A "Cadet" is a trainee who is preparing for a career in the military, police, or other uniformed services. Cadets typically undergo rigorous training that includes physical fitness, leadership skills, and discipline. They often attend military academies or training programs where they learn the fundamentals of their chosen field. In many countries, cadets are part of a structured program that may include classroom instruction and hands-on experience. They may also participate in drills, exercises, and community service. Successful completion of a cadet program can lead to a commission as an officer or a position in a related service, such as the United States Army or Royal Air Force.
