Eligible Students. All Fike High School students, enrolled in a regular course of instruction and physically able to participate in AFJROTC activities may join AFJROTC. All AFJROTC students must be enrolled voluntarily and fully participate in the full program to include taking AFJROTC academic courses, participate in the cadet corps (pronounced “core”) and wellness program, and wear the prescribed uniforms. Only high school students in the grade of 9-12 may enroll in AFJROTC. Cadets, with Parents and/or Guardians, will sign an application and contract for enrollment or continued enrollment. 2. Transfers. Students transferred from Army, Navy, Marine Corps (pronounced “core”), Coast Guard, or other AFJROTC units are authorized full credit for training received. Transfer of rank held and equivalent ribbons earned in another service program or Civil Air Patrol (CAP) is determined by the Senior Aerospace Science Instructor (SASI). 3. Non-discrimination. All enrollment and disenrollment decisions will be free from discrimination. The principal and instructors will ensure appropriate fitness of cadets to successfully participate in the AFJROTC Curriculum. This prohibition does not include denying enrollment into AFJROTC, or removing a student from AFJROTC, when that student does not agree to, or fails to meet and/or maintain AFJROTC standards of uniform wear, grooming and/or personal conduct. 4. Probation. Cadets may be placed on a probation status at any time during the academic semester with proper cause. Probation is tied to the unit’s good order and discipline and based on student attendance and personal conduct. 5. Disenrollment. AFJROTC students may be removed AT ANY TIME during the academic semester with proper cause and used as a last resort. A student may be removed for: a. Failure to agree, adhere, and sign the “Cadet Agreement and Contract” within the first 5 days of each semester. b. Failure to meet and maintain acceptable standards (uniform wear, grooming, and/or personal conduct). c. Inaptitude or indifference to training (includes failure to wear Physical Training gear with appropriate athletic shoes) d. Disciplinary reasons and/or infractions and/or failure to maintain minimum conduct standards e. Undesirable character traits and/or unwilling to perform drill and/or Physical Training f. Failure to follow Wilson County, FHS, and AFJROTC policy, rules, guidelines, and/or procedures. g. Failure to fully participate in the program as required by AFJROTC, which includes community service and activities. 6. Disenrollment Process: AFJROTC students are advised concerning their choices and decisions. The intent is to support each cadet in making positive outcome decisions for themselves and their unit. Violations and/or failure to meet and maintain standards is cumulative and an overall grade of 50 (F) is assigned. The following process will be followed for cadet disenrollment: a. 1st Step: Instructors, Parent/Guardian, and Cadet Conference; documented as appropriate b. 2nd Step: Administration, School Counselor, Instructors, Parent/Guardian, and Cadet Conference and documented as appropriate c. 3rd Step: Cadet disenrollment from AFJROTC, return of uniform items, and placed per Administration’s decision 3 7. Other Considerations. a. Special needs (including physically challenged) students may participate in AFJROTC with the concurrence of the SASI and the principal. However, AFJROTC should not have a disproportionate number of any special groups of students as compared

The program is very demanding. The following chapters will explain what it's like to be a cadet in the Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps Program. Rewards: Most cadets who complete the program agree that it's often difficult, but very rewarding and a lot of fun. There's a special feeling about AFJROTC that doesn't fit a mold. Most cadets like it, but a few don't. Your attitude will determine your rewards. You will get out of it what you put into it. Hard Work: During your first year as a cadet, you should expect to be closely supervised, counseled, inspected, and instructed. Your opportunities in the program will be somewhat limited as you learn the important basic lessons. Your hard work during this first year in AFJROTC can set the stage for your future success in leadership positions. Every class will be crowded with activities to make the best use of available time.

Benson BSc, MSc, MB, ChB, FRAeS Visiting Consultant to the Royal Air Force Centre for Aviation Medicine Royal Air Force Henlow, Bedfordshire, SG 16 6DN, United Kingdom Formerly Senior Medical Officer (Research) at the Royal Air Force Institute and School of Aviation Medicine Farnborough, Hampshire, United Kingdom 29, Coxheath Road, Church Crookham Fleet Hants GU52 6QQ United Kingdom Introduction Spatial disorientation is characterised by the failure of the operator to sense correctly the position, motion or attitude of the vehicle, or of him/herself, within a fixed co-ordinate system provided by the surface of the earth and the gravitational vertical. Spatial disorientation (SD) in flight, where the operator is the pilot and the vehicle is an aircraft, has been a problem since the early days of powered flight, and is a topic that has been discussed on numerous occasions within the NATO community. Yet, despite an increased understanding of the multifactorial aetiology of SD and improvements in the display of information to the aviator to facilitate the perception of veridical spatial orientation (SO), accidents primarily attributable to SD continue to occur. Indeed, as technologies of manufacturing, quality control and aircraft maintenance improve, the proportion of accidents (syn. mishaps) due to SD has increased. This would appear to be due, at least in part, to the introduction of new technologies, such as night vision goggles (NVGs), that have allowed flight operations in environmental conditions which previously were not possible. In view of the apparent lack of progress in combating SD and the continuing accident rate with its loss of life, loss of aircraft and high financial cost, the Human Factors and Medicine Panel of the Research and Technology Agency considered it to be timely for the topic of SD to be revisited in the light of emerging and recently developed techniques and technologies which might have application not only to SD in flight but also in other military environments.

  • Cadet Handbook Sy 2020
    KS-931 - WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL AIR FORCE JUNIOR ROTC CADET HANDBOOK SY 2020 DEVELOPING CITIZENS OF CHARACTER 1 Forward Congratulations on your decision to enroll in the AFJROTC program. The Kansas 931st Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFJROTC) was established at Washington High School in the fall of 1993 by agreement between the Unified School District 500, Kansas City Kansas Public Schools, and Headquarters of the United States Air Force JROTC. The Senior Aerospace Science Instructor (SASI) is a retired U.S. Air Force officer and the Aerospace Science Instructors (ASI) are retired U.S. Air Force commissioned and noncommissioned officers. These instructors have extensive professional military education and training, as well as many years experience teaching and training others. The AFJROTC curriculum includes aerospace science, leadership instruction training, and a E2C/Wellness Program (Physical Training (PT)). Cadet officers and noncommissioned officers learn leadership and management skills by organizing and directing the KS-931st AFJROTC Wing. Our mission is simply developing citizens of character dedicated to serving the nation and community. (Enrollment in the corps in no way obligates the cadet for military service.) The Instructors and cadets of the KS-931st Wing at Washington High School prepared this cadet guide for your use. It is not a regulation although it refers to Air Force Instructions and gives guidance in areas not practically regulated. This guide may also be informative to principals, counselors, teachers, and parents. The standards in this guide support the leadership and personal development objectives of the AFJROTC program and if taken in the spirit in which it is intended will provide the foundation for a pleasant and profitable educational experience.
