BCTS is a school that centers around teaching cadets the basics of cadet life. During the weeks leading up to this weekend, you have already learned a lot of the basic material presented in the first chapter of the leadership manual. You can expect the weekend to include some of everything - aerospace, emergency services, road marching, night operations, fitness training, communications, leadership, teamwork reaction courses, and a huge variety of other subjects!

The teamwork and leadership reaction courses teach cadets how to work together with friends they have only known for a very short time. They always involve quick thinking, reacting to change and a willingness to trust your team members to make good decisions.

Drill and ceremonies is also a major part of the training. To fall into a proper formation, cadets must learn how to space themselves correctly and provide enough room for turning and marching.

These cadets are practicing dress and drill maneuvers that are performed whenever a flight is formed.

No matter whether you are brand-new or an experienced cadet, you are guaranteed to learn new skills at the basic cadet training weekend while having a great time!
