NERPA505 Update

Greetings 505! The communications class at the Erie Squadron was well done and worth the effort for the 6 who attended from 505. Everyone who intends to function on a ground team should seek a Radio Operator Authorization, whether or not they intend to pursue a Communications Badge.

Re. C/2 Lt. Matheny, Flight Commander, there will be a cadet led discussion of military customs and courtesies that was postponed from last week.

(1) Tuesday night is Emergency Services emphasis. The uniform of the day is BDUs, sleeves rolled up, unless otherwise instructed by Capt. Hagberg.
(2) All ground team members should bring their 24 and 72 hour packs (if they have them) for inspection. We will make a list of what is needed and attempt to help those who need items to secure them as cheaply as possible. March 15-19 is Flood Safety and Weather Awareness Safety Week, so listen to your NOAA weather station for useful information. Tornado season is already in, and Pennsylvania experiences several tornadoes per year.
(3) Cadets and senior members who are interested in attending a Navigation Weekend sponsored by the Jimmy Stewart Squadron, Indiana, PA, can read or download their announcement by clicking here.
(4) Senior members who desire to attend upcoming professional development classed can view or download announcements by clicking here. (5) Don't forget to check your renewal date and try to renew before your membership lapses! You are an important part of 505!

Invite a friend to the meeting! Be proud of who you are and what you do in CAP!

Semper Vigilans! See you Tuesday!
