Leave a reply

Earlier today, December 17, 2022  our U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (USNSCC) Arkansas Division participated in the Wreaths Across America that was held at San Francisco National Cemetery at the Presidio of San Francisco to Remember and Honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country’s fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud.  Several members of Branch 25 were also in attendance to support our cadets in this endeavour.

Below are some pictures from the event.

Below are a couple of videos from the day.

Finally, at the end of the day one of our members placed a wreath at our cenotaph at Greenlawn Memorial Park.

USNSCC – Arkansas Division Annual Inspection 2022

Leave a reply

Earlier today the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (USNSCC) – Arkansas Division held their 2022 Annual Inspection of the Pacific Central Region in Building 2 of the US Coast Guard on Yerba Buena Island.  As one of the sponsors of this cadet corps, President Michael Barbour was on hand for the event. As a part of the festivities, Comrade Barbour presented their Commanding Officer, LTJG Gabriel Mikulich, a cheque for the Legion’s annual donation to the group.

Comrade Barbour also handed out this year’s Royal Canadian Legion Cadet Medal of Excellence, which is awarded annually to the cadet having shown a high degree of participation and leadership in the area of citizenship and in meeting and enhancing the aims and objectives of the cadet organization. While the specific criteria for the award are developed by the cadet leadership, the broad view of the award is that the individual must be seen by peers and superiors to exemplify the model cadet and enhance his/her corps status by cooperation with peers and superiors, comradeship, promotion of goodwill and morale within the corps, supporting and assisting corps members, and enhancing the image of cadets in the local community. This year’s recipient of the Royal Canadian Legion Cadet Medal of Excellence was Seaman Olivia Kessor.
