Petty Officer's Leadership Academy - March 2005 - Camp Dodge, Iowa |
| This years POLA was very different from the
POLA of 2004. The weather, the people and the experiences gave this year's
class of graduates something to remember. Each cadet came to this training
with their own set of expectations and goals. The long training days which
started early in the morning and ended late into the night focused on the
skills and decision making abilities a good leader will need to meet the
future challenges of the Navy and Sea Cadet Corps. A week may not seem like a long period of time. However, in one week these cadets created team bonds and started down the road of being excellent leaders. As each cadet left to return to their home unit, they took with them the best of what they mastered. The POLA class of 2004 has come and gone, but they take into their future the new friendships and experiences, and skills they found here. They are tomorrow's leaders. |
