Today, the Cadre had another great day of leadership training at Pre-O. We started the morning with another great PT session, and got ready for todays meetings. LCDR Pinero gave a rousing presentation on How to Inspire as Leaders, and the Cadre contributed with some great questions and discussion points. They learned more important knowledge at a second medical briefing, and then split for lunch. First Battalion met to discuss squad leader development, where LT Jones shared some sea stories and helped to inspire the Cadre as leaders. Afterwards, the Battalions came together for a meeting on Retention.
The companies split up to collect gear for the incoming Cadet Candidates, and start to set up their companies for their arrival. The Cadre moved outside to practice marching and drill. First Battalion sent the Company Staff to different companies to work with their Cadre. Before going to bed, the Companies met to discuss what to improve for tomorrow, and the Battalion Staff came through to complete evaluations. The Cadre are ready for another great day tomorrow, where we’ll be going to Joint Base Cape Cod to do a team building ropes course!
