To become a Sea Cadet, you must join a local Sea Cadet unit. In San Antonio, the local unit is the Alamo Battalion. You must (1) complete a membership application, (2) visit with our commanding officer, and (3) pay your membership dues. The step-by-step details are below.
 
The Application: The membership application is called an NSCADM 001. You can download it as either a PDF, or Microsoft Word doc. It has eleven pages, but depending upon your situation, you may not need to fill out all of them. For just a visit before joining, we need you to fill out pages 1 – 4.
  • Pages 1-4 are required for everyone. For a cadet to register, we must have their vaccination records, including proof of immunization for polio, measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, pertussis and tetanus plus diphtheria and vaccine for Meningitis.
  • Pages 5-6 are required and must be filled signed by the cadet’s medical provider.
  • Pages 7-8 are required for cadets who will be taking medication (either OTC or prescription) at Sea Cadet training. If the cadet is going to take prescription drugs, this form requires the medical provider’s signature.
  • Pages 9-10 are only required if the cadet is seeking an accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Other cadets do not need to fill out this form.
  • Page 11 is a parental support agreement where we ask parents to pitch in somehow with recruiting, volunteering, fundraising or other support. It is appreciated but not required.
The Visit: Now that we are emerging from COVID restrictions, we will begin drilling again in person. To arrange a visit, you must first email the application (with the first four pages filled out) and your request to attend drill to ENS Conroy at alamobnpao@gmail.com. If you do not know how to fill in something on the form, leave it blank. You can sign the form at drill. He will tell you when and where to report. You should also review the Prospective Cadet Visit Guide for information on what to expect and what to bring.
 
The Dues: In 2021, our dues for the first year of membership are $150. After that, dues are $100 per year. The first-year dues are higher to help defray some of the costs of uniform items that we loan to our cadets. You can pay by check at drill or send a Zelle payment to: USNSCC--ALAMO BATTALION, AUSTIN. The email associated with that account is: alamobattalion@gmail.com.
