How We Do It
|
The United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps (Sea Cadets) is a maritime based youth program sponsored by the U.S. Navy and supported by the U.S. Coast Guard. Cadets train on naval bases and other military installations in a variety of military disciplines, always choosing adventure, seeking challenges, and stepping outside of their comfort zones to prove to the world that
Greatness Has No Age. 
|
We teach today’s youth about leadership, community service, military careers, citizenship, and teamwork. We mentor and prepare our Cadets for whatever their future may be. We are a team that strives for excellence!
|
We meet on the 3rd weekend of each month from 0730 to 1400 on base at the Walter Reed Medical Center in Bethesda. Updated drill schedules can always be found here.
