Move in day for Cadet and Senior Staff

At 1600, cadet staff start arriving at Camp LeJeune. When they got to the barracks, they
encountered a problem. Apparently Marines that were about to be shipped out overseas had moved into our barracks, and because of this, encampment would have to be postponed or even cancelled within half an hour. However, due to the diligent work of the Civil Air Patrol senior members, the chain of command was followed all the way up to the Executive Officer, which told us that we were promised the barracks for the week, and that we will get nothing less. With that mess finally straitened out, the Cadet staff began preparing for basics. From arranging bunks to preparing PT shirts, everyone was busy making sure that all was ready for the anticipated arrival. A few basics who had been compelled to catch a ride with staff, were put to work carrying in equipment and obeying any of the senior staff's whims. Encampment is getting off to a great start.
