April 2011-Week I Historical Notes

Week I of April 2011 was the start of a very busy month for the Corpus Christi Composite Squadron as well as the Coastal Bend Cadet Squadron.  It began on a down note on 4 April 2011 O-Flights were CANCELED for a second time due to TO HIGH WIND. Cadets Vela and Delapaz were ordered to stand down and asked to pick new partners for another attempt at Monday/Wednesday O-Flights later in the month.  Instead, Lt Hoelscher and Major Carrales conducted a VAN TRANSFER for a trip to Corpus Christi International Airport the day following.

5 April 2011 was an eventual day hosting a PROMOTION and AWARDS CEREMONY and seeing final confirmation for the COLOR GUARD for HOOKS GAME on 17 April 2011.  The Coastal Bend Cadet Squadron traveled to attend the CORPUS CHRISTI COMP SQUADRON MEETING to PRACTICE for BUC DAYSThe meeting went well.

Thursday, 7 April 2011: Saw the final selection of the COLOR GUARD PRACTICE for BUC DAYS.  Cadets collected wood for use in future tarp and tent posts (complete with Safety Lecture).

The week ended with SM Ryder of the Corpus Christi Comp Squadron and Major Carrales of the Coastal Bend Cadet Squadron attempting to drum up cadets for the NAS Corpus Christi Airshow.  Only cadet Spencer could attend.  The Corpus Christi Comp Squadron took the lead on the Air Show.

Flight of the Week for the Coastal Bend Cadet Squadron was Bravo Flight, under the command of C/SSgt S. Jimenez.
