The USMA SCUBA Team recently conducted diving operations at Dutch Springs, PA. The purpose of this trip was to familiarize the newest team members of the team with general dive operations, and more particularly those that occur at Dutch Springs. This trip not only served as an effective team-building exercise, but also set conditions for future success for the team’s National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI) open water certification trips that occur each semester.
The mission of the USMA SCUBA Team is to afford cadets and military personnel the opportunity to become NAUI certified SCUBA divers. This certification as well as other diving trips conducted by the team, allows individuals to enjoy the sport of recreational SCUBA diving. Additionally, those cadets who have completed the SCUBA curriculum and have a NAUI referral, can complete their SCUBA certification through the team.
