-Aerospace Reminder-

Remember to be reading pages 10-13 of the Model Rocketry book for the Redstone Exam coming up.
Also, attendance matters for AE meetings. There is a slim chance of any make-up rocket building, so make sure you attend every meeting to achieve the Rocketry Badge.

 

Announcements: 

• ALL CADETS, whether in ABUs or OCPs, must check their patches to make sure they are in accordance with regulations. All corrections must be made within the next 30 days.
