TRAINEES JOIN CADET WING AT ACCEPTANCE PARADE
U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. – Members of the Air Force Academy’s Class of 2014 will pin on their first military rank and swear to uphold the Academy Honor Code at their Acceptance Parade, Wednesday at 9 a.m., on the Academy’s Stillman Parade Field.
The parade marks their acceptance into the cadet wing, when they transition from “basic cadet trainees” with no rank, to pinning on their fourth-class cadet rank and becoming fourth class cadets or “doolies.”
The Honor Code is the minimum standard of behavior and performance expected of all Air Force Academy cadets, and reads: “We will not lie, steal or cheat, nor tolerate among us anyone who does.”
The newly minted freshman cadets begin their academic semester Thursday. Beyond continuing their military training, athletic competitions and character development activities, each new cadet will take 15 semester hours, before ramping up to the average courseload of 18 semester hours in the spring. Graduation for the Class of 2014 is set for May 28, 2014.
The U.S. Air Force Academy, located in Colorado Springs, Colo., is a four-year bachelor of science degree university. The Academy's mission is to educate, train and inspire men and women to become officers of character motivated to lead the U.S. Air Force in service to our nation. All graduates are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Air Force. For more information on the Academy, visit www.usafa.af. mil.
