So interestingly in earlier posts there were several comments about how little cadet forces involvement was but it turns out it’s a Decent number albeit being coordinated through the Army/CCF.
It’s a shame there’s not been much fanfare in air cadet side so not sure if some professional jealousy has crept in.
GVC not being included makes sense; they’re the remnants of the former gender-segregated cadet corps and not MOD funded.
Interesting that the RM cadets are listed; they’re part of the Volunteer Cadet Corps. The Royal Navy are a little greedy and sponsor both the Sea Cadet Corps and the Volunteer Cadet Corps, the latter of which has both RN and RM divisions.
It’s applying that same split to the CCF that can bring you to 11, depending on which definition is used on the day.
On the basis that we’ve not heard anything out in the sticks about this fantastic opportunity for cadets, how to apply, selection process etc etc, I’m guessing it’s another of those LaSER only things?
That is for the 40ish cadets that have been invited down to represent the organisation. The RAFAC banner bearer will be pick from one of them at the practice/rehearsal at Wittering next Friday.
