Civil Air Patrol Cadet 1st Lt. Hanna Syska grins after completing a tricycle course wearing alcohol impairment goggles. Cadets had the opportunity to wear the goggles for a class discussing the consequences of substance abuse. She said: "I found this class interesting because it is important to spread awareness of the effects of substance abuse, and to give the cadets an opportunity to safely experience its effects hands-on."
