Hello,
I came back from the Nesscliffe Cadet Leadership a Course on Friday and obviously got the cadet leadership course badge. I was wondering if we are allowed to wear the badge on our left blanking patch? Considering it’s a recognised course and it’s a Tri service badge?
Thank you

Hi Cpl, no you aren’t. Only badges in AP1358c are authorised for wearing, and this isn’t listed for a blanking plate.
That just seems silly, like it’s a Tri service badge and everything but fair answer. I saw all the empty spaces in the AP and I thought it might be one of them.
Thank you. Anyway!

Oneof the cadetsonmy squadron was on this exact course with you and wastold by the Major running it that it couldbe worn on the Brassard, This is NOT CORRECT, your CO will need to contact TG2 at HQAi Cadets to get you the Correct Air Cadet Leadership badge,the oval blue badge with the eagle as thisisthe only badge you can wear… andyes I agree theone you where givenis actualy quite smart soswe it ontoyour rucksack or something.
Unfortuanatley thisistheonly badgeyou can wearandit needs tobe sewn on directly under your classification badge

When do do you apply for this course because I would like to go on the CLC Nesscliffe 2015?
Cant you put this on your greens?
Simply put, no you are not allowed to wear this badge when in air cadet uniform. It is not authorised, save it for a camp fire blanket etc
So when do you apply then?
The oval ‘Air Cadet Leadership’ badge goes on the centreish of the brassard, and is the only leadership badge permitted to be worn on air cadet uniform. All other flavours of leadership course insignia are not to be worn in uniform, apart from the JLS lanyard. As I said above stick any other type on a campfire blanket or in a draw, just not on your uniform.
Speak to your staff, looking at bader it looks towards the end of this year to early next year when the application forms are accepted.
On BADER is that about the badge being able to be put on the blanking patches or about the actual course?
