Our sector commander is telling us we can parade again.

How are people getting told? not seen an email or IBN or other announcement.

RAFAC seems unable to do anything quicker, but the Sea Cadets, Army Cadets and every other youth group seems to have been faster.

The timeline started on Thursday evening I understand, with MOD wide guidance going out. That’s when the meetings and producing a coherent IBN should have started. But 4 days later, we’re relying on word of mouth and ACC to understand what’s going on.

For what its worth, ive seen some framework/paraphrasing/draft notes of the IBN…theres alot of “waiting for advice from air command” on it

Eta on ibn?

For events relating to the funeral or proclamation we need to get approval from the higher ups. I don’t know of anyone invited to anything locally so I don’t know how difficult it is. All other pre-planned training is on without approval required.

Source please? Lots of events pending here

Can’t we just say sod it & ask the Princess of Wales to make a phone call? Only a matter of time before a volunteer does it.

I think we are the only cadet force with a royal as an honorary commodant

Same here. “IBN pending, but this is the relevant part of what it’s going to say, we don’t know about xyz though”

Yay for consistency? :thinking:

Given some CCF RAF sections operate as part of timetabled curriculum, how does that work with the stop order? Are they to be stood down and effectively have an extra free period? Who knows?

I think they just crack on.

Due to machinations of the CCF they are technically under primary Command of the Army & then HQAC 2nd. If there is a conflict of orders they comply with the Army or whatever the head decides,

Its out

Unfortunately too late for us!

Good IBN overall actually. Really can’t see why it needs to be OS though. At least it’s properly marked! (Although no OS in the title! :wink: )

Too late for us to parade tonight. Also interesting there is no mention of not parading on the 19th? :thinking:
