The Banquet - what a story!

All the competing teams attended a formal banquet on Saturday night - for dinner and the presentation of awards.

CAP banquets are occasionally a little dull - but this one was certainly not the case - primarily due to some antics from the COWG/TVCS Drill Team.

A number of the cadets had been impressed by the number of girls on the UTAH Drill Team (it would seem that a couple of the cadets were just impressed with the girls too!) so a plot was hatched to serenede all 6 Utah girls with the 'Top Gun' bar scene! For those who aren't Tom Cruise fans (and lets face it, who IS!?) - here's the clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQtGZKdW0Xc&feature=related

The serenede was executed by 6 TVCS cadets lead by C/1Lt "Maverick" Caldwell and C/Capt "Goose" Kent, much to the delight of all the teams. The 'naval aviators' then presented each Utah girl with a red rose which, by now, matched their rosy red cheeks!

This set the scene for the rest of the evening and resulted in some great post competition comraderie between the two opponents

Once the banquet was over the teams posed for photos and the then the TVCS team started an impomptu conga line in the Base parking lot, to the tune of "Boom, boom, boom, boom I want you in my room!" The look on the CAP Regional Commander's face was a classic as the conga surrounded him, his vehicle and his guests.

He was heard to comment..... "if this is what they do when they lose, what's gonna happen when they WIN!"

Photos of the event will be posted soon - and we hope to have Maverick and Goose on video soon too!
