Cadet Maj. Joshua Myrick was recently named Cadet of the Year by the Hawaii Wing of the Civil Air Patrol. This award nominates him to compete for the Pacific Region award of the same name and on to National Cadet of the Year should he be selected by the region. This is the second year in a row Myrick has received the award.
He has earned the respect of his peers and adult members of not only the Kona Composite Squadron but the Hawaii Wing because of his commitment to the goals of the Civil Air Patrol. He mentors youth in Civil Air Patrol and in other settings. Twice, he has testified before the County Council on behalf of bills that support West Hawaii Veterans Cemetery and the annual Wreaths Across America Ceremony, effectively helping raise more than $8,000 and volunteers in many other facets.
Also receiving Hawaii Wing awards from Kona Composite Squadron were Cadet/1st Lt. Ragan Leslie for the Aerospace Education Cadet of the Year, Cadet/Chief Master Sgt. Lawrence Barrett for the Air Force Sergeants Assoc. Cadet NCO of the Year and 1st Lt. Antony Mitchell for the Public Affairs Officer of the Year.
The Kona Composite Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol meets from 6 to 8:30 p.m. every Tuesday at its airport building.
