 AFJROTC Students Receive Scholarship

Air Force Junior ROTC cadets Lukas Lorkowski, a 12th grader Junior ROTC cadet at Norco HS, and David Cudeck II, an 11th grader at Santiago HS, have received a scholarship to participate in a private pilot license training program in the summer of 2021.

Lukas and David are two of 314 Air Force Junior ROTC cadets around the world to receive the scholarship from Headquarters Air Force Junior ROTC, Maxwell Air Force Base, Montgomery, AL.

The Flight Academy Scholarship Program is an Air Force-level initiative in collaboration with the commercial aviation industry to address the national civilian and military pilot shortage. The Flight Academy allows aspiring young aviators to get their Private Pilot’s Certification, at no cost, during an eight-week summer course at partner universities.

The mission of Air Force Junior ROTC is to develop citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community while instilling values of citizenship, service to the United States, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment.
