‘Per Ardua, Ad Alta’
El Toro Battalion is located in Irvine, California. Our goal is to instill discipline, pride, motivation, self-reliance, and self-respect in our cadets. It is through rigorous training evolutions and proper guidance that we accomplish this.
El Toro Battalion is active year-around. Our weekend drill dates change monthly. Please refer to our Unit Calendar for the Plan of the Month (POM).
Our History
Trieste 2 Division
Trieste had long been a highly successful unit in the U.S. Naval Sea Cadets Corps, setting the national standard for youth excellence.
El Toro Battalion
We transitioned into a Seabee Battalion and changed our name to explicitly honor the brave men and women who served on the historic El Toro Air Station.
U.S. NAVAL SEA CADET CORPS
On September 10, 1962, Congress federally incorporated the US Naval Sea Cadet Corps under Public Law 87-655 after recognizing the vital importance and benefits of the NSCC.
Since 1958, the Naval Sea Cadet Corps has been committed to providing American youth with a drug and alcohol free environment to foster their leadership abilities, broaden their horizons through hands-on training and guide them to becoming mature young adults.
