    As a 33 year old going in a month...I can't wait to be around a bunch of 18-21 year olds who know so much more than anyone else. But hey, it's a growing experience for everyone. I just hope they appreciate it as much as they should.

    Civil Air Patrol cadet here! How can you *not* like sounding off? It’s *so* fun to just Command voice your lungs out, *especially* now that I’m a Cadet NCO (C/SSgt at time of posting)
    There was one time I was going through some drill movements with a flight and my squadron commander came up to speak to us. After he was done I asked my flight if he was understood to which they sounded off. After which, I just went full almost DI level just “I SAID IS THAT UNDERSTOOD” to the point my Squadron Com. Was like “we didn’t join the USMC tonight!”.
    TL;DR Sounding off, 11/10 would recommend even as a 16 year old

      Yep, in the dorms. You will have a lot of free time. Sundays are when the MTI’s aren’t there. You will literally spend the entire day folding clothes, cutting strings, maybe write a few letters, hang out with your wingmen, study…. Those days were long trust me. But ofcourse, when you are in flights where you have to march to go to certain places, you will not be free to just walk off to the bathroom then. It’s all about situational awareness to know when and when not to use the bathroom.
