINING <---------------------------------------yea me this summmer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EXPLOSIVE ORDNANCE DISPOSAL TRAINING
AMPHIBIOUS TRAINING
PETTY OFFICER LEADERSHIP ACADEMY
MASTER-AT-ARMS TRAINING (MILITARY POLICE/LAW)
JUDGE ADVOCATED GENERAL (JAG) TRAINING
SAILING SCHOOL
SCUBA SCHOOL
SEAMANSHIP TRAINING
SHIPBOARD TRAINING

LIVE ABOARD NAVY & COAST GUARD SHIPS & SHORE STATIONS FOR TWO-WEEKS.

what are the benifits of this program?

Depending on the rate achieved in the Naval Sea Cadets, former cadets may be eligible to enlist in the armed forces at an advanced pay grade. Being a member honorably discharged from the Corps is looked upon favorably by selection boards for military academies and ROTC programs. Also those cadets who are accepted to a four-year university may be eligible for scholarships.

yea there are some requirements.

Be between the ages of 13 and 17.
Must be a US Citizen
Be in good health and pass a qualifying physical examination.
Be a full time student and maintain satisfactory grades (2.00 "C" grade point average).
Be free of felony convictions

and if you do enlist when your CO ask how did you learn about it plz tell the Cadet Jonathon Schwan for long beach division tols you about it ( i get a ribbon lol )

I'm doing Navy Junior ROTC next year in high school. I live about 30 minutes away from Annapolis, which is the biggest naval base in the U.S. I think.

the sea cadet corps is looking very favorable upon military academys and Recruit officer training courses. and i think that annapolis is only a naval academy but i could be wrong. some guy last year joined the US naval acadmeny that was in my Cadet unit.

I'm very intrested. I meet all the requirements above. But I have a question about Athsma...would that prevent us from joining the program? I'm physically and mentally fit otherwise.

Before all the cool military stuff, comes the stupid stuff. Before you join the military, do your best to learn most of the bullshit that will be shoved down your throat during boot camp...BEFORE you go to boot camp, and make sure that you can already do more physically than will be required of you. Even if you are a quick study, you'll be glad of every extra free minute you can get if you already know what's required. You don't ever want to be answering anybody with "I DUNNO!" If your recruiting guy isn't an asshole, he'll give you the same advice, and you'd better follow it if you don't want to be miserable.

Also, one thing definately never mentioned by recruiters is the fact that the change in food and water and the purposefully screwed-up sleep pattern will initially give many recruits the runs, which will be highly visible in their laundry. Don't be an asshole, and don't make fun of them.

And don't get god damned scented deodorant. Shit...

New Zealand has the same sort of thing. Called the Air Training Corps, Sea Cadet Corps and Cadet Corps. Organised along the same lines as the Scouting Movement (but is way better). Cadets also wear uniforms with Rank appropriate to the branch you have joined. Officers are either Cadets that have moved up thru the Ranks, or are full time NZ military personnel.
Activities involved are Drill, Weapons Safety, Bushcraft and basic Survival skills, the art of Camoflauge, shooting
and glider flying.
Was the most enjoyable 5 years of my life, and i recommend it to all 13-18 year olds.
Attained the Rank of Cpl
