Our mission is to build leaders of character

The mission of the United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps is to build leaders of character by imbuing in our cadets the highest ideals of honor, respect, commitment, and service.

To develop an interest and skill in seamanship and provide instruction in leadership, courage and commitment, the USNSCC training program acquaints cadets with CPR and First Aid, Swimming, Lifesaving and Water Safety, Health and Hygiene in a drug-free, gang-free environment through lectures and hands-on practice.

The standardized training program provides approximately 8300 training opportunities at navy or coast guard bases, ships and aircraft squadrons. Cadets have a diverse selection of advanced training including Aviation, Ship Propulsion Systems, Submarine Systems, Medical/Hospital/Surgical, Legal/JAG Corps, Homeland Security, Navy Seal, Basic Marine Mammal Sciences, Sailing, Scuba Diving, Amphibious Operations, Math, Engineering and much more. The program emphasizes leadership skills, while cadets are exposed to a variety of civilian and military career opportunities and encouraged to participate in civic activities.

WHO WE ARE

The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps is a youth program for young Americans, male and female, ages 13 through 17, whose objectives are to develop an interest and skill in basic seamanship and in its naval adaptations, to train them in seagoing skills and to teach them patriotism, courage, self-reliance and kindred virtues. Cadets train aboard the ships and shore activities of the Navy and Coast Guard, and are authorized by the Secretary of the Navy to wear Navy uniforms appropriately marked with Sea Cadet Corps insignia. There are some 400 units in operation in almost every state in the union as well as Puerto Rico and Guam, with some 6,000 young Americans participating. The Naval Sea Cadet Corps affords equal opportunity for participation to all American youth without regard to race, color, religion or sex.

WHAT
WE DO

We provide compelling, life-changing programs for America’s youth that teach them the values of teamwork, discipline, service, and ethical leadership through our passionate all-volunteer force and our partnerships with the Navy and Coast Guard.

OUR
RESULTS

In 2020 alone, we have served 9,600 cadets. Despite the global pandemic, our cadets have stayed motivated and determined to become stronger leaders, rooted in the values of honor, respect, commitment, and service.

SULLIVANS
DIVISION

The Sullivans Division of the U.S. Navy Sea and League Cadet youth program is named after the five Sullivan brothers  who were World War II sailors serving together on the USS Juneau (CL-52). They were all killed in action on its sinking around November 13, 1942.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
US Naval Sea Cadet Corps –
Sullivans Division

All prospective cadets must be unmarried, enrolled in school, have parental consent and possess good moral character in addition to being interested in the program and prepared to attend drills regularly.

You are eligible to join if you are 13 years of age or have not reached your 18th birthday.

*For League Cadets you need to be 10 years of age and have not yet reached your 13th birthday.

A medical examination similar to a high school sports physical is required for all cadet applicants to the Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) or Navy League Cadet Corps (NLCC). No one will be denied admission to the NSCC/NLCC due to a medical disability. Where a medical condition precludes full, unlimited participation, a Request for Accommodation (NSCADM 015) may be presented by the parent or guardian for review so the cadet may participate in NSCC activities to the maximum extent possible.

The Sea Cadets was established by the Navy League of the United States at the request of the Department of the Navy in 1962 to “create a favorable image of the Navy on the part of American youth”.

Today the Sea Cadets continue to further the image of our maritime services by:

  • Developing an interest and ability in seamanship and seagoing skills.

  • Instilling virtues of good citizenship and strong moral principles in each cadet.

  • Demonstrating the value of an alcohol-free, drug-free and gang-free lifestyle.

  • Exposing cadets to the prestige of public service and a variety of career paths through hands-on training with our nation’s armed services.​

The mission of the Sea Cadets is to build leaders of character by imbuing in our cadets the highest ideals of honor, respect, commitment, and service.
