Thanks for posting this - Capt Welsh here- the video I originally uploaded was removed from YT, I guess because of the music in it (??). This was a great encampment- huge-200 in-flight cadets, ~70 cadet staff. All cadets earned model rocketry badges, had an NCO academy plus all the activities featured. This was the last year at Drum. Next year was at Stratton ANGB. I imagine we would go back to Drum in the future, when the wars finally end.

Oh and the tanks were flippin' awesome to witness :)

Can't go till next year but I'm looking forward to it!
