Known nationally for being one of the top detachments in the country, Detachment 695 is a place for aspiring Air Force officers to grow and develop. Cadets learn how to manage their time, work under pressure, and make sound judgments in all types of situations. The motto of Detachment 695 is Ignis Intus, which means “The Fire Within.” Each cadet has an inner fire that is cultivated and fed here at University of Portland. Detachment 695 prepares young men and women to be some of the finestofficers commissioned into the United States Air force, and that is no light undertaking.

Ever wonder what your career in the Air Force could actually look like? 👀
Career Day LLAB is here! Personnel from multiple bases like PANG and JBLM came to Det 695 to share how they got where they are, from their first steps to the journey that shaped their careers. With 16 personnel representing 14 career fields, there’s a lot to explore.
This is the moment for cadets to start thinking about which AFSC they want to chase. Pick their brains, ask the real questions, and explore career fields you may not have considered. Your future specialty could be one you haven’t even heard of yet.

Attention to detail starts here.
This LLAB, our cadets took on Open Rank Inspection (ORI) procedures. The newest cadets built a foundation in ORI fundamentals while reinforcing their drill. Our basic cadet leaders practiced advanced drill and showed how they think critically while commanding a flight.
Leadership isn’t just knowing the procedure. It’s being prepared, thinking on your feet, and helping the person next to you get better. That’s how we build future officers. . .
