MISSION

 

Our mission is to instill character in each cadet with teamwork, leadership, discipline, and self reliance. In particular, teamwork is the key element to our success as a unit and as individuals. We train each and every cadet, preparing them for their future role as our nation’s leaders, civilian and military.

 

TRAINING   Coronado Battalion is fortunate to be positioned on Naval Base Coronado (NBC). The unit receives classroom and hands-on-training from active duty members of the U.S. Navy, the Seabees, and US Marines, making it educational and adventurous. When not training with members of active duty service or reserve units, the unit participates in other activities and events, such as their annual flagship competition and community service, combining fun and hard work to bring out the best in each and every cadet.

 

SPONSORS

 

We are co-sponsored by Amphibious Construction Battalion One (ACB1), located here at the Naval Amphibious Base (NAB) and the Amphibious ship, the BonHomme Richard (LHD-6).

 

The Naval Sea Cadet Corps is a non-profit organization. Coronado Battalion's financial sponsor is the Coronado Council of the Navy League of the United States. We also try raising money on our own through raffle tickets, car washes, and candy sales to purchase supplies, uniform, equipment, and other necessary items and also to defray some of the cost of training for cadets.

 

Please check out our "Sponsor" page to see how you can help support the unit.  Thank you.
