Developing and promoting youth who wish to serve as Military or Public Service Officers is the most important
part of the NCCC.
The overwhelming amount of new Cadets applying for Scholarships has caused a change in our
requirements for a letter of Recommendation.
Starting 00:01 Zulu 1/Jan/08, All persons applying for a letter of recommendation from the CENTER will
have to have been in a Scouting program with continuous enrollment since age 14 and achieved at least the third
from the top award in that program at the time of application. This requirement is currently waiverable.
In addition the Cadet applicant must have participated in at least One International Scouting event hosted in a foreign
Country. Canada and Mexico,the Bahamas, Jamaica and other Countries in close proximity are approved. This
requirement can be waived under extenuating circumstances.
ATTENTION:
Until such time as Lieutenant General Anthony Pineda is reinstated
as National Commander of the Civil Air Patrol: No further assistance will be given to Cadets
applying from the Civil Air Patrol and activities and awards earned in the Civil Air Patrol will not count toward their
overall Score unless credit had been given for that award by the Scouting Organization that the Cadet jointly Belongs to.
Membership in the Civil Air Patrol will no longer carry special Privileges as before.
A Cadet or Cadet Applicant will no longer be able to substitute membership in the Civil Air Patrol For membership in
Scouting.
The Civil Air Patrol has been Suspended from our list of Authorized Organizations.
Scouts will find that the Air Scouting branch of the BSA is an outstanding place to learn about aviation and that joining
an Air Force or Navy ROTC unit is a far better application of time.
The NCCC Never askes for Money, funds, or donations of any kind. ANYONE asking for Donations (Even a token
ammount, material or a discount) of ANY KIND is a Fraud and must be reported to the CENTER ASAP.
The NCCC GIVES ASSISTANCE and NEVER asks for ASSISTANCE of ANY KIND.
