The RTC is the United States Navy facility for conducting the initial orientation and indoctrination of incoming recruits, also known as boot camp and recruit training, or RTC.  If you have not attended an Encampment previously, you should plan to attend Encampment this SPRING! Completing a Civil Air Patrol Encampment is a prerequisite to earning the CAP General Billy Mitchell Award. In addition to gaining useful leadership experience and in-depth knowledge of the United States Air Force and Civil Air Patrol, you will meet cadets from Illinois Wing and other Wings and share in a week of learning, sports, and social activities.
