The cadets are now settling in at the 2024 Georgia Wing Summer Encampment and the staff have been impressed with the improvement the students have made. Many of the students were hesitant while checking into encampment but are now enjoying the process with wide smiles on their faces.

Today, we asked cadets and staff how they were settling in, and what they thought of their experience so far.

“It's been challenging being away from family and friends, but all in all pretty good,” said Cadet Airman Owen Ott from Forsyth County Cadet Squadron.

Many other cadets and staff had positive comments about this encampment and the students such as one of the Flight Sergeants.

“With each hour, they are improving,” said November’s Flight Sergeant Cadet Senior Master Sgt. Pye from Cobb County Composite Squadron. “Some cadets are adapting to the new environment more than others, but they are helping each other.”

All in all the cadets are starting to settle in smoothly and enjoying the encampment. They are going to have to strive to be their best during the Ultimate Cadet Challenge tomorrow: yelling chants, doing drill with perfection, and striving to be the best flight.
