With Jonathan and Philip Pang's help, many fathers and sons did the uniform care with the chambray shirt and all were wearing the uniforms today. The meeting started with the flag ceremony and the ALERT Cadet motto and covenant, led by Jonathan and Philip Pang.

Jeff gave the opening prayer and led the devotion, sharing some thoughts regarding the ALERT motto "Strong to Overcome" that we are commanded by God to be strong in obeying His words so that we are empowered by Him to overcome the evil one and any obstacles.

Then Jonathan and Philip Pang demonstrated how to do the uniform care for the BDU pants, the belt and the cover. (Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, Video 4) They also taught the ALERT Cadet dress code. Just a FYI, if anyone wants to get the Khaki slacks and the belt, they can go to ALERT Cadet store or just any other store. The recommended Khaki slacks is Dickies 874.

Philip demonstrated uniform care for the cover.

Jonathan adjusted the belt length for Justice.

Afterwards, Kevin led the fun game which all people form a circle and one person in the center calls the name of anyone, and the two persons beside the one being called need to respond immediately. It was a really fun game. Also, Jeff provided the refreshments. And last but not least, thanks a million to Pastor Joe for taking these nice pictures!

After Jeff gave the opening prayer, he also led the award ceremony. Jonathan was awarded with the Commendation Award, which was given for action above and beyond the call of duty by directly participating in the saving of life. Jonathan saved a lady from drowning last year and thus was granted this highest honor. Also, Philip (Liu) was awarded Phase Scripture Memory ribbon for the completion of Novice Workbook Phase 1 booklet bible verses.

Andrew then led the devotion, sharing that we should not judge others by appearance.

Then Jonathan and Philip (Pang) taught and demonstrated the uniform care - chambray. Uniform care is a very important skill to all ALERT Cadet fathers and sons, and this demonstration is very valuable and helpful to all of us. (Video 1) (Video 2)
