What Are My Three Goals For Wyoming Wing Encampment

Flight Sergeant

I have been in the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) for over five years, and I have attended four CAP encampments, three serving on staff. I think my prior experience serving on staff would be an asset to the Wyoming Wing Encampment (WYWE).
My three goals for the Wyoming Wing Encampment (WYWE) are:
1. Help the student with drill.
I would help cadets with drill by using the Six- step method from CAP Pamphlet 60-33, CAP Drill and Ceremonies, paragraph 1.6.2, on page 11.
The Six- step method is:
1. State the name of the movement to be executed, and describe its purpose. State the preparatory command and the command of execution, or note if it is a combined command. Demonstrate what the command sounds like.
2. Demonstrate the movement to the formation, using the proper cadence and commands.
3. Explain and demonstrate the movement in detail.
4. Ask questions on the movement, then demonstrate the movement again as in paragraph 1 if further clarification is needed.
5. Have the formation perform the movement and make on-the-spot corrections.
6. Critique the performance of the movement and review important areas before moving on to the next exercise.
By using the Six- step method, it is the best way to teach cadets and answer any questions.

2. (Guide or Mentor) and answer student’s questions.

I will be a very approachable flight Sgt so if a student is having trouble with a dill movement he/she can ask me for help. I will also be there if they are stressed or feeling home sick. I will help them to the best of my ability. I would answer the question that students have to the best of my ability. If I can’t answer the question I will ask my flight commander. If he/she gives me the answer I will go to the student that asked the question and tell him/her what the flight commander
