There are also many winter and summer trainings that are available to attend which are quite fun as well as very educational. There are many different trainings which are available such as Security Force Training, SEABEE Training, Small Boats Training, as well as an annual "League Orientation" that is usually held in August at FT Lewis in Tacoma WA which all new recruits must complete before being able to advance in rank or attend other trainings. If you are interested in the US Navy League Cadet Program or about Training Ship Spokane - please send an email to TrainingShipSpokane@Yahoo.com or TestYourLimits@comcast.net with your questions or comments. THE NAVY LEAGUE CADET CORPS (USNLCC) is for young Americans between the ages of 10 to 13 years of age. The NLCC is basically the same as the NSCC except that NLCC Cadets wear different uniforms and are restricted from flying aboard US Navy aircraft, participating in long shipboard cruises and other hazardous activities. However, general training at NOSC SPOKANE will almost always be the same as for NSCC Cadets. IF YOU HAVE A YOUNG ADULT BETWEEN THE AGES OF 13 and 17, the US NAVAL SEA CADETS is the continuation program of the League Cadets and is more intensive and more self motivated than the syllabus type trainings the League Cadets receive. If you would like more information about the advanced program, you can send an email to FortSpokaneSeaCadets@yahoo.com or you can check out the national website at www.seacadets.org or the local Spokane Washington Sea Cadets at www.fortspokanebattalion.org Sea Cadet organizations exist in most of the maritime nations of the world. Recognizing the value of these organizations in educating youth in maritime matters, the Department of the Navy requested the Navy League of the United States to establish a similar program for American youth. The Navy League agreed to do so and formally established the Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) and Navy League Cadet Corps (NLCC) in 1958. The basic objectives of both programs are: (1) to help young Americans become more patriotic and responsible citizens, and (2) to help young Americans understand the role of the maritime services in national defense and in maintaining the economic viability of our nation. On September 10, 1962, the NSCC was federally incorporated by Congress under Public Law 87-655 as a non-profit civilian education organization, a legal entity separate from the Navy League. This law was later amended to permit enrollment of young women in the Corps. The objectives and purposes of the NSCC as in this law (as amended) are: "...Through organization and cooperation with the Department of the Navy, to encourage and aid American youth to develop, train them in seagoing skills, and to teach them patriotism, courage, self-reliance and kindred virtues." Today, the NSCC has formed partnerships with organizations such as the Foundation for Teaching Economics and the Flying Midshipman Association to offer cadets broader opportunities in areas of leadership and aviation. The NSCC also took an active part in the creation of the International Sea Cadet Association (ISCA). The ISCA is an association of Sea Cadet Corps' from around the world, whose main objective is to facilitate exchanges of cadets between member countries. The US Navy and US Coast Guard officially support the NSCC / NLCC for purposes of training. The Navy League of the United States (NLUS) is the official sponsor of the NSCC / NLCC. Local Navy League Councils sponsor individual units or where there are no Navy League Councils, other Patriotic Organizations usually provide sponsorship.
