This is a very educational program for youth between the ages of 10 and 18.

The Sea Cadet program builds strong morals teaches leadership and teamwork.

Each cadet can train and learn many professions such as what it takes to be an airman, a photo journalist, to be in the medical and law enforcement fields, as well as training locally with the US Coast Guard in Oswego.

At this time the Sea Cadets program a division of the Navy supported also by the Coast Guard sponsored by the Navy League would like to salute our armed forces serving in the Mideast and around the world.
