US NAVAL SEA CADET CORPS, PORTSMOUTH NAVAL SHIPYARD Resources
Welcome to our unit's Resources section.
Here, you can find information on just about every topic that is covered in drills, clinics, etc. We have tried to break them up into general topics. Check in often for updates!
Most forms, training info, promotion requiremets, etc. can be found at the Main Sea Cadets Page - http://resources.seacadets.org. All cadets are encouraged to become very familiar with the content of this site.
Here are some links for additional free "viewers". If you do not have the programs, you may need these viewers in order to download and view material from not only the seacadets.org site, but also material on our site:
If you think you are going to miss a drill you must notify your Squad
leader and the mustering Petty Officer (Admin Cadet. When you call
them you must at this time have a couple alternate dates to make up
your missed drill. If you do not have re-scheduled dates at this
time your absence will be marked as an Unexcused Absence. If you
give the rescheduled dates you will me marked as Authorized Absence
and changed to Present with you make up the drill. If you do not make
it up by the first week of the following month your Authorized
Absence will be changed to Unexcused Absence.
You may take TWT time and apply it towards your drill schedule but it
will be erased from your accumulated TWT time so use this wisely.
Our reporting cycle is at the end of the first week of each month.
Example. Februarys reporting is mailed in the end of the first week
in March.
All other absences will be reviewed on a case to case basic.
Supply
New Cadets:
After all paper work has been submitted and moneys
turned in a new Cadet will be issued a standard set
of uniforms from supply. After approval from the
Admin officer Cadets Sargent, with the aid of an officer,
will issue the standard set of uniforms from supply.
Cadets on board:
All uniform requests must be made in writing and
given to Cadet Sargent. A request from supply order
form will be available in the office.
Replacement issues for items lost must be paid for
before we can issue a replacement item.
Replacement for damaged or out grown items
must be returned to supply before we can issue a
replacement item.
Requests for rank insignia needs approval by the
CO, XO, or training officer. You must fill out a
separate form for rank insignia and have it signed
by either the CO, XO, or training officer before giving
the form to Cadet Sargent.
Any standard issue that we have in supply can be issued
by Cadet Sargent with the aid of an officer
Cadet Sargent will send me mail for any items not
in stock.
I will place an order for CUU name tapes and dress
uniform name tags once a week. It typically takes
2 - 3 weeks for them to come in. Name tapes and
tags will be picked up from Pease on the Saturday
drill and will be issued that day.
I will place an order for work blue name tapes and
other supplies at the end of each month. Orders
are submitted monthly to save cost on shipping.
It typically takes 4-8 weeks for items to come in except
for name tapes which typically take a week.
Boots are not standard issue. The Commanding Officer is able to
get boots for $20. If you would like the Commanding Officer to
order you some boots, you should fill out a separate
request form and give both the forms and $20 to the Admin Officer
Be advised that seabag requirements are quite strict for boot camp. If an item is on the list and you do not have it, you may not be allowed to process through. There have been instances where cadets have not been allowed onto base because they lacked items on this list. If it is on the list, be certain that you have it and the exact number of the item. In addition, if it is not on the list: do not bring it. There are also strict requirements concerning medications of any kind: do not bring medications without proper authorization and documentation.
