Wjat happens to cadets that have radio badges or band badges that have been obtained in either the ATC or CCF RAF. Since they are not promotions, can they carry over.
If they’ve been awarded correctly then yes.

Also what happens on the modern day if a cadet NCO from a neighbouring unit visits to lead an activity.
It happens back when I was in and the cadet NCO’s rank wasn’t called into question at all, the entire night.
Why should it be? If they are there in a leadership position as an external instructor why should their authority be questioned? As a temporary visitor there is no impact to the structure, scale, or dynamic of the resident NCO team.

Agreed, never had a problem with collaborative activities - ranks were respected in both directions.

Just to revive this, I’ve had a CCF Sgt Transfer over to the ATC. All that has come over from Westminster is his his date of birth. Anyone else had this?
Many CCFs will enter the absolute minimum data they can get away with in Westminster, and only put in more data if needed for e.g. a camp or course.
As CCF(RAF) units will be juggling a school MIS (e.g. Schoolbase, ISAMS), BADER SMS, and WESTMINSTER, it shouldn’t come as any surprise that they are a bit reluctant to do triple data entry. However, the much promised data API for transferring cadet information from WESTMINSTER to BADER is getting close to being useful at last (about 10-15 years after it was first promised).
