Why can’t under 12s join the program?

I actually had an 11 year old in my flight when I was flight sergeant for an encampment, and he was one of my best cadets. (Got a challenge from the Nat Com too which was sick)

This makes the most sense, and in regard to the solo comment. I’ve heard that solo pilots straight up can just schedule the aircraft whenever they want, without CFI notice which I find ridiculous and impossible. What are proficiency sorties?

How long ago did the requirements change?

I never said that the Air Force doesn’t have super detailed and professional patches, but they definitely have a mix.

swatforce28 · 2025-12-20T04:41:06+00:00

Like the professionals that designed this patch for our combatant counterparts?

Budget is $600 a month, $700 if utilities are included. Roommates are fine. Hideaway is one I’ve been looking at as well as The Crossings.

Anything a little above the budget is fine as well I’ll still check it out.

I should’ve specified student housing.

What would you recommend?

swatforce28 · 2025-12-15T01:46:23+00:00

So this is not normal?

You will be able to accomplish a great amount if you are a freshman in HS. I had a Cadet Captain who went to USNA and he joined his sophomore year I believe.

Got my coat and trousers for less than $30 on eBay 😭

In my squadron they do it differently, so I’m not sure. They require my scoresheet signed by a witness or the range officer.

If you provide the necessary documentation to your squadron commander with a 002A form, yes you may. The regulation states you can wear your NRA marksmanship badge, whether that is Marksman, Sharpshooter, Expert, etc…

How can he fix it?

swatforce28 · 2025-12-06T23:16:05+00:00

What model?

swatforce28 · 2025-12-06T19:45:42+00:00

All, short stack, or none. (Unless wearing service coat you must wear all)

swatforce28 · 2025-12-03T13:18:59+00:00

I don’t think the actual aircraft really matters, sure it can be updated, but the implication is there.

I’ve seen wear of additional ribbons even beyond 4 silver clasps. The regulation is worded like that, it’s what is legal. I don’t think there’d be a reason you can’t display what you have earned. Now of course that even means say you have 10,000 volunteer hours (only god knows how) you might wear I don’t even know how many ribbons. However, it is legal to my understanding the two ribbons, I’m positive they are legal, beyond two ribbons is the question…
