Re: The REAL problems aboard ship: Recruiting

Kevin:

I'll provide other ideas later, but as for recruiting Sea Scouts for your
ship, I suggest that you contact the Naval Science Instructors (NSI's) of the
various Naval Junior ROTC programs at the numerous high schools in the Los
Angeles area. Go to www.cnet.navy.mil/njrotc/hosts.htm to get a complete list
of the schools and their addresses. By doing this, you will reach students
who already have an interest in maritime activities. It is important that you
fully explain the benefits of membership to the Naval Science Instructor, and
perhaps even consider recuiting the instructor as a mate to help you out. One
of the things that you can tell him/her is that Sea Scouts can earn the
Quartermaster award, which looks impressive on an application for Navy ROTC
college scholarships and Naval Academy appointments. Moreover, many of the
things learned in Sea Explorers are also covered in NJROTC, so both programs
support each other to a great extent. I have tried flyers and newspaper
articles in our community with essentially no success. I believe your best
hope is to have the NSI push the Sea Explorer program for you within his or
class. A short list of high schools with NJROTC programs in your area
includes Anaheim, Phineas Banning (Wilmngton), Culver City, El Camino Real
(Woodland Hills), Hawthorne, John F. Kennedy (Granada Hills), Lakewood Senior,
AJ Locke (LA), Pasadena, Ramona, Reseda Senior, Santa Ana, Savanna (Anaheim),
and Woodrow Wilson (Long Beach). You might even consider doing the same with
Army and Air Force Junior ROTC programs in your area. Also, don't overlook
the local Civil Air Patrol squadron for potential members.
