Night Vision Class

Yesterday, the cadets got to participate in a night vision class. They learned what the goggles are used for what makes them "light up the night". The cadets also got an opportunity to use real U.S. Army issued night vision goggles. Above are the pictures of the night vision class.

Obstacle Course

Today the cadets competed for the best time around the obstacle course, as well ran through a few LRC's (Leadership Reaction Course). The obstacle course,  or O-course as it is called, is a 1.5 mile course through the south post at Devens that participates must run through and complete each obstacle. LRC's are stations in which participants are tasked with a problem, and must use teamwork and critical thinking to complete. Alpha flight had the fastest time around the O-course.

Team Sports

One of the best and easiest methods of demonstrating and practicing leadership is to play a sport. Yesterday, the cadets played ultimate frisbee.
