Muster Definition:
The term muster means the process or event of accounting for members in a military unit. This practice of inspections led to the coining of the English idiom pass muster, meaning being sufficient. When a unit is created, it is “mustered in” and when it is disbanded, it is “mustered out”.
E1 – Seaman Recruit Requirements:
All cadets attending NSCC Recruit Training (RT) must complete their E1 – Seaman Recruit prior to attending Recruiter Training. Cadets that complete their entire E1 – Seaman Recruit prior to RT will be promoted to E-2 upon successful completion and graduation of RT.

AUTHORIZED ABSENCE:

REQUIRED ITEMS:
All hands are to bring a bag lunch with beverage, PT gear, towel, military courses, water bottle, pen and notebook to drill. Cadets not having these items may be required to buy them at their own expense.
BEHAVIOR:
Cadets are reminded that talking, skylarking (horseplay), hazing or other disturbances will not be tolerated. Any cadet found violating this policy will be given Extra Military Instruction (EMI) or sent home depending on the frequency and/or severity of the disturbance.
