This Year's CIA Trip!

Cadets every year look forward to the Cadets in Action (CIA) trip. With such successful trips such as Washington and Chicago in recent years it's no wonder why they are so anxious to go. Our corps this year is heading for the great state of Ohio! To be more exact, Dayton, Ohio. Here we will visit the legendary Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, where we will take a tour through their facilities and as cadets you will be given a look into how our Air Force works. We will also visit the National Air Force Museum, where we will take a tour through this facility and see our nation's air power history. With many other events planned, to which you'll have to find out about, this year's CIA trip looks to be one of the best in years!

A Day of Rememberance

The 9/11 Ceremony was a success for our unit thanks to all of the cadets that planned and participated in it. Firefighters, police officers, EMS Responders, and other public officials came to the ceremony to remember that fateful day in 2001. Thanks to Ms. Pat Monteith, for letting the Corps use the Freshman Acadmey, the cadets of SC-932 held the ceremony at the James F. Byrnes Freshman Acadmey. Cadet Col Ernie Roy led the ceremony, giving a great speech that reflected on the events of that day. Cadet Col Erin Pennell led the squadron by giving the commands to show the proper respect throughout the ceremony. The Byrnes High School Orchestra played an arrangement of songs to set the mood, while the cadets led by Cadet Command Cheif Kirstin McCraw laid a wreath at the bottom of the flag pole. Cadet Major Ashton Peterson and Cadet First Lieutenant Bryson Lee played Taps as the colorguard led by Cadet Major Alex Wrennall performed a Half Mast Ceremony.

Washington D.C. Trip is a Great Success

Sunday night, 50 cadets and chaperones returned home from an excellent trip to our nation's capital, as well as a couple of other fun places.

They left Byrnes on Wednesday for a 10 hour bus ride to arrive at the hotel later that night.

The next day, the cadets enjoyed tours of the Naval Academy as well as the Maryland State capital. That night they took in the sites and great food of Baltimore Harbor.

The following morning, they walked around at Arlington cemetery, after a quick stop at the Air Force Memorial, and were lucky enough to catch the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknown soldier.

After that, the cadets split into separate groups. One group went to tour the museums along Lafayette Park and the other group went on the legendary "Death March" around D.C. to see the monuments and memorials.

And finally, on Saturday, the trip ended with a fun day of rides and amusement at Kings Dominion in Virginia. Then they woke up early Sunday morning to have a long, tiring, yet fun bus ride home.

When they returned home Sunday everyone was excited and tired from all the fun on this trip. Washington D.C. was a great place full of history, fun, and now, memories for SC-932.

Military Ball 2011

This year's military ball was a success and Byrnes SC-932 would like to recognize the people responsible for making the event possible. All the instructors were present including MSgt Outram and Col. Keen. Col. Keen was presented with one of our unit's guide ons by SMSgt Sparkman. Cadets of all ages worked together to for the military ball committee. They arrived at the USC Upstate Readiness Center hours early to prepare and set up for a great night of music and dancing.

Cadets enjoyed themselves with the luxuries of two chocolate fountains, appetizers, and just being with their friends. There were also a few line dances, the crowning of the king and queen, the grogg bowl, as well as special guest appearances. The night was a huge success and all cadets are looking forward to planning for next year's ball.
