Here To View A Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation About The ACA Following the emphasis on youth development which has been targeted by the Department of Defense, the American Cadet Alliance utilizes the spirit, traditions, and models of the U.S. Armed Forces to further the development of America's youth. The development of body, mind, and spirit are the key elements of this program. These elements are stimulated through close order drill, precision military formations, physical fitness, martial arts, and the privilege of wearing a military uniform. Skill areas include instruction in both basic military and high adventure training, such as Rappelling and Mountain Climbing; Map, Compass, and Land Navigation; Marksmanship and Weapons Safety; First Aid and Water Survival; and Scuba Diving and Small Boat Handling. Instruction is given in both classroom and hands-on environments. Through a challenging, supportive and encouraging atmosphere, each Cadet has ample opportunity to develop through personal experience, an increased level of self-confidence, self-reliance, and personal and national pride. Our program develops leadership by recognizing excellence resulting in promotion in rank. This is reinforced with the values of integrity, loyalty, and moral courage. A cadet's accomplishments are rewarded by both promotions and awards. Rank and awards worn on the uniform represent achievements for all to see. The ACA achieves its goals through military discipline, dedication, motivation, responsibility and accountability. We endeavor to prepare well-rounded patriots and leaders -- not warriors!
