IT IS NOT A PART OF THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE OR ANY OF ITS COMPONENTS AND IT HAS NO GOVERNMENTAL STATUS. The Cadet for a Day (C4aD) is cadet-run program designed to honor local children and families who are struggling to overcome serious physical challenges. The cadet staff and sponsor squadron works tirelessly to create an unforgettable
day(s) for our VIP Cadets for a Day and their families. We
invite our C4aD to be part of the Cadet Wing and experience the best parts of cadet life (so, no room inspections or rifle runs!). The C4aD experience includes induction as an honorary member of a Cadet Squadron, tour of the Air Force's Academy and unique adventures tailored to our C4aD's preferences. In the past, some events have included a Chemistry Magic Show, favorite movie on the big screen, tour of Security Forces K-9s, parachute ground training, and special access to AFA athletic events. Every event is special and truly life-changing for everyone involved. Our C4aD and their families are heroes worth celebrating and we are honored they want to be a part of USAFA!
