NCBC Battalion, U.S. Naval Sea Cadets of Rhode Island

"My daughter has been in for a little over a year. She is undecided on joining the service when she is older but always that possibility. She wants to work in oncology at the VA. She really enjoys her time in the Cadets. She has came home using one of the skills she learned in the sea pearch program. As a parent I feel this is a great way to give back and they have alot to gain. You only gain as much as the effort you put in as anything else you do in life. Several community service events, outings and the kids get a whole variety of opportunities in which they can learn alot of life skills. Definitely worth a try. The staff in my daughters unit are great."
