Cadet Needed!

   If you would like to write the news articles for the KOAFJROTC Web Site (this page), please email Curtis McMinn. An idea of what is going on throughout the entire group and regular attendance to staff meetings is highly suggested. If you would like to send in something to be added to the news page, please email me or see me at school with details.

The following was emailed to me regarding our site. The sender was C/Captain Chad Richardson (E Flight Commander). The letter has numerous suggestions and thoughts about what he thinks the site should be like and what needs to be changed. This was the email:

Hey, about our ROTC website...

1st - On the "Barracks" page, the graphics take way too long to load and wen it loads they don't even show up, and the content on the barracks page is the exact same stuff (links) that is on the main page. I could help you come up with some ideas for new content on the barracks page, if you want...

2nd - On the "Picture Gallery" page, some of the pictures are outdated [ex: The Drill Team picture/s needs to be updated, also you have pictures on there with kids that are not in ROTC anymore (or so i've heard)] Somebody should be at every event that our unit is participating in and take good, up-to-date photos of cadets in action. Possibly some pictures taken randomly around the unit of cadets doing our daily/weekly activities such as: flight inspections on thursdays (talk to me personally about this), pictures in class (talk to me about this), there are a few more things but then this e-mail would be way too long, just contact me sometime at school or whatever. I can help with the pictures as in taking them, uploading or scanning them to PC, and making the file sizes small enough so they will not take forever to load...(get with me on this)

3rd - On the "Teams and Activities" page, there is no pictures of the various teams, There atleast should be a up-to-date list of each cadet on that team, and on that specific team's page there should be a list of awards that team has won and at what activity they won them at.

{a GOOD note* The scripts on the "new" page are great and they look and work well, good job on those!}

4th - The "News" page, c/MSgt Beasley said she would write the news? Where's the news at? just wondering. There should be up-to-date info on the daily info that us cadets might NEED to know, as in certain changes in uniform days (such as tomorrow "friday" we are wearing our uniforms for the unit inspection) various stuff like that.

All of these suggestions are great. However, as I stated when I wrote him back, I do need help with the site. If you are interested, or would like to add your thoughts, email me or talk to me at school. Thanks!
