Change of Cadet Command Announced

Ascension Composite Squadron announced that C/2nd Lt Gage Tressit has taken over as Cadet Commander for the squadron. They will have the change of command ceremony at the Open House / Awards and Recognition program on Monday June 11. All are invited and should have received invitations last month. It is also posted on this blog. if you need more information contact Lt Pike.

This is an exciting time but bittersweet, as it ends an era where Cadet Cheif Master Sgt Delbasty has led and developed our squadron into what it is today. But the season has come to give him a break and allow new leaders to rise to the challenge. We do appreciate all that Delbasty did while C/Commander and believe he has a lot to show for it.
