Monday, June 30

CADETS Activities for cadets on this first offcial day cross the spectrum from the ordinary (weigh-ins, filling out forms) to the outstanding (swearing-in ceremony). Cadets check-in between 7 and 8:20 am on a staggered schedule according to their company and, immediately after, change their clothing and proceed through an individualized company rotation, each of which includes the following routine (and not so routine) R-Day tasks:

• Hair Cut
• Mail Box Issue
• Weigh-In
• Lunch
• Drill Practice
• Uniform Issue

All companies reconvene on Washington Parade Field at 3 PM for the public SWEARING-IN CEREMONY. This is then followed by the Class Photo and FINAL GOODBYES to family and friends. The remainder of the day for cadets includes a welcome address from the Commandant of Cadets, introduction of the Regimental Staff, a Medical Services Brief and an Evening Formation and Dinner. Finally, a Fire Drill and period for Company Time will end the day which marks the beginning of the transformation of the Class of 2012 from young civilian men and women into the select group of "Leaders of Character" which they will become.
