As I sat there in the undergrowth hoping that no staff member would see me goofing off, I watched my teammates. Some guys were stringing up ponchos, but my parents couldnt afford to get me everything on the packing list so that wasnt an option for me. One of the guys was digging a deep hole near a tree. He said he was building some kind of defensive position. I dont know what he was thinking, but it did give me an idea.
Yeah, baby! Spit shine those blue suede shoes and grab that skin-tight sparkly jumpsuit out of the back of the closet, because CadetStuff is hittin' the Strip!
CadetStuff.org and The Spaatz Association have teamed up to bring you, cadets attending the 2003 Civil Air Patrol National Boards, something to do besides gaze longingly at rows of slot machines and buffets that could choke the heftiest of S'members.
If you're going to be there this might be your opportunity to snag some swag. Look for the guys with the SpaceDog on their chests and say, "Hey there CadetStuff guy! How can I get some swag?" And they'll say, "I'm glad you asked!" and give you a bigga-bigga-bigga hunka love. That's right!
See ya soon!
For those of you who go on to be commissioned out of USAFA, the Academy will someday be your Alma Mater, literally the mother of your grown-up soul, the full-grown version of the character you brought to the Academy, developed there as a cadet, and will consult daily throughout your career as an officer. So what the Academy really means by "Bring Me Men" is "Give me good officer material stand-up, do-right young people to work with. Creeps, bullies, and moral cowards need not apply, I can't use them..."
In our three-week trip to Sweden there were nine trips by air and eleven by bus. We visited eight historical attractions, eight major Swedish companies, and another eight sightseeing excursions of various kinds. We stayed at seven RSAF bases, two private homes and were guests at fourteen formal banquets and receptions. Moreover, we had a chance to see another, very special, country and live a hectic daily schedule with guys from four other countries and from across the US.
