Sea Cadets Formation

Are you ready to take on challenges that will empower you to be a leader of character today and prepare you to lead in the future? Do you want to step out of your comfort zone and have experiences of a lifetime? If this sounds like you, we’d love to welcome you to the USNSCC family in Rochester, NY.

First…

Let us know you are interested by going to the Sea Cadets website, find Rochester CA-124 Division on the unit locator, and click the Request Info button.

Then…

You’ll be contacted by the Commanding Officer or Recruiting Officer to arrange a visit with your parents or guardians to see the unit in action and ask all your questions!

If you like what you see and hear…

Complete the online application, including a required physical and other supporting documentation.

And lastly…

Select one of our INDOC days to receive your gear, meet your shipmates, and participate in your first drill.

One parent/guardian will need to accompany you for a brief parent orientation. If all your paperwork is in order, the parent orientation should take less than one hour.

You’ll need to bring:

  • Unit enrollment fee of $100 (Cash or check made payable to USNSCC Rochester CA-124)

  • $40 to purchase PT Gear

On your first day, you should wear:

  • Long pants - jeans or black. No shorts.

  • Coyote brown or white plain-colored t-shirt. No patterns or logos.

  • Black or white crew socks

  • Athletic shoes

  • No jewelry or hats
