IF YOU DON'T PUT YOUR NAME, FLIGHT OR DATE ON THIS IT IS A

ZERO! WE ARE AFJROTC: EXCELLENCE IN ALL YOU DO!

2ND PERIOD IS BRAVO FLIGHT, 3RD IS CHARLIE, 4TH IS DELTA,

5TH IS ECHO, 8TH IS GOLF. REMEMBER YOUR FLIGHT NAME YOU
WILL BE USING IT CONSTANTLY.

Make sure you answer all the questions. Often cadets don’t scroll
down and don’t complete. Life is tough and a job application not
filled will get tossed out. We are teaching life skills along with
Science of Flight. This is due 2 October (Friday).
