Do you have what it takes to be a part of the Flying Gators??

For this reason, certain minimum eligibility requirements are in place. If you meet the requirements and are up to the challenge, you can rest assured that the cadre and cadet corps of Detachment 150, the Gator Det, will be with you every step of the way.
