The Cadets of Detachment 592 is organizing a Dining Out ceremony in support of the Detachment’s Cadets in their efforts to become an Officer in the United States Air Force or Space Force.
The Dining Out Ceremony is a formal banquet in Dress uniform which honors and recognizes Cadets in the Detachment for their accomplishments. Scholarships are awarded to cadets from various national organizations, and ribbons and medals are awarded for internal performance. This ceremony replicates active duty Dining Out banquets and exposes our cadets to what it is like to be an Officer in the Big Blue.
We are seeking funds to ensure we are able to orchestrate this event to be as formal as an active duty ceremony. We will be using funds on food catering, award presentations, and subsidizing tickets so that our cadets will not have to pay to attend.
*This is used for the cadets and not in support of AFROTC or the Air force.

The Air Force ROTC program at UNC Charlotte is an Air Force commissioning program and leadership training program centered around the college experience. Our cadets are students first, focused on academic excellence, and also participate in classes and training sessions where they hone their leadership and management skills. It is a challenging program with an worthwhile reward: a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the US Air Force or US Space Force upon graduation
