"Sea Cadets has absolutely shaped me into the person I am today. I have learned so much about myself and how to become a better leader. With my fellow shipmates, I’ve learned what it truly means to be a mentor, a leader, and a friend. Sea Cadets has opened my eyes to the future and has become a major inspiration for my decision to enlist in the Navy and pursue medicine throughout my career in the military."

"I can say without a doubt that Sea Cadets has changed me as an individual. Through this program, I learned professional skills, teamwork, communicating effectively, discipline, attention to detail, and what dedication means. I have met many great people along the way, seen some awesome things, and worked at the speed of light. I hope to be an officer qualified in submarines in the Navy someday."
