Communications Training this Week (19 July!)

Squadron 150 will be hosting this month's Joint Group 7 Emergency Services Training during our weekly squadron meeting this Thursday 19 July beginning at 1930 hours (7:30pm). 


This training will be conducted by Lt. Col. William Phinizy the Group 7 Communications Officer and is intended to be a  "hands on" exercise emphasizing the actual communications procedures and practices during a Search and Rescue mission. This will involve members playing different roles and using Civil Air Patrol (CAP) communications equipment while being monitored and coached. All Group 7 members (especially cadets) are encouraged to attend, even if if you do hold a communications rating. 

This is precisely the type of intro exercise you will run into at a search and rescue mission or training mission and it will be an excellent opportunity for folks to get coached and overcome "mic fright" on the radios!

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday night!
