Existing law establishes in state government the Military Department, which includes, among others, the Office of the Adjutant General, the California National Guard, and the California Cadet Corps. Existing law establishes various duties for these officers and entities. Existing law generally authorizes the organization of a cadet company at each college, community college, high school, and each senior high school in this state having 100 or more students of 14 years of age or over under such rules and regulations as the governing body of the schools and the Adjutant General may prescribe, and authorizes the Adjutant General to appoint officers in the California Cadet Corps for duty in each community college, high school, junior high school, or elementary school under the jurisdiction of the governing board. This bill would authorize the organization of a California Cadet Corps at each college, community college, or school where there is not currently a J.R.O.T.C. or R.O.T.C. program, and under such rules and regulations as the governing body of the schools and the Adjutant General may prescribe. This bill would also authorize the Adjutant General to appoint officers, warrant officers, and noncommissioned officers for duty in each college, community college, or school under the jurisdiction of the governing board, and require that their pay, allowances, and expenses be disbursed from the college, community college, or school in which they serve. This bill would authorize the Adjutant General to order those officers to temporary state active duty to perform functions in support of the California Cadet Corps. Additionally, this bill authorizes the Governor, upon recommendation of the Adjutant General, to appoint Special Project Officers, warrant officers, and noncommissioned officers for service in the California Cadet Corps, and authorizes the Adjutant General to adopt rules and regulations for the promotion of officers, warrant officers, and noncommissioned officers of the California Cadet Corps. Existing law authorizes members of the California Cadet Corps to use California National Guard rifle ranges. This bill would authorize members of the California Cadet Corps to use California National Guard facilities for training purposes. Existing law authorizes any executive officer, assistant executive officer, supervisor of cadet instruction, or officer hurt in the line of duty to receive workers' compensation, as provided. Existing law creates a presumption that the average yearly earning of such individual is not less than $2,500. This bill would authorize any executive officer, assistant executive officer, advisor, officer, warrant officer, or noncommissioned officer hurt in the line of duty to receive workers' compensation, as provided. This bill would create a presumption that the yearly earning of such individual is not less than $10,000. Existing law authorizes the instructors of a military academy meeting specified requirements, including having 80 or more male students, to be commissioned in the California Cadet Corps, and authorizes the Adjutant General to enter into a cooperative agreement with the City of Oakland and a school district to establish an Oakland Military Institute. This bill would authorize the instructors of a military academy meeting specified requirements, including having more than 80 students, to be commissioned in the California Cadet Corps, and authorize the Adjutant General to enter into a cooperative agreement with a governing board of a school district or a county office of education to establish a military academy or an alternative education option, as specified. Existing law requires units of the California Cadet Corps to be inspected at least once each year by the executive officer, the assistant executive officer, the regional supervisors of cadet instruction, or any of them, or by officers of the National Guard, State Military Reserve, or Naval Militia detailed by the Adjutant General for that purpose. This bill would instead require the executive officer, the assistant executive officer, the regional advisors or military officers of the California National Guard, State Military Reserve, or Naval Militia detailed by the Adjutant General to inspect units of the California Cadet Corps at least once every 2 years and annually for any unit receiving a rating of unsatisfactory in a prior year's inspection. This bill would also require units in their first year of operation to receive an assistance visit to ensure assigned personnel receive the training and support needed to adequately prepare for their first formal, for-record inspection. This bill would also make other conforming changes.
