U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps
USNSCC Pasadena Division & TS Conifer assist the City of Pasadena Veteran's Day Event to help remember and honor the service and sacrifice of our military Veterans. This year is especially poignant because our own 2D Battalion 23D Marine Corps Regiment, adopted by the City of Pasadena on November 25, 2013, has been deployed for a year-long term of duty. We will pay tribute to these local heroes with a special Yellow Ribbon Ceremony, with music by the Pasadena Scottish Pipes and Drums.

AIM will test and inspire you. It will push you to your limits. You’ll rise early. You’ll study. You’ll compete. For six non-stop days, you’ll test your mind, body and spirit in every way.
Intense and rewarding, AIM will help you to discover whether the Academy experience is truly what you want from college, and whether you have what it takes to succeed.
