This week, LLAB took place at the University of Central Missouri (UCM) in Warrensburg, MO, which is 90 miles from Columbia. UCM is one of AFROTC Detachment 440's crosstown schools, the others, however, are in Columbia or nearby. The decision to hold a LLAB at UCM was made to be a logistical exercise. Supplies had to be transported, carpools for the cadets had to be established, area to hold LLAB and class had to be reserved, and cadets had to know how to get to UCM and where to park once they were on campus.
Besides being successful in its mission for cadets to practice logistics on a larger scale, the MU cadets got a taste of what UCM cadets have to do every week in their 4-hour round-trip to MU.
This week, we practiced Pass In Review again and then completed an official one, accomplishing a required event for the year. In addition, we did a run-through of the pass in review that we will be doing next week with the Army and Navy at the Joint Service Awards Parade on 24 April.
