00:02.380 --> 00:04.820
Team two A F this weekend , second Air

00:04.829 --> 00:06.909
Force hosted pathways to Blue right

00:06.920 --> 00:08.864
here at Keisler for the first time

00:08.864 --> 00:12.310
since 2019 , we hosted over 100 and 70

00:12.319 --> 00:14.930
R O T C cadets from detachments across

00:14.939 --> 00:16.995
the country who came here to see and

00:16.995 --> 00:19.106
experience what life could be like as

00:19.106 --> 00:21.200
an officer in the Air Force , these

00:21.209 --> 00:23.376
cadets started out meeting key leaders

00:23.376 --> 00:25.431
from across the numbered Air Force .

00:25.431 --> 00:27.376
They also got incentive flights on

00:27.376 --> 00:30.010
helicopters and C130S got a hands on

00:30.020 --> 00:31.950
experience with aircraft , static

00:31.959 --> 00:34.439
displays and had some time for one on

00:34.450 --> 00:37.250
one mentorship with officers . Some

00:37.259 --> 00:39.203
even got the chance to use virtual

00:39.203 --> 00:41.315
reality sets and equipment they might

00:41.315 --> 00:43.680
one day use on the job . My favorite

00:43.689 --> 00:46.229
part on base was probably the airfield

00:46.240 --> 00:49.409
and being able to see the different

00:49.569 --> 00:51.880
aircraft and how they all work together

00:51.889 --> 00:54.000
to make it run so smoothly , maybe in

00:54.000 --> 00:55.970
such a chaotic area . We had some

00:55.979 --> 00:58.035
former cadets that had been here and

00:58.035 --> 01:00.257
they highly encouraged it . So it was a

01:00.257 --> 01:02.423
really good opportunity for me to come

01:02.423 --> 01:04.590
here to learn more about what I can be

01:04.590 --> 01:06.368
doing now and more about what I

01:06.368 --> 01:08.479
possibly might be doing in the future

01:08.479 --> 01:10.646
in the United States Air Force . These

01:10.646 --> 01:12.757
cadets from different backgrounds had

01:12.757 --> 01:14.701
two days packed full of events and

01:14.701 --> 01:16.923
opportunities to see how they can bring

01:16.923 --> 01:17.080
their skills to the future .
